About this property

The Wander Inn - Nestled in the heart of Downtown Blowing Rock, one block to Main Street!

Leave your cares behind at The Wander Inn! Perfectly located in Downtown Blowing Rock, just a block to the historic Main Street shopping & dining, this townhome is the ideal home base for all your Blowing Rock adventures!

Entering the property is easy, with zero steps through the garage. The ground floor offers a family room with comfortable furnishings arranged around a built in wall of shelves and an HDTV, as well as a half bath with laundry. The eat-in kitchen is updated with stainless steel appliances and comes with all the cooking basics you'll need to prepare meals - if you can resist the temptation to grab dinner from one of the many restaurants within easy walking distance, that is!

The Wander Inn offers three great bedrooms. On the second floor, one story up from the ground floor, you'll find a King suite with private bathroom, and a second King suite. At the top, on the third floor, you'll find the third bedroom with a Queen bed and a twin daybed with trundle.

Outside on the ground level is a lovely fenced in patio, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the atmosphere in Downtown Blowing Rock. There is one parking space outside as well as room for two mid-size vehicles inside the garage.

The Wander Inn is perfectly located just steps off Sunset Drive, facing The Inn at Ragged Gardens and the Blowing Rock Alehouse. With such a convenient location, you won't need to worry about finding a parking spot to explore Historic Main Street - just lock the front door and walk up the street. Wander Inn to this great home today!

Fall Friends Trip

Amazing property for a fun family, friend trip. The location is perfect if you want to walk to the town of Blowing Rock to explore. The house has a great layout with lots of space! The bedrooms are great size with bathrooms to join. The outside area is nice for little kids since it is gated. Definitely want to rebook since the property manager was easy to communicate with and very friendly.

Great location. Parking a little iffy.

Overall, it was a good stay. However, it was hard to determine where to park and the entrance gate and steps were slick from the snow and ice. Once inside, the quality was good, but there was a half full garbage bag left in the kitchen and a few light bulbs were out. Finally, the fees more than DOUBLED the total cost of this rental. Although the location was very good, I'm sorry to say we're not likely to rent this one again.

We were in for the horse show and this was the perfect location. Plenty of room, enjoyed the collection of games and, not that we cooked, but the kitchen had everything you’d need or want. Would definitely stay again.
