Caleb's Outlook is a great place to relax and enjoy the Blue Ridge Mountains. Some upgrades have been done again this year: more lighting, more space opened up for guests, fresh paint, and a 2nd full bathroom. It sits in a secluded, quiet neighborhood outside of Blowing Rock. With the high elevation and cool breeze blowing through the trees, you will experience an invigorating sense of peace as you sit on the deck while enjoying a nice cup of coffee in the morning or a grilled burger in the evening. From the living room and both back decks, you have a wonderful mountain view, which changes with the seasons. In the spring (starting in late April) and on into the summer you have lots of green foliage to enjoy, along with Grandfather Mountain views. In the fall you can will love the full range of colors from the leaves- best seen throughout October. Grandfather Mountain can be seen throughout the year-. During the snowy winter season you are very likely to see snow on the mountain tops, and often right in your neighborhood! You are sitting right on a mountain so you will be making the drive up to your vacation rental which is up at over 4,000 ft- but it's not a difficult climb, and you'll have no trouble driving to the house even in a regular sedan. The road has a slow incline which makes it a very safe and easy drive. Also, the parking deck- right in front of the house- is level and easy to park on.
