About this property

Sprawling Blowing Rock Escape with Theater and Hot Tub!

Amazing mountain views surround this 3,000 sqft tree-top vacation rental nestled between Boone and Blowing Rock. Appropriately named "The Jackpot," this amazing cabin has 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and is conveniently located near every major attraction in the High Country. Relax and recreate with 3 Decks (2 heated, 1 with a hot tub) 2 living rooms, a movie theater, and a game room with billiards, shuffleboard, and card/poker table. The Jackpot has something for everyone!

The Jackpot is a 3-story house with 4 king bedroom suites, 1 on the main floor, 2 on the downstairs floor, and 1 on the basement level (each has an attached bathroom) and a bunk room (on the downstairs floor) with 4 twin beds. Linens, towels, toiletries, and basic cleaning supplies are provided. The kitchen is fully stocked, and even includes complimentary coffee (drip coffee maker). The top two decks are heated, with the outdoor dining area on the top deck, and 3 swings and sitting area on the middle deck. The lower deck is outfitted with a 6-person hot tub. Kids and adults will both enjoy the theater and game room, and there are puzzles and toys for the younger children (hey, adults love puzzles too!) and a pack'n play for infants, as well as a portable high chair.

***Up to 2 small dogs are permitted with paid pet fee- please select pets at the time of booking to apply the pet fee.

The Jackpot has a concrete parking pad large enough to accommodate 4 vehicles. Although the road to the cabin is paved, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is strongly recommended during the winter months as bookings will not be canceled due to inclement weather.

Relax! You deserve a 5-Star experience. Should you need assistance during your stay, please don't hesitate to contact us. From our families to yours, thank you for choosing to stay with us.

Enjoy your Vacay!
Kevin Cox
Owner, Vacay LLC

The Jackpot is located in a quaint mountain neighborhood with only 9 other properties on the street. So peaceful and refreshing!

Parking for up to 4 vehicles is provided in the driveway. Although the road to the cabin is paved, well-kept, and plowed during/after snow, a 4 WHEEL DRIVE vehicle is recommended during winter months. Reservations will not be modified or cancelled due to inclement weather.

The Jackpot is a family-friendly environment and fun for visitors of all ages, but please note that the interior stairs (not gated) may pose a hazard for young children, as well as difficulty for guests with limited mobility.
HOT TUB: By using the hot tub, you agree to abide by the posted rules, some of which include showering before and after use of the hot tub (detergents in swimsuits not properly washed before using the hot tub cause foam) and you acknowledge and accept a cleaning fee of $300 if the hot tub has to be drained/sanitized due to negligence/failure to abide by the posted rules.
QUIET HOURS: Out of respect for our neighbors, please keep noise to a minimum after sunset.

Great family time

The property was perfect for our family Thanksgiving getaway! The number of king beds was our original reason for choosing the property but it was loaded with great amenities for families…games, puzzles, movie room, and game tables. The house was very clean and the owners thought of every need we might have!

The best rental

This house is extremely large and beautiful. The neighborhood is very nice. What set our experience above all of the many VRBO rentals we’ve had is the attention to detail and generosity of the company managing this rental. Each bedroom had a box of Kleenex and the bathrooms were stocked with extra toilet paper under the sinks. The kitchen had extra rolls of paper towels. These products were good quality, not generic brands. All sinks had liquid hand soap. All other places we’ve stayed in you only get one complimentary roll and have to bring more products. We had an issue with the recliner not turning on. Kevin sent someone out to plug it in because it was too heavy for us to move. Easy fix and quickly done. He was extremely nice. I highly recommend this rental. You will be very happy here.

Mountain Vacation

The house was great and as pictured and advertised. One thing not noted is that there is a firepit outside in the back. No wood included by it is five minutes from shopping center with a Publix etc. House was clean and the theatre room and hot tub were great. Gas fireplace was excellent as well and communication was easy and very quick to respond which is always a plus. I would book again and highly recommend to anyone looking to stay.

Lovely Place! Will be coming back for sure!

This is one of the best places that we have stayed. The house was absolutely amazing and we had no issues at all! We celebrated my best friend's 40th birthday and it was the perfect place! The game room and the movie theater room were amazing. My kids stayed there the entire time! You won't be disappointed if you book this house. The hosts were wonderful as well! We will definitely be back!

Wonderful Family Getaway

We had a group of 9 family members who met at the property for our spring break trip! We had 4 teenage boys with us, and we all loved the property very much. They enjoyed the game room down stairs as well as had a movie night for the family! It was exceptionally clean and well-kept! The property manager, Kevin, was so very helpful from start to finish, through the entire process and trip! There were also plenty of hiking trails including the Blue Ridge Parkway, as well as restaurants and shops nearby. I highly recommend staying here for a fun vacation, mountain getaway!

Boone Girls’ Trip

Stayed at The Jackpot with 7 ladies for a Boone getaway. Cannot say enough positive things about the home. Between the movie theatre, the hot tub and porch with swings, there was always a nice place to relax. Fully stocked kitchen made cooking easy. Best of all, Kevin was only a phone call/ text away if we needed him. Will try to stay here every time we plan to visit our Alma Mater.

Perfect Mountain House for Families!

This house was, by far, our most favorite house we have stayed in the mountains! Our family tradition for Thanksgiving is to stay in the mountains with extended family. We reserve a different house each year and the Jackpot has been the best yet! So much fun stuff to do in the house that we didn't feel like we had to make plans throughout our stay. So fun to hang out and play games in the game room and the kids LOVED the movie room! Very clean and modern home! The location is perfect with a short ride to downtown Boone and Blowing Rock. Host was a great communicator and super friendly! Definitely recommend : )

Absolutely wonderful mountain getaway!

We were a group of moms and teenage sons. The house was perfect for our stay and very well equipped. The kids loved the game tables and movie room and the moms enjoyed the kitchen and fireplace. Great location for hiking and going in to town. The kitchen is well equipped and lacked nothing. Truly the perfect getaway. We will be back!
