This was the most adorable place and perfect for two to four people. we totally enjoyed our stay here. And the host was very accommodating with having a last minute guest. Very happy we found this gem instead of a hotel for our daughter's graduation at App State.

What a gracious host and a most lovely property! We enjoyed the seclusion! It was absolutely silent at night. The kitchen was well-stocked, the bed was comfortable, and the deck was perfect with a great.view of Grandfather Mountain. We lacked for nothing.

Very clean and cozy! Nice porch and rockers at the studio, but best view of Grandfather is from the "summer house" (which is behind the main house). Very convenient location for hiking in Moses Cone and exploring both Boone and Blowing Rock.

This is a small but very beautiful place to stay! 4 people can stay comfortably but with little privacy due to everything in one room other than bathroom. Owners are absolutely great to deal with! Very clean with small gestures from owners like muffins on table some drinks in fridge and shampoo and conditioner in shower! 10/10 We absolutely loved this place will definitely be back!

What a delightful studio. Very clean and comfortable. Loved the bakery cookies, the stocked coffee bar, and stocked water and soda! Plenty of comfy linens. The studio was secluded, but conveniently located to town and ski lodges. We had a wonderful stay and hope to return in the fall. I highly recommend the Badger’s Den.
