Come experience this beautiful and spacious Appalachian Ski Mountain home! Completely renovated in Summer 2017, your search for the perfect home base is over.

Enter the home up a stone path. The great room, accessed from a half-flight up from the foyer, has a stone wood-burning fireplace with a large HDTV mounted above. A leather sectional sofa faces both the fireplace and the sliding doors to the deck overlooking the views, and a dining table for 8 is at the far end. Three bay windows overlook the front yard and allow lots of natural light into the house. There’s room for 5 in high chairs at the island, and the chefs in your group will enjoy preparing meals in the light and airy kitchen with granite counters & stainless appliances. There is a half bath off of the kitchen.

Down the hall is a full bath with a tub & shower and double vanities. Across from that is a bedroom with a twin-over-full bunk bed, and at the end of the hall is a bedroom with a Queen bed. The master suite is also on this hall, and has a King bed, private deck leading to a flat yard area, and a private bathroom with a tiled shower.

Down half a flight of steps is the laundry room. Down another half-flight is a den with leather furniture and another large HGTV. A private room with a Queen bed is off this room. A hallway adjoins the den and has a full bath with shower, and at the end of the hall is a private room with a King bed.

The main level deck, accessed from the great room, has a selection of furniture to relax and enjoy the view. There is also a beautiful deck to enjoy early morning coffees or evening cocktails, a deck runs off of the master bedroom too.

Perfectly located between Boone & Blowing Rock, you and your loved ones are sure to enjoy beautiful Alpenglow.

Beautiful home in a beautiful location! Communication with Host was a breeze and information provided was thorough. We had a total of 9 older adults and a couple of Goldendoodles during our stay. Plenty of space for all and the view from the porch overlooking the skislopes and mountains was second to none! Highly recommended and thank you Michelle!

Great Place!
This was our 3rd time staying at this property! It is a great fit for our family. We were a little disappointed the hot tub was gone. A fire pit would be a nice addition too. We had one problem with what we guessed as a bear getting in the trash but other than that it was a great stay. Great location and views!

Great house with enough room for everyone to spread out. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the view and watching the kids play in the yard. The location is perfect for activities near Blowing Rock, Boone and Granddather Mountain.

Great property for group
We had 4 couples and 3 young kids and this property fit us all wonderfully! The bedrooms are away from the common area which makes it easy to accommodate different sleep and nap schedules. The house is lovely, but simply decorated - we didn't have to be afraid of toddlers breaking things but there was plenty of space to run around. Kitchen was very functional for meal prep. Only minor difficulty was finding the driveway for those arriving after dark. Great experience!

This property was absolutely perfect. Beautiful home, nice yard. We had 12 and all were comfortable.
Beautiful home. Very conveniently located. We took our boys to Tweetsie the first day and they could hear the train from the deck everyday afterwards. Kids 2 to 12 maybe, great location. So many other attractions close by.

The PERFECT Stay
Alpenglow was the perfect home for our Memorial Day weekend trip with three families- including four small kids and one baby! First of all, the location cannot be beat. As ASU alums, we have travelled to the High Country many times over the years and agreed that this location between Boone and Blowing Rock is the best we have found. The gorgeous view off the deck was a highlight of our stay. Everything was clean and neat, and plenty of helpful details were included, like labels, “starters” on essentials like laundry detergent, and even a pack ‘n play! We enjoyed the upgraded appliances and had plenty of space in the main living area/kitchen to spread out. The main floor master has a huge closet big enough for a pack ‘n play which is something we always appreciate when traveling with babies! We have found our sweet spot in a house and can’t wait to return!

We had a great stay! The house was terrific for a large family vacation which included my parents, adult children, and grandchildren. The house has spacious bedrooms and a large greatroom allowing us time to socialize while cooking, eating or just hanging out watching TV. It was close to the ski slopes and downtown Blowing Rock. We had several inches of snow and it was beautiful with fabulous views. I wish we could have stayed longer!

Great location in Blowing Rock
This property is very convenient between Blowing Rock and Boone. The space was perfect for our party of 10. The view was amazing and very convenient to Appalachian Ski Mountain. Our host was very responsive to questions. Our only suggestion would invest in some better mattresses. Otherwise, we loved our stay.
