ABOUT SWEETGRASS
Within the neighborhood is Boone Fork Creek, which winds through the middle of Sweetgrass and has been designated as a North Carolina Outstanding Trout Stream.  Just a little ways up the road at the heart of SweetGrass is the 22-acre lake fed by Boone Fork Creek! Bring your own canoes/kayaks and paddles to enjoy this beautiful lake!

Sweetgrass features beautiful mountain vistas, a lake and stream, and miles of pristine mountain trails which are perfect for hiking, riding, and biking.  At Sweetgrass you'll find a mountain playground like no other.  Here, each season brings with it something spectacular. The springtime is ablaze with wildflowers, the summers are filled with warm days and cool nights which are perfect for daytime outdoor adventures and evenings around the firepit, fall's foliage is absolutely stunning, and the snows of winter transform the area into a picturesque winter wonderland. 

Each season is perfect for outdoor recreation, but there is much more to do here than simply enjoy the splendor of nature. There are also a variety of festivals, community events, upscale shops, and gourmet restaurants to enjoy in Blowing Rock. Combining the welcoming mountain living of Sweet Retreat, Sweetgrass, and Blowing Rock will enable you to enjoy a lifestyle that is unrivaled by that of any other High Country location.

Located just 2 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, 12 minutes from Main Street Blowing Rock, 15 minutes from Tweetsie Railroad Theme Park and Appalachian Ski Resort, 20 minutes from Boone and Grandfather Mountain, 30 minutes to Hawksnest and Sugar Mountain, you may find that Sweet Retreat  is your new favorite place to call home.

Another great stay!
This was our 4th stay at this property and we once again had a great stay! The house was as clean and well appointed as we have come to expect. The service from BRMR was exceptional as it always is. The location cannot be beat. There's really not much more that needs to be said. We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed time on the parkway, in town, and relaxing by the outdoor fireplace. we look forward to returning again soon!

Perfect family time in the snow!
Perfect....as always! This was our 3rd stay at this home and we found it clean and well appointed as always. The outdoor TV and grill have recently been replaced and we greatly enjoyed them. We received a few inches of snow during our stay and the kids enjoyed some time sledding while the adults relaxed by the outdoor fireplace and cooked meals in the well stocked kitchen.We will certainly return again!

Quick getaway
We arrived on a Friday evening left on Monday morning the house was great. Five bedrooms and 3 bathrooms the two downstairs rooms had a full bed on bottom and single bunk above. Our friends with small children thought the layout was great. They had everything you'd need for a quick getaway we explored blowing rock and boone which it's close to and went to ski beach was a fun time would definitely stay again thanks for having us.

Right off the parkway!
We had a great stay. The house was very clean and well appointed. Everything we needed to cook gourmet meals was easily found in the well stocked kitchen. We used the outdoor tv and fireplace daily while enjoying the fall air! The house is 2 minutes from the parkway and about 10 from blowing rock (take the parkway instead of 22. It's a beautiful drive). The location couldn't be more convenient and the kids loved the air hockey table. We will definitely return!! It's worth noting that several of the bedrooms do not have drawers for storing clothes (but there's plenty of closet space!).There is also a decent amount of construction going on within the sweet grass neighborhood but it seems to shut down by cocktail hour so noise wasn't an issue. We highly recommend the beautiful home!

Beautiful home away from home
The house is beautiful! There was plenty of room in the living room for 4 adults and 2 small children to enjoy time together. The room downstairs was perfect for our 2 little grandsons to play. We really enjoyed the wood burning fireplace on the main deck. The beds are quite comfortable, as well. The house was stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals and enjoy a week together. Since it was on a street with no outlet, the boys were able to ride their scooter and bike in the street (with adult supervision of course) as well as take rides in the wagon pulled by Mamaw and Papaw. There were a couple of areas near by where the boys were able to try their hand at fishing. The kids and grandsons also took a canoe ride at a rental place nearby. (By the way, the rental place had a good price on firewood). All in all, it was a fun experience for the whole family. I would definitely stay there again. The area is so wooded, I'm sure it would be beautiful in the fall (we were there in June). By the way, we saw deer and a family of turkeys from the house.

Great house with beautiful outdoor space
We had 5 people in our party and it was the perfect size for us. We liked that there was an outside fireplace and we used it every night. We stayed here as our base for riding motorcycles on the beautiful roads and being so close to the BRP was a plus. Paved roads to the house is always a plus when on bikes. Overall great house and location will stay here again for sure.

Wow wow wow! We had such a memorable vacation. We were two families with little kids. The bottom floor was essentially a game room and the kids were entertained for hours on end. Fully stocked with Nintendo wii and games, dvds, air hockey table... it was so much fun for them. The main floor was all open with a full stocked kitchen beautifully decorated with all stainless steel appliances and a coffee station (bring K cups or coffee) The view is gorgeous, the fireplace area outside was cozy amd more than we expected. There were trails next to the cabin and around the community. the cabin is inside a private community which was a huge plus for us, yet still private and spacious between cabins so you still feel secluded. Can't wait to go back.

This home is absolutely beautiful. Easily accommodated our family with three different "sleeping floors" so there was plenty of room. A little difficult to find the house within the gated community - DO NOT USE GPS - follow the rental company's instructions and you will be fine. Well appointed with anything you needed to cook and that fireplace on the deck with tv is incredible. If you rather be inside the stoned wall fireplace is just as nice too! Awesome mattresses. Lots of board games and plenty of property to explore within the community.
