This was a great proprty close to town. You do need a four wheel drive or at least a higher car for the driveway. The bedrooms had plenty of space and the couch was a great place to relax. The owners were good communicators and we had a great time. They have put a lot of attention to detail to make the place really nice. Thanks for a great weekend.

The host was wonderful! The house was beautiful, clean and exceptionally decorated! Very nice accommodations. The only negative is the driveway. It’s steep and narrow. We learned how to back down and did find though. Would love to stay here again.

Conveniently located and super well appointed house. We stayed while in town for the horse show & it's an easy drive to downtown Blowing Rock. Super peaceful having coffee on the deck & even saw a couple fawns. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, etc and we had everything we needed. Beds are super comfy & there's plenty of extra blankets & pillows if you need anything. Ellie the host is super responsive and helpful. Thank you for sharing your home!

We loved this house and it was perfect for our family! The location was great for us and we would stay here again if in the area! The kitchen was well stocked and made cooking so easy while we were there! The deck was so nice for morning coffee and I saw a deer and her baby walking by one morning! Beds were all super comfortable and the host has thought of so many extras everywhere in the house!
Loved this beautiful home. Brand new and excellent host. Our only issue was getting up the hill and down the drive. It snowed a few nights in a row and we were not prepared for the steepness of the road to the home especially after snowfall. If you go in winter/snow times definitely be prepared to have a 4WA drive. But it was a dream besides that.

You need a high profile vehicle to get in and out of the driveway, but everything else was great.

Great get away with a view
We booked this house for a birthday weekend over Valentine’s Day with family and friends. The house is amazing with a great view, perfect furniture and decor. The owner even put out valentines decorations throughout the house for us. Nice touch. Communication was above and beyond. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. We will definitely be staying there again!

We greatly enjoyed our stay in Rhododendron Ridge! The home was well appointed and just a quick drive away from downtown Boone/Blowing Rock. In the cold weather, it was just lovely to sit by the fireplace and enjoy the excellent views.
