About the host
Hosted by Larry Ford
We both grew up in Boone, graduated Appalachian State, and still have many friends and family here. After college, jobs took us to Raleigh where we continue to live near our three daughters, husbands, and eight grandchildren.
Why they chose this property
We have rented multiple properties near Boone and decided it was time to have one of our own. We have furnished our home to accommodate three generations who love to cook and eat and enjoy time together. We researched properties for over a year and found this home with mountain views, woods, nearby river, and hiking gives us everything we want. We hope you love it too!
What makes this property unique
We love the covered red bridge entering Sleepy Hollow and the wooded one lane road up the mountain surrounded by rhododendron. The huge parking area at our home leads us to the front door and the immediate views of Grandfather Mountain from the living/dining area and deck and covered porch with wooden swing.
