Cabin is very comfortable, peaceful and relaxing. Host and property met all our expectations plus more

Everything you could ever ask for! The location is tucked up on the mountain, perfect amount of privacy, super clean and spacious. We didn’t even touch the second floor but would be perfect for a family. We enjoyed the hot tub after a long day of hiking and what is not mentioned was the sleep number bed in the master bedroom. We slept great and woke up every morning with fresh coffee stocked by the host. Centrally located to everything. The host really thought of everything to make this house perfect.

We ENJOYED the cabin immensely and the weather. We were hoping for snow and it was GREAT ! It was COLD, so the hot tub was our only outside venture.

This house is big enough for a whole family! It had all of the amenities to keep kids entertained as well. Otherwise it just felt very luxurious for my wife and I. We loved the hottub and endless supply of hot cocoa.

Very nice cozy cabin in a private location. Host thought of so many little details that went way above and beyond! Little goodies and treats and a hot chocolate bar with a fresh can of whip cream just for us! Heaters in the garage for the ping pong table. So many extra little touches. Close to town and not far from Beech mountain where we took the kids sledding. Highly recommend!

Beautiful cabin, adults and kids will love it. Very thoughtful host!

Lovely property with a cozy porch to watch the deer in the front. A real treat! Very clean and supplied. Owner/hostess was very attentive and nice. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend it. Just the place to unwind!

Stayed with my wife and father. The cabin was perfect for our needs and very convenient to our fishing guide.

Laurelwood cabin is very cozy, and has everything needed for a vacation in the Boone area. Would definitely recommend this cabin for smaller groups.

Beautiful yard, well-stocked kitchen, and attentive and kind host.

We only stayed 3 nights, and will definitely stay longer next time! Loved the fact it’s so close to town (shopping and restaurants) and no driving issues to the cabin!

We went to Boone for a hiking vacation and Laurelwood Cabin was a great place to rest up between outings. It is nicely outfitted and comfortable. We prepared most of our meals in the well appointed kitchen, and relaxed afterward on the porch or inside on the big leather sofa. Other than the evening choruses of spring peepers - which were fun to hear - we enjoyed the peace and quiet.

The cabin was great! But if you have someone with handicap needs this isn’t the place to stay. The showers are high and no bars to hold on too! I would t recommend for someone with elderly people! I have had a knee replacement and I didn’t like the shower had no bars to hold on too! Also the bathroom toilet has no bar to hold on to get up from the toilet and it is a low toilet. The TV remotes are a little confusing to work! We had a hard time getting them to corporate and it is a streaming set up! Hope this helps others! The location is great the kitchen is well stocked. The chairs are low in the den to get up from also.

This cabin far exceeded our expectations. It was clean, had a great layout, and many nice amenities. The front porch with swing was awesome and there was a nice fire pit and hot tub in the back. It's very close to Boone and other local trails and parks ie Moses Cone. It had everything we needed to cook and grill. Also, loved the Keurig one cup that came with a great assortment of coffees and teas. There were many nice touches that showed the owner put thought in to the guest experience. The cabin is secluded and is on a high ridge accessed by an unpaved road. The road is steep in parts but presented no problem for our Honda Pilot.

This beautiful place has everything you need. Just bring whatever you wanna cook. Location is perfect. Short distance to lots of area destinations. Staying there alone is worth not going anywhere. Cannot wait to return.

My husband and I were on a weekend getaway with the two grandchildren, hoping to see some snow and go tubing at one of the nearby tubing places. The predicted snow storm turned into mostly ice and our tubing adventure was canceled. I can say we still had an awesome weekend! Enjoying each other, playing games that were provided in the cabin, watching movies on the big screen, puzzles, etc. We ate all of our meals in and were so thankful for a well-stocked kitchen that had everything we needed and also some things we didn’t know we needed. We enjoyed the hot tub and we did get to do some sledding down the hill after all! We made great memories that weekend and we hope to make it a yearly trip.

Last minute booking and experienced no issues. Our teenage son stayed and skied with friends at Sugar Mountain and we were close enough to drive to hang out, but enjoyed being so conveniently located to Boone and toured App State with our older daughter. The cabin was clean, beautiful, lots of windows (but curtains were surprisingly effective as light/thin as they looked blocking enough light to have a lazy, sleep-in morning) and special extras. The kitchen is well stocked with any appliance or cooking utensil you could possibly want, beautiful, fun dishes and extras like aluminum foil, zip lock baggies , snacks, Smores supplies, coffee/tea that really make the stay nicer and easier. The hot tub, fire pit, ping pong table, and HUGE TV were great entertainment along with views. Nice, local book selection to curl up with and toys for younger kids. The thermostat worked beautifully and as open as the space is, it wasn’t drafty at all. The beds were comfy. Enjoyed having shampoo, conditioner and body soap like at fancy hotels. Check in and check out we’re a breeze -love having the ease of keypad entry. Host was very responsive, excellent communicator and even had cabin ready well ahead of scheduled check on time. The only tricky part could be the road if you don’t have AWD or if there was ice/snow, I could see it being more of an issue. Overall, really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back if coming to the area again or recommend for anyone looking for a quaint mountain get away that feels like home and a retreat/escape, super convenient to Boone/App State.

Host was very thorough with communication, easily accessible. House was clean, had lots of supplies and close to everything we needed! Exactly as posted.

We love Boone and this was a great little place for our family of 4. Hot tub was great. Beds were comfy. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils. Definitely need all or 4 wheel drive in winter weather.

The property, the area, and the attentiveness/hospitality from the owner, Diane, was fantastic! Such great attention to the small details.

We loved the cabin! It had everything you could need. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were really comfortable. The location was great too! We will definitely stay here again!

What an amazing mountain getaway for our family of five. The cabin is well maintained and had everything we needed to cook a delicious Thanksgiving dinner. We loved the hot tub, fire pit, hammock, and ping pong table. It is located close to Boone and Blowing Rock. Perfect family getaway for me and my boys.

Everything was perfect! The owner helped me surprise my fiancé with a short getaway to Boone. She arranged a gift for me to have for him waiting when he walked in the door. It was perfect! Definitely a great place and owner was especially helpful in making it a memorable weekend.

We had another wonderful time at Laurelwood. It is the perfect place to explore the area and then relax with the family. Diane is fantastic and our family is grateful that her family shares their cabin so we can make fun memories in the mountains.

Cozy Cabin with everything you would need. They really thought of it all!

This property is an excellent place to relax and enjoy a wooded, country, mountainous setting. We are bird watchers and were disappointed that we did not see or hear birds other than crows. One highlight though was the siting of a flock of wild turkeys, one deer, and several squirrels. The cabin was very clean, comfortable, and was, surprisingly, well equipped lacking only Q-tips for those who use or need them. It was obvious that Ms. Kradel had an eye for decorum as was evidenced by the furnishings and accessories to include decorating with fall colors. This was our first visit to Laurelwood and it was a delightful experience. We plan to visit again next year.

Great central location. Home was spotless. Kitchen is FULLY equipped. Lots of towels. Lots of clean. Temperpedic bed great treat. Front porch was breakfast. Fountain was serene all day long. Can't wait to visit again. Thank you!!

We love to read novels and this cabin was perfect for that exercise. Easy to find and the cabin was well maintained. We have already been telling friends and family to check this cabin out for a nice vacation.

Second time staying, continues to exceed expectations. Our son loves the toys and the location to run around. Clean and super well set up.

Came for the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games. Home was nice and well appointed.

The whole family loved our stay at this cabin! The beds and furniture were comfortable, amenities were fun and it was very clean. We appreciated how well stocked it was with all the basics (quality linens and towels, pots and pans, shower toiletries, detergents, paper products) and fun details like a fully stocked coffee, tea and hot coa coa bar, and even s'mores ingredients.

Diane was amazing at communicating and answering and questions we had quick and timely. The house was clean and well stocked beyond our expectations with additional added touches. We enjoyed our stay and time at Laurelwood and would recommend and definitely stay again.
