8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
The layout of the house was very family friendly and filled with games we all enjoyed. We all also enjoyed the gas fireplace, hot tub, and large areas to gather. The pool table is not in working order as the table is not level. Cleanliness was lacking in places with dust on furniture and the decor. The main floor was always warm, but downstairs was almost possible to heat. We were glad there were portable heaters! The kids bedroom has an outlet that appears to be faulty. There was also a HUGE problem with stink bugs!!

I stayed at this property with my husband, dad and two kids. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The decks are great. The kids enjoyed pool/air hockey and the hot tub. Location was great - easy access to Blowing Rock and trails in the area. There isn’t great WiFi but that is very well communicated and it was great to unplug a bit. We’ve stayed in the area for a week each of the past five years and this house is our favorite - we would definitely rent again.
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2022
We had an amazing time on our long weekend get-away in this cabin. The views from the deck are breathtaking. The cabin is fully stocked with everything we needed. Be aware that the WiFi connection provides little to no internet access and there’s no cell service (not a big deal in most cases, but don’t plan on being able to work from the cabin), but the cable is satellite and worked flawlessly. We found plenty to do in the area. Downtown Blowing Rock was only about a 10 minute drive away. Lots of shops, restaurants, outdoor seating areas. We also found a few of the waterfalls that were outlined in the guest binder in the cabin. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return!
6 / 10Average·Jan 2023
Property was ok. But the first issue was that they delayed a day of arrival for a problem a rental management ON THE MOUNTAINS should have taken care of! ( We heard a week prior about the storm an d precaution we needed to take care of) And than when we arrive, we noticed at night stink bugs throughout the tv area and dining area. Crawling tables and sofas and tv screen. We took care of it that night with common pesticide. ( just to not complain) Did not work! Spoke to Lorie from blowing rock rentals and her answer was “I am sorry but it’s common in the mountain houses” they come from the walls😂😂. After she offer pest control.
We have stayed in dozens of mountain houses and this was the first time we experience this. And ok … let’s say this year was an issue… but 30 a day WOW! That’s infestation.
They offer a pest control! We complied! The pest control said we needed to wait 2-3 days to see them gone. 3rd day still, we picked up 30 from table, sofas tv and even bed! Disgusting… absolutely Disgusting!!
Those bugs kicked us out from that house. It was NOT an early check out! When I called to say we were checking out aggravated from bugs( 2 days ahead and wanted a refund from a problem from day one…. So house should not hav been rented!!!!) they said sorry….Your checking out early …we did what we could!
Very disappointed!!! Because our friends did not sleep, waving stink bugs all night long and listening to them bang on the windows!
I have been a VRBO member for the past 10 years with great reviews! I got to say that this is the first time a management company has dropped the ball!!! SHAME ON YOU BLOWING ROCK REBTALS and OWNERS of BOONDOGLE!!! Gayle and Lorie you need some customer service manners, and skills!! And lastly they did not refunded my money from stink bug problem.
If you are looking to rent this home ask for a certificate of clear pest control infestation . We do not want you to experience what we lived. And ask the cleaning crew or properly management????? We left a close jar with the last 15-20 bugs we collected the morning we left. A period of 2-3 hours before departure.
