Experience the Smoky Mountains from 4,800 feet: Blue Ridge Barkway boasts breathtaking views from nearly every room in the house - you can even see Clingman's Dome on a clear day! One of only six properties in a gated mountain community, this spacious three-level home is perfect for family vacations with plenty of room and an abundance of recreational activities nearby.
Spend quality time both indoors and out at Blue Ridge Barkway. The large covered deck gives you the freedom to venture out in any weather and enjoy the rocking chairs and a hammock that's perfect for afternoon naps. Light fills the open living area during the day, and in the evening the wood fireplace provides a cozy backdrop for watching your favorite shows with satellite TV service. The fully equipped, well stocked kitchen makes mealtimes easy. Enjoy a home-cooked dinner around the family dining table, or serve it out on the deck to dine with a million-dollar view.
Retire to the master-on-main with its own TV, deck access, and a double-vanity attached bath. The upper level queen bedroom includes a home office area in the loft for those that need to stay connected while away, plus two twin beds for additional sleeping space if needed. Downstairs, a third bedroom features a bonus bunk bed in addition to the queen bed, a full bath, and a walk-out patio.
Get in touch with nature right out the front door by taking a walk along miles and miles of secluded hiking trails that lead into the Smoky Mountains National Park. If you're hoping to see elk, you may get the opportunity as there have been many sightings of herds that live in the surrounding wilderness. This is your chance to escape and connect with nature, but without sacrificing comfort for your family and friends. Everyone will be begging to come back to Blue Ridge Barkway - even your dog!

Important Property Notes
• Extremely Limited Internet
This property has extremely limited internet service and only supports checking basic email.
• Seasonal Gas Fireplaces are not operational between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
• No Mountain Discovery Pass
Please note that Blue Ridge Barkway does NOT include the Mountain Discovery Pass (the included Biltmore Ticket, Skiing Pass, or other seasonal activities). We hope that you enjoy the low rental prices and beautiful views, even though these gifts are not included at this property.
• 4WD or AWD Required
Often the best views in WNC are the hardest to get to. The property you are staying at requires a 4WD or AWD vehicle to access year round due to the steep driveway. Please ensure that your vehicle is properly equipped and the 4WD/AWD feature is engaged before attempting to access the property. Vehicles that are not equipped with this feature may incur service charges for towing if they get stuck, or for repairs to the driveway necessitated by a 2WD vehicle spinning for traction. Please ensure your vehicle has sufficient clearance as well (i.e. SUV, Truck, or raised sedan). Low-clearance vehicles with 4WD/AWD are not recommended. For the extra effort, however, you are rewarded with seclusion, beauty, and a lot of fun just getting there!
• Travel Insurance Recommended
Due to the location of this home, any inclement weather in winter may render it unreachable. We highly recommend guests consider travelers insurance for this property as there are no refunds for weather.
• Noise Ordinance
Blue Ridge Barkway is located in a quiet community where noise travels at night. This home is under a noise ordinance between 10 p.m. and 8 a.m. and has a very low noise tolerance. It is not suitable for groups that are looking for late nights of celebration on the back deck. The good news is that we have many properties that offer seclusion, so if moving indoors at 10 p.m. is an inconvenience for you, please give us a call and we will help you find the perfect property to match your needs!
Property Cancellation Policy
Please note that this property’s Non-Refundable Period is 31 days prior to arrival. If your reservation is made within this period, it will be non-refundable from the time of booking. Cancellations are permitted outside of this period, per our
vacation rental agreement. We encourage you to consider travel insurance to help protect your vacation investment against the unknown!
