About this house rental
Creekside at Poplar Forest is a modern, chalet-style mountain retreat nestled on a tranquil, wooded property with seasonal ridgeline views and the soothing presence of a gentle babbling brook—perfect for stringing up a hammock and slowing down. Gated and secure with 24/7 access, this home offers a private, serene setting while remaining incredibly convenient to all the High Country has to offer.
Located just outside downtown Boone, you are an easy 11-minute drive from the center of it all. Explore Appalachian State University, local restaurants, shops, breweries, and year-round events with ease. Many of the area's most popular attractions are within 30 minutes. These include Appalachian Ski Mountain and Ice Skating Rink, Rocky Knob Mountain Bike Park, Tweetsie Railroad, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and High Gravity Adventures Zip Line & Aerial Park. Sugar Mountain Resort and Beech Mountain Resort are both less than an hour away and offer year-round activities like skiing, mountain biking, and scenic lift rides.
The cabin blends rustic charm with modern comfort. On the main level are warm wood floors and vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings. A large-area ceiling fan keeps the living spaces comfortable. The stunning stacked-stone gas fireplace anchors the living room. There is a leather sofa, a wall of windows, and a TV with cable for a welcoming space to gather and unwind. The well-equipped kitchen has polished concrete countertops, a center island with seating, stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, and a built-in microwave/convection oven. It's perfect for preparing anything from quick breakfasts to full mountain dinners.
Downstairs, the finished lower level offers a relaxed and inviting setting. It is ideal for movie nights and game time. A comfortable leather couch, soft table lamp lighting, flexible seating cubes, and a large beanbag create a perfect environment for binge-watching shows or unwinding after a day outdoors. The space includes a TV, pool table, mini fridge, and board games. There is direct access to the outdoor patio, where an 8-person hot tub invites you to soak in peaceful forest surroundings.
Enjoy the outdoors with wildlife, a picnic table by the creek, a fire pit for evenings, and a gas grill for cookouts.
Sleeping accommodations are thoughtfully arranged for families and groups. The main-level king bedroom features a large double-door closet and a full-length mirror placed behind the door. An ensuite bathroom offers a glass-enclosed tiled shower. Upstairs, a second king bedroom and a bunk room with a twin-over-double bunk and trundle share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. This layout offers excellent flexibility for kids and adults alike. Each bedroom has a TV, a ceiling fan, and a full-length mirror behind the door. A coat rack in the stairwell provides easy storage for jackets and gear in cooler months.
Comfort is ensured year-round with gas heating and cooling on all levels, creating a cozy and consistent indoor climate regardless of the season. Additional amenities include high-speed internet with a battery backup that provides service for up to 5 hours in the event of a power outage.
In winter months, AWD or 4WD is required, and tire chains may be needed on mountain roads. Two dogs under 30 pounds are welcome with your reservation. Additional fees will apply.
Relax creekside beside the babbling brook, soak in the hot tub, or gather around the fire. Head out to explore Boone, Sugar Mountain, Beech Mountain, and beyond. Creekside at Poplar Forest offers a secure, comfortable, and beautifully designed basecamp for unforgettable High Country memories.
