Photos and Description of the Blowing Rock vacation house rental
3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, sleeps 7

Wildberry Cottage is located on four gorgeous acres and has two beautiful stone, wood-burning fireplaces, and a hot tub on the deck for summer or winter use. The recreation/laundry room is located downstairs in an un-carpeted area with its own entrance and large windows looking out on the mountains. The kitchen is well-stocked with cooking supplies, utinsils and equipment. If it's not there yet, just let us know and next time it will be!

A charming stone and grass pathway welcomes visitors to the front deck which looks out over the Blue Ridge Mountains as far as the eye can see. The hot tub is on the side deck overlooking the back rock gardens, and nestled in an area surrounded by acres of forestland.

A stay at Wildberry Cottage promises peace and beauty.

Villages: Blowing Rock is a charming village with major tourist appeal, especially in the summer and fall. This is your best bet to find unusual shops and good food.

Boone is mainly a college town, but one with a lot of character and interesting one-of-a-kind shops and restaurants. You’ll find the most unusual and irresistible boutiques on King Street, and typical chain stores and restaurants on the main 321 strip into town.

Linville offers a few eating and shopping experiences, but if you cut back into the Banner Elk area via 105 out of Linville, you’ll find some good eateries.

Go all the way in to the town proper of Banner Elk and you’ll find a funky little ski town with a few galleries and restaurants. Louisiana Purchase is the best place to eat there, and almost famous.

Notes: Wildberry Cottage has two beautiful stone, wood-burning fireplaces, and a hot tub on the deck for summer or winter use. The recreation/laundry room is located downstairs and contains an outside entrance and beautiful windows looking out on the mountains. This area is not carpeted, however, so is considered 'unfinished'; the rental price reflects this so this is truly a 'bonus room', one not included in the rental price. There is a dvd player in the rec room and local TV reception (12 channels), and a dvd player and TV for movies in the master BR . We want to help make your stay relaxing and easy. If it's not there yet, tell us and next time it probably will be! Though elderly and infirm visitors would certainly be welcomed into our home, the walkway is stone and a bit uneven. The rec room and upstairs bedrooms are accessed by stairs only. During the winter, we advise that visitors park at the top of our steep driveway unless they own a 4-wheel drive vehicle.

Wildberry Cottage--AMAZING

5 of 5
Submitted: June 20, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
My husband and I stayed here for the first time in November 2011 for his 50th birthday. We fell in love with the place! We just recently returned from our 2nd trip there and are already planning our 3rd one!
The cottage is even more beautiful than the pictures show. The owner is wonderful and has thought of every single detail to make the stay there incredible! The inside is so charming, cozy and inviting. The outside is beautifully peaceful and the view is breathtaking! This has become our "permanent" get-away spot because we couldn't imagine there being anyplace more perfect! We LOVE it. Can't wait to go back.

Bye, bye hummingbirds!

Submitted: September 12, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
...We love the house! It is the most romantic spot in NC. We spend most non-hiking time on the deck, watching the mountains.

...We leave tomorrow am. I am very sad. We loved every second of being here! Hopefully, we will be able to return next year. It has been perfect all month here. I keep trying to picture it in winter. It must be stunning.

Absolutely Gorgeous!!!

My husband and I stayed at the Wildberry Cottage for out honeymoon in October. We fell in love with this place as soon as we arrived! It's very secluded, which we loved and has a wonderful view of the mountains. Has a beautiful large yard with lots of little seating areas and places to have a fire. The home is beautiful and very well stocked with everything you might need, very comfy. it was hard to leave on the last day of our stay. This place is full of whimsical charm! I would recommend this to anyone and we look forward to going back many many times.

Cozy Rustic Cottage with great location and View

Submitted: October 26, 2010 Stayed: October 2010
We had a wonderful time this past weekend. Your cottage had a great location and view. You have renovated it well.

It was unique experience for us, as it had a nice rustic feel but had all the modern amenities.

Your cottage will be on our short list when we visit the mountains again.

Bring your GPS… it is very difficult to get here so make sure your car has good brakes.

Some things that owner did not mention in her description that we found to be fabulous was that the house is literally within 5 minutes of the Blue Ridge Parkway and also Grandfather Mountain - wonderful destinations w/ hikes that are suitable for all ages. There are some great mountain roads to travel to get to Blowing Rock and Boone.

We brought all our food and house was properly stocked. All cooking supplies and utensils were provided but you may want to remember to bring paper towels, dish/dishwasher/laundry soap, and a cooler, charcoal and plastic cutlery. Lots of ice, coffee filters and cleaning supplies were provided.

The house was also set up so you could have your children play safely outdoors. There was a small tree house that was made for an older child with a platform for the kids to look out over the mountains. Katherine advised us not to go into it. There were 3 different areas to have a bonfire –really fun. Bring items to use for the campfire.

My daughter has major issues with allergies (airborne) and we limited her exposure to the basement. We could tell a dog was there at some point (from the dog hair) but she kept sneezing and getting little hives on her neck when she went down there to play. It is not “finished” - the floor is dirty/dusty and concrete. The basement has the pool table, television, and laundry.

This house is not a “sterile” property that is brand new – as she states. All towels and linens were fairly new and bathrooms were clean.

We had some trouble with no electricity in the master bedroom and dirty dishes when we arrived. It was easy to leave the owner messages on her cell (she is in VT) so make sure you have that number handy. She didn’t give a credit for these items and no one came to “pop the breaker” but I am sure if we bugged her enough, she would have asked a local friend to do so.

The hot tub was very clean and situated on the deck in a way that is private. The cover was very heavy for two adults. Feel free to email me if you have questions about the home!
