Beautiful outdoor space, Great location

The yard was very pretty, the location was central to walking to town, a restaurant across the street was nice. Parents with 2 adult kids and each had their own bedroom/space. It was nice to have a kitchen to make a meal, and just be together and not spread out among hotel rooms. Onsite washer/dryer was very convenient after hiking so we could do a few loads of laundry before we left for home. We didn't know there was a rental space below us, or behind us- we thought it was a separate home, but it worked out fine. It was a nice trip.

Our Fall R&R in Blowing Rock

We really enjoyed our stay here in this wonderful downtown getaway. The place was immaculate, and the owner really put a lot of love and care in all the decor - inside AND outside. Everywhere we looked, there were unique eye-catching details. She even had some Halloween decorations up. The yard was beautifully landscaped and well maintained. You can't beat the location. Just a short walk to Main Street and anywhere you wanted to go in the town of Blowing Rock. The truck seldom left the driveway the whole time we were there. We would definitely stay there again.

Excellent Location and Wonderful Home

This home is in downtown Blowing Rock. Its name, "A Stone's Throw", is apt, since it is in walking distance of shops and restaurants in the town. The host was extremely friendly and welcoming. Her restaurant recommendations were excellent, and we discovered that Blowing Rock and Banner Elk are definitely foodie destinations. Our two therapy dogs accompanied us, and loved the host, the house, and the walkable town. Highly recommend this home for your next mountain getaway!

Fantastic I'll be back

We were attending a family reunion and had 5 adults and 1 child. The place was warm and inviting with all the details from fire pit, to everything in the kitchen that you needed. It was spacious but cozy. We brought our dog and it was wonderful to have a fenced in yard and access to a big field in the back. WE LOVED IT!

Fantastic house

This was a great house and perfect location for my family trip to Blowing Rock and opening weekend at Tweetsie which my boys love. We loved walking to downtown to eat and play in the park. House was quiet, clean and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend to others and use again in the future. Thanks!

Spring Break 2024

We loved the uniqueness of this home. It had plenty of room for our family of five and our two dogs. The location was perfect. We loved that we could walk downtown and enjoy restaurants and shops. The fire pit was a hit, as the weather was perfect to sit outside and make s’mores and hang out. We would highly recommend this property for your stay in Blowing Rock!

Beautiful property in perfect location!

This was property was everything we needed for a wonderful Thanksgiving getaway! We walked everywhere we wanted to go because of its great proximity to Main Street. The home was beautifully decorated and was so cozy. The kitchen was well stocked and allowed us to make Thanksgiving dinner together. Karen was super responsive from booking through the trip. We’ll definitely be back!

Few days in the mountains during Fall

The cabin is decorated to create a warm and welcoming ambiance. It has so many details like the old wood doors with metal doorknobs and key holes. Reclaimed wood and material throughout. Many of the rooms reminded me of my grandparent's farmhouse. That night, snuggled under the warm quilts....I reminisced of all those wonderful summers spent on the farm because the bedroom so reminded of my old room. It was comforting and enjoyable. The exterior landscaping, porch, and yard are equally maintained for an enjoyable experience. We loved the firepit at night. Once the metal covering is removed, simply turn on the timer. Instant coziness. It was quite chilly that night, but we were warm by the fire. We enjoyed all the seasonal decorations inside and outside. Unfortunately, we needed to return home for personal reasons. Karen was very accommodating. I believe she is an excellent host and offers a great property for guests to enjoy. I will comment that old houses make noises due to normal conditions of aging. Such as old floors creaking. That is the experience. The antiques will charm you while the modern plumbing, fixtures, and kitchen will pamper you.

Great experience in downtown Blowing Rock

Right downtown yet quiet, we stayed there with our dog, who also liked the place. It's comfortable, convenient, has a cool gas fire pit, and everything works. We love going to Blowing Rock and it was a great home away from home.

Great location in downtown Blowing Rock

Pros: Perfect place for those that want to be in the heart of downtown Blowing Rock - you can walk to everything! 10 out of 10 walkability score Cons: weak wifi if you need to work, however Hellbender (across the street) has a great wifi connection and grabbed coffee and worked over there in the morning - used family wifi hotspot in the evenings. Also - walls very thin. Could hear downstairs renters.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Diamond

Host profile image
I'm a financial advisor living in Chapel Hill, NC. This started out as a hobby and has grown to a beautiful collection of five star downtown properties. I enjoy buying distressed properties and transforming them into luxury short term rentals that are well thought out, beautifully appointed and furnished and clean...did I mention they are spotless?

Why they chose this property

This property is the premier location in Blowing Rock, It is located on Sunset Drive, steps from Main Street, across from The Best Cellar and Hellbender, both wonderful restaurants and of course The Inn at Ragged Gardens, where music on the lawn is a Friday night ritual all summer long. While everyone coming downtown struggles to find parking you are all set with our private parking area.
