Neighborhoods

Home to App State, Boone has lots to offer! Great restaurants and shopping. A cute little downtown as well as chain stores for familiar brands- Publix, Chick-fil-a (and other fast food places). We love strolling around downtown and picking up cool gear and then grabbing a bite to eat.

Sweetest little mountain town with lots of shopping and restaurants. They also have a great play area for kids. Beautiful flowers in the spring, lots of holiday lights during the winter and of course wind!

Conselho para os viajantes

O que levar

What to pack

We provide all of the essentials and then some! We provide linens (including hot tub towels), disposable paper products, bath products, cleaning products, some disposable kitchen items (foil, salt & pepper, olive oil, basic spices, coffee & tea), and games & cards. If you plan to ski/snow tube- plan to dress for the cold (the wind can get ya!), if you plan to hike- plan to dress for anything (cold, hot, wet, dry), and if you plan to chill by the fire and stare at the mountains (pack some socks- we have plenty of throw blankets though).
Transporte

Up, up, and more up

Pie in the Sky is located at the top of a mountain. It takes about ten minutes to get to the main road. The roads are well-maintained and not scary if you take them slow. All that said- plan to go to the grocery store on your way in if you can. If you can't- no big deal. We do provide some kcups and tea to get you started and usually leave a light snack in case you arrive without groceries and want to wait until the morning.
Reserve antes de ir

Book beforehand

We recommend getting reservations beforehand at any of the places we LOVE- Speckled Trout, Gamekeeper, Over Yonder. We also HIGHLY recommend getting reservations if you plan to snow tube at Hawksnest. They sell out most weekends.
