Relaxing, clean, and peaceful

Enjoy one of America’s best rated small towns in one of its best rated accommodations. Blowing Rock Bungalow is a bright, clean, comfortable, cozy, enchanting, and relaxing to stay. Only 1.5 miles from the center of Blowing Rock and across Goforth Rd from Blowing Rock golf course. Blowing Rock Bungalow is located on 1/2 acre (where deer are seen frequently) above this delightfully quaint town filled with boutiques, restaurants, hiking trails, beautiful parks, antique stores, and a village green where children can play as adults relax under the gazebo.

BRB is minutes away from the town of Boone, home to Appalachian State University, the Blue Ridge Parkway and its vast offering of nature trails. For the bargain shopper, the Tanger Outlet is just a few minutes away. After a day of mountain excursions, enjoy the sunset, wildlife, and mountain views from one of the two back decks or stone patio or curl up with a good book from our library in front of the floor to ceiling windows. Other nearby activities include Price Lake, Tweetsie Railroad, gem mining, Moses Cone Park, the Blowing Rock, Zip Line, and many activities for the whole family.

Additional information:
This bungalow is easily accessible from the circular driveway - with plenty of parking space available. The property extends from the 'bear box' metal trash container on the right of the property (level to the street) to the rhododendron bushes on the left side.

second time stay
This is the second time I have chosen Nancy's place to stay, it's just that good! The house had some minor improvements since the last time I stayed. Love that the kitchen is stocked with everything you would need to cook and the yard is perfect for pets or sitting out and enjoying the view/weather.

Great for Kids and Pet!
This cabin was the absolute cutest and perfect spot for our family that includes 2 young kids and a dog. The layout is great and gave the kids their own space on the bottom level. All the amenities and essentials we needed. Decorated and furnished to be so cozy. We enjoyed the quiet area, close to the golf course, outlets, downtown. We will be looking to stay here again!

Mountain getaway
My young kids and husband took a weekend trip to the mountains, and this property was perfect! It had a great Mountain View, when the fog finally cleared, and was the best Location to anything we needed. The kids loved the spiral staircase, and the house had everything we needed! We will definitely be back to this home in the future!

Lovely home and great location!
We loved our stay at the Blowing Rock Bungalow and would definitely book it again. Located in a lovely neighborhood and close to in-town shopping and restaurants as well as the Blowing Rock landmark. Lots of nice updates and our accommodations were excellent. Easy check in/out. The only negative (and it's a small one) is the lack of a dishwasher. It wasn't a problem since there were only four of us, but might be an issue with a group of six. We used disposable plates and cutlery, and everyone pitched in with kitchen clean up, as we did quite a bit of cooking. Easy morning breakfasts, lunches out during the day, and dinners at home followed by movies and board games. A fun, relaxing weekend for all of us. Thank you for the lovely accommodations, Nancy, and we look forward to another stay in the near future!

Blowing Rock and Boone Weekend
We met our adult daughter and son-in-law in Blowing Rock for the weekend to visit our Grandson, who has just started App State. We found this property to be well located and lovely. The setting and view over the back yard were so nice and private, yet in a neighborhood. The home was comfortable and cozy, well stocked, and exceptionally clean. The owner was wonderful and easy to communicate with; she made our stay a pleasure. I would definitely recommend this home in Blowing Rock!

Comfortable stay with beautiful view!
Very comfortable and unique home with beautiful Mountain Views and a nice yard which our kids and puppy enjoyed. Host thought of everything to make the home cozy and comfortable. She also posts notes all around the home with specific and helpful instructions. The only downside we experienced was the first floor bedroom was very cold due to the cold temps outside so we didn’t end up using that room. Also the water doesn’t get very hot in the upstairs shower but the downstairs shower was perfect due to proximity to the heater. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here.

Perfect location close to downtown Blowing Rock
The unique octagonal home is in a great location with a nice size yard. The home is within minutes of downtown Blowing Rock. The view of grandfather mountain from the living room and off the back deck is great. Perfect for a nice sunset view. Suited for two couples space-wise. We did not use the downstairs area but the spiral staircase could be a challenge for some. Would stay here again.

Perfect getaway in Blowing Rock
I cannot say enough good things about Nancy and her beautiful cabin! The cabin has everything you need and is beautifully decorated. The location is perfect- so close to Blowing Rock and surrounding areas, yet you feel like you have your own retreat "away from it all". We loved that we could bring our golden retriever with us. The dog and our kids LOVED the HUGE back yard and fire pit. We cooked most meals at the home and it had everything you could need. Beds were very comfortable. We had a blast counting all of the adorable black bear decorations in the cabin :) We went to Hawksnest twice for snow tubing, went hiking along the Blue RIdge and had lunch in Blowing Rock. All so easy to get to. Nancy was an amazing hostess. She was flexible with our check in times and even saved us as my son left his school issued computer charger plugged in. She had is shipped to us right away. I highly recommend Nancy and her cabin to anyone looking for a peaceful and fun mountain trip
