Easy to find, even in the dark. Minor difficulty with the lock but host talked us through the steps. Great location near Blowing Rock and Blue Ridge Parkway. Very clean and well equipped. Comfortable as home. Wonderful views including spectacular sunrise and undercast of valley fog. Haunting October train whistles from Tweetsie Train were an extra treat.

Family Holiday

We loved our time here! Check in was easy, the cottage was clean, comfortable, and met all our needs. Great location - so close to the ski mountain and In between both Blowing Rock and Boone for dining/shopping. The owners were easily contacted regarding any concerns we had. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Needed a break

My girlfriend and I had to watch my 7 month old grandson for 11 days and we realized we are too OLD for an infant... . He was a joy to watch but she did a majority of the work. I told her we were going to the mountains(we live in Eastern NC). The property was incredible. The view from the deck was breathtaking. We WILL be going back. We needed the quiet time and it was so quiet and peaceful. Thank you for a beautiful place to stay.

The location was great. The condo was well stocked and clean. Making breakfast for 5 college students was really easy. The condo had parking for 2 cars. I would rent this unit again. The view off the deck is stunning.

Great space

We had so much fun. One morning we woke up to snow flakes outside our balcony! The view was incredible and the floor plan was perfect for our 2 families. We enjoyed the open living area but also appreciated the split floor plan at bedtime.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Bateman

Host profile image
We are an active family of 4 who enjoy all the outdoor activities the area has to offer. We've been vacationing here for years, see above photo taken in 2001. Our kids are both in college now!

Why they chose this property

After spending a few summers vacationing in Blowing Rock, my parents-in-law liked the area so much, they purchased this condo in 2001 as their summer home. It became a tradition for our family to come visit them each summer and we have many happy memories here. So last year, when my in-laws decided they were getting too old to make the trip any longer, we decided to buy it from them and continue the tradition. This is the first time it has been available to rent. If you decide to rent from us, we hope your family loves it here as much as ours has!
