Testimonials

Dear Terri and Paul,

We love staying in B&Bs! Boulder Ridge is truly one of the loveliest ones we have ever found! The setting is awesome, of course, but the suite itself is such a gem!! So many lovely little touches made our stay here truly wonderful. And we loved having our breakfast in the bistro with that inspiring view laid out before us!We also appreciated all the wonderful tips you gave us for places to eat, hiking, shopping, etc. You were the penultimate hosts! Thank you for everything, and should you find yourself in Raleigh, we’d love to fix you breakfast.

It was a wonderful anniversary gift just being surrounded by peace and beauty.You both have done an amazing job with your home – what a gift to share it with others.

Dear Terri and Paul,

We are so thrilled to be back in Brevard, NC again this year. The few days we stay here will be on our minds all year: (peace and solitude).In the land of waterfalls, you are the King and Queen. Thank you so much for the little extras for my wife on our anniversary – your kindness is definitely appreciated.We are glad to hear Paul is well as he as sick last year when we were here. Don’t let him go camping again. Best wishes and continued happiness at Boulder Ridge.4th Anniversary together,

Nath and Tammie, Simpsonville, SC

P.S. Now I know that all dogs smell like yours – like lavender – in paradise.

We had only a one-night stay but it was worthy it, for sure! On top of the mountain, the sunset, the fog in the French Broad river valley before and after sunrise was tremendous for a wanna-be photographer. Thank you so much for your friendliness and hospitality.I loved the conversations! And the dogs and your granddaughter, Morgan – a very special young girl!

Bob and Susan, Greenwood, SC

Being born and raised in the “Big Apple”, N.Y N.Y. let me tell you, it is quite a change. The pace, the people, it is like I am in another world. It took me a few days to get acclimated. The solitude, mountain view, the leaves turning, changing color, your mountain, and husband’s craftsmanship…unbelievable. This whole geographical scene is like a postcard or something out of the movies. It’s amazing where a 2-hour plane ride can take you. Where else can you see white squirrels? At least you don’t have to go back to the hustle and bustle of N.Y. Enjoy God’s country. Thank you for a home-like stay and your kind of hospitality. May God be with you always.

Sincerely,Joan, Karl, and Johnathan, Long Island, NY

Terri and PaulWhat a great place to spend life. One of God’s truly amazing creations. David and I had an awesome time. I can’ t believe we have waited so long to come here.

David and Diane

P.S. Don’t forget to take some time to enjoy and relax!!

David could not have found a more gracious and enthusiastic couple with whom to collaborate to make our Ruby Anniversary such a memorable and special time!You went the extra mile with flowers and food. We enjoyed the suite and furnishings and that welcoming tall shower alcove after the hot and busy day in Brevard. You will forever be carried in our memories and hearts for sharing in our God-Blessed weekend.This place is a little bit of heaven on earth, beauty and harmony, kindness to people and animals, may

God bless you as you have blessed us.Elizabeth

Thank you for wholeheartedly embracing the challenge of making our anniversary and our stay such a special time. You are delightful hosts. May God bless you in all your endeavors and Boulder Ridge as you continue to bless those He sends to you.

David

Dear Terri & Paul:

Me and Dad had a great stay here. He kept saying, “This is so much better than a bed and breakfast.” The view is so pretty and the room was comfortable. I loved the quiche and I hope you and your granddaughters will have made more when we come back. It was so much fun seeing the horses.The house is amazing, I can’t believe Paul built it! I hope to see you guys soon.

Thank you,Rhiannon & Doug

P.S. The White Squirrels = Awesome!!

Dear Terri & Paul:

What a lovely surprise. When we stopped at the welcome center, looked at the possibilities and called you. Thankfully you had an opening. Your mountaintop retreat is just what we needed. This is our first B&B experience and better than we could have imagined. The apartment had everything that we needed. Thanks for sharing your mountain with us.

Steve and Lila – Piedmont, SC

Terri and Paul:

We truly enjoyed our stay at Boulder Ridge. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. One of the best parts of our trip was just being around the house getting to talk to you guys!! We really enjoyed all of the places you recommended to visit and eat!! Our only regret was that we could not stay longer!

Thanks so much for everything!! Ally and Tom

Terri and Paul:

Great location, great views, excellent food and company. Very much enjoyed our stay here, look forward to returning. Highlights: Fantastic Hikes, Beautiful Scenery, Great Hosts.Our 3rd anniversary together.

My visit with Jenny at Boulder Ridge was perfect. We plan to make a return trip as soon as we can! I have enjoyed getting to know you both and thank you for taking the time to chat over wine in the afternoons.I will tell everyone I know about this great find in case they are looking for some place exceptional to spend time.

Thanks again, Lora – Savannah, GA

Dear Terri & Paul:

Thank you for making my first B&B visit wonderful. The breakfast was wonderful and fresh. The scenery was great too. Your dogs are all quite funny and have a different attitude. Thank you for showing me the horses and letting me feed them. You two certainly have your hands full up here with everything. I hope we can come back up for the end of October to see the leaves change. It would be cool though if we came for Christmas. Thank you for welcoming us to your house/B&B apartment. I look forward to coming back soon.

Jenny – Savannah, GA

Terri and Paul:

Thank you so much for the very relaxing weekend, We enjoyed our stay here – the wonderful suite, the breakfast – everything was superb! Thanks for your hospitality,

Brian and Marie – Avery Co., NC

Dear Terri & Paul:

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! We will be back and tell our friends about you most definitely. Terri – I knew when I talked with you on the phone before we arrived that it was going to be a good weekend. And of course, not surprisingly our first night there you welcomed us into your home. Unlike most B&Bs we actually got to know the owners and their family (funny 4-legged as they are) and the rest of your family. We are so blessed that you shared them. Getting to know the owners makes the difference between your B&B and others.We wish you all luck and love. Please hug your dogs for us every once in a while because you know they just don’t get any love at all! (yeah…right!)Please know that you are welcome in our home anytime you come over to our little slice of the world. Thank you again for a great stay, great food, and a great visit.

Love,John and Daphne – Cary NC

You have captured the essence of the Blue Ridge – serene beauty, serene calm; friendship, warmth, splendid food, a comfortable bed – all in a breathtaking mountaintop home. Even the dogs are capable of appreciating my “campfire” stories!I was in need of this. Thank you so very much – I hope to return.

The very best to you,Margaret – Chicago, IL

Terri and Paul:

Thank you for providing us an exquisite retreat to escape to as we continue through everyday life. A place set in the mountains amidst Mother Nature’s beauty, although foggy this day. The beauty still remains for us to enjoy another time. Peace, quiet, and tranquility is found here which the two of us enjoy and will return to be blessed by it again.

Happy New Year! Don and Nicki

Dear Hosts, Paul and Terri:

Happy Thanksgiving! We enjoyed this great place you-all have up here. The mountain display the handywork of our God!
