Welcome to "Alpine Ridge of Boone" – your next mountain retreat in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains! Nestled on over an acre of private paradise, our recently renovated home offers a spacious haven just minutes away from Downtown Boone, Grandfather Mountain, Tweetsie Railroad, and all the attractions of the North Carolina High Country.

Key Features:

Space & Comfort: With over 2200 sq feet of meticulously designed space spread across two stories, our home invites you to unwind in style. Enjoy the stunning mountain views from the extra-large deck, kick back in the living room with a 55" Smart TV and fireplace or explore the game rooms featuring arcade-style fun and a vintage video system, featuring games the days of nintendo, super nintendo, and the original Sega.

Pet-Friendly: Bring along your furry friends! We welcome up to 2 dogs, with a flat-rate pet fee of $150 (non-refundable) at the time of booking.

Convenience: Benefit from keyless entry, private parking, and the ease of a fully equipped kitchen with a gas grill for delightful culinary experiences.

Living Room:
Your favorite spot awaits! Enjoy the mountain view, ample seating, and a cozy fireplace during the fall and winter months. The 55" Smart TV provides entertainment, and deck access lets you soak in the natural surroundings.

Kitchen and Dining:
Perfect for gatherings, our full-size dining room accommodates six guests, with additional seating in the kitchen and game room area. The fully equipped kitchen features a coffee bar with both drip and Keurig options (coffee & K-cups provided), along with essential appliances for your convenience.

Bedrooms:
Discover comfort in our well-appointed bedrooms. The main level hosts the master bedroom with a king bed, and an attached kids' room with a twin/queen bunk bed. Upstairs, two king bedrooms await you. Each bedroom boasts a smart TV and a ceiling fan for personalized comfort.

Bathrooms:
Two full bathrooms with tub/shower combos (one on each level) and a half bath on the main floor ensure convenience for your stay.

Game/Movie Room:
Entertainment abounds in our game and movie room on the main level, equipped with a 65" Smart TV, air hockey table, shuffleboard table, and a selection of cards and board games.

Outdoor Oasis:
Experience the great outdoors on our deck with rocking chairs, bask in the cozy ambiance of string lights, and gather around the fire pit with benches. Explore relaxation in provided hammocks, perfect for hanging outside in the mountain air.

Location:
Enjoy the best of both worlds – privacy and proximity to popular Appalachian Mountain attractions. Please note, our semi-steep mountainous gravel road requires a 4WD/AWD vehicle during winter in case of snow and is recommended for warmer months (not required but makes the drive easier). The road the house is located on is a one way loop.

Before your stay, a rental agreement acknowledging house rules will be required to be signed.

Family High Country Getaway
This house and the location were a perfect choice for my family to getaway for a few days and enjoy the NC mountains. My wife, two adult daughters/husbands and 2 grandchildren (and Miniature Golden Doodle) stayed at Alpine Ridge of Boone and enjoyed the Mass General Store, Linville Caverns, Wiseman's View, Tweetsie RR, Grandfather Mountain, Blowing Rock and Boone. We enjoyed eating at Dan'l Boone Inn, The Peddlin' Pig, Mellow Mushroom and The Viscous Biscuit. This location was great and the amenities were great. The kitchen was well stocked, toiletries, cleaning supplies, snacks and a great coffee station were an added plus. The game room is impressive and there was plenty of room for our family. The host was very accommodating and quick to respond to questions. Great house - we will reserve this house again in the future.

House is great! Well-stocked kitchen & baths. Tucked away, but still close to town. Seasonal decor changes definitely make it “homey” which means owners truly want guests to feel like it’s not “just a rental.”

My family enjoyed a beautiful, cozy weekend at Alpine Ridge! The house had everything we needed, the view from the deck was lovely, and the game room was a lot of fun. We enjoyed using the fire pit and making s'mores and rocking on the porch. We even saw a bear, a few deer, and many birds.

Perfect for Family/Friends Trip
This place was even better than the pictures. The house was well maintained and decorated super cute. We celebrated my daughter’s 14th birthday with family and friends. The kids LOVED the garage, game room, and the slope down to the fire pit. This is a great central location to access Boone, Linville, Blowing Rock and all the other towns. We cannot wait to visit again! Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven with us!

We enjoyed our stay very much. This is a comfortable house and easy for us to separate or join together in a room to visit, watch TV or eat. We loved all the wildlife we saw every day. It rained every afternoon, so we went out every morning and came back in the early afternoon and enjoyed our interests.

Tucked Away Mountain Retreat
We spent a long weekend here and wished we could have extended our trip! The layout of the house is perfect for families of all ages. We have three children (2, 9, 11) and everyone was able to spread out comfortably. The game room was perfect to unwind after busy days exploring Blowing Rock, Grandfather Mountain and Tweetsie Railroad. There are several restaurants nearby but we preferred to stay in and make use of the fully equipped kitchen. Great cabin with very tranquil location tucked away on a hillside!

Thoughtfully accommodating. Perfect for families.
This rental is full of unique character and every detail was well thought-out. Keson checked in with us, and promptly responded to our messages throughout our stay. This house is perfect for families - everyone was entertained! The location was very convenient to town, but nestled on the mountainside, allowing for a nice view with plenty of privacy. We also loved that every bedroom (except kids room) had a King Bed. We’ll definitely be booking again, and will be recommending to our family/friends.

Relaxing Mtn Weekend
If you don't have 4WD in the winter / snow months, I wouldn't attempt, but the other 80% of the year- this house is a must! This house had so much to offer it is hard to tell where to start. All bedrooms have comfy king beds with linens provided. The bathrooms have towels, soap dispensers, and even different washcloths for makeup removal. From cotton balls, to hair ties, they were super thoughtful in thinking through what someone might need. In the master there was a dog crate and a pack n play. You can tell the owners have kids and dogs which were our kind of people! There are tons of tvs in the home which makes it easy for kids to go off in other rooms and play. They have a keurig and regular style coffee maker. There is laundry on site and we used it to clean up after snow tubing. The only thing I wished we had brought was a way to cut down more branches for the fire pit. There are a ton of branches to use,

Wonderful House
We loved everything about the house. The game room was great and I was surprised that the split unit could keep up with heating that space (it was 2 degrees outside), but it did. Having 3 king beds was also a plus. My only recommendation is during the winter be aware of the weather forecast. If there is snow on the ground this place is extremely difficult to get to. The owners did notify us that it would require 4wd and possibly chains to get up the hill. I would absolutely bring chains to get up, and I couldn’t imagine how the trip down would go. Overall, this house is well worth the stay. Fun, clean, and, great views. 99% of the year you will have zero issues. Just be prepared to walk a 1/4 mile up a steep slope to get there if you encounter a snowy weekend.
