About this property

Cozy log Guesthouse on Ranch w Mtn Views

The views will take your breath away!! Relax at this unique and tranquil log Guesthouse, which is a studio, that is located near but separate from the Main House, on 10 acres. The Ranch has a classic old time feeling and style, reminiscent of typical rustic farms and old gray barns of Watauga County, in a ByGone era. Although only 10 minutes from the Town of Boone, the property faces north, with incredible long range Blue Ridge Mountain views. There are no lights or sounds from the Town, and you will feel as if you are a million miles away! It is a Stargazer's and nature lover's delight, teaming with wild life, including deer and wild turkey. No hunting, trapping or loud noises are allowed, because of the wild life and because of the horse or horses. The studio has a large kitchen, full bath (with tub and shower), a King size bed, a Queen size air mattress, 3/4 refrigerator, hot plates, toaster oven, and 50 inch TV with Roku.
Bring your dogs (no breed restrictions), and your horses! 'Dry stalls' may be available between April 1st and October1st. Don't forget carrots for Blitzen, a miniature horse, who has big blue eyes and who smiles as he greets guests!
The owner of the larger horses decided to move them off of the mountain for the winter months. But fear not - they will return in the spring. In the meantime, our mascot, Blitzen, will 'hold down the fort'. He is so funny, that you can almost hear him laugh! Please say hi to him when you arrive, and he'll be your best friend!!! Also, soon, he will be joined by a friend, named 'Donner'. So, yes. Guests will be able to feed carrots to 'Donner & Blitzen':)
10 min to ASU and downtown Boone-20 min to Blowing Rock and ski mountains
A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, a stovetop, and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. The bathroom has a bathtub.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Mountain canint
It was peaceful, quiet, relaxing. Didn’t really spend much time there, was gone during days and got back each night around 8. When we where there, it was as it was described. The hosts were very accommodating and responded promptly to any questions.

Cozy and quiet
There were beautiful views on the way up to the property. We loved everything about it except the queen size air mattress had a hole in it so the kids had to sleep on the floor. I would also suggest a few more bath towels but other than that they thought of everything for a nice getaway.

Family-friendly mountain getaway
My family and I had a wonderful time staying at this property over the kids' spring break. The house is spacious, and we enjoyed the lower floor rec room. The fireplace and hot tub were also a huge plus. The beds were comfortable. Don't expect the house to be perfectly clean. It was good enough where it needed to be (linens, tubs, toilets). We would definitely visit again.

Almost Heaven
Clean, quiet and convenient to Blowing Rock and Boone. I wasn't aware the cabin was actually adjoined to the main house... a little separation would have been nice. It lacked an outdoor seating area to enjoy the view or to star gaze. Overall it was more than adequate and the horse, donkey and miniature horse were very friendly. Thanks for having us.

Quiet and peaceful farm getaway
Had a lovely time in the mountains. The horses, and Dinner and Blitzen were lovely, and the deer too. The cabin was comfy, and best of all no fireworks to terrorize my Bella. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful sunset and quiet stay. It was close to town, but far enough up the mountain to not hear the traffic. A peaceful stay.

Sweet quiet get away
The one room cabin was very clean. It was unseasonably cold outside but there was a great little space heater which made the stay oh so comfortable. I truly enjoyed being so far up the mountain and away from the busyness of the highway. Thank you for such a nice place to stay relax and sleep.

We had a wonderful weekend here! We got to explore Boone our first day (only about a ten minute drive) and then spent a lovely rainy day back in the guesthouse. Blitzen and Donner were lovely and we so enjoyed being so close to nature! Would love to stay here again!

Misleading
Very uncomfortable. The farm was not cared for and groomed as in the pictures. A shambles. The cabin was not as the pictures show. Was worn. The smell was foul, in the walls, floors, chairs pillows etc. there was no service for my phone and my family couldn’t get ahold of me. I felt nauseous and had a headache. I left and had to drive a half a hour away before I could call VRBO because I could NOT stay there. Very bad and unfortunate experience.

Clean, cozy, comfy and scenic!
The guest house was perfect for my husband and I and our 2 small dogs. The cabin was very clean and welcoming and the bed was super comfortable. We enjoyed the view of the horse pasture from our window as we ate breakfast. I have some difficulty walking (use a cane) but had no trouble getting around the area. Our hosts were very gracious, and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Beauty and serenity
This was just what I was looking for! Beautiful views, quiet, birdsong a gentle space. Very clean, very thoughtful hosts, a sweet donkey, Donner, and a playful pony, Blitzen. I was always back before sunset to enjoy the view from the large window... and it is a very winding road which I didn't want to drive in the dark! But nature's nightlife is better than any town could offer!

Wonderful views n cozy cabin with one bed, not 2, but it worked out and didn’t spoil our stay!
Beautiful! What an experience! Just Best friends making memories! The vistas were breathtaking on the trek up the mountain! We can’t wait to do it again! Thought there’d be two beds, a king and queen… Lucky we are like sisters because there was only one bed,, but it was a huge King size bed so it was like two beds! Didn’t spoil OUR stay, tho. The donkey and little horse were friendly and greeted us at the gate! Hated to leave !

This sweet, quiet cabin in the country was my perfect spot during my leaf peeping in NC. Everything was neat and clean. The property was beautiful and quiet. The stars were amazing! I would have slept outside if I'd had a warm sleeping bag. I felt very safe and couldn't have been happier.
