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!

Family reunion

The Blue Ridge Mountain Lodge is a beautiful place in a beautiful setting. The ample size of the Lodge allowed all my siblings and siblings-in-law to stay in one place. All had a great time and enjoyed the many and varied activities available close by. I would definitely consider staying there again and will recommend it to others.

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!

Blue Ridge Mountain Lodge

A great place to stay for large groups. Fee schedule is different, and the minimum length of stay is longer than most because it is bigger than just a house. We had a wonderful time and the space worked well for our needs.

Family of 16, 14 adults and 2 children

This lodge is a neat fun place to have family gatherings. Our 3rd year and with the new hot tubs, always something new to enjoy. The childen's room is perfect to keep them occupied until their parents awake. The family gathering area for conversations together, is perfect. Lots to do in the area, to visit and enjoy hiking, climbing and exploring.
