This is a very welcoming and cozy home. We enjoyed the spaciousness and comfort of the house, which had all the necessities for our 3 night stay. The location is great, enabling you to get around Boone easily (look for the backroads to avoid traffic). There are many wonderful places to dine and we especially enjoyed The Beacon (less than 10 min from this house). Fantastic food, service and live music! Thanks for a lovely visit - we'll be back!

The Ivy was a perfect house for our girl weekend. There were 3 of us, so everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. The house is fully updated, very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The beds are very comfortable. Bathrooms are super nice, too. The house location is also perfect - just a short drive to downtown Boone and Bowling Rock. Elizabeth was a great host. She makes sure we had everything we needed and also very kind to offered the early check-in. Will definitely stay there again in the future.

We had a great time staying at The Ivy during our couple of days in Boone. The house is in a nice, quiet neighborhood, but is still close enough to downtown Boone and App State that there's plenty to do within a short drive. The home was perfect for us. The house is very modern inside and has everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Everything was as described in the listing and Elizabeth answered any questions we had very promptly. I would happily recommend this house to any family spending some time in Boone.

A Nostalgic Visit

The Ivy - modern and cute-was perfect for my family and me. The entire place was well-appointed and comfortable. We were close to campus and downtown, both of which we visited out of nostalgia. The neighborhood was quiet, and our time in Boone was restful and full of fond memories.

Another Excellent Stay in Boone

This was our 4th stay at this Boone house. The house is immaculate, roomy, and very well furnished. With 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, it is perfect for 3 guys on a fishing trip. The owner was immediately responsive to our communications.
