The place was huge and perfect for big groups. We loved the amount of parking available, the easy access to the neighborhood amenities, and the spacious rooms. The place could have been vacuumed better and the pull out couch beds did not seem to have been opened up & cleaned as we found tissues and crumbs upon opening the pull out. However, we quickly fixed that ourselves and had a great stay. Aside from that, the place was perfect and we would come back again!

Our stay at this house was absolutely great! The house was clean and we were delighted to find it well-equipped with various game activities, which was a huge bonus. The bedrooms were also very pleasant and comfortable. The highlight of our trip was definitely the outdoor premises and amenities, which we loved—it provided a fantastic setting for relaxation and fun. Overall, the experience was wonderful, and the host took excellent care of us throughout our stay. We highly recommend this home!

Everything was perfect. We really enjoyed our stay

Property was perfect for our women’s retreat. Loved that we had a bathroom for each room, that’s very important to a bunch of ladies 🙂 Mike was great and always so quick to respond to any questions I had. I would recommend this property to anyone and we will definitely be back!

Very nice home with everything you need! All the cooking essentials, 2 living room, nice game room, large dining room tables to fit us all in one room was so nice! The fire pit was perfect for the chill evenings. The kids nook in one of the bedrooms was so cute and kept them entertained. Having double / washer dryers were nice as well. Loved it! Only recommendation is some new mattresses and on demand water heater. Other than that, it’s perfect! And we will most likely be back next year!!

An Amazing Stay

Mike’s property was AMAZING. Everything was as described or better. We felt right at home and cannot wait to book again. Just got home and we’re already looking at dates for 2 visits next year. Thanks for everything!

If you are looking to stay around the Boone area and don’t select Mike’s spot, you are doing yourself and family a disservice. Heck, even if you are wanting to go to Miami, Florida… chose this spot instead. 2nd year in a row my friends and I have came here.

This home was everything we needed and more for our wedding weekend. With our previous accommodations falling through shortly before our wedding, we felt blessed to find this home and owner. The house was clean with personal touches and so much space. We fit 20 of our closest family and friends, enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit, and had an ideal wedding weekend. Communication was efficient and seamless.

Great lodge

This is second visit to Blue Ridge Mountain Lodge with a group of friends and this place is just awesome. The lodge is spacious and has everything you need to accommodate a large number of people. The bedrooms are comfortable, the kitchen is the ideal size for cooking meals and the dining area big enough to accommodate the large number of people we had in the group. The firepit area is great which is where the group spends a lot of time together. I am already looking at dates for a 3rd visit in 2026. My friends have all told me I have found the perfect place!!!

Perfect place for a big family gathering!

Conveniently located 15 minutes to Boone, large enough to hold our large family of 16 comfortably. Loved the long live-edge custom tables in the large dining area, well equipped kitchen, hot tubs, fire pit, pool table and games. Coordination with owner was excellent, easy to get a hold of and wanted us to have the best stay pissible. Would not hesitate to rent again!!

This house is just about perfect!

We had everything we needed and more. The kitchen was well stocked, the bathrooms had plenty of towels and toiletries, the beds were super comfy, the game room was a HUGE hit for both kids and grownups, and the pool was right across the street. The owner even provided extra towels for the pool and hot tubs. We had a great time using the fire pit too. Altho some of the Adirondack chairs around the pit were not fully assembled, we really didn't need them since there was ample built-in seating. There was plenty of space for the entire family to be together or hang out in small groups as there were several sitting areas along with the front deck and backyard. What a lovely home to spend a fun week in!

Perfect weekend away

We loved the lodge! It was perfect for a 3-day weekend in the mountains. In the mountains yet close to things to do. It had everything we needed for a group of 9 couples. We really liked that every room had en suite bathroom. The kitchen was well stocked. The outside area was perfect for a fire & enough space in 2 hot tubs for a lot of us. Really enjoyed the woods and hiking right behind the house. Would def come back!

Fabulous Getaway!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin! We brought a group from our church and the accommodations were wonderful. Mike took great care of us and communicated before, during and after our stay. The sledding hill behind the house was a huge hit and a big surprise! We will definitely be returning!

What a great place for our yearly family get together! We had 25 people ages 2 to 78 and there was room for all. Just know you’ll get your steps in at this one, as it is pretty big. HahaThe owner was SUPER responsive and wonderful to all of our needs. There is tons of parking. There are things to do inside and out. There is space to gather all together and space to spread out to be on your own. The tennis courts could definately use a lot of attention, plus they need pickleball lines. But we still used them and were very happy. The pool is great and everything is walking distance. Thank you for a super enjoyable week!
