Lovely place to hang out. Of course, the view! Clean, well-equipped. Recommend. A tad tricky to find (follow the provided directions and really watch for the Lauren Lane road sign when you get close).

We had a very nice stay at Absolute High. This was our 1st time booking a vacation rental through Vrbo. The cabin was very clean and spacious. There is a game room and a media room downstairs. There is nice view of the mountains from the back deck. We cooked out on the grill! The location is perfect. It's just a short drive into town and also close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. We would definitely book this location again.

The perfect Christmas cabin

We arrived to snow! The house is located at the top of the mountain and there are gorgeous views from the top of the driveway to the mountains on one side and another expansive, gorgeous view of the mountains and valley stretching out behind the house from the back windows and porches. The house was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for our stay. Everything was super clean and comfortable and it was the perfect holiday retreat.

Great Views, Cottage and Location

The cottage was very clean and very comfortable. The kitchen was well furnished, but a little cozy for larger groups. Full disclosure, we were there for Thanksgiving and there were 4 Master Chefs (in our own minds) trying to prepare the dinner at the same time (LOL). Anyway... we had a wonderful time, the cabin was lovely, everything in the cabin worked and we had a wonderful time. We would definitely recommend this cabin for a relaxing, comfortable getaway, with wonderful views. and quiet relaxation.

Great views

The cabin had great views and was short drive to the town. Overall the stay great, the basement area was mostly unusable because of how cold it was so I would request a space heater. The doors are also difficult to open and lock. Other than those minor inconveniences, the place was nice. Would recommend.
