Charming Boone Getaway with Pool, Hot Tub & Mountain Vibes

3 Bed | 2 Bath | Pool | Hot Tub | Screened Porch | Chiminea | Close to Hospital & Appalachian State | Easy Winter Access

Looking for a cozy mountain retreat that won’t break the bank? Welcome to our quirky, character-packed ranch home in Boone, NC—just minutes from Appalachian State University and Appalachian Regional Hospital, with flat access roads (no steep hills!) for worry-free winter travel.

This is not your cookie-cutter cabin. Built decades ago and full of vintage charm, it has some creaky corners and weathered tiles—but what it lacks in polish, it makes up for in soul.

2 Futons for flexible sleeping arrangements

Living room:

1 King bed

1 Twin bed

2 full bathrooms

A large vintage kitchen stocked with essentials, tile countertops, and all major appliances

Hand-built bar with rustic stone & wood details — perfect for casual meals or a nightcap

What You'll Love Outside:
Private in-ground pool (seasonal use) surrounded by lush mountain landscaping

Hot tub on the screened-in porch—perfect for year-round soaking

Cozy chiminea for fireside chats under the stars

BBQ grill & patio seating for outdoor meals

Easy access driveway (flat, no steep hills—ideal in snow season!)
