About this property

Entire place

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

Breathtaking View - Fabulous & Well-Stocked Kitchen

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.***

Loved being on the top of the mountain with a beautiful view of Grandfather Mountain! The location felt central to everywhere we wanted to explore. Mary is a gracious hostess and the condo is immaculate and comfortable. I wish we’d planned to cook because the kitchen is well stocked and the deck and grill set up would have made for the best sunset dinners. We hope to be back for a longer stay.

This property is beautiful with stunning views of Grandfather Mountain. Every aspect was 5 stars - communication with owners was prompt and attention to detail from cleanliness to the well stocked kitchen (coffee bar, water bottles in the fridge) and the welcome basket (so thoughtful) was far above anywhere we have stayed in Boone! The owner provided guide book was very helpful - recommended dining, hiking, shopping! Truly - Mary & Doug have provided a peaceful and beautiful retreat. We highly recommend and will definitely return.

The Red Tail Nest is an amazing property and one of the nicest properties at which we have stayed. Check in was super easy and the host (Mary) had everything set up for us. The views of Boone and the surrounding areas are amazing! The property is even nicer in person than the pictures show! Everything was super clean and very well organized. Great location with easy access to Grandfather Mountain, Boone, and Linville Falls. Overall, we had an excellent time and hope to return again soon!

Family summer vacation

We loved this property. The check in process was so easy (which was appreciated after a long drive). And after walking into the property the first thing you see is that view! Beautiful and better than the pictures. The property was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. It is clear that the owners put a lot of thought and care into making this property feel like a home… and it does. The welcome book that is there for guests has a lot of great information including recommendations for restaurants. We took several of those recommendations and honestly did not have a bad meal out! We were so thankful after days of hiking, biking, and atv riding that we had this place to come back too!

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!
