Lakefront apt, close to Eastman, J1772 EV charger
M. offers a exceptionel nice Appartement which is perfect as well for a longstay. We enjoyed the comfortable bed and the quite environment. M. was extremely helpful in any case. We loved the nice decoration and the great view. We will definitively come back again.

Sugar Ski Townhome - 4 Ensuites - Slopes/Tubing
Levi was a great communicator - location couldn't be better. This property is closer to the lift line and tubing hill than a lot of the parking lots for the mountain. It takes about 2 minutes to get to tubing and 4 minutes to get to the lift, really really really convenient. Having 4 bed rooms with 4 bathrooms was great, place is clean, kitchen has everything you need. Highly recommend, I will be staying here again in the future.

Comfortable Condo on the Lake
We stayed for 2 1/2 weeks. Great location. Nothing we needed was more than 15-30 minutes away even though some destinations were in other towns. Condo was clean and quiet. Enjoyed our stay very much.

Banner Elk 1BR on Lovely Resort
A great location with almost immediate access to skiing and hiking trails! We didn’t use the amenities while there but did see many families enjoying them. A 15 minute ride to Boone and all that area offers was a plus. This was a quiet, corner location with a soothing view of a pond on the grounds out all of the windows. A good sized space to wind down after a full day of adventures!

Krew’s Quarters-Lakefront Sleeps4 on South Holston
Great little place! Thanks

Central, Walkable, Stylish Apartment
Amazing place, modern look, peaceful. A big plus to having an EV charger. Definitively recommended and we would stay here again.

When Pigs Fly Farm
Thank you for a fantastic stay! Listing is detailed and reflects the space accurately. Despite the challenges WNC is still facing concerning hurricane recovery, Kelly went above and beyond to provide a comfortable, attentive and thoughtful stay. The space is well organized and laid out, free of clutter and provides all the comforts needed for a great stay. I visited during the off season so the outdoor spaces were not yet in bloom but I can only imagine how beautiful things are in bloom. Ample area and space to lounge and connect with nature, local recommendations and a perfect balance of privacy and accessibility to local fun. I highly recommend any guest check out the Hearth Glass and Gallery (sign up for a class if you can) and Maryland Earth to Sky Park - both are stunning places. Thanks again!
Waterfront house rentals

Cozy Creekside Cottage in the High Country
peaceful, beautiful with the creek right behind the house! House was clean and Tara was great and wasy to book and communicate with!

Charmer on Creeper & Creek! Walk downtown
Charming farm house nicely updated with all of the comforts, plus nice extras like kids’ dishes and extra coffee pods and creamer to get you started. Kids loved the house, too, especially the bunk beds in the “kids’ room.” Great location with the Virginia Creeper Trail and lovely stream just across the street. Nice walk up the trail to the town park with a playground and picnic area. Leilah was very responsive to any needs and questions while we were there and went above and beyond to locate a kid’s very special stuffed animal that was left and mail it back to us. (Thank you, again!) We had a great weekend and would love to visit again!

Granny's House
Very cozy, everything we needed, will come back if in the area again!

Large, Riverfront, kayak, hot tub, fish, fire pit
We had an amazing stay and thoroughly enjoyed the front yard for all day sledding! The house was spacious - perfect for our four families! Most importantly, the hosts were super friendly and responsive to any questions we had! We will definitely be back to enjoy the river in the summer!!

Moss Creek Waterfront Cabin Boone Perfect Location
I cannot say enough about the DETAILS of this beautiful place! My only complaint is that we were only there for one night, but we will be back! From breakfast items to plenty of towels, it was like going home. This is the perfect little place for a long weekend or a trip away. The host was quick to respond and eager to help always. And the waterfall right off the deck is simply a bonus to everything else. We loved our short stay!

'Got Rocks' 1 acre on Watauga River w/ Gazebo
Another great Winter stay at Got Rocks! We’ve stayed here many times before and we’ve always enjoyed the proximity to the things we enjoy nearby such as skiing, wineries, groceries, restaurants, etc. there is lots of space to spread out, and everything we needed in the kitchen to make meals whenever we wanted. Thanks again Wesley for letting us use your place!

Angel's River HideAway (Riverview & Easy Access
This is the second time we have stayed here. It is very clean and fits all of our needs. Nice to have a grill out back and a fire pit (although the weather didn't work out for a fire this time). I will be back in the future and would stay yet again.

Minutes to App Ski Mt Hot Tub River Front Fire Pit
We loved our stay ! The house was perfect for our family and the boys enjoyed the creek and relaxing in the hot tub! It’s in a great location with easy access to Blowing Rock and Boone with lots to do. Hosts were super responsive with any questions and the house was super clean and cutely decorated for Easter (great touch)! We will for sure be back !

Lakefront Sunrise Deck w/ Boat Slip, Washer/Dryer
Renee's place was a gorgeous haven in Johnson City during our time at the National Storytelling Festival--the home away from home, with a stunning lake, exactly what we needed. Everything was exactly as advertised, only a 20 minute winding drive from Jonesborough, but you never wanted to leave when you saw the sun meet the horizon and reflect across that glassy water. Thanks so much, Renee, we had such a wonderful time revisiting Appalachia.

Chapel Cove Lake Condo
Such a great stay!! Super convenient location and the host was super responsive and accommodating. The condo was so clean and fresh, with really easy check out instructions. We’re already planning to book again!!

Enjoy Mtn Life! Ski/golf/bike from your doorstep
We throughly enjoyed our stay! Loved how close the Ski lodge and lifts were. Loved having a bathroom in every room. The only thing that it needed was maybe a booklet of things to do and and instructions on place, some older ppl like a hard copy!!!

Charismatic Condo in the Cove
Stayed here for a weekend softball tournament in Johnson City. Location was fantastic and the neighborhood was calm and peaceful. The unit was clean and tidy and there were tons of amenities available for us. The beds were comfy and the house felt like home. Would stay again!!

A Charming and Comfy Condo in Johnson City
This place was perfect for what we needed for our weekend! While we didn’t spend a lot of time here, it felt like home when we arrived.

Suite Escape@Sugar Mtn Resort - Walk to Ski|Tubing
Had a fantastic time and being with in walking distance of everything is very helpful especially during the high traffic times of the day.

"Harmony" WALK to Resort ~ BEST area verified!
The most perfect place, especially if you are looking for easy and close access to the slopes of Sugar Mtn Resort. Literally less than a ten minute walk from door to slopes. Super cute, super clean, and has a very cozy feel. 10/10 would recommend and will be coming back!

Ski-in/out 2BR with amazing view overlooking lifts
Nice place in a superb location
