This is the perfect place to stay! They have everything you need right here; fabulous restaurant, pool, and your own personal hot tub! We will definitely stay here again. Another plus to this location is its not way up a mountain and still close to Boone. The horses are a plus too to watch and hear in the mornings!!!
Ranch was amazing, peaceful and very inspiring. The BunkHouse was great and very accommodating. People were great and welcoming. We plan to return and hopefully stay longer next time.

Holiday Reprieve
Wonderful accommodations, very comfortable yet rustic cabin. Appreciated the hot tub and fenced in back yard for our dogs. Loved waking up to the cats and horses. Went horseback riding and took a couple trips into local towns of Wilsborough, Boone and Blowing Rock. definitely need to pull up maps before leaving premises due to no local internet! Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the friendly staff!
We stayed at "The bunkhouse" and was absolutely thrilled with everything about our stay! We took our daughter with some friends for her sweet 16th birthday. They wake up open the curtains and watched the horses(while in the warm) and even from the hot tub one morning ! The cats greeted us and stayed on our back screened in porch and was super friendly with all the kids. Hands downs ....a Beautiful cabin and We will be back!
Clean & cozy . Easy access & use for our 80 year old father .
Loved the walk in shower!
Will recommend & come back
Only issue, dog couch cover not clean & jacuzzi lid blocked view
But we absolutely loved the ranch , house & stay
Beautiful area to explore

This place is perfect! The view is amazing with the horses. Its not up a mountain which is perfect for those anxious about the drive. Its about 30 minutes to either Blowing Rock or Boone so the location was perfect for us. Will definitely likely book again!

On the side of the East barn the cabin is located next to the stables. A simple setting and a comfortable cabin with amenities for your North Carolina adventure.
Had Granddaughters their (1-celebtaing 16th birthday). She loves working with horses so the Bunk House was perfect. Loved the early morning views from the big window. It had everything we needed or wanted. If possible, we will come there again in the future. ALL the staff was SUPER !!!!!

The Bunk House offers some of the best of Leatherwood--views of horses just outside your window, surrounded by mountains, walking distance to the lodge/music/activities, and peaceful living accommodations! A perfect surprise birthday getaway for my hubby!

My family and I stayed for an extended weekend (4 nights) recently and were very happy with the accommodations at the Bunk House. An easy ride to Boone and the ski resorts and pretty surroundings if you never want to leave the property. Being around the horses was a great thrill.

We stay at Leatherwood on a yearly basis in various rentals. This year was our 2nd year in the Bunk House and found it needs a good cleaning and lots of repairs. We noticed rodent signs in cabinets. We love this place and would lke to stay there again someday.
Wonderful property/horse farm/gated community. 1 and 3 year old girls loved watching the horses out the window and petting them. Will bring them back for riding lessons when they are a little older. Everyone was really nice and helpful too.
My only somewhat negative response is that it was hard to regulate the temperature in the house for sleeping purposes. My 1 year old's room was always 7 degrees warmer than my 3 yr old's room (using baby monitors to track and it just felt a lot warmer). I'm not sure there's much you can do about that though unless there's just a problem with ventilation.

Reno vation was unnecessary and un welcome
I found this property online. It looks so cozy and rustic I had to get it. I was so excited about going to spend a week here. When we got there it was everything that I had thought it to be in the pictures on the Internet. It was just right for my family we had enough space. The surrounding with the horses and the people were awesome. We also had a chance to get in the hot tub every night which made it awesome. We were about An hour from each big town like Boone but it was worth the drive because it was beautiful. My family will be coming back and staying again.

Really great place to vacation; super cabin rentals, great views, pleasant weather. Not ideal for family reunions or large group gatherings due to distances between cabins.
