About this property
"Go on a Wine Tour "- Rennovated private oasis central to Boone, BRock, Banner.
This Side of Paris is Axios Charlotte top 10 pick as your home away from home that captures the style of High Country living with a sophisticated element of contemporary modern living. The house is nestled in the quietness and beauty of nature, but within a short drive to all that Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk have to offer. The minute your vehicle makes the entrance to the long gravel path, serenity embraces you with a warm welcome in the summer months. The upper gravel parking area gives you access to a set of ascending steps that leads to the house. Additional parking is available in the upper gated asphalt driveway. The house sits on an acre lot surrounded by nature. Evenings are wonderful for outdoor dining on the King's Table in Wilderness Sanctuary, one of three gardens; followed by an evening marshmallow roast by the fire pit. If you travel to stay during ski season, Sugar Mountain Resort and Beech Mountain Resort are within short driving distance to the house. We recommend your vehicle is equipped with four-wheel drive as snow may fall at any time. If you enjoy fishing, there is a river at the bottom of the drive. The House: This 900+ sq foot cozy cabin sleeps up to 5 people (extra air mattress in the living room.) The house is comprised of two bedrooms, one bath, and a spacious living area. The updated kitchen is fully equipped to dish out good meals. If a rainy day settles you indoors, the smart t.v. provides entertainment or may beckon you to surf the web. Wi-fi is readily available. You are renting our private home, therefore, we ask that you agree to our rental agreement prior to booking. Check-in is any time after 3 p.m. If you need an earlier check-in time, please communicate the arrangement with us via email. We will accommodate requests as best as we can.

Robert. Thank you so much for thought. We are so glad you felt a home at our cabin in the woods.
This is a public review that everyone will read about your experience.
Stop your search for the perfect place to stay for you and your partner (or even a family with 2 small children). TSOP is cozy and charming while at the same time you get luxury European chic!Hate Hotels? Then TSOP is your STOP! Want to get way from noisy tourists and college students and busy streets, but want to be a short drive away from it all? Then settle in This Side of Paris.
First this was our second time staying. We absolutely love this property. The location is great. Host is the best. Everything is beautifully decorated and so clean. You will not be disappointed. You see pride of ownership.Pauline
Everything about our trip was amazing. The Host was most kind and very responsive. The home was just what we wanted, and I will be staying there again. Everything was just as it was described. The location was great. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wonderful guests and would highly recommend to future host!
Charming home in great location with easy access to Boone, Banner Elk, Valle Crucis and surrounding areas. The home was well appointed and very comfortable. We hope to return soon.
Our 4 night stay at “Go on a Wine Tour” cabin was very comfortable. Location for the activities we did was perfect. The cabin itself was clean and cozy. A little disappointed that the fireplace in the cabin was not working while we were there. Would definitely return!!!!!

Beautiful accommodation!
Very lovely cabin, inside and out. We had everything we needed for a quiet weekend for two. Close enough to area attractions to drive in every direction. Had the pleasure of seeing local wildlife.

About the host
Hosted by Rina Norwood
I am an artist and interior designer who enjoys the quiet side of life. My husband and I purchased this cabin for the purpose of creating a restful place in which to retreat when life gets too busy. Our hope is to share this beautiful property with people who enjoy High Country living and long for a quiet time to rest their soul. We have invested sweat, countless hours, and a ton of love to make this house inviting for us and our guests. If you choose to stay, our goal is to make this cabin your home away from home! We are a phone call away if you have questions. Other than a quick text or phone call to welcome you, your stay at This Side of Paris will be as private as it should be. Follow us on IG @thissideofparis for more info, reviews, and photos.
Why they chose this property
Our property is a quick drive to downtown Boone, Banner Elk, and Blowing Rock, yet it is quietly tucked away for long quiet days on the property. Hiking trails are a short drive from the cabin. For an evening of fine dining, there are several restaurants in the area that won't disappoint. There are also plenty of things for the kids to do around the property. There is fishing down at the bottom of the road, gem mining on Hwy. 105 and of course Grandfather Mountain never fails to delivery gorgeous views. In the winter, Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain are a short drive. Follow us on IG @thissideofparis for more photos, reviews, and info.
What makes this property unique
We offer the best of both worlds. This cabin offers seclusion yet close to shops, restaurants, and activities in and around the surrounding communities of Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk. Follow us on IG @thissideofparis for more photos, reviews, and info.
