Thanksgiving Getaway to the mountains

Hickory Lodge is a secluded gem with easy access to anywhere you’d want to go! We brought the family dog and met up with our college student to spend Thanksgiving together. We enjoyed a trek in the woods and hung out around the fire pit. House was clean and well-stocked. Would definitely come back. Thank you to the host for sharing your beautiful property with others!

Very comfortable house - works well for a large group. The only draw back was the road up to the driveway- fortunately we didn’t meet anyone on the road since it’s not one I would want to back down.

Amazing views!

Review We loved our stay at Aubrey's property! The driveway is definitely exciting but the house and views are spectacular! The house has everything you need- plenty of shampoo/conditioner/body wash, towels, blankets, box fans and ceiling fans, games, books, comfy beds, cozy covered porch to sit on and listen to the rain, and a great fire pit in the backyard to watch the sunset while you enjoy roasting marshmallows. Easy check in process, and Aubrey was available anytime we messaged. I wish we could have stayed longer!

Best Kept Secret

We loved this place. It was very roomy, clean, and dog friendly. There was nothing that wasn't provided that we lacked. The owner was super accommodating and gave us all the information we needed up front. Is the driveway steep? Yes. Will you need 4-wheel drive? Yes. However, its not the kind of climb where you feel like your going to fall off a mountain. Such a beautiful place and very convenient to all of the surrounding towns. We will absolutely stay there again.

Family Tubing Trip

We loved the place and the seclusion of the home. It had rained a lot the week prior which made the driveway a bit difficult to get up. I would recommend a 4WD or AWD. The owner was great to stay in communication with us to make sure we got in and the place was well worth it when we got there. Everything in this cabin that we needed!

You have complete seclusion and a long range view. The property is exactly as described. Aubrey is a wonderful host, extremely responsive and helpful. Everything you need is at the cabin, very thoughtful. There is even a hiking trail that takes you up to the Blue Ridge Parkway and a short walk along to the overlook to connect to the Mountain to Sea Trail. Highly recommended. Thank you Aubrey!

Perfect remote getaway

Had a great weekend during peak season to visit Boone and surrounding areas. The house was great and we had no problems. The host messaged us and was available if needed. The drive to the property is secluded and parts are steep, just to be forwarn. Driving through areas like that is nothing new for us so we didnt mind. Overrall it was great and our kids 3 and 6 loved it!

Great house-access somewhat challenging

The house was great. Renters need to be warned about the driveway getting there. One way, washed out and all-wheel, 4 wheel drive just about MANDATORY in all seasons. once we got there everything was great however. Sheets in the bunk room weren't all that clean as they had some pet hair on them. I took pictures but it's hard to see. Not that great of a deal to us however as we threw blankets over the sheets and went on about our business. Neat house though and the owners were there and very quickly responsive to questions that we had.

I appreciate your patience since Hurricane Ian came through that weekend and the heavy rain made driving the mountain road more challenging. Thanks for the feedback on the sheets and we'll have our cleaners pay them extra attention in the future!
