We absolutely loved our stay here. Check in was a breeze. The home is beautiful and easy to live in. The kitchen was spotless, as was the rest of the house and the view of the mountain was amazing from both inside and on the deck. Already looking at dates to return here in the fall. Highly recommend.

Hilltop Haven was the perfect girls’ getaway!

Hilltop Haven was the perfect girls’ getaway!The home is well-appointed, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. We loved the mountain views and the convenient location—just a short drive to Boone, Blowing Rock, and Grandfather Mountain.Some highlights we’d definitely recommend:•Linville Falls•Boone Farmers Market•Banner Elk for shopping and live music•Grandfather Mountain for the iconic swinging bridge•And of course, simply enjoying the stunning scenery and relaxing by the pool at Echota Resort.Dining was also a treat—Storie Street Grill in Blowing Rock was a standout for dinner, and Lost Province Brewing in Boone made for a great lunch spot.Our host was extremely helpful, friendly, and responsive. We highly recommend Hilltop Haven and can’t wait to come back!

Family Summer Getaway

My husband, our daughter and son, and my parents all stayed in this wonderful home for a few nights for a summer vacation. It was plenty of room for all of us to enjoy. The home was perfectly suited for my mother who has mobility limitations. The kitchen was fully stocked and we were able to cook all our meals there. The views from the deck and master bedroom are stunning. I enjoyed being able to use the gym so I could keep up with my workouts while away. We didn’t take the opportunity to use the pool this time but it looked beautiful and we hope to come back and use it next time. The home is conveniently located to Blowing Rock, Boone, Grandfather Mountain and Banner Elk (all places we visited during our stay). It was a lovely trip away with family.
