Such a beautiful property! The house is gorgeous, views are beyond stunning, bed was so comfy and the private balcony was unbeatable. John and Marsha are just lovely, and I can honestly say, they have one of the BEST breakfasts I have ever had at a B&B!! We will definitely be back!

Lazy Bear Lodge Experience

We had a fantastic time during our short stay. I’m sorry we had to leave early due to a family emergency . We do plan on returning as soon as we can. Marsha, your breakfasts were great and the views were amazing. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

Great Cabin in the North Carolina Woods!!

Posted 12 Jun 2024 on Hotels
Very charming 5 room B&B outside of Boone, NC. Very traditional looking cabin but in tip top shape with lots of features and a great view. John and Marsha and their team make you feel comfortable and at home. Internet is great, a pleasant surprise in the woods. Delicious breakfast but the only nit is that I would like some fruit (not just juice) for breakfast. Add some berries, melons, bananas or apples. Will make a huge difference. We would definitely stay here again.

We're happy you enjoyed your stay. We do typically offer fruit frequently but it's not on the menu every day. We alternate our full breakfast offerings between sweet and savory. But thank you for your suggestion!

Couples paradise but not for family Business

Posted 12 May 2024 on Hotels
Didn’t stay was there on family business and my search was put in as close to the college. This place was described as a couples retreat once I got there. Not close to college. Description was not accurate. Gentleman charged me the full price although we didn’t stay 1 night.

It’s unfortunate that you made several mistakes when booking your reservation. You reserved a Bed & Breakfast not a hotel. You reserved a room for one adult not for three or four adults. The room is advertised as a King bed for double occupancy and is not a room that we advertise can have a third or fourth guest. The B&B is described as a mountaintop retreat located in Valle Crucis not in the Town of Boone. However, we do get a lot of business from Appalachian State University (Parents and Alumni) as we are located only 6.6 miles from campus or a short 14-minute drive. This can be easily verified by using Google Maps. Even though you arrived late at 8:00 PM with four adults when we were only expecting one guest, we tried to accommodate you. You stated only three would be staying so we set-up an inflatable twin mattress in the room for you and you said that would be fine. The we noticed the next morning that you had texted us at midnight and decided to stay elsewhere and left the room key at the front desk. Also, you obviously didn’t read our cancellation policy. Unfortunately, the room sat empty on a busy ASU graduation weekend. We wished this situation would not have occurred however your mistakes should not be our financial loss.

Terrific B&B in the Mountains

Posted 21 Oct 2023 on Hotels
John & Marsha are the perfect hosts of this beautiful B&B in the mountains. Breakfast was tasty and unique each day we were there. The room was on the second floor which require a fairly steep flight of stairs. It is central to the area; Blowing Rock, Boone,Banner Elk, etc.

The furnishings and decor were second to none. The attention to every detail, no matter how small, was truly outstanding. The view from the rear deck was awesome. All in all a very relaxing stay.
