Description: Feel at home when entering through the front door at “Birds Nest at Graf Haus.” An expanse of light-filled windows leads your eye through a roomy living area to the beautiful view of the Grandfather Mountain range. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom mountain house is just the place for a weekend get-away, a winter skiing, ice skating, or tubing trip (5 minutes away from Hawksnest Tubing), or an extended summer stay to enjoy North Carolina's High Country's cool mountain breezes. Don't forget the fall. See magnificent views of the fall foliage from a bird's eye view and enjoy all the local autumn festivals and music. You will love the bright, openness of the large living room with vaulted ceilings, wood floors, gas burning fireplace, spacious dining area, and inviting, well-stocked kitchen. Other amenities include cable TV, high-speed wireless Internet access, whirlpool tub, washer, dryer, central air/heat and gas grill. There are numerous ways to relax.

The convenient location makes it just minutes away from all the High Country’s most famous attractions such as the Blue Ridge Parkway, Tweetsie Railroad, Grandfather Mountain, Linville Falls and Caverns, and Appalachian State University.  If you are looking for winter sports there are several different options from Hawksnest Snow Tubing, Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, Beech Mountain Ski Resort, and Appalachian Ski Resort.

We chose this property because of the picture on the site with a Mountain View. There is NOT a view. The picture is old and needs to be taken down. The house needs a lot of updating. The hot tub is old, the deck needs replaced. We couldn’t watch tv in the bedroom because the batteries in the remote were corroded. I could go on and on….I do not recommend!

Delightful week enjoying the cooler temperatures of the 3800 ft elevation!The cabin was bright and SO clean, we could even walk barefoot without any grit whatsoever on the floors- not typical for many rentals. The home was well maintained. It was better stocked than the included description online, particularly in the kitchen area. It was a pleasant surprise and allowed more versatility cooking meals. The king mattress, pillows and bedding were super comfortable! Loved the reclining sofa to relax on while watching TV or the moonrise. The pics in VRBO only showed winter views from the porch. The property management Roscoe Realty had no summer pictures and said they did not know what the view would look like in summer. We were hoping for mountain views, liked the location and layout of the home so we took a chance. The summer view off the porch is largely obscured by verdant tree foliage. Porch faces southeast. Nice morning sunlight. We didn't use the hot tub or grill, but nice to have those amenities. We enjoyed visiting Grandfather Mt and Lynville Caverns, about 30 minutes away. We noticed & appreciated the many touches of German decor :-) Made it feel more like a home with character. Accurate directions to location, easy self checkin and checkout. Glad we stayed here!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the cleanliness, comfort, and thoughtful touches throughout the home. Your kind words about the bedding, kitchen stock, and German décor truly mean a lot to us. We appreciate your feedback about the summer porch views—that's helpful insight, and we'll work on updating our photo gallery to better reflect the seasonal changes. The morning sunlight you experienced is definitely one of the property's charms! We're delighted you had a great week exploring the beautiful High Country. We'd love to welcome you back anytime!
