Family-friendly vacation rentals in Wilkes County

Our family had a great weekend getaway at this cabin. One of the most well stocked places I’ve stayed at. Plenty of toiletries, cookware, dishes, etc etc. The cabin was very clean at check-in. Easy to use wood-stove, with a wood shed stacked floor to ceiling with tons of wood already cut to use. Host was very responsive. My daughter especially loved the multi player arcade game upstairs. VERY private and secluded location…. Most cabins I’ve stayed at promise privacy and seclusion and end up being very misleading- this one is what it says it is. Plenty of extra blankets if needed, beds were very comfy. Hot tub was enjoyable, grill on the deck worked very well, I have zero complaints. We will probably be booking this place again. If you’re looking for a true getaway with actual privacy and seclusion, this is the place to stay.

Jackie was a great host and very communicative! Ended up getting snowed in and they let us stay longer and even came and shoveled the drive way for us! Only 30 minutes from Boone, yet secluded. Would highly recommend taking a drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway!

Overall our stay was great! The location was beautiful and the house was mostly isolated. I will say that the house next door was unexpected but not a problem. The view was amazing and our dogs loved the big yard. We saw a variety of wildlife on our stay. The surround sound and hot tub were a great bonus along with the cornhole. I highly recommend this location just be careful on the gravel driveway if it’s raining, its slightly steep.

This is a lovely home and provided our family an idyllic holiday weekend over Easter. Everything is as pictured. Howard is an extremely gracious host; always quick to respond. We just left this morning and my 12 year old is already asking when we can go bock. :)

We had an awesome stay cabin was perfect for a weekend get away. Loved the creek behind the cabin. Hot tub was awesome. Will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful time at this little cabin in the woods. It's on a beautiful piece of property and even though there were a few other buildings around, it felt very private. You could hear the stream in the background which was just lovely. The cabin itself was extremely clean and very welcoming. The decor was nice without being too cluttered feeling. Just the perfect amount of stuff. I don't think more than 2 people could stay here comfortably as it's basically just one big room, but for us, it was absolutely perfect! The back deck overlooked the stream and had a hot tub. We didn't use the hot tub and it was a bit loud which drowned out the sound of the stream. Teresa said that in the future, we can ask that it be turned off if we're not going to use it, so that's a great option for next time. Overall, a great place to spend a lovely, restful weekend in Elkin. We definitely plan to come back!

This cabin was a perfect weekend getaway. It was pretty private and the trails and creek were lovely. The hot tub was nice to relax in and the location of the cabin made it easy to visit some local wineries. We hope to be back soon!

Beautiful home and surroundings. It is quiet and peaceful with woods and water. The reservoir was beautiful, the water was warm. Great for kayaking. The location was private but close to Walmart,Aldi and other stores.

Staying at the Parkway Farmhouse was a pleasant experience, and recommended for travelers looking to enjoy a stay in Ashe County in a peaceful setting. The home is well provisioned and furnished for a comfortable, secluded stay.

We had a great stay at New River Lure. House was spacious with plenty of stuff to keep our kids entertained (pool table, ping pong, toys and board games). The trails around the property to the river were nice. West Jefferson is a beautiful area with a great downtown.

Extremely beautiful cabin and location. The view was amazing got to watch numerous deer feed in the field across the street from the balcony. Enjoyed listening to the river rushing by every day. Was able to experience snow the first day and even go to do a little sledding. Steve was very responsive to our questions and the cabin was peaceful and very clean. Great stay and will definitely be back in the future.

We loved the house for our family winter vacation. John was an excellent host and easy to communicate with before and during our stay. We will be back again.

This cabin was perfect for the 6 of us. It was very clean and cozy. It had absolutely everything we needed. There were lots of games to keep the teenagers entertained. Darts, cornhole, giant Connect Four, Giant Jenga and many more. Beautiful, spacious yard with a nice big fire pit. The Kelley’s even supplied us with everything to make smores. We absolutely loved it! I wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Charming would be an understatement. The tiny house suited two of us very well with lots of beautiful outdoor areas to explore and enjoy. We loved the hammocks artfully placed around the property, and also got a kick out of neighborhood dogs visiting us frequently. We wanted to experience MerleFest, but had no desire to be in a hotel, or stay on a crowded campsite with lots of people. We felt like we were camping, but on our own - very private site - perfect! And - Elizabeth immediately felt like a friend. Just a lovely human. Can't wait to return. ❤️

We rented this home for a trip with family visiting from South America. It was their first time in NC. We all really enjoyed the house and it was easy to get to Boone and West Jefferson ! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Great place to stay. We really enjoyed having ping pong, pool and chess available. Very clean and great views. Snowing while we’re there was a bonus.

This is our second time at this cabin and it is one of favorite places. Susan even put up a Christmas tree which was wonderful. Will be back!

Fantastic home! We hope to be back soon!

Very comfortable lots of space very relaxing would love to stay again

We were immediately impressed with this house. Actually even better than shown in the photos. SO clean and well equipped. Plenty of books, games, puzzles and DVDs available. The deck was fabulous. Our only recommendation was add a couple more rockers for the covered area of the deck. We had one rainy day during our stay and sitting on the deck to enjoy it was fantastic! We also made good use of the gas fire table. Susan’s response time when we reached out was close to immediate and helpful. Overall, we had a fabulous week and having such a comfortable place to stay was a huge part of it! Thank you!

A lovely light filled home in a gated community. Very private and peaceful. We saw deer, turkeys and ducks. Since it is in the woods expect the usual bugs etc. Enjoyed coffee on the porch looking at the incredible view. The clubhouse and pool is a 5 minute walk. The location is a good 30 minutes from Boone. The roads are curvy and winding and you often need to stop for deer. We have family and friends in Boone so we were driving a lot. George was very nice and accommodating. He was in the owner’s apartment a few times to work on the property and I barely knew he was there. The WiFi and phone service was spotty. If I didn’t need to be in Boone so much, I would absolutely stay there again.
