About this property

GREAT Location Near Blowing Rock


Rocky Meadows Cottage by the Pond is a charming cottage that my husband and I proudly offer as a short-term vacation rental. Nestled in a peaceful mountain setting, the cottage features access to a scenic one-acre pond shared with guests of Cottage by the Pond and Rocky Meadows Cottage on the Ridge. The pond provides a relaxing spot to enjoy nature, watch wildlife, fish, or simply unwind by the water.
Located just 3.5 miles from Main Street in Blowing Rock, you'll enjoy easy access to local shops, restaurants, and attractions while still feeling tucked away in your own private retreat. The cottage is only minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and conveniently situated just off scenic Highway 221 on the way to Grandfather Mountain.
Families will love the opportunity to pitch a tent along the pond's shoreline for a memorable camping experience, while outdoor enthusiasts can explore the adjacent woods and nearby hiking trails.
For those seeking the perfect combination of seclusion and convenience, Rocky Meadows Cottage by the Pond offers a peaceful mountain getaway close to everything the High Country has to offer.

About the host

Hosted by jennifer poarch

Host profile image
"Rocky Meadows" has been in my family since around 1929. My fathers' great aunt Minerva Walker Goldsmith "Aunt Bea" purchased Rocky Meadows around 1929 in order to spend summers away from the heat of Palm Beach. Aunt Bea was known for her modernist watercolor landscape paintings. She developed a love for the mountains and sold property to her friends, one being Phillip Moose, and established Artist Alley. My father built this cabin with very little assistance in 2006. It took him 2 years to complete.

Why they chose this property

This cabin is close to town but provides a feeling of seclusion and privacy.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, pet friendly, beautiful mountain setting, outdoor stone grill, gas grill, bonfire pit next to pond, fishing dock, close to ski resorts and restaurants
