What an incredible place to stay, 5 star all the way. Multiple spaces that will entertain a whole family, cosy, efficient, super clean. We were able to enjoy Blowing Rock, Boone close location and even went to Sugar mountain. Pool table and Pac man video was a hit for the adults, entertaining for sure. Fully stocked kitchen and coffee to sit and enjoy incredible views of Grandfather mountain. Will return for sure.

Amazing stay!

We were so happy with our stay here! The amenities were wonderful, and the cabin provided almost everything we could’ve needed. There was lots of space to spread out, which worked great as two couples with little babies. The view of the mountains was excellent. The kitchen is well stocked (no need to bring salt and pepper!). Plenty of seating in the dining area, good blankets available, and lots of games in the basement. Location was convenient to Boone, Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, and other towns. This cabin is really close to Grandfather Mtn and the trails too. The host was very communicative throughout the stay and very helpful. Hot tub was a fun item too! We’ll be back.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to the host for an amazing experience renting the house in the mountains. The house was incredibly cozy and well-equipped, making us feel right at home. All the furniture and appliances were in excellent condition, and the views from the windows were simply breathtaking! I especially want to highlight the care and attention of the host. She was always available and ready to help with any questions, which made our stay even more comfortable. I highly recommend this house to anyone looking to enjoy the tranquility and beauty of nature in the mountains. Thank you so much for everything, we will definitely be back!

We absolutely loved our weekend getaway at Ruth’s place! Cleanliness was top notch. Host communication was great and Ruth provides lots of information prior to arrival and on property. location is perfectly located between several towns with lots to do. Downstairs game room was perfect for the kids to play. Lots of wildlife on property, was really cool to see.The hike to Beaver falls was a 1 min drive and pretty easy for anyone without mobility issues.

The house was awesome. Spacious and clean. If you fill it up, it's pretty cheap considering the amenities. The game room downstairs is great, between the pool table and the PacMan game and the hot tub is great too. Ruthie, our host, was always quick to respond to any questions. The check in process was super easy and the house was easy to get to, with ample parking. All in all, a great stay.

Great location and beautiful home

Our family had a lovely stay here and would DEFINITELY stay here again! The location is perfect between Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, and Boone. The house is exactly like the photos. The view is beautiful. The owners were quickly responsive with any question i asked whether it was about groceries stores or best gem mining location. We made s'mores in their fire pit, relaxed in the hot tub, played Pac-Man (which I loved so much and watching my 3 & 6 year old try it too), hiked Otter Falls which was so close to the house, and got to see deer right outside. I will definitely be booking this place next summer for another lovely vacation away from the Florida heat.

Great place

We had a fantastic stay! The house was very clean, in a great location, and the owners were incredibly helpful and welcoming. They provided clear directions, checked in on us, and made sure we had everything we needed. The layout worked perfectly for our two families — one set of parents on the top floor, another on the main, and the kids had their own space downstairs. It was well stocked with everything we needed and made our trip super comfortable and easy. Highly recommend!

Wonderful stay!

The home was clean, welcoming, well stocked, and very straight forward with how to use and work everything. The host was extremely helpful and super easy to reach. My only complaint is really minimal - it rained a good bit during out trip and the porches are not rain proof. HOWEVER - the hot tub/grill/outdoor space is rain proof. Otherwise fantastic!

Great views, Better Accommodations!

This was a great place to stay! We have stayed at a number of locations and this one literally has it all! The kitchen was stocked great, the house has everything you need to relax (hot tub, great porches with views, etc) and for the kids to enjoy as well (games - board games, video games, pool, and more). The owners were also great about communication. Always available for any questions.The beds were comfortable and the rooms were large. Having two living rooms was another added bonus. The only downside was the stay wasn't long enough, but they never are. Would totally recommend for one or two families - great place to stay and great owners!

This house was the perfect fit for our weekend get away. My family, brother’s family which had smaller children and our mom stayed here for the weekend. The house is perfectly set up to accommodate our teenage children and well as the toddlers. I can’t speak enough about the views! Breathtaking and the home is set up on all levels to soak in the sights! From the porch swing, to the rocking chairs and outside dining! This house was enjoyable from the inside game room that was perfect for all ages as well as the outside areas that had a fire pit and hot tub! House was very clean and had everything we needed!

Best VRBO Ever Stayed At

I would give this place 10 stars if it would let me. To start the host is great and really truly cares about you having the best stay possible. The home is exactly as advertised if not even better. Everything is stocked amazingly from the games, books, baby items to every kitchen utensils/tool you could possible want or need and then some. The views and sunrises were breathtaking and something we will cherish. The hot tub made an amazing home even better with being able to relax and take in the views. We are already planning our trip back to this home next year.
