The dining area seats eight and opens to a fully equipped kitchen with full-size appliances, Keurig and drip coffee makers, blender, crockpot, cookware, and serving essentials.

The upper level loft serves as a private King suite with a full ensuite bathroom, Smart TV, cozy sitting area, and a small private balcony—perfect for morning coffee and enjoying the surrounding wildlife.

The lower level is a large entertainment space featuring two sets of twin bunk beds, pool table, foosball table, Smart TV, laundry area, and an additional full bathroom.

Outdoor Living

Community Amenities

Powder Horn Mountain is a private gated community. Guests have free access to the seasonal community pool, typically open from late May through early September. Additional amenities include a fitness center and game room—both in the clubhouse, a playground, paddle boats, a tennis and pickle ball court, a basketball goal, a disc golf course, and fishing in three community ponds or in Laurel Creek or Elk Creek. Fishing in either creek requires a valid North Carolina Fishing License. The community also offers miles of well-marked hiking trails, as well as a campground along Laurel Creek that is ideal for an evening fire, s’mores, or a game of horseshoes.

Location

Gnome Away From Home is located in Deep Gap, NC within the Powder Horn Mountain community. The setting is quiet and rural, yet only about 25 minutes to downtown Boone and Appalachian State University. Banner Elk and Blowing Rock are approximately 40 minutes away. The Blue Ridge Parkway is just 9 miles from the community.

Area Attractions

Powder Horn Mountain itself can easily become your hideout for the duration of your stay, but guests are also about half an hour to skiing, hiking, fishing, horseback riding, wineries, breweries, festivals, Tweetsie Railroad, and year-round High Country events/attractions such as App State Football, sports, and cultural events. From shopping, exploring local galleries and cuisine, spa days and golf adventures, this area offers something for everyone.

    We had a very nice time with family at the cabin. Lots of wildlife around so we enjoyed that during our stay. Susan was very responsive to our questions and very friendly. The cabin had lots of room for our group of five and was well equipped.

    We had a great stay at Gnome Away from Home. The cabin is beautiful and has all the amenities you need. The only disappointment was that the hiking trails in Powder Horn were closed during our stay and this was not communicated with us. But that house is perfect for a mountain getaway. We will definitely be back.
