Great location minus hurricane

The property is lovely--we had everything we needed. The pool is beautiful as well. The owner allowed us to have extended family over for dinner which was much appreciated. Unfortunately, the Hurricane knocked out power and phones were not working so hard to communicate. But we were safe at the house. I would stay again as the space is lovely.

Paradise in the middle of Hickory

Outstanding decor inside all amenities included and a serene outdoor space with lovely tropical plants and plenty of choices for spending your time reading poolside or enjoying your coffee listening to the birds. The owners thought of everything. One of the best VRBO i have stayed at in 15 years.

Warm and Welcoming!!

We stayed at the Blue Door Guesthouse this weekend as we celebrated the life of my father. The house is beautifully appointed, and the entire space is designed for gathering. We were very comfortable and communication with the hosts was very quick. I would not hesitate to stay here again the next time I am n the area.

This is a beautiful home. The best part is that our hosts, Greg and Linda, really do think about every detail so that it feels like home away from home. I very much appreciated their attentiveness!

Exceeded expectations

This beautiful property was perfect for what we needed. Our son had a soccer tournament in Hickory with spaced out game times, rescheduled games due to weather, etc. The Blue Door Guesthouse was our comfortable oasis to relax and enjoy family time. The pool was great, even in May! The hosts are top knotch. Highly recommend!

AMAZING

I have so much to say but I’ll try to condense it as much as possible. First of everything is super clean. The pool was perfect and the beds were super comfy. Family and I keep our home super cold so it worked out great. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back. Simba was a nice surprise as well, the kids loved him!

Absolutely Beautiful

This place is gorgeous!! You are surrounded by nature. The huge pool is located in the back of the home so it’s very private. There’s a huge palm tree and the landscaping is perfect. My son enjoyed the hammock, and especially the pool. We had a great dinner in downtown. It was such a nice getaway. We will be back! Thank you!

A Beautiful Experience

We loved everything about our stay here. The place was even more beautiful than the pictures. It was decorated with wonderful attention to color, and it was perfectly clean. The kitchen was lovely and easy to use (and thoughtfully stocked with plates, silverware, cooking utensils, paper towels, etc. We had no issues during our stay, but the hosts were great. They were friendly and helpful, and they responded to our messages quickly. My wife and I are already planning to return. We couldn't imagine staying anywhere else. Thank you!
