Vacation rentals in Boone

College town, Appalachian culture, and historical hotspot. Yes, Boone is definitely a lively place! Located in the North Carolina Mountains, the town was named after American explorer and hero Daniel Boone. In fact, his story has been told every summer since 1952 in a show called Horn in the West. Locals perform it live in the outdoor amphitheater above the town.

If you’re not in town at the right time to catch it, don’t worry. You can still soak up history in the form of a timeline of architecture. Restored Colonial Revival boutiques melt into fabulous Art Deco cafes. More recently, streamlined modern edifices have joined in, creating an eclectic mix and a ready-made trip through history.

Meanwhile, the sounds of bluegrass and Appalachian storytellers rise into the air. Explore it all, and so much more, from our Boone vacation rentals.
