About this property

August Place - Hot Tub, Private, Wi-Fi, Game Table

This mountain retreat will be your favorite vacation spot after one stay. A spacious three-bedroom (plus loft area) cabin with three baths, it is packaged nicely. The only trouble you may have is what to do first. Sink into the relaxing water of the hot tub on the covered porch, show off your wrist action at the foosball table, cozy up in one of the 2 sitting areas, or gather for a sing -a-long by the outdoor firepit. It's private, welcoming, and close to Banner Elk and Boone. During your stay in the community of Mill Ridge, you will also have access to the seasonal swimming pool, tennis courts, duck ponds, walking trails and Watauga River frontage. The warmth and coziness will welcome you the moment you step inside and explore from room to room.

wonderful stay
I was hesitant to book looking at previous reviews but I am so happy we did. Previous negative reviews must be outdated and any problems have been corrected. We booked this home for our trip after arriving at our own home to find it needed extensive repairs. The management was very helpful with letting us know right when the house was ready for us to check in (a little early!) The place was very clean and accommodated our whole group very well. The loft with 2 twin beds was a surprise bonus to the already 3 large bedrooms.

House has plenty to offer. But lacks maintenance and thorough cleaning.
The house lacks regular home maintenance. The oven door came off in our hands. Light bulbs were blown. The gas grill wouldn't get hot enough to cook the steaks we had for 9 people. Hot tub water was pink when we opened the cover. (We called and it was drained and cleaned within a few hours) Towels had holes. Kitchen cabinets had shelves that were falling. Refrigerator pieces broken inside. Trash around outside of house. Broken glass on front porch and around porch. Cob webs on most all light fixtures. Hundreds for a cleaning fee is not being utilized well... also pet fees dont seem to be used for anything either....dog chewed door casing in main floor bathroom from a previous dog being locked up. Basically a nice house that isn't being managed well and kept up for the people that own it. Could easily receive all 5 star ratings. But needs better upkeep.

Property was very nice.
We had a great time with plenty of room. The rooms were warm and inviting. Only thing I didn't like was there was only 1 working tv with cable. The rest of the tv's cable didn't work. Other than that it was a great trip and would like to stay there again.

Nice Cabin!
This was our first cabin rental. It was a nice cabin in a private location with parking enough for 3-4 cars. 3 bedrooms accommodated our party of 8 very easily. A few of the reviews on this cabin seem a bit harsh. We did feel that it could be an excellent cabin with a little more deep cleaning, a few small repairs, and new fire pit seating. Overall though, nice place.

I'd rate this cabin as fair.
We ended up having a great time. With just a few changes this cabin could rent for a higher price and be excellent! The whole thing needs a thorough cleaning. Carpet should be replaced. Outdoor furniture should be burned as firewood! Lots of cobwebs, lots of dust. Kitchen sink and bathtubs should be cleaned with bleach. Bed in bottom bedroom needs new mattress. This is a nice place, but has so much potential! Also, I tried to reach someone to get the door code. I left 3 messages on different phones. NO ONE called me back! The office was closed when we arrived. Glad we didn't have an emergency! Luckily a window was unlocked! We felt uneasy having to sneak in. I would definitely stay here again, but I would bring some cleaning supplies and some chairs to sit in by the fire.
