About this cottage rental
Welcome to Appalachian Escape!
Appalachian Escape is a fun, family-friendly mountain cottage on a nicely landscaped, virtually private property surrounded by mature woods. There is a wonderful outdoor wood-burning fireplace and stone courtyard to enjoy. The open-air deck is partly covered and wraps around the side of the house. The rear deck has a gas grill, outdoor dining space, and a screened porch. There are two Juliette decks upstairs that offer additional outdoor areas.
The main floor offers an open-concept living room, dining area, kitchen, hardwood floors, and tongue and groove ceilings with exposed beams. The kitchen features granite countertops with an oversized farm-style sink and stainless appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining area with a banquet-style table that seats 8 guests. There is also a 4-seat table for additional accommodations. The living room has a gas log fireplace, a Samsung SmartTV, a BluRay DVD player, and high-speed satellite internet, allowing WIFI throughout the home and giving you the option to log into your streaming accounts. This home also has DirectTV.
The main floor primary suite offers a king bed, hardwood floors, his and her closets, a comfy chaise lounge, an HDTV, and a huge picture window that lets in lots of natural sunlight. The ensuite bathroom boasts an oversized tile shower and double vanity. The second bedroom on the main floor has a queen bed, an HDTV, and private access to the rear deck. Next to the queen bedroom is a full bathroom with a tub and shower. This bathroom is also central and convenient to the rest of the main floor.
At the top of the stairs is a game room/loft with a seven-foot custom-made pool table and a large-screen HDTV. An open-air Juliette deck off the loft overlooks the backyard. There is a full bathroom with a tiled shower upstairs. One of the two bedrooms upstairs offers 2 full beds, each with a twin trundle for additional sleeping options. This bedroom has a television and a large covered Juliette deck overlooking the front yard. The other upstairs bedroom has 4 twin beds with a queen-sized sleeper sofa, all in front of a large HDTV, BluRay/DVD, and Nintendo Wii.
*Allows pets with an additional fee paid after booking. The fee is $35 per pet per day.
Appalachian Escape is tucked into a quiet copse of mature woods, mere minutes from downtown Blowing Rock, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Tweetsie Railroad, Appalachian Ski Mountain, and Boone. Also conveniently nearby are Banner Elk, Sugar Mountain, Hawksnest, Grandfather Mountain, Ski Beech, and much more!

Perfect Home!
We had a great stay at this beautiful home. The house is perfect, and the location was great. Close to town and close to the ski resorts.

The group enjoyed ours staying there, though it was a rainy weekend. The cabin was nice and clean inside as well. We were a little nervous about the road, but it was okay since there was no snow. The two problems we had was the wifi, a bit unstable even after we reset it. Also, the room upstairs with a double bed was cold, and you could feel the wind blowing thru the window; we had to move on the second night.
Overall, everything is good, fast response, and good management.

The location of the home is ideal, and it’s just a short walk from the home to an amazing mountain view. Despite some hiccups with the wifi, the property manager went above and beyond to resolve our issues, and we were especially grateful knowing that our stay was during the holidays.

The cabin was beautiful inside and out but there was no trash bags and one bathroom did not have hand soap. Also the grill propane tank was stuck on close so we were not able to grill some burgers like planned. Other than these minor things we had a great stay! The customer service was great! We arrived about 6pm and had issues opening the door but the rental company answered and helped us immediately.

Perfect spot
The house was a great fit for what we needed. There were 12 adult guys and we each had our own bed. The house has internet as well as direct TV and is was close to all that we needed. The house could use some updating and maybe a little more detailed cleaning but for us it was a great fit for a short stay.
4.6
The stay was fine but these 3 issues made our stay not so good :-
1. Cleanliness was not up to the mark
2. There was no way to communicate with the property owner even when we had an issue with car getting stuck on slope to the house

My two sons and four granddaughters celebrated Christmas in July. We were unable to get together for any holidays this past year so I planned a holiday for my sons, their 2 college students and two upcoming high school students.
We loved the layout and all the living spaces.
The 4 twin beds in the girls room need to be replaced with new mattresses as the ones there are worn out. New cooking pans also need to be replaced.
I would recommend this place for its beauty and location. Bring your own pots.

Good house-needs some upkeep. Thought rooms looked bigger than they were. Loved outdoors area and porch
4.6
Convenient location between Boone and Blowing Rock. There is not a mountain view but with a dog and small children we were thankful for minimal stairs and the large yard to play in. Secluded down somewhat overgrown driveway so very private and quiet. Tastefully decorated. Only complaint with cleanliness was everything was pretty significantly dusty, blinds, fans, furniture, lamps etc.

We went to the cabin for a weekend getaway with family and friends, and we had a great time! The cabin looked just as the pictures advertised. Tons of room and beds for small children and bigger adults. Check-in and out was easy. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we just went down the road for groceries. The refrigerator leaked some but nothing terrible. My only suggestion is if you plan on visiting, bring a flashlight. The fire pit is beautiful, but there are no lights out there to guide your steps and the path is rocky.

Beautiful & Comfortable
The house and surrounding area are beautiful! The yard was great for the kids to play and explore. We also took a scenic walk around the loop. Beds and sitting areas were comfortable. Kitchen was alright, but we did not do much cooking.
Overall the house was clean, however for a rental property I would encourage the owners to require a slightly more thorough cleaning. Specifically under the shelves in the kitchen, under the beds, etc. We had a baby with us who gets into everything...otherwise we never would have noticed.
We loved our time at Punky’s Place and would certainly consider staying here again!!
4.6
Punkeys Place.
We were disappointed that the screened porch was not heated as advertised. We had chosen this property with Covid in mind because that would hello us stay socially distanced. Without the heat, it was not warm enough to use. We also counted on the picnic table at the fire Pit, but it was not there.
Wet contacted the property manager, but he never called us back.

Great property for quiet, remote location.
The cabin was very nice and well kept. It was decorated nice, very comfortable and well furnished. There were a few small issues with cleanliness, but overall it was good. The sink in the downstairs secondary bathroom was blocked with hair and the master shower had a similar problem. Each light switch was labeled and that was very nice! Check in/out process was a breeze. The property was very private and quiet. There was rain and very heavy fog during our stay so it was difficult to traverse the mountain at night. Not a fault, just good to know if you have difficulty seeing.

Gorgeous cabin
We had a fabulous time staying at Punky’s Place in Boone, NC. Everything was great and the pictures were accurate of the cabin. The only 2 things I could comment on negatively was that the bathroom near the queen bedroom wasn’t cleaned throughly (we found a used washcloth left behind and the tub was dusty) and the tub was slow to drain which made it a slipping hazard when taking a bath. Other than that the stay was great!

We had a nice time and kids were loving the snow ...we had everything we needed

It was a pleasant stay at the Cabin. I would recommend to get additional pool sticks for more players to be able to play more players at a time. I would also recommend to fix the sink and bathtub from the downstairs bathroom because it's clogged. Other than that everything was great and we had a wonderful time at the cabin. Thank you very much.

if the cabin would have been clean the rating may have been higher. the cabin was great. the house cleaning sucked. Once the cleaning guy showed up (Paul) he was outstanding asnd that was not his home to clean he just showed up.

We went as a family of 11, ranging from 66 to 6! What a special place to make lasting memories as a family. This is our second year staying at this cabin. We hope to be there again in 2021. We have rented several cabins in years past. This is the cleanest and most accommodating place we have stayed. We loved the patriotic decor the new owners have added. Only thing I would recommend is decorations for the Christmas season. Love, love, love this time together in this warm cabin.
