Not much for us to recommend.

It is out dated but we kinda like that mountainish vibe. We read all the reviews and did our research prior to coming we normally rent a house when we come but decided against this year. There's a game with ping pong table, air hockey, piano, pool table and other stuff. Location is great. The heaters aren't the strongest but it was comfortable. Right next to Fred's store which everything is marked up so stop at the food lion and load up to save a few $ or not .

Stayed on this property for a family reunion. At the "big house" aka Mountain View Lodge:…read more Window units only in the upstairs bedrooms. One window unit contained dead animal, rendering it useless. No air conditioning in the common areas and even though it's in the mountains, it was humid and miserable. Multiple water leaks. Bushes outside totally overgrown and three people were stung by hornets at the front door (on different days). Laundry room in house is accessible by all cabins on the property, so people you don't know can be on the property washing clothes any time. At Blue Ridge Cabin, the two bedroom cabin with loft has one window air conditioner which is not sufficient to cool the cabin. The shower is about 30 inches wide and the shower head is basically fixed, so there is no escaping the water. This cabin is advertised as having closets in both bedrooms, but that is not true. There is no closet in the second bedroom, and no mirror, and no place to put a suitcase. Only a bed and a nightstand. We stayed here for three nights living out of a suitcase on the floor. Sheets were 180 count, 50% polyester, and vintage. They came off at night because the elastic on the fitted sheet was totally dry rotted. Futon would not fold out to a bed (broken) and as a couch it was not comfortable, since the mattress hung off the frame despite my attempts to straighten it up. Availability calendar showed no one in the units on the days before us, but they came to mow and weed eat before I was awake the second morning (why didn't they go ahead and mow before we came?). No broom in the cabin so could not sweep up all the grass clippings we tracked in. Floors turned our socks black. This property has great potential as an area for family reunions but desperately needs improvement. Overall, in its present condition, I would never recommend this property.

I would highly recommend these cabins to anyone who wants to experience the Blue Ridge Parkway but…read moredoesn't want to commit to renting a cabin for a week and spending an insane amount of money. I was surprised these cabins rent for $135 per night (with a $35 cleaning fee per stay, and $10 pet fee) year round. We stayed two nights and had a great time. The cabin was well stocked with just about everything we needed minus food. The Jacuzzi tub was a wonderful addition. Cabins are pet friendly and we were left a goodie bag for our "fur babies". The Mountains-to-Sea trail runs at the end of the driveway to these cabins, which was a nice bonus to be able to go on a nice hike that close to our cabin.

She made what can be a complicated process a breeze. I couldn't recommend Dusty more highly. I posted this on Dusty Washburn's professional Facebook page just after she helped us with our property purchase in Blowing Rock/Boone. I'm posting it now on Yelp because we just sold our home in a different part of the state with a realtor there. What a different experience. Details were overlooked, our requests were ignored, the "professionals" recommended to help with painting and due diligence items turned out to be personal friends of the realtor and were, well, not good. That experience made me "reappreciate" Dusty's professionalism and expertise all over.

Very clean, nicely furnished and easy to get to. We are at one of their cabins to night, lots of snow outside but roads fairly clear. Housekeeping has called to check on us. These folks just go beyond what most companies provide. The view is gorgeous. White wonderland. Can't wait to go ski Beech Mtn in the morning and sugar Mtn the next. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves the mtns, lakes and Gorgeous country.

My best friend, her husband, and I stayed in two of their beautiful, cozy rooms in the days leading up to Christmas. The inn grounds were lit up with sparkling lights as I approached the inn, and I was blown away by the incredible Christmas decor throughout the entire establishment. Debra and Ken were incredible hosts who paid attention to all of the details, ensuring we had the most comfortable stay. We had so much fun exploring all that the outdoors have to offer, and I was dazzled by the surrounding Christmas tree farm. Meadowsweet Gardens Inn is a true treasure, and I look forward to meeting friends for more adventures there soon!
