Hello! Looking for a last minute getaway? Drop me a message to chat about additional pricing discounts! Sapphire Skies is a spacious, private 6-bedroom retreat in Boone designed for multi-generational family reunions, milestone celebrations, or friend groups who want to gather under one roof without ever feeling crowded. From morning espresso on the deck to late-night games, here is a glimpse of what your stay will look like:
Morning: A Scenic Wake-Up & Chef’s Dream Breakfast: Imagine waking up after a long, restful night's sleep in one of our beautiful, comfy beds, opening your eyes to the sight of the mountain ranges stretching out right outside your window. After enjoying a quiet moment taking in the views, head downstairs to the grand, open-concept heart of the home.
The Fully Stocked Chef’s Kitchen & Open Dining: Fuel the crowd with a morning latte brewed with the premium espresso maker, make hot tea with the electric kettle or bake fresh bread in the bread maker. The open-concept layout flows effortlessly from the spacious kitchen island-featuring 4 comfortable adjustable stools perfect for chatting with the chef - right into our stunning, custom live-edge epoxy 6-seat dining table. Whether you are pulling up a stool for morning coffee or gathering the whole group for a feast, the kitchen is fully equipped with every pot, pan, dish, and utensil you could possibly need to make memories together.
Afternoon: Entertainment & Play for All Ages After a day out, challenge your group to a lively game of darts or dive into a massive selection of interesting board games-including collector's editions of Stranger Things Monopoly or Lord of the Rings Trivial Pursuit!
Movie Night: Catch the big game or a film on the 65-inch Roku Smart TV in the main living space.
The Secret Kids' Nook: A magical, dedicated indoor play area for small children, complete with a cozy play tent, children's games, and cute, whimsical artwork.
Evening: Sizzling BBQs & Stargazing As the sun goes down, head out to the large, expansive decks offering complete privacy and beautiful views. Fire up the outdoor BBQ grill, sit back and watch the stars appear over the mountain under the clear sapphire skies.
Night: Premium, Luxurious Comfort When it’s time to unwind, settle into six beautifully appointed bedrooms designed for the ultimate night's sleep. Each bed is outfitted with premium bedding, plush velvet top covers, and cozy alternative down comforters. To guarantee a deeply restful night, each guest has two fluffy pillows at their disposal. We want you to sink into your pillows knowing that your surroundings are just as serene as your slumber.
We believe your stay should feel as refreshing as the mountain air outside. To ensure Sapphire Skies is always welcoming and clean, our team conducts a thorough refresh between every guest, focusing on a deep, top-to-bottom reset. We prioritize your comfort by using gentle, effective cleaning methods that minimize the use of harsh chemicals, ensuring our home remains a healthy and soothing experience for your family.

The property is extremely clean, well furnished, and the timely response from the host was appreciated. Other than the very high temperatures during the daytime, the home cools down to a comfortable level in the evenings. Our family enjoyed the quiet and comforts of the home. The host was gracious, friendly and warm.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We completely agree that summer comfort is essential, and we appreciate you highlighting both the cleanliness and the comfort of the home. While our listing mentions that we rely on mountain breezes and fans to keep cool, we have certainly taken your preference for air conditioning to heart and are actively exploring options to add a cooling system for future seasons.

Welcome to Sapphire Skies! We’re the 'Triple-A' team behind your stay: Aditi (our Hostess with the Most-est), Alissa (our Sanctuary Steward), and Andreina (our detail-obsessed clean-up connoisseur).
The 'A' initials were a coincidence, but we’re leaning into it! We aren't officially rated by the national association, but we’re aiming for a 5-star 'Triple-A' approval rating from you. We promise to be Attentive, Available, and Always Aiming to please.
As a new team, we’re pouring our hearts into every detail, so you can disconnect from the moment you arrive. We’ve done the prep so you can simply exhale, relax, and enjoy your stay.
Why they chose this property
We first fell in love with this spot many years ago. We were immediately drawn here by the quiet beauty of the Blue Ridge mountains and the incredible sense of peace that comes with being nestled right next to the Art of Living Retreat Center. There is something truly special about this area - the combination of ancient forests and the serene atmosphere of the campus makes it the perfect place to reset. We loved it so much that we couldn't imagine keeping this space all to ourselves, and we’re so happy to share this little slice of tranquility with you.
What makes this property unique
What truly sets this home apart is the energy. There is a profound sense of peace and stillness here that is hard to find elsewhere. We’ve kept the space open, airy, and uncluttered to ensure that the natural calm flows right inside. It’s more than just a place to sleep; it’s a sanctuary for anyone looking to unplug from the noise of the world and simply breathe.
