Love the Barn!
The Barn was a great stay! The pics don’t do it justice, it’s so beautiful in person. The location is great. You’re able to get to Blowing Rock and Boone easily. The rooms are huge. It’s almost like 2 houses in one with plenty of room upstairs and downstairs for friends or family. The views of the mountains out back are stunning. Lisa was so easy to communicate with. When we got worried about ice, Paul was there within minutes salting the drive. While the driveway is steep, it’s not hard to maneuver. The kitchen was fully stocked to cook at home. Our dogs loved watching birds from the porch. We’re already talking about a return trip!

Breathtaking views
The photos of this home don’t do it justice. We stayed in the middle of summer and had clear unobstructed views from the lookout deck. There were also beautiful views from the back deck. This property is conveniently located right off the main highway which made visiting downtown Blowing Rock and traveling into Boone very convenient. We will absolutely stay again!

Nice, clean, good location
Great stay near blowing rock. Convenient location near downtown blowing rock and blue ridge parkway. Well kept, clean, good internet. Property owner friendly and good communication. Nice common areas to hang out both upstairs and down. The views were nice too. Proximity to the main road means you can hear the cars going by a bit outside, but otherwise great place and will stay again.

Fabulous views, so convenient, terrific home in Blowing Rock!
Spent a wonderful 5 days at Apple Ridge with friends. The view is wonderful from every vantage point - especially the deck/overlook. The home is absolute perfection with everything you need in the kitchen and baths. Lisa and Paul were lovely, responsive, and easy to work with. I doubt we will stay anywhere else when we visit Blowing Rock/Boone.

Great Holiday
This property was so nice for visiting my son over the Easter Holiday. He attends APP State and this was so easy to get back and forth to Boone. The home is beautiful and comfortable for a family. We loved sitting on the outside deck by the solo stove with the great view. We enjoyed making big breakfasts in the morning is the kitchen and the family room space downstairs and upstairs is nice for watching movies and playing games. The owner was really responsive to all my emails and made our stay very nice. Would definitely stay again and recommend this property. Kim

A RESPITE FOR THE SOUL
This house is beautifully decorated, wonderful mattresses and comfy sheets.
The long range view of the mountains is a spectacular place to sit on the deck with a glass of wine, cozyied up to the fire pit and share memories. We loved that the entire yard was fenced in for our pup to enjoy the outdoors with us. Lisa, we are so glad this property was a available at a time we needed it. We will return’
