About the host
Hosted by Cam Bloch
We are a retired couple, Cam from Wisconsin, Graham from New Zealand. We are inveterate travelers and found this slice of heaven on a journey of discovery several years ago. We divide our time between New Zealand, the lodge and adventures across the globe. When not home we love to share our home and the stunning area we live in with others.
Why they chose this property
Powderhorn Mountain is a unique, owner run, resort nestled in the stunning blue ridge mountains. We are surrounded by the wonders of nature, miles of hiking paths, trout filled streams and lakes . Once you start on the scenic ,winding road from the Blue-ridge Parkway, along Elk creek to the resort gate ..take breath, it feels like coming home. You might not want to leave but the lure of the boutiques of Blowing rock, rafting at Hawksridge, the wineries and breweries of Boone, the fine dining and so much more at your doorstep will be strong. Go enjoy the outdoors, the food, the music but the comfort of home at our lodge will pull you back .
What makes this property unique
Your luxury lodge stands out from other offerings ..it sits on a ridge dropping down to Laurel creek. The 1 acre property borders the creek and faces down a forested valley. It is totally private with no houses, roads or other signs on civilization in sight. You will feel it's yours alone and yet a short walk will take you to the club house and all the amenities it offers. Enjoy the gourmet kitchen , premium hot tub, dedicated office space and all the room you need for up to 10 persons .
