A family church from the 1880s renovated to very high standards. Just 3 mins from down town Boone. We enjoyed our mini fam reunion very much.
It is a place of peace.

Totally enjoyed this space for a short vacay. The amount of amenities provided was so useful. The actual space clearly matches the descriptions and pictures. We even enjoyed the owner’s recommendation of The Local as a Boone restaurant .
5.0
Very pleasant accommodations that was conveniently located to downtown Boone. The restoration of the church was impressive and tastefully decorated. Owner should consider putting together a scrapbook of old pictures of when it was used as a church for guests to browse. Place was very clean and included all essential amenities. Will definitely stay again for future Boone trips.

What a great property. Historic Thomas chapel has been converted so thoughtfully. It was the perfect place for a relaxing week away. Nice kitchen for cooking after going to the farmers market. Spacious and cozy all at once. Super clean! Thanks for a great stay!

Thomas Chapel was an an amazing place to stay. It was the perfect location, close to downtown Boone and just a short drive to many other fun and adventurous activities. Daniel was a great host and the property was just as described. We also love the history of the chapel .

It was perfection. We sat out in the evening and watched the fire flies. Very peaceful yet close to town. I loved sitting in large comfy chair reading or just gazing up at the hand hewn beams. We will return.

I'm not normally the person that takes the time to review properties, but this one was so special that it deserves it. First, the property itself was amazing. You can feel and see the history of this building, yet at the same time you don't feel like you are staying in a converted church. Daniel did an amazing job with decor keeping everything comfortable and modern, but with touches that pay homage to the fact that it is a converted church. The kitchen was stocked with everythig we needed and the entire property was immaculately maintained. Daniel was also very easy to communicate with on the couple of times I reached out prior to check-in. The location is just as amazing as the property itself. It is located within about a minute drive from King St./downtown Boone, but also completely secluded. My wife and I visited for our 15th wedding anniversary and were so impressed that we plan on making this an annual trip.
Anyone that is considering booking this property needs to do so as it will not be something you will regret.

Thank you for sharing your place with us. We loved reading the history of the church and family. We would highly recommend you staying here. It was very comfortable, quiet, and peaceful.
5.0
This is the sweetest renovated church that is bright and cheerful. Awesome handmade woodwork by the owner. Very well stocked kitchen and spacious rooms. A loaf of bread and sparkling cider were left for us to enjoy. And don't forget to ring the church bell outside!
This is a must return for us.
5.0
This property is gorgeous and unique and filled with history and intentionality. For the same price as a traditional cottage, we got to bask in the beauty of 19th century architecture, at least 40 foot ceilings, and homey touches that made everything inviting. While we never saw Daniel, he felt fully available through his extensive binder and communication with details on the property and attractions in the area.
One suggestion for making the property even more enjoyable for future guests would be the addition of a fire circle and grill outside. Thank you so much for this memorable stay, and we have already begun sharing our positive experience with friends!
5.0
This place was just what it is shown be - a converted chapel with all the amenities you could hope for. When you drive up, it is a little white chapel on a rise; when you walk in you still have the ambiance of the old chapel with all the modern conveniences of living today. The modern kitchen is a joy to use along with bright, clean bathroom, king size bed and even plugs on both side tables for your chargers. When we arrived, there was sourdough bread along with non-alcoholic sparkling "wine." The host even has coffee and filters and tea, along with a few snacks. The stream running down the side is such a welcoming sound whenever you go out. We couldn't stop looking up at the open rafters - beautiful old-time labor. Whenever we are in the area again, this is my only choice of lodging.

We really enjoyed our stay at this historic Chapel. This unique home had all the amenities of home. The inside is absolutely beautiful with the tall ceilings. The bed was extremely comfortable. We felt right at home. This location was so close to everything we wanted to do. We defiantly want to come back the next time we are in Boone.

The Thomas Chapel was perfection! The history itself made this a very special place to stay. The inside is immaculate and no detail was overlooked. The owner, Daniel, was quick to respond to questions and made sure our stay was perfect. I travel to Boone often, and will stay in the chapel every time I come up now!
5.0
Our stay at this property was nothing short of AMAZING! The communication with the owner was top notch, check in was easy and somehow the interior was more stunning than the outside! Perfect for picture opportunities. The proximity to king street is amazing if you can manage to tear yourself away from this beautiful property. The kitchen and bathroom are incredibly clean and spacious. The bed was comfortable and couches were perfect to watch tv or read on. The decor was the cherry on top!

When we saw the listing for a renovated chapel, we knew it was the place for us, but it was even more than we imagined when we saw it in person. Everything was perfect, we even took use of the very stocked kitchen to make a meal on a day we got some snow. We will definitely book with Daniel again.

We were in Boone (first trip to this area) for a football game and vacation. In planning our trip we searched for “best places to stay in Boone” and this property came up at the top of the list. It did not disappoint!! It is such a unique property. Great location, absolutely immaculate, quiet, beautiful, very comfortable. Large living area, huge bathroom, comfortable bed, lots of attention to detail in the design. Daniel was very helpful with the couple of questions we had. We would definitely stay here again if we travel back to the area!!

The chapel was a most awesome place to stay. So much better than a hotel. The chapel detail is fabulous. Rooms are expansive which make one feel you are at home. Chapel interior is extremely clean with needed tools to prepare breakfast, lunch, or dinner if one chooses. Furniture and bedding is very comfortable with plenty of TV channels. One highlight was seeing deer each night feeding outside the chapel. We hope to return in summer. Well done, Daniel.
