We are glad you enjoyed your stay at Chalakee Lodge CA-2 in the gated community of Echota. There is nothing better than time together with the fresh mountain air and views. Thank you for the review. We hope to see you again in the High Country of North Carolina.
This is a great love condo/cottage for two. Very, very quiet and spectacular view of Grandfather Mountain!

Perfect location!
We really enjoyed our stay in this condo. It's in the middle of it all and took no time to get to Grandfather Mountain, Sugar Mountain, Boone and Blowing Rock. Most of all, the place was beautifully decorated, clean and had the most amazing views. My app read 3,400 ft above ground level from the room. Echota itself was felt safe and was also equally beautiful. I will definitely recommend this condo to my friends.

Please come back! ~Foscoe Management
LOVED staying here! Echota is beautiful, with gorgeous views. The pools and gyms are perfect too. Loved the clubhouses! I had a bit trouble finding my place initially since the road doesnt exist on apple maps, so it took me to a neighborhood 10 minutes down the road. I would suggest using google maps instead. And I also had a few maintenance requests throughout my stay, but these were easy to place and got taken care of!

Peaceful and Beautiful
The condo was beautiful, immaculate and peaceful. The view of Grandfather Mountain was spectacular. We spent hours on the balcony playing Scrabble and enjoying the peace and quiet.The grounds were clean and well-kept. The location was perfect - tucked away, yet close to attractions like the Mast General Store and the Daniel Boone Inn Restaurant. We had a wonderful week-end getaway.We will come again and have already recommended it to a friend.

The property was beautiful with wonderful views of Grandfathers mountain. Very well equipped with kitchen utensils and the grill made cooking fun. The unit we stayed in was ground level and carrying luggage and groceries in was a job. The property had no luggage carts. The pool was too far away to enjoy!
The good Great view of Grandfather Mtn. Condo was nice. Bedding comfortable
The bad Outdoor pool inconviently located 2 mile away in a different development. Condo not well equipped. No shampoo and conditioner and laundry detergent If you are staying longer than 2 days you need to bring everything including toilet paper.
Security deposit sent by check long after your departure
Additional cleaning fees threatened if you do not follow all check out procedures
Bathroom small
Gas fireplace had knobs were removed and could not turn on.
Shower liner had mud or mildew specks on it. Whatever it was it would scratch off with a fingernail.
Washer did not go through its cycle so I had to do a separate rinse and spin to get the water out of the clothes.
My son and I had a great experience otherwise. I just wanted to let you all know for future renters.

Thank you for your review, we apologize for the issues you experienced throughout your stay. We would have happily had maintenance come to assist you with the fireplace and washing machine, and had housekeeping replace the shower liner. We will definitely have this checked into. We are happy you enjoyed your trip with your son and would love to have you visit with us again!
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The balcony is a great place to enjoy the view, read a book, drink a glass of wine and grill steaks! We also enjoy a day strolling the streets of West Jefferson - cute town, great shops and restaurant/breweries.
Very nice, only issue was noise - can hear people walking around upstairs, and very loud Sunday morning roller-bags on the deck outside the bedroom window
Location was great, close to downtown Boone and Grandfather mountain. Great view from the balcony of grandfather! Kitchen had everything you need to cook a quick dinner, bed was comfortable and everything was nice and clean. It was a little hard to get to the location.. the map they gave upon check-in was a little unclear but once you get to the home it’s a great place for a weekend.
The property is beautiful. A view of grandfather mountain and it's within a few minutes of tubing, skiing, and hiking. The kitchen had everything we needed and the grill on the scenic porch is perfect. Gated community which is very quiet and makes you feel very safe. We didn't get to use the facilities on property to swim or work out but we will be back.

Love this place!
The condo was absolutely beautiful and the view of Grandfather Mountain was out of this world beautiful! The kitchen was fantastic and stocked nicely with utensils and cookware. The only thing that I would suggest for improvement is the bedding and pillows. All of the pillows were really flattened out and the sheets didn't fit the bed very well. The bed itself was fine - good mattress. The pillows is really the only reason I'm not giving this place a 5 star rating. Thanks so much!
