Reviews
Whitney
This was our second time booking through this rental and both experiences have been fantastic. The Blue Hole Lodge was PERFECT for three families and our kids to have a great trip with plenty of space for everyone. The property is stunning, well stocked, comfy beds, and an incredible view. We would love to stay there again.

Things you need to know
Please note that the outdoor TV shown in the photos is no longer available to guests.
The trails here are for hiking only. Guests are not allowed to bring their own ATV's, UTVs, mountain bikes, or dirt bikes.
This home has one exterior camera monitoring the entryway only, no other cameras are present at the property.
All stays at the Blue Ridge Mountain Club have an additional $25 amenity fee in order to maintain the luxurious facilities and features in the development.
All properties are set up for light housekeeping, including linens and towels. We provide a starter kit of toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, hand soap, bathroom toiletries, laundry detergent, and garbage bags. It’s enough for one or two nights, but will likely not be enough to get you through your entire stay. If you are staying for an extended length of time, you should plan to bring some supplies from home or plan to purchase these items at a grocery store when you arrive.
Homes are not stocked with cooking oils or spices, hairdryers, condiments, coffee, coffee filters, or food storage items including plastic wrap or foil. Our homes come equipped with a basic set of cookware, sufficient plates & silverware for the occupancy of the home, and basic serving and baking dishes. Most homes do not have unusual items such as crock pots or blenders, so if you’re planning a dish that requires an unusual item it is best to bring that from your home.
We provide one towel and washcloth per person that each respective house accommodates, plus a few extra towels if there is a hot tub. The beds are made up with clean linens (except bunks, sleepers, and futons, but linens are provided on-site). If you routinely use two towels after bathing, you may need to bring some of your own.
