Farmstay vacation rentals in Watauga County

We had a great stay at the Plumtree Cabin, it was nice to journey through the mountains and find ourselves in a private Cabin next to a farm. We were also welcomed by a family of 7 deer each night of our stay. Very affordable and comfortable cabin. Will definitely keep in mind for future travels.

I cannot recommend this place enough!! First off the privacy and the view was spectacular. We were greeted by the cutest dogs! We were able to rest and enjoy the fire pit while lying on the hammock. And the host took us around to see his goats, horses and dogs! It was so enjoyable! I will recommend it to anyone who needs to escape from the city life!

This by far the best place we have stayed in the last few years. It was beautifully and comfortably decorated. Had everything we needed. Morning came with a symphony of birds and sounds from the cows in the neighboring farm. Nighttime brought a chorus of tree frogs. The beds were comfortable the kitchen stocked and the hot tub was a great way to relax at the end of the day. Close to fishing and hiking. Would definitely stay again if back in the area.

This place was beautiful, welcoming, and peaceful. We will definitely try to book the same place next time we are in town. The owners were quick to respond with any question and made us feel at home. It was the perfect distance to downtown Boone and so many other things we wanted to do.

Even though it was a short stay for us, I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. Simon’s hospitality was exceptional. He went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Beautiful location beside the River to enjoy from the front porch. Very pleased with the accommodations. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. Thank you again Simon!

This place was an unexpected surprise as to how nice it was. It was perfect for four women going to Merlefest. It was 9 miles away from the festival which was not a big deal for driving back and forth. It was also a welcome get away from the crowds as it is on a mountain with a great view and is pretty remote but not remote enough to be a driving burden. It was exquistely clean. Darren was available within minutes for any questions. The deck was perfect for coffee drinking and visiting in the mornings before facing the crowds. All in all, a great place to stay. The only disadvantage is that the road is kind of rough going up and there are many ruts to avoid. I assume that the neighbors, etal , HOA or whomever will grade the road in the near future.. I know it is hard to maintain a gravel road as we have a lakehouse on a grave road... so I think it will probably be improved soon...

Wonderful, peaceful location. Fully stocked and easy access. The country setting is a perfect way to relax.

This is our second time staying at one of Claudia's cottages. Always a nice get away and be peaceful. Claudia is a great host. The power went out and right away, she messaged us stating she contacted the power company. I highly recommend Claudia's place. We will definitely come back.

Fantastic hosts every friendly quick to respond, we had a fantastic time loved the wagon unique stay very clean . We will be back and recommending to our friends and family !

Lovely home in a pretty setting right outside Banner Elk. Home is quiet, comfortable and just as advertised. We loved hanging out on the wrap around porch. Michael was very responsive. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely go back.

Kapil’s home was lovely. Accommodated all of us, 3 generations with ease. Plenty of room inside for all ages. Inside and out. Convenient to nearlyby places. Wonderful visit. Very quiet and pieceful. Enjoyed fire pit on our final night.

Connie’s place a hidden gem and we adored staying here. It is the coolest “glamping” experience ever and my spouse and I will definitely be coming back for a longer stay!

Very cute place to stay! Attached to the owners property but still secluded away. Perfect for my boyfriend and I who just wanted some peaceful sleep between hiking and seeing family! Would recommend!

Absolutely wonderful little place! Great stay for a couple and their pup! Bedroom: comfortable king size bed! Very roomy for a 1b1b apartment! Bathroom: the walk-in shower has beautiful green tile and bench! It is not really pictured in listing but it’s absolutely adorable! Living room: cute and comfy couch!! Kitchen: has everything you need for basic cooking! Plus a very nice grill outside! Patio: has a private hot tub and great seating for morning coffee with a view! Overall, the place was absolutely perfect and everything we wanted/needed. It was spotless when we arrived and we had no issues checking in. Highly recommended booking! Jen was also very responsive and there to help if needed. Till next time, Boone!

We have stayed on this area in the past but this house is a new favorite. It’s so comfortable and the home is great for entertaining your family. So many great “extras”. Well stocked with amenities. We loved the coffee bar and enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub. We enjoyed hiking and kayaking at Wautaga Lake. We hope to return next year:)

we love staying at this house. it's located close to both Blowing Rock and Boone. we cook and grill a lot while there and we love sitting on the porch that looks towards the pond. We love watching the deer and the cranes. it's peaceful and relaxing.

Our stay at this Airbnb was absolutely fantastic — one of the best we’ve ever experienced! The communication was prompt, the price very reasonable, and the home was incredibly well-stocked — easily the best-equipped Airbnb we’ve stayed in. We loved using both the electric and charcoal grills, and the deck with its stunning views of Grandfather Mountain was a highlight. The location is private yet minutes from Banner Elk stores and restaurants. We enjoyed walking the peaceful nearby roads and playing games from the huge collection, especially Azul. The arcade and air hockey downstairs would be perfect for families. Great A/C, comfy beds, strong water pressure, fast Wi-Fi — everything was spot on. Truly a 5-star stay!

We had the best time, taking in all things: the goats, the view, amazing sunrises, the lovely porch, hiking on property, the peace and tranquility. We had everything we needed inside. My kids loved the upstairs - each having their own space but still together. I can only hope and pray to be back again someday!

This was an incredibly peaceful long weekend getaway in the mountains. This is the kind of place where we hope to come back to some day. Whether you're sitting in the living room, on a kitchen stool, or anywhere on the deck, this place is an escape into the NC mountain ranges. Lizzie is a great host, and we had zero issues from beginning to end. It is evident that a great deal of thought was put into even the smallest touch of things here. We def hope to visit again some day!

This really is the PERFECT place to unwind and have a nice, slow, relaxed getaway. This was my second stay at the cottage but this time with the whole family. We spent our days walking and playing on the property, petting the cats and dogs, and sitting by the bonfire at night. The beds are super comfy...so comfy that I (accidentally) slept in every morning we were there :) We were all impressed with how cozy the cottage is and how well equipped it is as well. The state park nearby is worth a visit - we went on a short 4 mile hike that shows off a couple amazing scenic lookouts.

Cozy home with beautiful mountain views. We had a great stay at the Husky Hideaway! Thanks for allowing us into your home! We loved the front porch perfect place for breakfast (:

10/10 Beautiful, clean, private home in Valle Crusis. Our favorite part was the idyllic views from the back porch! Hosts were extremely communicative. Be aware you have to take your trash to the local recycling center (it's close to the property).

We had the most magical summer stay at “our nest”. The home was clean and well stocked. Yvonne was so kind and left milk, OJ, Eggs and tons of snacks. The coffee bar was well stocked as well. The backyard was perfect for our kiddo and dogs. We sat out at night watching the dazzling firefly show. The location was perfect, close to historic Boone but also close to all the hiking we did. We would highly recommend Yvonne’s home.

This cabin was beautiful and peaceful, perfect for a long weekend trip. Rina was very responsive to questions and was flexible with check-in time as we were traveling across the state. The amenities were great and we made use of the outdoor grill, dining space as well as the fire pit. Thanks for a wonderful experience in our first Air B&B!
