Description Description

Recently updated home in Hound Ears resort with fantastic central location. With three bedrooms each with their own private bath, this home also features a two-sided fireplace, WiFi and chef’s kitchen to comfortably accommodate up to six with two queens and one king.  


ACCOMMODATIONS:
Main level: Master with king, master bath with walk in shower; powder room
Lower level: Second bedroom with queen and private bath with walk-in shower, third bedroom with queen bed and private bath
 
We came to get away from home for a bit. We went snow tubing and ziplining.

We drove thirteen hours to get here from Miami FL and it was worth it to enjoy the splendor of winter! We went sledding behind the house, tubing, ice skating and snowboarding at sugar.  We enjoyed the cabin so much that we ate all of our meals and spent our downtime here.  The small town of Boone and ‘Peace of Mind’ gave us so many beautiful memories that will forever be treasured. We can’t wait to come back!

 

Rustic meets modern in this recently updated wooded retreat located in Hound Ears Club, just a fifteen minute drive to Boone, Blowing Rock and Banner Elk. While nestled among the trees, the home has a beautiful view from its upper and lower level decks. With level entry and a Master Suite on the main floor, Peace of Mind is also a great option for those with limited mobility.

Featuring a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, the open floor plan of the home allows for a large living room area, where the unique two-sided stone fireplace is ready to light, dining space with seating for up to four, and the best part – a true chef's kitchen with Thermador Professional Series range featuring four gas burners, center griddle and 5.0 cubic feet of oven space. This luxury kitchen has all the accoutrements necessary for the gourmet in your family, with additional seating for four at the bar.

Another family room with a half bath lies just beyond the kitchen, where a large flat screen HD television is available to watch the big game or the latest flick, while again enjoying the unique fireplace! Just past this cozy nook is the main floor master bedroom – featuring a king bed with deck access and a large bathroom with Jack and Jill sinks.

Downstairs you’ll find two additional bedrooms, each with queen beds and private baths, both with lower level deck access, and one with a flat screen HD television with cable access.  There is also television nook between the two bedrooms with a cozy couch.

Comfortable for up to six, Peace of Mind is an ideal retreat for adult couples, or a family looking for a home that feels private without sacrificing access to local attractions like Tweetsie Railroad and Grandfather Mountain. Stay at this serene retreat during your visit to the High Country, and truly experience Peace of Mind.

Peace of Mind is a beautiful house
Peace of Mind is a beautiful house and an excellent match for my family's needs. We had three couples and everyone had a bedroom with an attached bathroom, which made getting ready for graduation at App State so much easier.

Perfect for hiking and college tour
The location worked out so well. We wanted to spend extra time prior to an App State admissions tour and this was close to so many trails, antiquing and King Street. We loved sitting on the deck in the mornings. You can't go wrong with this house.

Excellent Mountain Getaway
We had a great time staying for new years with our friends and dogs! The house is lovely and comfortable and so cozy for the cold weather! The yard is slightly tough for taking the dogs out to use the bathroom but despite the steep hills, the neighborhood is easily walkable.

Perfect for a weekend getaway
I took my daughter and a couple of her friends for a weekend getaway to celebrate her 16th birthday. This property is perfect for families with teens. They had their own space downstairs where they could hang out and all be close together. The house is in a gated community golf community so it was quiet and secure, and you are less than 15 minutes from the shops and restaurants of downtown Boone. The rental company provided so much information ahead of the trip so I felt adequately prepared, and they were very responsive to my emails when I had questions.

Perfect Mountain Get Away
We loved our stay in this cozy mountain home. Perfectly situated to visit Boone, Banner Elk, Grandfather Mountain, Linnville, Blowing Rock or Sugar Mountain. The gourmet kitchen was welcoming and made preparing meals so easy and enjoyable. The home was well appointed and had many comforts of home. The listing is fully representative of what you experience. It was clean and came equipped with basic starters supplies too! The neighborhood was peaceful and gated so we felt very secure. We enjoyed our stay and appreciated the pet friendly accommodations too! We would definitely stay here again. If you are looking for a quiet mountain retreat or a convenient place to stay for hiking, golfing or snow skiing this is the ideal place! Thank you for sharing your home.

Fun Times
My husband's dad hasn't been back to the mountains in 20+ years, so to have all of us together in the mountains were absolutely beautiful. The cabin was exactly how it was listed and having the name Peace of Mind is exactly what we experience. Very peaceful and a beautiful place. It wasn't too high up for our mother, even though she wouldn't look down. Our mom is more of a beach person but wanted to come because she knows how much our dad loves the mountains. But the look and excitement on our dad's face is truly something that we will treasure forever. We truly did enjoy everything and our parents took a lot of pictures. At one point we didn't understand why there was no TV in the room where the kitchen is located but quickly found out the reason. That room gave us a time to reflect back as well as look forward to the future, it gave us the time we needed as a family to really be connected to one another through conversation. Thank you again for allowing our family to make memories that will last a lifetime.

Peace of Mind
Peace of Mind is a hidden gem in the gated community of Hound Ears. A lovely mountain home that has clearly been renovated throughout the bedrooms, baths, and especially the kitchen. Nicely appointed home with all the essentials for a family vacation. It was nice for our grown children to each have their own private baths in the downstairs bedrooms. Very private location set in the woods of Hound Ears. Very convenient to both Boone and Banner Elk attractions.
