We booked the chalet with fireplace. Reception was gracious and accommodating, allowing me to do some printouts from my laptop. The chalet was clean and comfy, although if simply updated re decor it could have been a knock-out. Location was fine, just a couple of minutes from main street Blowing Rock. It was just as advertised, and quite satisfactory. Was... more

We got there after a long day of traveling. It took the gentlemen forever to check us in, (When I made the reservations a few days prior by phone, he left me on hold for 5 minutes or more, but I could hear him in the background trying to figure out what to do). The place looked very cute on... more

I am very sorry for your experience. In a pinch, our maintenance man will occasionally handle a reservation/check-in. I sincerely apologize that he did not explain how to operate the heat/ac (which does have individual controls in each room), or the fact that we offer a mattress topper if you prefer a softer bed, or the time our office opens...

We really enjoyed our weekend stay at Alpen Acres! The location is perfect between Boone and Blowing Rock, just seconds from the parkway! Room was spotless and beds were way more comfortable than most motels. The owners are so nice and go out of their way to help you. Located on a quiet hilltop the motel is well lit at... more

Located up on a hill away from noisey traffic, this little motel resides among the trees. It is conveniently located between Blowing Rock and Boone, NC. I arrived in Blowing Rock late that Saturday, and rooms were hard to find. Luckily, a nice person at another place I checked was kind enough to call ahead to Alpen Acres to see... more

We are still talking about the wonderful vacation we took in August at Blowing Rock! Alpen Acres was just what we wanted to add to our experiences. It is called a motel, but it reminded me of an old-fashioned motor lodge in which you can drive up to your room and park in front of it. The motel is located... more

We stay at Alpen Acres 2 to 4 times a year. That should tell you that we like the place. It's not the fanciest, but the location is great. It's very clean and well-kept. The folks there are very friendly and helpful. Everything in the room is functional and in working order. We'll be back there soon. Don and Laura... more

My wife and I have stayed at the Alpen Acres many times and each one has been a great and memorable experience. It's private and extremely comfortable and has a family feel to the place. The rooms are well decorated and have all the essentials: TV/Cable and airconditioning with fresh coffee available at the front desk every morning. It's brilliantly... more
