Accessibility

Neighborhood

Nestled just six miles from downtown Blowing Rock, the gated SweetGrass community offers the perfect blend of mountain seclusion and easy access to town. Guests can enjoy peaceful surroundings with long-range views of Grandfather Mountain, a private 22-acre lake, and miles of scenic walking trails. The neighborhood is designed for relaxation and outdoor living, with a lake house, canoe and kayak launch, fire pit areas, and quiet parks tucked into the landscape. SweetGrass is right off the Blue Ridge Parkway, making it an ideal home base for hiking, fishing, and exploring the High Country. The community’s gentle terrain makes it more walkable than many mountain neighborhoods, while the natural setting—streams, woods, and open meadows—creates a true retreat atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for adventure or a quiet escape, SweetGrass offers the best of both worlds: a private mountain sanctuary just minutes from Blowing Rock’s charming shops, restaurants, and attractions.

Guest Access

You will have private access to the entire home. You will be provided with a unique guest access code that will be good for the course of your stay. Codes are unique to each guest and will activate at check-in time on your day of arrival.

WHERE YOU'LL STAY

Find us

Most guests choose to get around by car, as the home is located in a private mountain community with amenities and attractions spread out across the area. The roads within SweetGrass are well maintained, and parking is available at the house for your group. Blowing Rock, Boone, Grandfather Mountain, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are all an easy drive, making day trips simple. Plan on a few winding mountain roads along the way, but the scenery more than makes up for it. During winter months, conditions can change quickly at higher elevations. Checking the weather before heading out — and considering AWD/4WD when snow or ice is possible — will help ensure smooth travel. Otherwise, getting around is straightforward and the drives are part of what make the mountain experience so special.
