Location
This house is located in Powder Horn Mountain in Deep Gap, NC.We are about 20 mins to Appalachian State and main street in Boone but only about 13 miles. We are about 18 -25 miles to all the ski resorts or about 35 mins. Blowing Rock and Banner Elk are each about 35-40 mins from our front gate. The Blue Ridge Parkway is about 7 miles away with an access point at the top of Elk Creek Rd on old 421. The closest grocery store is Food Lion located at the intersection of 421 and Old 421 across from Tractor Supply. There is RV camping and horseback riding near by at Leatherwood Mountain Resort. Elk Creek is just outside the front gate of Powder Horn and is a state stocked trout stream this is an anglers paradise make sure you get your fishing license but you will find it is some of the best fishing around! Local wineries and breweries abound including Appalachian Mountain Brewery, Booneshine Brewing, Grandfather Vineyards, Banner Elk Winery and so many others. So much to do!!!! Make sure to also check out the Lil' Hidden Creek Gem mine located about 1 miles past the back gate of Powder Horn. Call ahead and they will get mining buckets ready for the little ones!
Side Notes
We have a local Doula who's information is included in your check in instructions. If you need cribs, high chairs, or other kid items including baby monitors, baby gates etc she is a great resource and will deliver directly to the house prior to your arrival. (based on availability) We do recommend getting groceries prior to getting to your house either in Boone, Lenoir or North Wilkesboro.If you do want to do grocery delivery we recommend Lowes Foods at New Market Center in Boone.

Fitness center at the clubhouse, playground, fishing in three community ponds,(please bring your fishing poles!) No permit is necessary in the community. Miles of community hiking trails with well marked signage and a map in your binder. Make sure you check out the campground that sits on laurel creek and is the perfect spot for a night time fire pit and s'mores or a game of horseshoes. Maybe an afternoon picnic!There is a tennis court and half basketball court and new in 2022 a small 6 station frisbee golf course that you can access at the post office (bring your frisbees!)

Great Birthday get away weekend place! Easy drive into Boone. Weather was wonderful & the covered deck was perfect to watch the sun & clouds and listen to the creek. But having a fenced yard for our furbaby was the topping on the cake! Thanks for sharing your lovely mountain home!!!

Great Vacation Rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a great house! We have stayed at a few different houses in this neighborhood and this one was by far the best. The best part was how comfortable the furnishing were (including the bunk beds). The fenced in yard for our dogs was worth it's weight in gold. We enjoyed the deer we saw in the yard and drinking coffee on the screened in porch. Very relaxing trip and can't wait to go back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Laurel Creek Cottage was a great place to stay for a few weeks in the mountains. The house provided helpful information for the stay and enjoying the surrounding activities and local events. We could hear the waterfall below the cottage from the screened in porch and it made for a peaceful place to relax after hiking, shopping and other adventures. And with the great support from the property management we never had a worry or an issue.
