About this house rental

Update: This property did NOT receive damage from the hurricane. We have power, water and wifi. Roads are accessible and most of Blowing Rock is open for business. Some large attractions may be still closed. Parkway is also closed. For winter travel, we recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Snow and ice are common during the winter months.

Welcome to Treasured Times Ski Mountain. This home is conveniently located 2 miles from Main Street in Blowing Rock, 1/2 mile from Appalachian Ski Resort and just 10 minutes to Boone. Before we mention anything else, just know you won't want to miss a single sunrise from this home!!
A little about us and our home......We are Ross and Maile Allen. My husband Ross is a home builder and I help out in the company with interior design and marketing. This is our 4th VRBO property in the Blowing Rock area. Our 3 previous VRBO properties (we have over 100 5 star reviews) have been sold. When we saw this home on Ski Mountain go up for sale, we knew it was a diamond in the rough - gorgeous rough sewn wood, incredibe river rock, picturesque views, lovely and quiet 3 acre lot. All it needed was a little makeover to bring this property back to life.
Enhancing and updating the original structure was a labor of love. All the spaces have been newly renovated and yet we love that the home still looks and feels like a rustic mountain chalet from days gone by with all the warm wood tones, heart pine floors and one of a kind 3 story river rock fireplace.
This home sits on almost 3 acres with gorgeous views. It has 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths and sleeps 8.
The upper bedroom has a king bed, a twin bed and twin trundle bed. This room now has a brand new updated bathroom with separate toilet room, tiled shower, 2 sinks and large vanity area with plenty of storage space.
The main level bedroom features a queen bed with a sliding glass door to a lovely deck area. The updated main floor bath is accessible from this bedroom room as well as the main floor hallway.
The kitchen/dining area features all new appliances, beautifully restored original wood cabinetry and a newly installed granite island that seats 3. The kitchen is open to a lovely dining room area that seats 6-8 around a cozy table.
The living room showcases stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and if you're an early riser, sunrises at this home are breathtaking!
The home's lower level features a wonderful area for storing all your hiking, biking, or skiing gear with plenty of "drop zone" space. This level also has a Queen bedroom and ensuite bath with a tub shower.
Outdoor areas include a lovely 3 acre wooded lot with a fire pit perfect for enjoying s'mores under the stars. After a long hike, you'll also want to soothe your sore muscles in our 6 person jetted hot tub.
Dog lovers will enjoy our dog door that allows pups to go in and out as needed. This connects to our fenced in yard.
Hiking, biking, boating, shopping, dining, day spas, and horseback riding are all right around the corner.

We look forward to welcoming you to Treasured Times Ski Mountain soon!

Just spent 8 days in this lovely rental. So well furnished and decorated. Exactly as described and equipped. Really enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub in the evenings, plus the wonderful views during the day. The stairs between the 3 floors were steep for me as I had knee replacement surgery 3 months earlier, but the master bedroom on top was wonderful and made it worth the climb!

What a beautiful way to celebrate our 37 th wedding anniversary than getting away to a gorgeous home two miles approximately from the quaint town of Blowing Rock, NC with our family. It was fully equipped with all the comforts of home like soft sheets, comfy pillows and quilts. The kitchen was well stocked with gadgets, cookware, dishes, glasses, utensils and much more. Our bathrooms were stocked with shampoo, soaps, and everything you might need. The house was clean and decorated with lovely detail. The furnishings were eclectic and I enjoyed the fire places throughout. All of the beautiful stone work reminded me of my parent's home in Colorado. The fenced yard was awesome for our small dogs and access was convenient from the deck on the main floor. There were a lot of stairs though and that was difficult for my aging dog and for me, but we managed. A majestic view just beyond the prow designed windows was a slice of heaven. Spectacular sunrises were visible as well as wooded vistas. Tiny flowers were sprouting everywhere outside and although we did not use the fire pit, it looked like it would be fun to have had a fire. The high winds and dry air made it not ideal for a fire outdoors but we had plenty indoors as an ample s supply of wood was provided. This home was located close to Blowing Rock and the Blue Ridge Parkway. We even made it to Linville Falls the last day. I appreciated the comfortable, clean accommodations and the fabulous view was a bonus.
