Firepit, Hot Tub, Game Room, Views, Pet Friendly

This mountain farmhouse-style home blends classic warmth with fresh modern touches, giving guests the perfect mix of comfort, character, and fun. Spend your mornings rocking on the deck with coffee, your afternoons exploring Boone, Banner Elk, hiking, fishing, river tubing, or the ski slopes, and your evenings soaking in the 6-person hot tub or gathering around the fire pit patio overlooking the mountain view. Outside, guests can enjoy ambient deck and patio lighting, a new BBQ grill, deck rockers, outdoor seating, and a welcoming setup for dogs with a doggy gate on the deck and room outside to roam. Inside, the home opens up into a bright and comfortable main living area with vaulted ceilings, a large gas fireplace, a huge 75-inch TV, and updated seating made for movie nights, football weekends, and cozy evenings in. The home is just as practical as it is inviting, with two dining areas that seat up to 12, a beautifully updated kitchen with new appliances, and thoughtful extras that make guest stays easy — including an espresso machine with espresso supplied, Keurig and drip coffee options, spices, baking sheets, cookware, and the kitchen essentials guests actually use. Off the kitchen is the laundry room with a connected half bath, plus direct access to the deck and hot tub, which makes getting in and out after a soak simple and convenient. For families, groups, and longer stays, the layout works beautifully. There’s a main-level primary suite with a King bed, and spacious double vanity bath. There is also a separate dedicated office/flex room with a desk , pullout sofa, and stocked with children's toys and books, making it ideal for remote work or a quiet spot to set up the Pack 'N Play.
