We had the best visit to NC yet. The space was clean, well designed and built, and notably the host clearly thought about what a visitor would need. The view was lovely and quiet. Recommend to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing stay.We hope to return.

Mountain House far exceeded expectations and was one of my all time favorite home rentals. The view is spectacular, and the home takes full advantage with large windows throughout. The home is so well equipped that we lacked for nothing over our 6 night stay. The covered porch area allowed us to sit in the rocking chairs outside, even during rainy days. The inside space was beautifully and comfortably appointed with high quality at every turn and even down to the smaller perks, like lights in the closets, an entryway with a bench & coat/purse hooks, dimmable light switches, and lots of bathroom hooks! The beds were extremely comfortable and dressed with comfy white linens. The bathroom is spacious with plenty of shelving to unpack toiletries. We didn't use the TV, DVD with tons of movies available, games, or the gorgeous stone (gas) fireplace, but they are available. We also didn't walk any of the trails leading from the property, but they are there too! Despite the rural setting, we were only a 10 minute drive into downtown Brevard. The hosts have a beautiful property, and I am already dreaming of a return visit!
