About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

App State Graduation Availability - Book for Summer Now - Grandfather Profile

At 3606 feet, the "Red Tail Nest" condo can be found sitting high in the treetops much like the nests that Red Tail Hawks build to give them a commanding view of their landscape. You will find yourself in awe of the beauty of the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains before you, centered on the iconic profile of Grandfather Mountain. This beautiful farmhouse chic condo with unobstructed views from every window will invite you to relax and enjoy the luxury of an unhurried lifestyle. Linger over coffee, tea, or wine on the covered deck admiring the lush beauty around you.

*** As we head into the winter months in the mountains, all-wheel drive is strongly recommended, even though the roads in Echota are well-maintained and plowed.***

Luxury with a view!

Our stay was nothing short of amazing! The communication from Doug and Mary was prompt and very clear. The property was extremely clean and organized. The beds and furniture were very comfortable and just felt like HOME from the moment you stepped onto the entrance deck! They have paid attention to every detail. The best part was the changing views of the mountains throughout the day! We spent a lot of family time enjoying the cool weather, playing board games and cards by the fire. Making dinners in the stocked kitchen. She even had a croc pot which was helpful in having chili ready after a day out adventuring! We enjoyed the back balcony and mixed in some walks around the property! The kids favorite part of the trip was snow tubing at Hawksnest. We found a few playgrounds to also get energy out in Seven Devils and Blowing Rock. Enjoyed some coffee from Bald Guys Coffee in downtown blowing rock. We cannot wait to come back and enjoy a different season in the mountains enjoying God’s creation!

Fantastic Stay for Thanksgiving and anytime

My family and I stayed in this beautiful condo during Thanksgiving. It was beautiful! The condo had everything we needed and the condo's view of the mountains was breathtaking. The furnishings were classy and so cozy. Even though the condo was on top of the mountain, it is still very close to shops and restaurants. We definitely will come back!

Red Tail Nest is spectacular. It is comfortable and beautifully decorated with attention to small details. They have thought of everything. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to grill on the deck while enjoying the spectacular mountain view. Furniture and beds were very comfortable.

My family of 5 spent Thanksgiving week in this beautiful condo, which was immaculately clean and incredibly well appointed. It appeared that someone put a lot of thought into making sure that guests had available to them all manner of things that might come up as necessary or just pleasant during a stay (we even found batteries when we discovered the remote needed new ones!). The mountain views were stunning and the property extremely comfortable and spacious. We had a fabulous time just hanging out, reading and playing games, enjoying time together, and of course loved getting out as well. We downloaded the trails app recommended by the owner and it lead us to take some of the most amazing hikes we'd ever experienced. Fabulous trip! We'd return in an instant!
