Boone-Area Neighborhoods & Mountain Communities
Every mountain community has its own personality. Some are built around a lake, a golf course or a trout stream. Others offer quiet established neighborhoods, cottages, condos or custom homes with long-range views.
Start with a local guide to understand the setting, then explore the listings and ownership details that matter for an individual property.
Featured community guides
These communities have dedicated guides that explore what makes each setting different. For several, you can also view MLS-powered neighborhood market activity covering homes for sale, pending listings and recent sales.

MLS names and property classifications may differ from common neighborhood names, and some communities may have no active listings at a given time. An empty search does not necessarily mean a community has no homes or no future availability. Verify the exact neighborhood, covenants, location and ownership details of any property.
