About the host
Hosted by Mandy Southern
We’re a family that spends a lot of time in Boone for App State, the outdoors, and weekends in the High Country. We host because we genuinely enjoy helping people have an easy, comfortable trip - whether you’re here for a game, hiking, skiing, or just unplugging. We keep things simple: a clean home, clear instructions, quick communication, and the little details that make a stay feel smooth. If you need local recommendations (food, trails, breweries, family-friendly spots), we’re happy to share.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood for The Nutty Squirrel’s Nest because it combines the best of both worlds - close to everything, yet wonderfully peaceful. Just minutes from Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk, the location makes exploring the High Country easy. At the same time, the home is nestled in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood where you can relax, recharge, and enjoy the charm of a true mountain retreat.
What makes this property unique
The Nutty Squirrel’s Nest offers the best of the High Country: convenience and tranquility. Perfectly located between Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk, our home makes it easy to explore the area’s dining, shopping, and outdoor adventures. What truly sets it apart, though, is its setting - nestled in a quaint neighborhood that feels private and peaceful. After a day of exploring, guests can relax in comfort and enjoy the calm, cozy atmosphere that makes our property a unique mountain getaway.
