Welcome to Top Of The Rock!
Top Of The Rock sits above the slopes of Appalachian Ski Mountain, a short walk away from the chairlifts. Located only three miles from downtown Blowing Rock and about five miles from Boone, Top Of The Rock is convenient to all the High Country offers. Appalachian Ski Mountain is less than a mile away, and Tweetsie Railroad is about two miles away. The town of Banner Elk, and Grandfather Mountain, Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, Beech Mountain Ski Resort, Hawksnest Snow Tubing & Zip Lines, and Linville Falls & Caverns are all between 15 and 28 miles away.
The main level has a great room with a dining area and an updated kitchen. A wall of windows looking out to the deck and revealing the vista is bookended by a fireplace with gas logs and an HDTV. The master suite with a full ensuite bathroom, a king-size bed, and an HDTV is on this level. A second bedroom with a king bed, long-range views, electric fireplace, and HDTV shares a second bathroom off the hallway.
Downstairs boasts a huge bunk bedroom with four twin beds (2 top bunks and 2 bottom bunks), as well as a fireplace and an HDTV. The downstairs den has a queen sleeper sofa, a fireplace, and an HDTV. The nearby closet offers a twin rollout bed for additional sleeping options. There is a full bathroom adjoining the den, a small game room with a foosball table and a fireplace, and a laundry room with a washer and dryer. The hot tub sits on the lower level deck, with stairs going out into the rolling, manicured backyard.
All three bedrooms, the great room, and the den feature HDTVs with cable programming. WiFi internet, central heating and air conditioning, and multiple gas and electric fireplaces make Top Of The Rock a fun and comfortable vacation cottage.
Parking Note: You can park up to 4 vehicles in the driveway. Parking on the street is not allowed in the neighborhood.

Very close to Appalachian Ski Mountain. Great view!
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2024
Came up for a football game. Great place with awesome views, plenty of room for 10 people, we had 8.
8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2023
We went with some friends and all our kids and had a great time! Only down side - it’s 32 minutes to Sugar Mountain and on a very steep hill so if it’s snowy make sure you have AWD or snow tires!
6 / 10Average·Aug 2025
We love the location, and the house layout and amenities were perfect, but the overall maintenance and condition of the exterior finishes and furnishings need updating.Also, the rear view, as advertised, was substantially reduced due to overgrown trees at the rear yard, very disappointing.
