Turkey Trot- Light & Bright Blowing Rock Guest Suite

THE SPACE: Enjoy our beautiful, fun newly renovated guest suite atop a quiet mountain at one of the most convenient locations near Blowing Rock. Private entrance with flat, paved parking right beside the door gives you easy access. The suite is a large space with sleeping, lounging, and work areas. The alcove has a cozy queen size bed, with a supportive and comfortable hybrid memory foam mattress on an adjustable bed base with luxury linens and USB charging outlets. Additional full size 6" memory foam platform bed available upon request. Relax in the living area with board games, DVDs, or watch Netflix & Amazon on the 65" tv- you may also bring your credentials for other apps (no cable tv). The desk alcove provides working space if needed and the suite has dedicated high speed internet and its own HVAC/ heat & air conditioning, also has a 4-speed ceiling fan. The bathroom has a spa-like feeling with a low-threshold shower and walnut vanity. Cedar lined walk in closet with extra pillows & blankets. Outdoor ski rack provided in winter months. Please NOTE: We do have several chickens and a proud rooster on property. We do not allow pets of any kind. Park in the upper driveway (all the way around the front of the house) and enjoy flat, no stairs access directly to the studio door.

LOCATION: We are located in a very quiet, peaceful area on a state-maintained gravel road. We are tucked in among the trees surrounded by abundant wildlife- turkey, deer, songbirds- and starry nighttime skies. The Blue Ridge Parkway and many local hiking & biking trails are close by. The Middle Fork Greenway trail and Tweetsie Railroad are within walking distance, only minutes to Blue Deer Cookies, Birdie's Coffee, and Mystery Hill. 5 miles to downtown Blowing Rock, Tanger Outlets and Appalachian Ski Mountain, and 4 miles to Boone. 7-8 miles from two equestrian centers. Excellent restaurants abound nearby and we're happy to make recommendations.
Only 5 minutes from Boone, 30 minutes to Banner Elk, and 30 - 40 minutes from Sugar or Beech ski areas. We are 10 minutes from Appalachian State University and 30 minutes Lees McRae University.

AMENITIES: mini fridge with freezer, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, selection of teas & coffee, cork screw, WIFI, night lights, some paper goods, board games, books & DVDs provided. In the cedar closet you'll find extra blankets, pillows, and iron & ironing board, hangers & luggage rack. Bathroom vanity houses a hair dryer, soaps and shampoos, plenty of tp and some cleaning supplies in case guests need them. Linens are cleaned using scent and dye free detergents and air filters are frequently changed- we are sensitive to those with allergies.

Nice stay!
The location was perfect for us, right between Blowing Rock and Boone. Easy to access both towns. Exactly as advertised. Very quiet location. Parking right by the entrance. We would stay there again.

Wonderful location
We had a wonderful time in this beautiful rental. The location was perfect and the property was well apportioned and comfortable. There was a lot of light and the decor was modern and stylish. My 8 year old son said, “ Wow! This place looks really great.” as we arrived. We would certainly stay here again.

Turkey Trot Haven
We had a wonderful quiet stay up on the mountain. The stars were beautiful! The room was very clean and organized. The bathroom had fluffy soft towels and extra amenities, if needed. The bed was super comfortable! There were extra blankets availble. The location was easy to find and convenient. A quick drive back to Boone or over to Blowing Rock. AAA+++

Quick jaunt to App State
We needed a place to stay while our child was at an overnight orientation at Appalachian. The guest suite was spacious with a comfortable couch and plenty of entertainment options (from many TV options—on a large screen—to board games to puzzles to books to sitting on the swing outside the door and enjoying the mountain air). The suite also had an impressive supply of toiletries in the event the guest forgets something. Additionally, there is both coffee and tea as well as a fridge, freezer and microwave for leftovers/groceries (the plasticware, ziplock bags, and paper plates/bowls were also a nice couch). The mattress was definitely new & though a bit firm for our personal preference, with all the pillows and the couch, we were both able to make ourselves comfortable. Overall, we had a beautiful, affordable stay.

Tweetsie
Stayed here for our annual trip to the Tweetsie Railroad! We LOVED that we could hear the Train from the property, our kids had an absolute blast and it is right across the street from the park. We checked out downtown Blowing Rock for the first time and that was great as well. 10 stars!

Upscale stay in a quaint atmosphere
My husband I enjoyed our stay in this property. It was convenient to some of the best hiking trails and eateries, yet far enough away from the main highway traffic. The room was very clean, the bed super comfortable and the hosts even provided a cabinet of toiletries to choose from. We will definitely consider a return visit when we are in this area again! Well done!

Beautiful escape in the mountains
Jen was an amazing host from start to finish. The accommodation was just as advertised. Very clean. Lovely furnishings. The bed was phenomenal and I’m not looking forward to returning to my own bed and mattress tonight! Such a perfect night’s sleep. The fridge was larger than we expected! I only wish I could leave more than 5 stars. We would love to come back. Thank you Jen and Family for creating such a relaxing and peaceful stay for us.

Clean and Cute
The listing is exactly how described in listing. Very clean, very comfortable. We were able to fit two adults and two teenagers as the owner was willing to let us bring a blowup mattress for one of our teens and there was plenty of floor space for it. It was nice that coffee and tea were provided. We only needed a place to crash as we were visiting nearby App State, and we did not need a kitchen so the coffee maker and mini fridge sufficed. My only complaints are that we could not get the blinds to close and it was VERY bright in the morning. Also, we love to watch college football and could not stream any games. Otherwise, this property is peaceful, clean and feels very new!

Cozy and quaint blowing rock studio
GPS had us “arriving” much further down from the actual place. We were pleased to keep going up as the views kept getting better. When we arrived it was so nice having our own private entrance. Very private and secluded. When we walked in it was very clean and decorated so nice. Very welcoming. The bed was super comfortable as it appeared the owners may sell mattresses so they put a very high quality one on the bed. We would most definitely stay here again.
