Pet friendly and cozy. All appliances were old and in disrepair. TVs broken and/or non functional. Book via VRBO but tons of emails and paperwork outside of VRBO, including additional nickel and dime payments for pets and firewood. At 800/night, I wouldn’t expect this level of disrepair or fees.

Crazy for this cabin
We had an absolute blast staying at the cabin at River Ridge. It was perfect for our laid back family. We were looking for something with charm and comfort and we found it here. Blue Mountain Rentals worked with us every step of the way making sure that we had everything that we needed. They were very personable and ever present in case we needed anything (which we didn’t). It was a beautiful 20 minute drive into Boone and we explored the ski resorts nearby as well, which were a bit further but enjoyable drives. You definitely need AWD or 4 wheel drive in this area when it snows. Honestly, we could have stayed in the cabin the whole time we were there and been perfectly content. We ordered fire wood and it was ready upon arrival. Sitting around the fire and in the hot tub were my favorite things to do here. The cabin has such a homey, lived in feeling that we immediately relaxed and enjoyed the vibe. We would stay here again if we ever make it back!

Christmas Vacation 2022
We always go tot Tennessee for our Christmas Vacation with the family. This year we chose the Boone area! So glad we did. I was able to find this beautiful cabin, in a beautiful gated community ❤️ The pictures on the website does not do it justice! The home was absolutely beautiful and well taken care of! We have four children ages from 4-10 and they loved all the board games, hot tub, the fireplace, and just being able to see the beautiful view from the balcony. Thank you for a great stay!

Relaxing cabin getaway
The cabin is just as pictured in the listing. Eventho it was just the two of us that stayed, the cabin would have been spacious enough for our 3 teens and both fur kids to have enjoyed as well. The kitchen has plenty of cookware for whatever level of cooking you'd like to do. We were able to watch some wildlife near the cabin and enjoy morning on the back deck with beautiful views of the NC mountains. Close enough to downtown Boone, NC for dining and shopping.

Great Mountain Getawat
My family and I rented this cabin to escape to the mountains for a weekend during the COVID pandemic. The cabin was cosy and nice. We spent a lot of time on he back deck enjoying the view (including some deer that stopped by daily). Some concerns we had were the reliability of the internet connection and the hot tub jets weren’t working. But I passed on my concerns and the rental company was very responsive. Definitely recommend renting this cabin.

Need a more substantial water heater.
Overall the location and property was OK. Furniture was in need of repair especially the kitchen chairs. Main issue was they advertise they can accommodate 10 people, However after 2 people had showered the remaining 7 of us were showering in freezing cold water. I will say the kitchen was sufficiently stocked with plates etc for all the guests.
