Welcome to Chalet Alpine!

Chalet Alpine, an exquisitely decorated A-frame cabin in the famed Hound Ears Club, Blowing Rock, North Carolina, welcomes you! Centrally located among the communities of Blowing Rock, Boone, Banner Elk and Valle Crucis, and minutes from the Blueridge Parkway and ASU, our European-style Chalet Alpine is tucked away in one of the most sought-after communities in the High Country.

Located in the gated community of Hound Ears Club with 24-hour security, Chalet Alpine is an inviting and secure place to visit where you can relax, renew and refresh. Fully remodeled, Chalet Alpine offers charming European alpine cabin décor, top-of the-line new double-hung windows, custom carpentry, natural stone, cozy fireplace and expansive deck.

Established on an impressive boulder formation, with its landmark towering chimney and iconic cedar shake roof to the interior rustic furniture from a local artisan, Chalet Alpine is professionally designed and tastefully decorated with charm in mountain cabin style.

LIVING ROOM/KITCHEN/DINING – The main level with a brand-new floor features an open living room, kitchen and dining area with exposed beam ceilings, as well as a main door and additional sliding door leading to an expansive, wrap-around deck for enjoying the beauty of the surrounding nature. The living room is perfect for relaxing with upscale leather sofa and chairs, gas stone fireplace and a 60" flat screen smart TV. The kitchen has been designed with custom cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and everything you would need to create memorable meals and dining experiences – from glassware and cookware to kitchen gadgets, nothing has been left out. The rustic dining table easily accommodates 8 and the kitchen island an additional 2. On the deck you will find an Adirondack chair set and table, plenty of additional patio furniture and an outdoor dining table as well as a gas grill.

Main floor MASTER SUITE – Our master suite on the main floor features a plush king bed and reading chair, flat screen TV, authentic trim and luxury furnishings to create a look only found in the finest of custom resort homes, along with a tucked-away, top-of-the line washer and dryer. The ensuite master bath boasts a Kohler bathtub and slate shower combo.

UPSTAIRS you will find two bedrooms and an additional full bathroom. The larger bedroom features two plush queen beds, a 55” flat screen TV, two reading chairs and a desk. Also upstairs is a third cozy bedroom with a plush full-size bed overlooking the mountain landscape, its own flat TV and a "bird's nest," which has proven to be a children's favorite. The cozy bathroom with its frameless glass shower is also located upstairs.

Amenities include high-speed internet (over 500 Mbps), Wi-Fi, 4 large top-of-the-line smart TVs, full-sized, high-efficiency washer and dryer and a gas grill.

You can also enjoy miles of impressive in-club hiking trails with or without your pet (on a leash!). Please make sure to receive host approval and pay additional pet fee.

The area surrounding Hound Ears Club is known for the 'Two R's' - relaxation and recreation. Once rested, you may be ready to explore the great outdoors by hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing and kayaking, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, tubing, or skiing, whether the Blueridge Parkway, Bass Lake, Trout Lake, Julian Price National Park, Tweetsie Railroad or Grandfather Mountain.

Lovely A-frame in the mountains

We loved staying in this charming cabin. It’s in a beautiful location and close to everything we wanted to visit. Arion was welcoming and responded quickly if we had questions. Our kids loved playing in the little nook upstairs. The fireplace was perfect after some chilly days on the hiking trails. We would definitely stay here again.

The perfect family getaway

We had the best time @ the Chalet Alpine! So clean, cozy & relaxing. Close enough to sking, restaurants, Lowes foods but still secluded enough to be an authentic cabin experience. Loved being within the Hound's Ear Club community, we got ice and snow on check-out day and heard the roads getting salted and cleared bright and early! Games, well stocked, nice towels and comfy furniture. The host were super nice and available for questions - another awesome perk! Our fam of 5 give it a big thumbs up!

Charming A Frame Chalet

Location, location, location! This property is in the heart of all the attractions in the Boone, Blowing Rock and Banner Elk area. Gated community provides peace of mind and security. We enjoyed our visit and the amenities provided. The directions and check-in process were a breeze. The security team at the gate were always courteous and delightful. The kitchen is well equiped and the furnishings were comfortable and quality. The only negatives are the 20 irregular stone steps to get to the Chalet from the parking area. There is no handrail so some of us more seasoned adults may need a helping hand. The path is well lite at night which makes a big difference. The 1st floor primary suite is very comfortable, but space is very limited. It's an older Chalet and part of the charm is the rustic nature of the materials and space. Great place that adds to the overall experience of being in the mountains.

Great Mom/Daughter Weekend

My adult daughter and I enjoyed a weekend of rest and relaxation together in this cozy cabin. The first half of the weekend was rainy, windy and cold, but we still enjoyed exploring Boone, then coming back to the cabin to read and chat in front of the fireplace. The second half of the weekend was better weather and perfect for exploring Blowing Rock. The cabin is clean, comfortable, well-stocked and in a very safe neighborhood. This cabin is perfect for a friends' getaway or a family getaway.

An Exquisite Chalet!

From the moment we arrived, we was captivated by the restful ambiance and the picturesque beauty that surrounded us. The chalet's mountain furniture decor added an authentic touch to the overall atmosphere. Every corner of the space was thoughtfully adorned, creating a warm and inviting environment. It felt like stepping into a cozy mountain retreat, a true home away from home. The owners were very responsive!! Thank you, Arion and Wendy!!

Wonderful Cabin

Our family really enjoyed our stay. The cabin is beautiful and located in a really nice community. We were impressed by how well the homes blended into the landscape. The hosts did a nice job of staying in touch and answering questions for us. The cabin is a short drive to both Boone and Blowing Rock, but also feels appropriately remote - just what you would want in a cabin experience!

Great mountain home and awesome location!

We had a fantastic stay right before Christmas. The house has a great setup with the 3 bedrooms, a comfortable living room with fireplace, and a nice size kitchen and dining area. Although it was chilly, we also enjoyed the spacious outdoor deck. The location is perfect to visit both Sugar/Beech and get over to Blowing Rock. Owners were very responsive and even retrieved and returned a forgotten item for us. Five star experience all around!

Charming and comfy. A perfect place for our "college kid" to rest and recharge before heading back to school. We were not able to operate the fireplace. That said- we will plan to stay again and know that, that glitch will be solved. Thank you so much for a great weekend retreat!

Beyond the Musty Smell.. by Jon Z.

Facts from our stay: 1) We stayed 3 nights and paid peak pricing. 2) House was dark, so we began trying to figure out the lights. Switches were labeled but not all did what the label said so that was puzzle #1. 3) Bedroom TV remote never did work so no TV at night in the bedroom. 4) The ice maker had strange crystals in it thus the ice was solid….so we bought ice (note it is a 40+ minute round trip to the store) 5) Fireplace did NOT work- ever as the instructions were simple and clear. 6) Took mildew infested grill cover off and found the dirtiest grill…so never got to use that. 7) Lamp by our bed was not working and after trying new bulb and multiple outlets it never did work so we went and bought a new lantern. 8) The use of the word “Luxe” in the description is NOT right as we honestly could not say anything was Luxe. 9) The amount of cob webs was incredible even as we had to pay a cleaning fee up front. 10) We noted some basic things missing we would have expected to find: NO Kleenex, Broom, Curtains by sink (eary), Light bulbs and other basics. Had about 18 inches to get out of bed do to a large omwar they put in there. The way they listed this cabin, was NOT what we got. To date I have gotten no response on a refund from owner. Here are 2 listings to consider—larger, less $’s, and well decorated. Property #’s 808105 and 1498226. This owner has a bad habit of putting people’s honest reviews back on them as if they are lying or it was their fault!!

Chalet Alpine

Beautiful chalet nestled in a gorgeous, gated community close to downtown Boone, Grandfather Mountain, Blowing Rock and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Chalet is well equipped with everything you need for your stay. Cozy mountain decor adds to the warm ambiance. The upstairs area was a delight for our boys as they felt tucked away in their own space. Host was great about checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. Overall, a wonderful stay we hope to visit again.

Not as advertised

This cabin was difficult and uncomfortable. The owners were responsive, but clearly hadn’t been checking on it regularly. Dirty floors, bathrooms, and no cleaning equipment whatsoever. We had no heat the first night and the fireplace didn’t work. The disposal was broken. There were none of the normal amenities at this price point - empty pantry, no shampoo, cheap kitchen knives and pans. The neighborhood was nice (dog park a perk), and we met many of the full time home owners. The cabin itself, though, was way below expectations.

Great cabin in gated golf course community

This property is very much as described. Less than 15 mins from downtown Boone. Also very easy to get to Blowing Rock and the Blue Ridge parkway. We enjoyed relaxing in the house and on the deck. The golf course is beautiful, although we did not have our clubs with us on this short trip. There are great hiking trails at the top of the neighborhood. I highly recommend.
