About this property

Family Getaway with Magnificent Views

Welcome to Deerwood Retreat

Deerwood Retreat is a peaceful getaway with long-range, layered, and expansive mountain views, including a view of iconic Grandfather Mountain. This home's magnificent views can be enjoyed from almost anywhere inside and out. Choose your view from multiple decks where you feel like you are standing on the edge of the mountaintop or inside right from the comfort of the living room couch. The house is situated at 4,700 feet above sea level and offers the coolest summertime temperatures in the area, which can be experienced from the choice of three different decks. In the wintertime, you have the choice to snuggle up to either the indoor or the outdoor wood-burning fireplaces.

This house is perfect for a romantic getaway or the entire family. It includes a bunk bedroom with a door that leads to the secret stairwell accessing the upper beds! The property boasts a miniature cabin/treehouse built on the deck for children. The backyard will transport your children into a life-size, magical fairy garden with wood bridges, pathways, toadstools, wildflowers, and more for hours of exploration right on the property.

Deerwood Retreat is centrally located as it is a short drive to Sugar Mountain, Beech Mountain, Banner Elk, Boone, and Blowing Rock. Guests have access to the Seven Devils tennis courts, Otter Falls Trail, and miles of hiking trails at Grandfather Mountain Park and Linville Falls. The home is just up the road from Hawksnest Snow Tubing and Zip Lines, and fishing enthusiasts will find some of the best trout fishing available at the nearby Watauga River. Go gem mining and fishing at Grandfather Trout Farm or plan a river trip with Foscoe Fishing Company.

Please Note: For security purposes, this home has a security camera along the driveway.

* This pet-friendly home is equipped with an extra large dog crate and a heavy-duty dog ramp.

The positive experiences that we had this home were the beautiful view from the living room and the back deck, truly breathtaking. The outside play area is fantastic, our young children loved it. The hot tub was clean and great to use after a day out. The location is hard to beat, close to grandfather mountain and the other local attractions. We were however very disappointed in the cleanliness of the home. One of our children has a severe dust allergy, therefore when we book rentals cleanliness is really important. We started referring to the home as a dusty heaven, it had amazing views but the home was covered in thick dust. As an example, right after arriving we opened a curtain in the kitchen so we could see the view better. We were smacked in the face with a cloud of dust from the curtain, we then opened the porch door in effort to air the dust out, but a gust of wind kicked up dust that we quickly realized was layered on every surface. We turned around to find our kids playing tic tac toe in the dust on the window sill. The house had clean bathroom vanities, toilets and showers but it was obvious that nothing else had been touched. Even after a cleaning crew was sent back out there was still so much dust that we couldn't use ceiling fans as it kicked up too much dust. I hope the house gets deep cleaned prior to the next renters, it has so much to offer...without the dust!

Beautiful View
The property has a beautiful view of the mountains! I cannot stress enough that this property is on top of a mountain! There are switchbacks up in a few different places. We had a bit of snow while there an were glad to have 4 wheel drive foress than an inch. The house was nice. The cleanliness of the house was a bit disappointing. Surface level was fjne, but there was a thick layer of dust on picture frames and shelves. The bunkroom was perfect for our kids and gave them their own space. The hot tub was wonderful. All in all we enjoyed our stay!

Great Mountain Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Deerwood retreat. The house was perfect for our family of 5 and every amenity that we needed was available. There is so much to do in the surrounding area, I couldn’t think of a better location to stay. We look forward to returning soon!

Holiday Mountain Retreat
Our family enjoyed every bit of this home and the views are incredible! It has everything you need for a visit with family and pets, including an extra large kennel, plenty of dishes and cookware, and a great fireplace (pick up wood and matches). A few things to consider when preparing-the home is on top of a very steep, windy hill which meant that there was completely different weather. We had snow and colder temps never indicated in any weather app, creating gorgeous wintry views and a little sledding down the driveway. But keep that in mind when traveling because we came across many different vehicles struggling with the snow and ice, even with well paved and graveled. Our 4 wheel drive had zero issues. The primary bedroom is on the main floor and the other rooms are downstairs, something to consider for family members with less mobility. Make reservations during the holidays for activities because they book up quickly-sledding, restaurants, Wilderness Alpine Coaster (so fun). Would highly recommend, just heed the warnings for appropriate vehicles!
