    The cabin is quiet and peaceful and being able to walk out and enjoy the pond only adds to that feeling. The host were wonderful and and we loved the local goat milk soap that they left for us. They also provided many little details like games and artwork in the cabin created by local residents.

    As described, this rustic Cottage is next to a large clear mountain pond that has lots of fish. No phone signals and a 4 wheel drive is required in the Winter. Beautiful views, and the Blue Ridge Parkway is 5 minutes away. Overall it was a very relaxing stay. Easy check in & out, and owner is responsive to questions and friendly.

    My family and I absolutely loved staying at the cabin! The cabin was so nice and the owner provided many extras that are not ususally provided at vacation rentals. It was clean, the beds were comfy, the kitchen very well stocked and it was spacious. The private grounds blew us away with the gorgeous pond with water lilies in bloom, several firepits and outdoor furniture. There are two cushioned adirondack chairs on the porch. So comfortable. We are all ready looking at dates for our next visit. Jennifer is an outstanding and conscientious property owner! Thanks, Jennifer!

    This is one of the very best VRBO’s we have ever stayed in. The cottage came furnished with everything we needed and more. You can tell the host really cares about their visitors. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a place near Blowing Rock. The pond, fire pit and horseshoes are a bonus! Great porch for coffee.

    This sweet cabin was the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. Tucked away by a peaceful pond, it felt like a private escape, yet it was just a short drive to the charming town of Blowing Rock. The cabin was cozy, clean, and thoughtfully furnished. The pond was a plus for us since our grandson loves to fish and the porch was the perfect place to sit and relax with coffee in the mornings and just enjoy the cool mountain air. Our host Jennifer was easy to communicate with and even left homemade soap for us! A great little getaway!

    This property was cozy! As a 2BR1BA, I was originally concerned about size, but once arrived, it was PERFECT! Open floor plan for kitchen/living room made great for family time. Hot, hot water for the showers with decent pressure. PLENTY of linens. The property grounds were gorgeous and the lay out of the chairs and fire pit around the pond was even more convenient. Pond is stocked with fish, whom bite rain, shine, and snow!

    We just spent the last weekend at the cabin. It was one of the best family vacations we have had to date. The cabin and the grounds were beautiful, well maintained, and private. The Blowing Rock town itself is gorgeous and charming (and only minutes away from the cabin). Plenty to do in the area with the kids (tubing, hiking, sledding, sight seeing, etc.). As the listing mentions, you will need AWD in the winter. Our AWD vehicle unfortunately ended up in the shop right before our trip so we had to chance it last minute with our FWD vehicle, so that was the only issue we experienced with physically getting to the cabin location (but again that was on us). I highly recommend and we will be returning!

    This home had everything we were looking for. The location was perfect for being able to get to Blowing Rock and Boone. However, we decided to leave early do to the arrival of hurricane Helene. This home withstood horrible wind and rain , but we were safe. The neighbors came and checked on us. Also, Dennis and Jennifer drove 45 minutes to check on us. We will definitely come back to this special home.
