Completely furnished with the trail riding enthusiast in mind, it is perfect for our guests that are looking for a step up from the campground with Western style.

We stayed at "The bunkhouse" and was absolutely thrilled with everything about our stay! We took our daughter with some friends for her sweet 16th birthday. They wake up open the curtains and watched the horses(while in the warm) and even from the hot tub one morning ! The cats greeted us and stayed on our back screened in porch and was super friendly with all the kids. Hands downs ....a Beautiful cabin and We will be back!

This is the perfect place to stay! They have everything you need right here; fabulous restaurant, pool, and your own personal hot tub! We will definitely stay here again. Another plus to this location is its not way up a mountain and still close to Boone. The horses are a plus too to watch and hear in the mornings!!!

Wonderful property/horse farm/gated community. 1 and 3 year old girls loved watching the horses out the window and petting them. Will bring them back for riding lessons when they are a little older. Everyone was really nice and helpful too.
My only somewhat negative response is that it was hard to regulate the temperature in the house for sleeping purposes. My 1 year old's room was always 7 degrees warmer than my 3 yr old's room (using baby monitors to track and it just felt a lot warmer). I'm not sure there's much you can do about that though unless there's just a problem with ventilation.

I found this property online. It looks so cozy and rustic I had to get it. I was so excited about going to spend a week here. When we got there it was everything that I had thought it to be in the pictures on the Internet. It was just right for my family we had enough space. The surrounding with the horses and the people were awesome. We also had a chance to get in the hot tub every night which made it awesome. We were about An hour from each big town like Boone but it was worth the drive because it was beautiful. My family will be coming back and staying again.

We stay at Leatherwood on a yearly basis in various rentals. This year was our 2nd year in the Bunk House and found it needs a good cleaning and lots of repairs. We noticed rodent signs in cabinets. We love this place and would lke to stay there again someday.

We enjoyed our stay at the Bunkhouse. The screened back porch and fenced yard were great for our dog, and we loved being able to see the horses outside our window. We would definitely stay here again. Close to the pool, stables, and restaurant. We wished there had been live music on Saturday night!

Absolute paradise for quiet time with family
The only way it could be improved is to offer a stocked fridge of sundries for the entire stay. The only bad part was leaving for the long trip to Walmart in Wilkes.

Great stay!
Beautiful locale with hiking and lake within close range. Cabin was beautiful, well maintained, and had bare necessities for use during our stay. My only complaint would be the stink bugs and lady bugs, but I know those were in season.

Relaxing Getaway
We had a very relaxing girls weekend here and we will definitely do it again! To wake up every morning and see the horses and the gorgeous views was exactly what we needed. The people who work there are so friendly and ready to help or answer any questions. The only concern we had was the place looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in awhile. Maybe no one was staying there for awhile but the dishwasher was dirty on the inside and a few small areas but overall excellent stay! We will be checking out the other places you can rent in the mountains too!
4.8
Great Location
The property was in a nice location close to many walking trails and with horses right across from the house for animal lovers. There were several ski locations within about 45 min to a little over an hour. The cottage was cozy with a nice fire place and hot tub.
There were all the necessary appliances available as well with a full kitchen and laundry room.
Two things made it a 4-star rather than 5-star rating. There were a lot of bugs that got into the property (lady bugs, stink bugs, etc.) which the property info did mention but it seems like more should be done to try to reduce the amount of bugs. The beds also need to be replaced to increase the comfort for sleeping.
4.8
Perfect getaway
Absolutely perfect! The house was very clean and well stocked. The property is well kept and clean with unbelievable beauty and horses everywhere! Everyone was so friendly, helpful and so kind!! My 9yr old enjoyed asking the workers lots of horse questions and every one of them were so kind to him! Someone came out on first night to help us troubleshoot. Showed up quickly and was happy to help! But there was also lots of privacy and felt like the secluded getaway we wanted. The fishing was disappointing but there was a basketball court and playground. We will definitely be back!

Relaxing Retreat
Stayed in the "Bunkhouse", and, while older, it was clean and comfortable, and everything worked as expected. The horse farm and grounds lent themselves to a very relaxing environment and experience.
