Beautiful property and cozy cabin. Our boys enjoyed fishing (caught bass), and we enjoyed walking around the pond with our dogs. Spectacular sunset view.
Excellent getaway! Convenient location, wonderful, secluded cabin with a beautiful pond. The hosts are amazing and extremely responsive. They have thought of everything including enough towels, TP, and even laundry and kitchen staples. We all wished we could have stayed longer!
Will definitely come back to this little oasis in the woods. Itâs convenient to all that area has to offer and the property is beautiful. Thanks for a wonderful wknd!
Goodness! The hosts were wonderful and the cabin was neat, tidy and so very comfortable. The view and setting of the house was out of a storybook and I can truly say, I wish I could have stayed longer. I definitely would book this house again.
We had a great time. The cabin was very clean and had everything we could want to use, even fishing rods to use for the pond. We are planning to stay here again next year.
My family and I absolutely loved staying at the cabin! The cabin was so nice and the owner provided many extras that are not ususally provided at vacation rentals. It was clean, the beds were comfy, the kitchen very well stocked and it was spacious. The private grounds blew us away with the gorgeous pond with water lilies in bloom, several firepits and outdoor furniture. There are two cushioned adirondack chairs on the porch. So comfortable. We are all ready looking at dates for our next visit. Jennifer is an outstanding and conscientious property owner! Thanks, Jennifer!
This is one of the very best VRBOâs we have ever stayed in. The cottage came furnished with everything we needed and more. You can tell the host really cares about their visitors. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a place near Blowing Rock. The pond, fire pit and horseshoes are a bonus! Great porch for coffee.
This sweet cabin was the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. Tucked away by a peaceful pond, it felt like a private escape, yet it was just a short drive to the charming town of Blowing Rock. The cabin was cozy, clean, and thoughtfully furnished. The pond was a plus for us since our grandson loves to fish and the porch was the perfect place to sit and relax with coffee in the mornings and just enjoy the cool mountain air. Our host Jennifer was easy to communicate with and even left homemade soap for us! A great little getaway!
My sray at this cabin was nothing short of a real privilege. It was clean, quiet, and in a perfect and serene atmosphere. The cabin lacked nothing. Anything you might need for your stay is provided.From kitchen needs to plenty of fresh, clean linens , and even a pond to fish.The hosts are responsive and friendly. I so look forward to my next stay.
This is by far the best place to stay if you are looking for seclusion and a peaceful setting. The hosts are excellent and communication is easy. Large property and fire pit. Not the first time here or the last!
This property was cozy! As a 2BR1BA, I was originally concerned about size, but once arrived, it was PERFECT! Open floor plan for kitchen/living room made great for family time. Hot, hot water for the showers with decent pressure. PLENTY of linens. The property grounds were gorgeous and the lay out of the chairs and fire pit around the pond was even more convenient. Pond is stocked with fish, whom bite rain, shine, and snow!
We just spent the last weekend at the cabin. It was one of the best family vacations we have had to date. The cabin and the grounds were beautiful, well maintained, and private. The Blowing Rock town itself is gorgeous and charming (and only minutes away from the cabin). Plenty to do in the area with the kids (tubing, hiking, sledding, sight seeing, etc.). As the listing mentions, you will need AWD in the winter. Our AWD vehicle unfortunately ended up in the shop right before our trip so we had to chance it last minute with our FWD vehicle, so that was the only issue we experienced with physically getting to the cabin location (but again that was on us). I highly recommend and we will be returning!
We couldn't be happier with our stay at the Cottage by the Pond, it was really lovely - the cabin was so cozy, plenty of towels, hot water, washer dryer, dishwasher...we got goat milk soap from the hosts, it was just really great! We will be back for sure
This cute little cabin tucked down among trees is idealic. Not only was the cabin a perfect size for my husband and I, but the drive to Blowing Rock was quick and easy. Loved the pond on this property which we enjoyed walking around with our dog. Will rebook this property 100%!
Great place to stay and safe especially staying through hurricane Helene
This home had everything we were looking for. The location was perfect for being able to get to Blowing Rock and Boone. However, we decided to leave early do to the arrival of hurricane Helene. This home withstood horrible wind and rain , but we were safe. The neighbors came and checked on us. Also, Dennis and Jennifer drove 45 minutes to check on us. We will definitely come back to this special home.
"Rocky Meadows" has been in my family since around 1929. My fathers' great aunt Minerva Walker Goldsmith "Aunt Bea" purchased Rocky Meadows around 1929 in order to spend summers away from the heat of Palm Beach. Aunt Bea was known for her modernist watercolor landscape paintings. She developed a love for the mountains and sold property to her friends, one being Phillip Moose, and established Artist Alley. My father built this cabin with very little assistance in 2006. It took him 2 years to complete.
Privacy, pet friendly, beautiful mountain setting, outdoor stone grill, gas grill, bonfire pit next to pond, fishing dock, close to ski resorts and restaurants
