Description Description

You’re sure to love everything about this beautiful  mountaintop home with panoramic mountain views visible from nearly every room in the house.

The open concept great room on the main level has a wall of windows overlooking the view, with comfortable leather furniture arranged around a stone wood burning fireplace and a large Smart HDTV. One corner holds a dining table with two benches on either side, and the opposite corner has a full kitchen with granite counters and stainless steel appliances. Off the great room is a half bath with a laundry closet.


The master suite on the main floor has a King bed, HDTV, and a private full bathroom with double granite vanities and a spacious walk-in shower. The main level deck has a picnic table, gas grill, as well as Adirondack chairs to enjoy the breathtaking views.

Downstairs is a second living area with a pool table, seating area around another large TV to enjoy your favorite shows while playing a game, a full bath with combination tub & shower, and two more bedrooms each with a King bed and a TV. The lower deck has a four-person hot tub with fountain waterfalls and LED lights as well as more seating to take in the views.

Perfectly located atop Appalachian Ski Mountain, close to both Boone and Blowing Rock and every High Country attraction, Aussie’s Den is sure to become your new home away from home! 
 

In early Summer 2015, we visited the North Carolina High Country and fell in love with the view this lot offered. Our sweet elderly dog Aussie was with us, and sadly this was to be her last trip to the mountains. Aussie crossed the Rainbow Bridge later that fall. We’ve named our home after Aussie and we hope that everyone who vacations here will experience Aussie’s sense of excitement, wonder, adventure, and especially love.

Great, comfortable stay! There were 6 of us (3 couples). Each bed was a King size and very comfortable. The kitchen/living room are an open floor plan style with windows & and a porch that leads to big Mountain Views. Downtown Blowing Rock is a 10 minute drive with lots of shops and food options. For awareness only: We did not have bad weather while we were there, but definitely ensure you take a AWD or 4WD vehicle if the weather is calling for snow or sleet. The drive way is steep like many houses in the high country so be prepared!

It's a great location, minutes from the quaint little town of Blowing Rock and the Blue Ridge Highway. The magnificent view can be seen from every window and we spent a lot of time taking it in from the expansive deck. Highly recommend!!

Spectacular Views! We wanted a home that fit our family needs and it was everything and then some. The home is on the top of the mountain with breath taking views and we felt at home as soon as we entered. Kitchen has everything you could ask for. Every bedroom had a king size bed and very spacious rooms. The pool table downstairs gave us plenty of entertainment. We changed our reservation to add another night due to SNOW coming in. Rental company use very accommodating. You definitely will need four-wheel drive if there is ice or snow. The driveway is steep but there is another spot to park a car at the bottom of driveway. Definitely will be back next year!

Awesome Stay at Aussie's Den
We stayed at Aussie's Den, Blowing Rock, NC. Before booking, we viewed 28 pics of the place. Normally, pics make a place look better than it actually looks. In this case, the 28 pics didn't do justice to Aussie's Den. The place is absolutely beautiful - with a beautiful view. I have high cleanliness standards, and this place was absolutely clean. I'd go back again and again.

I have rented from Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals for years and will continue use them because they never disappoint! Their cabins are always clean and nicely decorated and they have so many to chose from. When I can't decide, I love the fact that their staff is so knowledgeable about the cabins and they can help me decide the best one that fits my needs. I highly recommend them to everyone I know!

We are lucky enough to spend our summer months here at Aussies Den. This is our third year!! We love the house, the view, and the convenience to Blowing Rock, Boone, and so many other communities that are close by. We also love to play golf and partake in the many events that are offered, festivals, theatre, markets, and so much more. One thing for sure is that after our days out and about we look forward to coming back to this beautiful home and relaxing on the decks to take in the wonderful mountain views.
