Tiny House on Top of a Hill: SPECTACULAR VIEWS!

My place, a custom build from HGTV-featured tiny house builder Randy Jones, is on a ridge with unparalleled, 270-degree views of Grandfather Mountain, all three area ski resorts, and on in to Tennessee and Virginia's Mount Rogers. We're located 20 minutes from Boone and West Jefferson, and closer than that to the Blue Ridge Parkway and New River activities like fishing and tubing. If you've considered downsizing, or you just want to give living tiny a try for a getaway, this is the place!

Please note that the reviews for this tiny house before 2020 are from its old location just down the road in Todd, NC. HomeAway/VRBO required me to start a new listing due to the change in address, though I got to keep the reviews. It's the same great tiny house, now with VIEWS!

The tiny house is in a quiet spot on top of a hill with just four other properties (a second tiny house on wheels and two small, stick-built cabins). Alone, the tiny house is good for couples, solo adventurers, families (with a kid or two), and dogs. You can rent the whole mountain top for events. Combined, the four properties can accommodate 16 people.

The tiny house features wifi, a smart TV, a stocked kitchen with a real range and fridge. The spacious bathroom is stocked with toiletries and linens. There is a sleeping loft accessed by steps, no ladder required, and two sofas that convert to beds. The space is cooled and heated efficiently by a mini-split heat pump. There are lots of windows to enjoy your surroundings as well as a deck with a custom bench and table made from reclaimed materials.

In the event of snowfall, four-wheel drive and experience driving in snow is an absolute must to go the last 1/2 mile or so to the house. If snow is forecast for your stay and you do not feel comfortable trying to access the property, you will be offered a full refund. However, if you're feeling adventurous, you could definitely hike the last bit or maybe even catch a ride on a side-by-side ATV.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
This smoke-free vacation home features games, snowboarding nearby, and ecotours nearby. Recreational activities include sledding nearby, rock climbing nearby, and cave exploring nearby.
Guests will find features like wireless internet access and onsite parking.

Back to Nature
This is a cozy tiny home just right for someone wanting to get away from the bustle of town and enjoy the sights of nature. The loft beds add a touch that most kids will be excited about. Adults, too, should be ready to climb up! But if you choose to stay on the lower level, the futon does make a comfortable bed.

WOW this location is stunning!
We might plan a trip to Boone NC just to stay in this space again! It is about a 20 minute drive from downtown Boone, but a very easy one. The instructions for arriving at this location were perfectly handled and very easy to follow. We felt like we were alone on top of a mountain the entire stay and it was magical waking up to. The space was meticulously cleaned and smelled amazing. More than enough was provided for our stay and there is plenty of space inside and outside of the home. There are three other tiny homes on this hill but no one was present the entire stay and I could not find that any of these spaces were listed on VRBO or elsewhere. It would be a fantastic spot for a group of ppl if you were interested in occupying the entire hill, but having it to ourselves seemed so special!

Amazing place for a little getaway. No negative things to say at all. Very cute, very clean. Awesome views. Host contacted me a few times just to check in and always responded super quickly! If you need some time to yourself or with a partner to relax and reconnect I highly recommend staying here. Will be coming back! :)

Great Little House!
Check-in was seamless, house was clean, all appliances worked well....would recommend. This house is located off the beaten path and has amazing views. My son and I were riding the Blue Ridge Parkway on our motorcycles and chose this as a stopping point. We bought a few groceries at a nearby Food Lion and cooked burgers on the grill while enjoying a crazy cool sunset. The views from the deck of this house are simply stunning. Quick note for full transparency: Some of the pictures on VRBO *could* lead one to believe that this house is by itself, but there are 3 more tiny houses on the same property very close to this one. Wasn't a problem for us at all but I could see it being an issue if you happen to have unruly neighbors renting the other houses. We absolutely loved our stay at this tiny house and would definitely do it again!

Excellent mountain tiny house!
The view is amazing! You do have to take a tiny mountainous gravel road to get there. It is one of 4 tiny houses on the overlook (and it has the best view!). The house is clean. It has everything you need. It’s great to sit out on the porch and look at the mountains. We visited Boone and Grandfather Mountain during our 2 day visit. Highly recommended.

Exactly what I was hoping for
I had been curious about seeing a Tiny House and this didnt disappoint. Everything we needed was included and well organized and the location felt remote yet was only a 20 min drive to Boone which is a lively town. The view was spectacular and the property was shared with only a couple of other rentals. I was also surprised to have decent cellular service as well as wi-fi available. I would definitely recommend.

Amazing Views
This was our first time staying in a tiny house and it was adorable!!!!! We really enjoyed it and the views were amazing. I wasn't expecting other tiny houses to be around us but it was okay and everyone was very friendly. If there is a wish list I wish there was a blow dryer because I forgot mine....lol other than that it had everything you could want or need. They did a great job!!!!!! We will definitely be back next year!!!

Tiny house stay
My sister and I stayed at the tiny house and we absolutely loved it! The property was beautiful and flourishing with plants and wildlife. The house was clean and comfy. We slept with the windows open most nights and woke to birds chirping! It was like a fairytale. The tiny house was stocked with essentials and the host did an amazing job communicating and ensuring that we enjoyed ourselves. I’m so thankful we found this little spot and will definitely come back again one day!

Perfect Getaway
I cannot begin to express how much I needed this trip and loved staying at this tiny house. I actually have stayed at David’s other tiny house in Todd a couple years back for a quiet girls weekend with friends, so I was excited to see this property as well. The instructions were clear, and the house was well equipped with everything I needed. I had a small mishap on my second night there, but David was able to get back to me quickly and address the issue in a timely manner. I spent my evenings reading on the back deck and enjoying the breathtaking views. It was a peaceful getaway from the stress of working nightshift in the hospital. I didn’t want to leave. Thank you for a wonderful time and I hope to stay again sometime!

Gorgeous views
The views are amazing, but the house was too tiny for us. Having difficulty with the stairs made it impossible for me to utilize the loft and the futon was too small for the two of us so my husband slept in the loft and I slept on the futon. We were booked for two nights but neither of us slept well the first night and we felt too cramped in the tiny living space so we left and got a hotel room in Boone the 2nd night. The place was clean and the views were incredible, but it just didn't work for us. Maybe one of the two bigger cabins up there. There were 4 and they're pretty close to each other so not a lot of privacy if they're all rented. David was great though! Sent us a lot of great information on the area and always resonded immediately.

Touch the Sky
What a marvelous place to unplug and reconnect with your soul. I felt like I could touch the sky on this mountaintop that had surround views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Just awesome! Plus, you are minutes away from restaurants, groceries and activities if you want. If it rains or snows, you probably would benefit from a 4 wheel drive or AWD vehicle to arrive. 10/10

Perfect views and space for two celebrating our 30th anniversary. The bed was surprisingly comfy and the crossbreezes through the small windows in the loft were lovely. We enjoyed our morning coffee and breakfast at the outdoor picnic table watching the birds and bunnies and planning hikes for the day. We had everything we needed. Book it!!

This was a wonderful place to stay for a weekend of hiking/visiting Boone. The tiny house was very clean, had a good amount of space for two people, and had a great porch with beautiful views. The check-in/check-out process was easy and we had clear communication and instructions from the host. We also had a chance for some good stargazing at night. All around great place to stay.
