Welcome to Mountain Family Lodge!

Mountain Family Lodge is a unique property just off the Blue Ridge Parkway near Boone and Blowing Rock and close to Appalachian Ski Mountain and Tweetsie Railroad. Mountain Family Lodge can accommodate up to twenty-eight (28) guests among seven (7) suites. Three of the suites have alcove rooms with twin beds. There is a living room on the first floor with a queen sofa bed. Nine (9) full bathrooms and two (2) updated kitchens with ample dining options make this suitable for larger groups.

*We do permit large events here, however, we do not assist in facilitating or coordinating such events. The owner permits them on a case-by-case basis, and an event coordinator will work with you on the details. Planned events such as weddings and events that will accommodate large groups of visitors and parking must receive advanced approval and will incur an additional event impact fee of $2500. Please indicate the "Event Impact Fee" when booking online, or let us know of your plans if booking over the phone. We can then contact the owner for approval, and complete the reservation by applying the event impact fee.

*The neighboring Appalachian Mountain Lodge with its nine (9) bedrooms and two (2) cottages can be rented along with this property for large events, accommodating as many as seventy (70) total guests.

Mountain Family Lodge offers two living rooms, a media room, and a pool table area for numerous gathering points. Outside offers a wrap-around deck with outdoor dining, a large covered courtyard, a hot tub, an outdoor fire pit, a nicely landscaped yard, and two grills, gas and charcoal. Parking is available for up to eight (8) vehicles, and the surrounding woods and mountain roads offer ample walking and hiking trails. In 2018 the second floor received an HVAC system with central heating. Since 2019 each bedroom on the first floor now has a mini-split HVAC unit and heat. The entire house also has radiant heat within the flooring to make those winter nights extra toasty.

The interior is an upscale, contemporary mountain design. Furniture is updated, and there are comfortable beds of all sizes. The house has hardwood floors, kitchens with granite counters and updated appliances, flat-panel HDTVs with Charter Cable programming, and WiFi internet. There is one washer/dryer set for guests to use. The comfortable media room offers a screen and projector for cable TV and a blue ray player. The sunroom on the second floor has a large flat-screen TV and plenty of comfortable seating. The primary dining area can seat up to twenty (20) guests comfortably, and each kitchen also has a dining room that can seat up to 14 additional guests. The 8-foot slate pool table, which converts to a dining table, is in a central area of the house with soaring ceilings and a cupola allowing in natural sunlight overhead.
