About this house rental
Step back in time when houses were made from local materials found right on the property. Experience the charm of construction before the days of levels and perfect fits, yet the craftsmanship was so remarkable that somehow things not only fit, but held up well against the trials of time.
As you climb the stone steps in front of the house, note how each step has a different height before you arrive on the stone deck where rocking chairs and a wood bench await your use and delight. A truly great front porch and beautiful sunsets await you!
Inside, lovely rooms will greet you with quality furnishings as well as modern amenities in the kitchen and baths. Started in the 1920s (with outside kitchen and bath during the early days), the house has had several additions as it was enlarged and modernized. Today, it contains 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, a living room, large kitchen with dining area, and a large family room. Although rarely if ever needed, air conditioning has been added to insure your comfort.
The house is configured whereby it can be easily enjoyed by 6 people as an extended family or group, or by 2 or 3 couples or family units with separate sleeping areas in the 2 bedrooms and the family room.
Each of the living room and family room are equipped with a television with cable service and a dvd/vhs player. Also in the family room are a convertible sleeper couch and lounge chairs, a stereo system with cd player and floor speakers, and a bumper pool table.The house is heated primarily via gas heaters that helps keep this area warm and cozy even in the coldest weather. An extensive and varied collection of vhs movies are also available for your viewing pleasure.
All rooms are furnished with comfortable and suitable furniture and furnishings, including high quality mattresses in the bedrooms and plenty of closet space.
The kitchen contains all new appliances, including a refrigerator with ice maker, stove, and dishwasher, as well as all normal kitchen utensils, pots and glassware. Stove and oven are gas.
A utility room contains the electric clothes washer and clothes dryer, as well as a gas powered water heater.
One bath has a tub and shower, while the contains a shower.
There is also a “mud room” if needed to clean your feet before entering the house, and this is also a suitable area for storing skis or other outdoor equipment.
Enjoy a unique experience when you stay in this very cool house that is literally a taste of history, but with modern cooking and plumbing facilities as well as modern comforts and features like TV and Wi Fi . It is conveniently located close to stores and restaurants, but in a rural/natural setting. Where else do you get on the Blue Ridge Parkway to get groceries, but you are only 6 miles from a 24 hour WalMart Super Center, and a variety of other stores.
The Stone House is normally not available for periods of less than 7 nights from December to March.
Logs and Stones Vacation Rentals is 14 acres, and we also offer 3 lovely log cabins with hot tubs at vrbo listings 481130, 601785, and1490669. Please check these if your desired dates are taken for this property.

The house is definitely on the older side and it's a little oddly laid out but overall it was nice and well located for exploring the mountains and different sights off of the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Stone House
Stone House was built in 1922 with some modifications over the years. The layout of the house reminds you of visits to Grandma’s farmhouse of yesteryear. Window units and ceiling fans kept the house comfortable during 90 degree days. There area is very quiet.

Overrated house
My experience is not very pleasant with the stone house.
1. I found this house is quite overpriced.
2. One of the bathroom doors we could not close.
3. This house is not for 6 people, we have to sleep on the wooden floor, at night it was quite cold for kids. also there is no extra matteress.
4. You can not sit outside, as it has full of bugs wandering your head. It's really irritating.
5.Whole house is very old and need renovation, as you walk, it keep making lot of noise, also I keep hearing some noise at night, we were worried about our car parked outside.

Quiet mountain cottage
This cottage was exactly what we expected based on reviews and property description. It was clean and once we got the hang of regulating the gas heaters, it was comfortable even with temperatures in the 20's. The layout is a bit inconvenient as you have to pass through either of the 2 bedrooms to go from the family/TVroom to the kitchen. But we were with close family so no one minded. It's location makes it feel very secluded even though it is close to all the towns and attractions we were interested in.

Rustic House with Interesting Layout
The Stone House was mostly as described. We enjoyed the location and convenience to the Blue Ridge Parkway. The house had all of the essentials. The house is furnished traditionally. The kitchen/dining room was well equipped and functional. The living room looked nice but the TV in that room did not work (lightning we were told) so we didn't really use that room. The Family room is very large and has continuous windows on 3 sides. The TV in that room worked but picture did not fill the screen. The WiFi worked well in the Family Room but not in the kitchen area. The land line was not functional while we were there even though we reported it to the property manager. Cell phone service in the house is marginal and frequently required us to go outside to make calls or send text. It turned cool while we were there and we had to use the gas space heaters. The central heating system is not functional. The space heaters were adequate to warm the house but no heat was available in the bath rooms. The layout of the house indicates it was significantly remodeled over the years and getting from the family room to the kitchen requires going through one of the bedrooms. This wasn't a problem for us but could be a problem with a larger group wanting some privacy.

Holiday weekend
The Stoney House is very quaint and quiet place to stay. It was clean and has a great front porch with rocking chairs to relax and enjoy nature. It is just about 2 miles from Little Switzerland and the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Cute cottage in superb location.
This was a cute cottage in a superb location! We stayed over Thanksgiving 2020 and had a wonderful time. There were so many beautiful hikes and waterfalls nearby, and the front porch was great for relaxing in the afternoon. The beds and family room were especially comfortable, and the kitchen had most everything we needed.

Quiet area
Location was quiet and still close to things. There are many heaters in the property but only needed one to keep us comfortable. The place was as described. It is a bit of a maze inside the house and we kept going in circles, but its to be expected of an older home. Very clean and comfortable and met our needs for cooking and relaxing at the home over a weekend stay. We had no serious issues and owner was communitive. Cell service is spotty, but we were on a vacation and didn't care or need the service. The pond next door and the stream out front was nice to listen to.

spacious place, nice location
Felt like someone's home more than a rental property. That's a good thing! Good hiking nearby. Off season there's not a ton of restaurants or other things in the area, but the house is well equipped for home cooking.

Quiet retreat
The old stone house is a quaint little getaway in the mountains. The views from the Blue Ridge Parkway and nearby Little Switzerland are great. The TV and Internet worked great, but cell service is touchy, so we just put our phones away and enjoyed the peaceful mountain atmosphere.

Old home with character
The Stone House is roomy with the family room addition. Our children enjoyed the bumper pool table. The property is on a quiet country road. With the comfortable mountain temperatures it was delightful to sit on the front porch and visit or read. This is an old house, which gave it character, but our only disappointment was that it was moist and musty inside. Although the temperatures were comfortable, we ran the window units upon arrival to dry out the heavy moisture leaving bedding and towels feeling damp. Otherwise it was clean, just old.

Quiet getaway
This is a lovely stone house which stayed amazingly cool inside despite hot weather outside. Loved sitting in rockers on front porch listening to birds. Very relaxing place.

Perfect Quiet Getaway / Great Owner Communication
My family and I stayed for 4 days. It was a perfect quiet setting to get away from everything. It is not fancy, but was exactly what we were looking for - a rustic country home away from the hustle and bustle. It is probably best suited for a family of no more than 4, but 6 works out ok. The owner was prompt, thorough and helpful. The property manager, Doug, was wonderful and is close by should you need anything. My family and I enjoyed our stay and would definitely make a return trip.

Great
We had a wonderful stay here. It was easy to find and the owners/property manager were easy to contact if needed. Lots of Little Switzerland is closed in the winter unfortunately, but otherwise a positive experience.

Cute house in a great location
Everything in the description was spot on. House is older and there is no mountain view but it delivers in every other way. Clean, well appointed house just a mile from Little Switzerland Inn and Cafe and very near the Wal Mart if you need supplies. The house is right off the road so access in and out is easy. We'll be back!

Very clean and quiet
My wife and I were looking for a quiet weekend and Stone Cabin provided that. The owner and property manager were very friendly and provided detailed information about the property and how to get there. Afterward he was very prompt in returning our security deposit.

Complicated
We went for Weekend, 2 night stay on Sept 28. We reached late 730pm and had difficulty with the code. I called the owner who was very responsive and helped eagerly with the code and even emailed more details. Once inside the cottage, there was water damage and mildew smell, predominantly in the living room. Had hard time sleeping that night. Next morning, we called the manager and left. Owner called later on and apologized multiple times and was very nice and straight up about it. I agree with the fact that it is a nice little cabin in the mountains but I think it got rained out in Hurricane Florence, which owners did not know about. He is going to return the rent but I asked him to keep the taxes and cleaning fee since we did stay one night and used the towels etc. I guess it was just a bad timing. It had great reviews prior to this, so I am presuming that it is because of the hurricane and would give owners the benefit of doubt. But whoever goes next, should check with the owners, to be sure that everything has been taken care of. I gave 3 reviews only because the owners were very nice/humble..seemed down to earth guys.

Serene and Peaceful
Our stay at the Stone House was great. Looks quaint, but has an impressive amount of room inside. It's close to some good restaurants and is directly in between two great gemming locations.

Rustic Stone House in Little Switzerland
Very comfortable and clean rustic home 5 minutes from Blue Ridge Parkway and Little Switzerland...very quiet and peaceful location and easy drive to hiking - golf - dining and enjoying the beautiful NC mountains. The home is well appointed and the only thing missing are mountain views. We enjoyed our weekend here...

Nestled in the Mountains
Very clean, spacious home with most amenities except central air (has window AC) which were never needed, and we spent the month of August! Chill out on the rockers on the front porch, explore the Blue Ridge Pkwy sites or drive to Blowing Rock, Boone, and Asheville. Mountain roads take a little getting used to ( you are really up there!), but worth it. Property manager, Doug, is very friendly and helpful, as is the owner, Steve. Peaceful and quiet!

Tranquil retreat
We are so grateful that the Pearson's were able to accommodate our last minute reservation request. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by a chipmunk and baby bunny. The cabin was perfect for our family of 4. Everything we needed, including soap, hair dryer and detergents, was provided. The linens were clean and the mattresses comfortable. Our only disappointment was the poison ivy around the pond and creek. If we return to the area, we will definitely stay at the Stone House again.

Nice
The stone house is very nice, lots of room, good location, well maintained.
Refrigerator runs loud and the ice machine did not work. Maybe clear some of the brush away to get a view of the pond from porch.

Excellent location, Pleasant stay
We found this nice looking stone house for our memorial day guys weekend out. The place is spacious, quiet, clean and well kept with everything that you could need. The location is perfect for a relaxing retreat. Absolutely no hassles checking on and checking out and the owner and manager were very cooperative and helpful. Would definitely recommend the place to anyone.
