The condo was very clean and spacious. We chose the location because of the proximity to Boone.

This cozy little condo was perfect for my family of four. The location was perfect- just a short walk to Main Street, but away from the crowds. We will definitely be coming back!

The condo was clean and in a great location to walk to restaurants/shops. The unit is located on the 2nd floor 12 steps up. The key box is a little difficult to work but after a few tries we got it. If you have lived in an apartment or condo then your aware of individuals walking, running and playing over you early in the am and late at night. I will say it was pretty loud at 6am each morning. The apartment has good lamp lighting through out and has the old air conditioner under the window like at a hotel but works good. The appliances are dated but work. The floors have been updated and the furniture is comfortable including the beds. I do recommend a smart TV in the living room for people to hangout/chat. Mgt staff was very responsive/flexible with check in and out. We booked for a spa wkend at Chetola Spa which did not dissappoint, very close to the unit. Great stay would recommend the location if your ok with families above you making noise early/late doing family things.

Nice rental within easy walking distance to down town Blowing Rock. Appliances were dated and there were no spices or coffee filters. I knew this from the pictures and the intro email but I wouldn’t recommend if you planned on cooking. We ate out so it wasn’t a problem but I have stayed in many vrbo’s and I think this is the only one that didn’t have spices, the kitchen was just surprisingly barren. They did have a small shampoo and soap which was nice. Overall I would highly recommend. The town was very cute and we had fun doing hikes along the blue ridge parkway. Recommend the speckled trout. Make sure you have dinner reservations before your trip every place is full on the weekends.

My family and I love Blowing Rock and we were excited to find a pet-friendly, close to town condo where we could all be comfortable! It was easy to find, the paperwork that was provided was VERY communicative and helpful for check-in and check-out, and the property was so convenient and clean as well.
Our only *tiny* note was that the coffee maker might need to be replaced as it was a bit hit or miss on the mornings we stayed and the shower head in the guest bathroom was short and you had to bend your head back a bit for a complete head washing. But again, VERY minor touches that didn't detract from our lovely stay.
Loved that you could park your car, walk 2 blocks up Sunset, and there you are on Main Street to take in all the shopping and delicious food & treats. We would stay here again as it had all we needed.
Thank you for sharing your mountain home with us!

This property was immaculately clean with immediate access to downtown Blowing Rock and Boone was a mere 5 minutes drive away.The beds and the furniture were extremely comfortable, the kitchen was well- stocked with the necessary utensils and cookware with the glassware showcased in a beautiful glass-fronted armoire. It has wonderful appointments throughout and much care and little touches have been made to make this a fantastic home. The sitting area outside is very cozy and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay . We used the fireplace due to the inclement weather and it gave a lovely ambience to the setting not to mention warmth! Parking was plentiful and overall just a lovely place! If you plan to enjoy all that the surrounding area has to offer then this IS the only location to stay! Thank you to all the staff who made our stay memorable!

Bear Pause was a quiet little condo off the Main Street of Blowing Rock. It was a gorgeous weekend and we were glad to spend our anniversary with family and friends!
- Esther, Posted: 09/28/2021
This place was extremely clean, very well stocked and appointed! You could not beat the location, it was walking distance to everything you could possibly need. We discovered one caveat about Blowing Rock while we were there, in late September most of the restaurants and some shops were closed on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday - not sure if that is normal or pandemic related. Luckily, the unit is about 1/4 mile from the Food Lion, so we just ate in. The place is beautifully furnished and has very comfortable beds. We'd definitely go back (on a Wednesday - Saturday trip, LOL).
One kitchen related issue, since we cooked a lot, the one item I wasn't able to locate was a cutting board, so if you are reading this an about to stay there, you may want to tuck one into your luggage. Also, if you need any spices/herbs other than salt/pepper (located over the fridge with a hodge-podge of other things people have left), be sure to bring it. That's standard VRBO practice though.
