Daniel took great care of us in this beautiful historic property that has been in his family for generations. Super easy access to downtown Boone, and a gateway to other areas such as Blowing Rock and Valle Cruces. More than enough room and amenities for a romantic getaway. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautifully restored, welcoming chapel. Incredibly convenient to downtown Boone and App State campus. Enjoyed tea by the cozy fireplace; lounged on the comfortable couches reading...we didn't want to leave. Daniel provided everything we could need for our short stay. I can't say enough about the cleanliness and impeccable decor. The photos don't do it justice.

A gorgeous, u pique space unlike anything I have ever stayed in before. A lovingly restored family chapel that has been renovated into a comfortable, airy space for living and sleeping. It was quiet though is really close to downtown Boone. The pictures don’t do it justice.
