Wonderlust Acres

1 site ¡ Lodging11 acres ¡ Purlear, NC
The farmhouse served as Benjamin’s primary residence for six years, providing a never-ending source of inspiration and peace that most folks only experience a handful times in their life. In 2011, Benjamin moved to Boone and began leasing the farmhouse as a vacation rental.In 2018, he purchased the adjacent five acres (that he could not afford in 2004) and began to reclaim the land and creek from the scrubby, thorny growth that had settled on the dormant property.While the property transformed before his eyes, Benjamin felt as if he was discovering this place for the very first time. As he reveled in the excitement and pleasant exhaustion of working with the land, he became increasingly convinced that this special place was meant to be shared. Thus, the concept of Wonderlust Acres as a gathering place was born.More than a business, Wonderlust Acres is an expression of Benajmin’s appreciation for the spirit of the mountains and the endearing communities that they envelop. With the opening of Wonderlust Acres, Benjamin invites you to experience the enchantment for yourself.Learn more about this land:Located just 2 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Mountains-to-Sea trail, and just 30 minutes from Boone/West Jefferson/Wilkesboro, and nestled in a private, open-meadowed valley overlooking a noisy trout stream and large ponds, the timber frame barn is a 3800 sqft wedding venue with the 2 changing rooms which have been converted to 2 glamping rooms. Both are locked off from the main barn structure to allow use when no events are scheduled, and have separate private keyed access, and include streaming TV, a 2-top burner, mini-fridge, and fold-down small full sofa bed for 2 (larger people may need to bring a blow-up mattress/pad for more room to spread out!). There is a men's and women's bathroom with 2 stalls joining the barn and accessed from the outside, along with 2 outdoor showers for longer stays. Propane, on-demand hot water is provided. The other structure that can be rented is the pond pavilion (an additional guest fee is charged over 4 people to accommodate) that features 2 full-size outdoor mattresses, a camping stove, chairs, and large firepit and firecircle. There are picnic tables also on site for use. This is truly luxury camping.

Glamping pods near Boone guide

Overview

Tucked into the Blue Ridge Mountains at an elevation of 3,333 feet, Boone is a classic North Carolina mountain town and outdoor adventure hub. Hiking and biking routes weave through nearby forests and mountain slopes, leading you to waterfalls and epic views. Peak baggers will find multiple high-elevation summits to reach. Rock climbers can access some of the best trad and bouldering in the southeast. You can tube and white water raft on local rivers. Come winter, downhill skiing, snowshoeing, and cozy cabin getaways are the activities of choice.

Where to go

Boone Vicinity

Boone has hiking access right in town at Howards Knob County Park. The Rocky Knob Mountain Bike Park has miles of biking trails (bike rentals are available locally). Local outfitters and guides can set you up for tubing on the New River or white water rafting on the Nolichucky or Watauga Rivers. Just 20 minutes from downtown Boone, the Julian Price Campground on Price Lake has tent sites, rv sites, fire pits, and hot showers. For RV camping, Boone also has a nice selection of RV parks and RV resorts with full hookups and wifi. 

Grandfather Mountain State Park

Thirty minutes from Boone, Grandfather Mountain State Park is home to 13 miles of trails covering moderate hikes, incredible valley views, and challenging routes to its summit. Crossing the park’s Mile High Swinging Bridge is a must. The adjacent Grandmother Mountain is a popular bouldering site.

Linville Gorge Wilderness

Head to the Linville Gorge Wilderness section of the Pisgah National Forest for even more trailheads, peaks, and camping near Boone. Don’t skip Linville Falls, one of the most scenic waterfalls on the entire Blue Ridge Parkway, where the nearby Linville Falls Campground has both tent camping and RV camping options with picnic tables, grills, and restrooms.

Blue Ridge Parkway

The Blue Ridge Parkway is a scenic route that spans an extraordinary 469 miles of mountain curves and vistas in North Carolina and Virginia. You can pick up the Parkway just outside of Boone near Blowing Rock. Headed west, the route takes you through Asheville and eventually to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Winter Destinations

When snow starts to accumulate on the peaks around Boone, locals head to the slopes at Sugar Mountain Resort and Beech Mountain Resort near Banner Elk for downhill skiing and snow tubing. Cross country skiing and snowshoeing is also possible at multiple High Country sites in this area.

When to go

Summer is the best tent camping season in Boone, but spring and fall are also good (weather permitting). The Appalachian mountains put on a spectacular fall foliage show, while spring campers are rewarded with roaring waterfalls. Cabin camping makes this area accessible year-round, though winter visitors should be prepared for snow driving and ice on the roads.
