APP State Open House Visit

Our family of 4 and two small pups enjoyed our stay! The drive was easy getting to in the dark. The house is prefect and very well organized with labels everywhere for example on the light switches. The fenced in back yard is prefect for the pups to play. We LOVED that there was no carpet! We will be back for sure!!!!!

Peaceful Getaway

Our family needed a quick getaway after an eventful last 8 months and this was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet and peaceful location, layout of the house, pet friendly fenced in yard, proximity to restaurants and entertainment, and how equipped the house was. Check-in and check-out were easy. Melissa was very kind and helpful. We will most definitely be adding this to our list of "re-visits". Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy your home!

A great spot in between Boone & Blowing Rock.

It's a great location and looks to be very dog friendly. Only 15 min to downtown Boone & 15 Min to Blowing Rock. We didn't bring the dogs this time but will definitely keep it in mind the next time visiting the area. If you find my toothbrush let me know. I think I left it.

Cozy cabin

We had a fantastic stay at the cabin in Blowing Rock. The cabin was spotless and well-maintained, which made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. It had all the necessities we needed for a relaxing vacation, from a well-equipped kitchen to cozy bedding and plenty of extra amenities. The location was perfect for enjoying the surroundings, and the peaceful atmosphere made it even better. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, well-stocked cabin getaway!

Awesome location and place to stay

This house was such a great experience. All the reviews are accurate. Melissa was responsive and so easy to work with. This house is located walking distance to App Mountain (my 13&18 yr olds walked with their boards and boots). And easy to access boone and blowing rock. It does suggest 4wd for the winter and I would highly recommend this during the cold weather. Would definitely stay here again.

cozy cabin

We had a wonderful stay! Out host was kind and very quick to respond. The cabin had everything we needed including a grill in the back deck! You will enjoy the cozy den with a warm fireplace and comfy blankets to snuggle up in. The children enjoyed the double bunkbeds and the king beds were very comfortable as well. Additionally, the location is off the road and up the mountain (so there's a nice view) but minutes away from area attractions . We really enjoyed out weekend stay and highly recommend it.

Awesome Christmas vacation

My family and I stayed at this cabin for our destination Christmas. When we arrived, we immediately noticed how well kept and clean the property was. I feel like the home is bigger in person than the photos lead on. The host was responsive and friendly. The ski resort was just down the street and so were other attractions. I highly recommend staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Norman

Host profile image
I'm a NC native that has lived all over the state. I love beautiful North Carolina for its beaches, mountains, and piedmont areas. Everything you could want!
While in Blowing Rock, we enjoy hiking the trails, walking around downtown Blowing Rock, and going to games at Appalachian State. Then, I love to unwind just sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee (or two)!

Why they chose this property

We love it here at The Shady Chalet because of the peacefulness and natural surroundings. It's a place to get away and truly relax. However, a short drive is all that's needed to any fun activities we want. It's the best of both worlds!

What makes this property unique

The Shady Chalet offers relaxation and ease to your vacation. We offer a clean and comfortable home where you can make yourself at home. Enjoy your family while playing games, watching movies, roasting marshmallows, or running around the yard. Get away as a couple to peace and quiet. Visit with friends for a weekend of skiing and ice-skating. Our home is tucked away for serenity, but still close to activities when you feel adventurous.
