Great Experience

I love coming out to Boone. In the past I’ve usually stayed at hotels in town, but this time I wanted to get a better mountain experience. This cabin was perfect. It was large enough to accommodate a family of 7 adults and one 2 year old without issues. They also allowed dogs, which was a huge plus. It was close enough to town for us to enjoy walking King St and around campus, but far enough away to get the peace and quiet of the mountains. Also, the hot tub is amazing and comfortably fit 4+ people. We will definitely be back.

College reunion

We had a group of ten best friends from App Stare that hadn’t been together in 15 years. This was the absolute perfect home for us. We honestly could’ve stayed at the house the entire time and we would’ve been happy. With that said, the drive to downtown Boone was easy and the location was convenient. All of the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, the shared living spaces were super cozy and accommodating for a big group of girls. Every view was spectacular and the hot tub was a hit. We loved it and will definitely be back again!

Cozy, yet spacious, home for multiple families

The house was great, everything was nice and tidy, down to the “felt like new” white towels and linens. The decor was beautiful and made you feel as though you were “at home.” The open kitchen and family room allowed for fun fellowship among the 8 of us there. The views were amazing and there is a lot of space on the property to go outside and have fun. This next part has NOTHING to do with the house, but I feel led to warn others…. It just so happened to snow about 4-5 inches while we were there and the wind gusts were high in addition to it being 20 degrees. The road that leads to the house is private (thus not maintained by the county with snow plowing or salt) and STEEP at the beginning. One night as we were returning home, there was a car stuck in the snow in front of us on the private road, so we could not go forward. We eventually slid down the road backwards as we attempted to back up, to make way for a tow truck. We then had to be towed. And yes, we were in a 4WD truck. So, I say all of that to say, if you are not 100% sure your tires are able to drive on ice, I do not recommend you try to go here when there is a chance of snow. I will say the neighbor that helped us was a blessing! He said he has “studs” in his tires. He saw us walking from our stuck vehicles and drove us the 1/2 mile we had left to go to get back to the house. I would go back to this house, but not in the winter. I’m too paranoid now!

Beautiful home

The Ponderosa was a beautiful place for our Christmas get together. The night of check-in a winter storm blew in, with about 5 inches of snow, strong winds of 40+ mph, and a wind chill of -30. The house stayed cozy and warm. Five days later all main roads were clear, but the gravel road to the neighborhood was still snow covered and icy. Our AWD vehicle made it with no problem, but our children's front wheel drives did not. If there is anything on the ground, you really need 4-wheel or AWD. Be prepared! Overall, it is a lovely home with beautiful kitchen and wonderful fireplace (wood is not included, so bring a lot!).
