WINTER NOTE: we are in the mountains and M
may experience unexpected snow storms with difficult driving. The roads are well tended and reasonably clear. Just be advised that snow happens up here!
Centrally located between Boone, Banner Elk and charming Blowing Rock, in the beautiful 750 acre private, gated mountain community of Hound Ears Club sits Cascades of Blessings. WINTER NOTE: we are in the mountains and May experience snow storms with difficult driving. The roads are well tended and reasonably clear. Just be advised that snow happens up here!
The welcoming deck has an Amish loveseat glider and a single seat rocker plus an alfresco dining area for 2. There is a swing under the deck to enjoy some quiet outdoor time by the creek. The entire lower level 700sf suite is yours alone! The private entrance opens to a small family room / kitchenette area with a large TV and Roku for streaming (we do not have satellite or cable channels). Down the hall is a roomy bathroom with a tub shower combo and a very large bedroom with a king bed and cozy reading area. 2 twin size Aerobeds are available upon request for children for an additional housekeeping fee. MAXIMUM 4 guests at this time please, and no more than 2 adults.
Suite includes a microwave, toaster, coffee maker (drip and pods), complimentary coffee, continental breakfast for 2 days and a refrigerator/freezer. All linens and towels are included. All windows look out onto woods with a wonderful cascading babbling creek underneath. Let the peaceful sounds of nature lull you to sleep as you enjoy the fresh mountain air. Please no food left outdoors as we do have bears and raccoons that visit. Never leave children unattended!!
We do not have air conditioning, nor have we felt the need to ever have it installed. We have portable as well as ceiling fans and a dehumidifier in the bedroom. We find that adequate even in deepest summer with the comfortably low to mid 60's night time temperatures. Please enjoy this fresh, clean mountain air!
This suite is quiet and tranquil, with hosts on site to assist if needed. Perfect for a couple’s get away!
Hound Ears is a very quiet, private, gated community with wonderful streets for a challenging, hilly walk or miles of community hiking trails to take in nature and fabulous views just about a mile from the house. Hiking maps are provided for your personal use. Almost every day we see a family of deer grazing near the house and a baby bear and raccoon family routinely visit, so again, no food left outside, please. Unfortunately there are no outdoor play areas for children so we discourage bringing children under 8 years of age.
Enjoy refreshing peace and solitude with close proximity to Boone, Blowing Rock, Beech Mountain, Grandfather Mountain, Linnville and Banner Elk for shopping, hiking, sight seeing and of course, all the notable ski and tourist resort destinations! Only a few miles to Grandfather Mountain, local wineries and breweries and we are only about 30 miles from the Tennessee border.
Activities:
So much to do in the High Country!
Soar through the skies with High Gravity Adventures featuring zip lines, a sky bridge, dual zips and an optional simulated free fall!
Try white water rafting at Wahoo’s Adventures.
How about tubing (winter or summer fun), rappelling or spelunking (aka caving) at High Mountain Expeditions, or go mountain bike riding at Rocky Knob Mountain Bike Park.
Please, no bookings for primary guests under 25. Pets considered with a non-refundable PayPal or credit card fee of $50, please contact host.
Some additional housekeeping notes:
Outdoor security cameras (mainly for critter watching) are in place.
We are a cat friendly family and we live on site in the upper levels, however we NEVER allow our pets to go into the rental spaces. If you are highly allergic to dander to the point of not being able to be in the same house, we suggest you find a different rental.
We will respect your desire for peace and quiet! We want your stay to be enjoyable for you and try to go the extra mile to ensure a wonderful stay. Welcome to the peaceful, beautiful mountain life! Leave the chaos of city life behind, you will never want to leave!
