This is a perfect getaway location. We enjoyed the privacy and the location is near Boone, Blowing Rock and Grandfather Mountain. Quiet & apartment is perfect. Kitchen had premier cooking utensils, pans, and I loved the extra care with coffee or tea and dishes. Excellent one room for a couple. Walking up to the garden house called Mole Hill is an extra perk. We loved Badger’s Den and the theme from Wind in the Willows!

Amazing retreat
Driving up to the Beavers Den was so beautiful and when we walked up the stairs and opened the door, we were blown away by our first impression. Adorable, quirky, cozy. We were blessed by the pastries, coffees, and having the comfy furniture inside and out. The walk to mole hill was a treat and we spent time on the porch of the summer house enjoying the views Loved it. Will book again!

Gorgeous view from the Badgers Den
Most of the places we’ve stayed in around Boone have been great. The owners of the Badger’s Den had little touches though that made it more special. There were local pastries awaiting our arrival, the fridge was stocked with waters and sodas and the towels were the thickest, fluffiest I’ve ever used! Communication was clear and immediate and we appreciated our hosts being so helpful!

Nothing short of spectacular!!
We had the most amazing stay at Badger’s Den!! The hosts provided a clean, cozy “cottage” complete with little details of whimsy throughout the space (plus a couple of delectable pastries from a local bakery ). Very reasonable pricing for everything included with the space. We will absolutely be coming back!!

Simply perfect
The location is perfect between Boone and Blowing Rock about 15 min from each. It was a nice super clean studio loft perfect for a couple. Tv, coffee/tea, fire pit outside on the deck couldn’t get any better. Communication from the owners was great and welcoming. The property is like a mother in-law suite to their house. They are not intrusive at all but if you need them they are close.

Cozy Cabin Over Garage In Mountains
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Badger's Den! It's an adorable cozy studio apartment cabin over the garage, with great views of Grandfather Mountain! We loved the mountain views and trees surrounding. The cabin was very clean upon arrival, and property owners purchased pasteries from a local bakery for us that were absolutely delicious! 10 out of 10.

Absolutely the BEST!
Badger's Den was just a nice, peaceful accommodation, with ALL the right amenities you could ask for. Our hosts supplied items we didn't expect, i.e. welcome pastries and soft drinks in the frig. abundance of soft, quality bath towels, well equipped kitchen, etc., etc. Couldn't believe that YouTube TV was actually provided! Thank you, Erik and Sharon.
