Our little 4day getaway was just what we needed-our little "cabin in the woods" was a real respite. It was very secluded & peaceful yet so close to shopping, restaurants, & the Blueridge Parkway! David was so attentive & responsive each time I reached out. I highly recommend our "Squirrely Nut House & can't wait to visit again!
We had a wonderful stay with our furry friend. He wants to live there for ever. The bed is comfy with a full kitchen. A little out of town and up a steep hill then you are in heaven.
We had an amazing time here for a long weekend with our pup in Boone! It’s close enough to downtown to explore, and super peaceful. The hosts were very communicative and accommodating. Would definitely stay again!
Enjoyed our stay. The place was clean and cozy. It was easy to get to once we figured it out. Close to restaurants and shopping. Very quiet and peaceful, even though there were neighbors nearby. The heat worked well and the bed was comfortable. My only complaint was the bed pillows, they were a little flat. Otherwise a very enjoyable stay. I would stay again!
This stay was very pet friendly and in the perfect location in the middle of everything that the area has to offer! The house was very clean, welcoming, and beautiful inside! We appreciate the snacks that were left and the detailed instructions for our stay! We will definitely be coming back!
My husband and I rented this super cute VRBO for the weekend. Very close to downtown Boone and about 15 minutes to Blowing Rock. Host was great to work with and we will be back!
The road into the development was narrow, rough with potholes and sharp turns. Had trouble getting our truck in, had to make 2 3-point turns because turns were too tight. Because it is a basement apartment you willneed to allow for upstairs noise. Overall. It worked for the weekend.
This is truly a cozy little cabin. Everything about the rooms were delightful and comfortable. The only nedgative aspect was the pulll out sofa. the springs and mattress were very uncomforable and need to be replace. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay very much.
The owners are super nice and amazing! They go out of their way to make you safe, happy, and well cared for.
The place is a doll! Super cute little cottage for a nice get away and or a way to escape from all the hussle and bussle. Very quite, dark (great for seeing the stars) and safe.

My husband and I came to the Boone area for my birthday. From the moment we pulled up to this adorable place we both were so glad we booked this location!! There was NOTHING these wonderful host did not think of to make our stay the best. Super cute fire pit outside and the ingredients for S'mores were provided! The cabin was adorably furnished with cute squirrel themes throughout. This cabin is in the best location being close to downtown Boone restaurants and shops. We always travel with our pup and again nothing was spared to make his stay perfect as well. Best of all very clean and safe. The cabin is quiet and peaceful making for a great stay. We have stayed at many VRBO places but this was by far one of the best and when we return to this area will stay here again. Thanks for doing extra! Great trip!
