About this property

The 5 bedrooms include 3 King, 1 Queen plus twin, and a 2 twin bed plus 1 double bed bunk room. Each bedroom has an attached private bath. Master king bedroom is on the main living area, two bedrooms on both the upper and lower levels. Dual living areas, one on main floor and one downstairs. Fiber Wi-Fi and good cell reception.

The upper "TreeHouse" level has the two twin plus double bunkbed, the queen bed plus twin bed room, attached private bath for each, netflix in both bedrooms, cozy reading nook, puzzle/game area & a stand up 60-game arcade for Pac-Man, Centipede and Frogger tournaments. Now whatever the weather, our young guests are entertained.

In the main level kitchen, the stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and eating bar make cooking a family activity. Whether you're dishing up macaroni and cheese or pulling steaks off the attached deck gas grill, you will find ample tableware, utensils and cooking/serving pieces. Bon Appetit!

The lower level den with wet bar and fireplace is the perfect spot for game watching. This level also includes a 2nd Primary bedroom with king bed as well as another king bedroom, both with attached full bathrooms. Stepping off the huge L shaped lower deck puts you on the well maintained Nick-a-jack hiking trail, just grab your water bottle and GO.

Appalachian, Sugar and Beech Mountain are all within 50 minutes, Tweetsie Railroad, Ropes Course & Theme Park just 12 miles away.

Appalachian State University in Boone is the perfect venue for D-3 sports and entertainment offerings throughout the year.

And don't worry about the driving conditions, of course the roads are beautiful, curvy and hilly but all roads to your front door are in excellent shape, paved, well marked and groomed year round.

For your safety, cameras record parking area/trash cages, lower deck exit steps and front entry.. Camera 1 of 3 is located on the front porch to record entry and vehicles coming down Stonecrop towards the trash cage along the left side. This allows us to monitor that snow plowing (when applicable) and repair/maintenance staffs. Camera 2 of 3 is in the recessed storage area on the lower back deck across from and above the 5 lower deck exit steps. It records the walking traffic from the Nick-a-Jack Trail up to the top step. It helps monitor should non-guests who walk by trespass onto the deck system, possibly entering the home if previous guests failed to lock the four sliding doors. Camera 3 of 3 records activity at the trash cans to document weekly pickup.

A wonderful Blowing Rock week

We had a wonderful time at this property. The home is spacious, comfortable and well-appointed. The beds are very comfortable, as is the furniture. The main floor deck is huge with wonderful views; we spent more time on that deck than anywhere else. The hosts were communicative and responsive to a couple of minor issues on check in... wonderful to work with. A minor issue... wifi is a little spotty; I was working the week we were there and Zoom/Teams was a little spotty. I think, though, that that is more an issue of the mountains than this house in particular. Overall we very much enjoyed out stay and recommend the property highly and without reservation.

Peaceful Mountain Escape

We had an amazing time staying at this beautiful home. The views were breathtaking, The home was well designed and stocked with everything we needed. We really appreciated the comfortable deck fuimiture which is where we spent most of our time. . The beds were really comfortable too! For most of the trip it was just my husband and I but My husbands brother and his wife joined us for a few days. The house allowed for each couple to have their own space which made a really nice visit. This home is in a gated community with tons to do. We went hiking, rented our first ATV ( highly recommend)and) and the gym with its amazing view made workouts so easy. We rarely left the property.. We are hoping to be back soon! One of our best VRBO stays! Thank you!

80th Birthday Success!

Beautiful surroundings, prime location, huge and spacious home with everything we needed - thank you! Four families converged from North, East and South and found an amazing place for us just outside Boone and Blowing Rock. Everyone had enough space and more than enough to do (you know your family and how everyone needs something different). We couldn't have been happier with this VRBO.

A mountain gem.

This house was the near-perfect place for our extended family of 6 adults, 5 children, and 1 baby. The descriptions were accurate. We were not disappointed. The house is within an enormous gated ‘community’ stretching along a high ridge where gorgeous long-range views abound, including the one we enjoyed from the deck. Our family filled the house, but it never seemed crowded. When an additional 6 adults and 2 children joined us during the day for a family reunion, the house continued to serve us well. The kitchen was large with lots of counter space. The beds and bathrooms were very comfortable. We frequently gathered around the outside fireplace from early morning to well into the night. The owners were responsive, gracious, and quick to address any concerns. My family was talking about returning while we were still there. We had a wonderful stay.

Ski Trip

The pictures do not do this property justice. Additionally, it was immaculately decorated with higher end furnishings, decorations and linens. We are a really picky group and at the conclusion of our stay not be member could point to anything negative. The kids also wanted me to share they loved the costume closet as it occupied them for a solid 3 hours on a rainy day. Last piece of information I’d like to share is about the BRMC. This place is awesome. Hiking trails, fire pits and the restaurant was delicious and absolutely clutch on two evenings when we didn’t want to drive to town. I’d highly recommend.

Fall getaway

We love staying in the Blue Ridge Mountain club. The On the Rocks house is perfect for our family of 8 and has some of the best private views. The porches and outdoor fireplace is such a great feature too. There is easy access to hiking trails and the Lookout Grill while still having the convenience of Blowing Rock, Boone and the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Family Vacation

This was our 2nd time staying at this house. Amazing location, very peaceful setting. Neighborhood amenities really make this the perfect house. With the way the house is constructed, there is not much insulation separating floors, so it’s not a super quiet house, but our group was all going to bed and getting up around the same time so it’s not an issue for us.

A gem in the Blue Ridge Mountains

On the Rocks is a beautiful, well appointed home in the Blue Ridge Mountain Club just outside of Boone, NC. The views and amenities were truly spectacular! We traveled to Boone for App State’s Graduation weekend and we’re 20-30 min away from campus. It was perfect! The home has two indoor and two outdoor living areas that let the 10 of us spread out and enjoy the fabulous views of the mountains. The kitchen had everything we needed and the large grill made it easy to have a great cookout. The other nice thing is that the home sits a short walk from a common pavilion with pickle ball, horseshoes, bocci, and huge fire pit( with wood) for have a campfire get together. It also is at the trailhead of a trek down to a waterfall and swimming hole( Blue Hole) and is minutes from the Lookout Grill restaurant on site. Overall a great experience and we hope to be back soon!

About the host

Hosted by RICHARD HICKS

Host profile image
I was lucky enough to grow up vacationing with my aunts in the Blue Ridge Mountains, as we would road trip to escape the middle GA summer heat. The long range blue mountain views, the quaint towns of Blowing Rock, Boone and Valle Crucis, the public golf courses & tennis courts and the delicious restaurants made such an impression, I hoped to one day not only share the mountains with my family, but to own a little piece of heaven here as well.

In 2009 we were introduced to the beautiful 6,000 acre Blue Ridge Mountain Club, just off the Blue Ridge Parkway. The location, views, maintained hiking trails, year round paved road access and community feel of the planned development just felt right. In 2010 we were fortunate to complete the construction of this Cottage which we offer as a short and long term rental home year round.

Welcome!

Why they chose this property

We dreamed of having a NC mountain place for years. Once we had the ownership opportunity, we wanted to make sure we had room for everyone - our twins, their friends, family, other mountain lovers - when we made the trip from our home in GA to the mountains. We were able to design and build this home with room for everyone; we have found it to be the perfect property for a crowd!

With 5 bedrooms, each with an attached full bathrooms, two living areas and two huge decks there is room and privacy for everyone.

In 2018 we added 7 smart tv's and rearranged the upper level for more kid fun. The "TreeHouse" as we now refer to it, boasts a 2 twin, 1 double bed bunk unit, cozy reading nook, puzzle/game space and an old fashioned 60-game stand up arcade game for PacMan, Frogger or Centipede tournaments. So whatever the weather our young guests are entertained.

On the main level kitchen, the stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and eating bar make cooking a family activity. Whether you're dishing up macaroni and cheese or pulling steaks off the attached deck gas grill, you will find ample tableware, utensils and cooking/serving pieces. Bon Appetit!

The lower level den with wet bar and fireplace is the perfect spot for game watching. This level also includes a 2nd master with king bed and a queen bedroom, both with attached full bathrooms.

Stepping off the huge L shaped lower deck puts you on the well maintained Nick-a-Jack hiking trail, just grab your water bottle and GO!
