Thank goodness we were on the 3rd floor because the floors were quite creaky. Water pressure was horrible . We smelled smoking a few times and lastly, the pull out sofa bed was terribly uncomfortable and it made horrible sounds everyone she moved- she’s a small 11 year old. Our king bed was very comfortable. The staff was super kind & helpful!!

Popular places to visit

When people visit Boone or any of its surrounding areas "artsy" comes to mind. This image resembles the area perfectly. From the front, this man is smiling while concentrating on his painting. Art is a huge part of the Appalachia culture. The town is full of color from spray paint on walls to artsy shops at every corner. It embodies many of the values a lot of people in the town encompass such as happiness, craft fulness, and resourcefulness.

#appalachianechoes This picture is of the Mystery Hill sign in Boone. I took this picture because it reminds me of the time my parents brought me to Boone for a short vacation. We visited Mystery Hill and it is something I think about when describing this region. It is a picture that I feel many people from the region have in their minds from a previous visit or an outsider may feel for a similar place from their hometown. I chose to only take a picture of the sign because it is more direct than a picture of the Mystery Hill building.
