Hickory Lodge is a secluded gem with easy access to anywhere you’d want to go! We brought the family dog and met up with our college student to spend Thanksgiving together. We enjoyed a trek in the woods and hung out around the fire pit. House was clean and well-stocked. Would definitely come back. Thank you to the host for sharing your beautiful property with others!
Had a great weekend during peak season to visit Boone and surrounding areas. The house was great and we had no problems. The host messaged us and was available if needed. The drive to the property is secluded and parts are steep, just to be forwarn. Driving through areas like that is nothing new for us so we didnt mind. Overrall it was great and our kids 3 and 6 loved it!
Property was exactly as advertised. Great outdoor spaces to explore, great views, amazing star gazing all night. We will definitely visit again.
Four of us stayed here for a long weekend. This home is in a beautiful and remote location. We had no problems with the home it is very well stocked and the host was excellent.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Aubrey was fantastic to communicate with, she even checked in on us during our stay to make sure we didn’t need anything. The house was clean, had everything we needed, was close to Boone/West Jefferson. We will definitely be staying again!
We really enjoyed our stay - the space suited our family so well. Comfy beds, very homey feel, beautiful view, large kitchen and dining area. Would love to stay again.
Very clean and cozy overall, rooms and amenities are wonderful and kitchen-dining room area is amazing! I give thia place 5 stars and will definitely stay again
This was our second time staying at Hickory Knoll and it was great !! Cheak in is easiest ive ever done, its well stocked, plenty of room for a large family!! We will definitely rent again for next year. Beesley Family
Every year our family goes to the mountains to cut down our Christmas tree. This cabin was absolutely beautiful and had all the comforts of home! We had a wonderful weekend. The driveway is very steep as we were told. Got a little scared but it was so worth it!
The house was great. Renters need to be warned about the driveway getting there. One way, washed out and all-wheel, 4 wheel drive just about MANDATORY in all seasons. once we got there everything was great however. Sheets in the bunk room weren't all that clean as they had some pet hair on them. I took pictures but it's hard to see. Not that great of a deal to us however as we threw blankets over the sheets and went on about our business. Neat house though and the owners were there and very quickly responsive to questions that we had.
We had a great time with family and friends. Plenty of room for everyone and very comfortable. Property is just as it is listed. However, would definitely need 4 wheel drive for winter months.
We would definitely rent this property again
I met several college girlfriends for a rendezvous weekend at Hickory Lodge. The cabin was clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed watching the sunsets on the front porch. The location was remote, and the road was rather narrow and steep for us city folks, but the destination was worth it.
Awesome place to stay for a long weekend. Only 10 minutes to Boone, even closer to a grocery store. It was a perfect jumping off point for hiking, rafting, and sightseeing. Our dogs loved the place as did our family. Aubrey is an excellent host and the house is delightful. Trust her when she says you need all wheel drive. Driveway is steep but still did it with a Honda CRV. Recommend this place for anyone interested in disconnecting from email and spending time with family.
Sweet, older cabin with a great view from the super front porch. This property was the best equipped of our prior rentals. There were even supplies to prepare and enjoy s’mores by the backyard fire pit. We were in the area to attend a bluegrass festival and plan to rent it again next year for the festival weekend.
Aubrey was the best host! Her property was the perfect place for our spring break vacation and offered more than we could have ever hoped for! She is extremely responsive to messages and so super helpful and kind. We also loved being able to bring our pets as they are a part of the family. This property was so accommodating and beautiful and in just the perfect location. I highly recommend staying here! Bring an suv to make it up there; we had one 4wd and a jeep Cherokee and made it up just fine. Can’t wait to come again!
