Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Watauga County

We loved Sarah’s place! Everything is exactly as advertised. It’s completely private yet accessible.

We had an amazing stay here! It was clean and the area was beautiful. Everything was exactly as described. We saw deer in the yard and fish in the stream! It was super relaxing and perfect for a vacation.

10/10 Beautiful, clean, private home in Valle Crusis. Our favorite part was the idyllic views from the back porch! Hosts were extremely communicative. Be aware you have to take your trash to the local recycling center (it's close to the property).

Yvonne’s farmhouse is absolutely amazing! Exactly as described and was surrounded by beauty! It took me back in time when I grew up in Boone. Beds were very comfortable, couches and chairs were amazing, as well! Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed! The farm fresh eggs, juice and milk (along with all the goodies on the bar) was such a sweet and thoughtful touch to this already amazing home! We had such a wonderful time here! Thank you so much for being an absolute amazing host!! 10 plus stars! ⭐️✨ ✨ 💜🤍

This house was a perfect spot for our trip to Boone. It had everything we needed for our baby and kids as well as our dog! Ian was responsive when we had questions about the house. We absolutely come back here for our next visit to Boone!

Iris and Clay were the most responsive hosts I’ve ever had. Beautiful and serene location with ample space to explore or relax. Don’t miss out!

Kelly and Caleb’s vacation home was an absolute dream for our family! We had the best time and were able to enjoy some peace and quiet and we also enjoyed exploring surrounding areas. The home was cozy, clean, and peaceful.. I loved that it was family friendly!! Thank you both for allowing us to stay!

This was our third time staying at the Solar Farmhouse and we were reminded again why we love coming here so much! The house is beautiful, the yard and surrounding views are so peaceful, and we love how remote the property feels while you’re still just 15-20 minutes from Banner Elk, Boone, or Blowing Rock. There are few things better than sitting out on that porch with a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening and watching our two little boys have the best time playing in the creek! We can’t wait to go back!!

Awesome spot! Accommodating, clean and close to everything we needed. The giant projector was a nice bonus. Thanks a ton!

Leslie took the time either in person or via message to respond to my own individual needs while here. She was very proactive when I had trouble locking the door when going out for the day. She came to the unit in person and we got it figured out. Beautiful peaceful setting just sitting on the front deck. Just what I needed while staying there.

Jordan was a great host. The home was very welcoming and in a great location. Highly recommend for anyone looking to spend time in the Blowing Rock or Boone areas

Johnny’s place offered everything I needed and more for a night. It’s easy to walk into and around the little town Banner Elk, but it also has beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Johnny and his wife are very friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed my visit!

Betsey was great! Very responsive and flexible with check in. Place was clean, comfortable, and a gorgeous location!

I have so many good things to say about this place! It was clean, not cluttered, super cute, very well decorated, very thoughtfully, laid out and had everything we needed. It was perfect for a couple and I could see a small family being fine in the space or even two couples that don’t mind sharing the space!

We always enjoy staying here! It’s our go-to place on Beech Mountain. Super-comfortable beds. We love sitting on the balcony and watching the deer while we have coffee in the morning. Michelle is a gracious host and an excellent communicator. Thanks again for another great stay!

Our second trip back, and we’ll definitely visit again. Beautiful community that is perfect for families or folks looking for a peaceful place to admire the gorgeous Mountain View while being close to tons of wonderful restaurants and shopping.

Kyle was helpful and responsive. The place was very clean and the decorations were beautiful. My friend and I had a girl’s weekend and wanted different rooms (because we like to sleep in opposite temperature) and this fit us perfectly. We each had our own bathroom and the beds were very comfy. It was nice to have a kitchen and laundry option too. The directions were easy and Banner Elk is a 5 minute walk. The best part was the 180 degree view! I miss it already and didn’t want to leave! There were deer outside our window both days so that was a bonus. We would stay here again for sure!

If you stay somewhere three nights and as you're packing to return to life in the real world and you have the thought, "I should make staying here an annual tradition" - there's really not much else to add by way of endorsement or review. 🙂

Gorgeous apartment that’s very close to Boone, Blowing Rock, and plenty of outdoor activities. We had a great weekend staying here!

I can not say enough about this beautiful little gem in the woods! It was so well decorated and all the little thoughtful additions, like a bag of local coffee and heated bed covers were just perfect and exactly what I needed for this get away to reconnect with myself and nature. I barely left the condo, because the view was so spectacular and how cozy the home felt! I was visited by a bunch of different birds on the cute patio where I painted a few of them as I sipped coffee and just listened to the breeze ruffle the leaves or rain shower that softly fell! Definitely hope to return very soon!

Trey’s place hit all the marks for what I needed - clean, cozy, comfy, and affordable. Bonus points for an amazing loose leaf tea selection, gorgeous mountain views at sunrise and sunset, and close to everything I wanted to do in the area. (Grandfather Mtn, Linville Falls, Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster were on my list - did them all in a day.) All instructions were clear and easy, and I had everything I needed for an enjoyable weekend away in the NC mountains. Go stay here and support western NC!! I hope to come back again soon :)

We had a great stay! Easy check in, the property was spotless, and everything we needed was there. Great location, convenient to Banner Elk and the parkway. Thank you!

This was our third stay at Ronnie's place. The area is beautiful and peaceful. The condo is perfectly decorated and leaves you feeling right at home. Thanks for another great stay!

We had a great time staying here, it was cozy and perfect for a mountain getaway. Everything was clean, and the location was great.
