This is a beautiful home, comfortable and well appointed. Bedrooms are spacious and cozy. Cabin feel throughout. Relaxation and panoramic views abound. Game room is a definite bonus. A great rental!

Great house for our family with plenty of rooms and a hot tub and pool table for us to use when we weren’t hiking or in town seeing the sights. Beautiful views, secluded location.

Delightful property. Up the mountain yet still close to town. Loved drinking coffee and watching the fog in the valley come and go. Keep an eye open for a mama bear and three cubs!

Thank you Carol for the nice review, glad you got to see a little wildlife while you were here! Come back to see us!
My wife and I took a week getaway together to this beautiful home. The house was clean with breath taking views. Would definitely recommend this stay for anyone looking to find a small piece of heaven within the mountains.
Loved the property it was wonderful sitting on the deck looking out at the moutains we appreciated the good wifi and tv with six friends staying together there was plenty of space for everyone it was great to have town so close
We rent every year. This was the best property we have ever stayed at. Brought my two teen girls and my 80 plus old parents. Would go again. The views were perfect.
The property is beautiful and has great views. My only critique is that the downstairs bedroom needs some TLC especially a new mattress. Our family enjoyed our stay overall. We made memories that will last forever.
This property is located in a beautiful location. We rented during the summer, and I can imagine the beauty during the other seasons. Driving up to the house could be difficult during the winter in certain instances. The house provided plenty of space for our 7 guests and is capable of accommodating more. I highly recommend booking this home for your vacation needs!
We’ve spent The last three years over New Year’s at this property. Our family ranges from one year old to 75 years old. We all thoroughly enjoy the view the hot tub and spending time together. Will definitely return to this beautiful home

Crystal, thanks so much for sharing your experience once again, future guests appreciate and so do we! Wish y'all the best in 2022 and hope to meet you next time! ~Paula, Guest Services
Overall, this is a well-appointed property with beautiful views. The house is easy to access and in a nice neighborhood. Communication with the property management was pretty easy, they texted with us back and forth. There were a few minor issues like light bulb under the microwave being out, the fireplace in basement not working, etc. but overall the house is in good shape. They could stand to mount a TV over the fireplace and upgrade the king size bed in the basement. The kitchen was well stocked and had all the dishes we need for cooking. Hot tub worked great. Would recommend this property!

Hi Kirk!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the mountain views, easy access, and peaceful neighborhood setting. It’s also great to know that communication with our team made things smooth throughout your stay.
We appreciate you pointing out the minor items like the microwave light and basement fireplace—we’ve already passed those along to our maintenance team for follow-up. Suggestions like adding a TV above the fireplace and upgrading the downstairs king bed are very helpful, and we’ll certainly keep them in mind as we continue improving the guest experience.
We're glad the kitchen had everything you needed and that the hot tub was a hit—it's one of our favorite features too! Thanks again for recommending the property, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime
This home was at the top of a mountain. It had stunning views of the valley below as well as of other mountains. The house itself was large. It could sleep 3 couples and two others. It was in great condition. The drive up the mountain was intimidating to some in the group. But the view made is. worthwhile. I highly recommend the house.

Rented the house for a group of friends on a motorcycle trip. House was as described. Very comfortable and plenty of room for our group. The view from the 2 decks is simple amazing. The kitchen was well equipped for our needs. For any motorcyclists thinking of renting for your group this would be a great place, but be aware that the road up to the house is windy and steep. The driveway itself is mostly flat and use of the garage is a great benefit.

Great Family hiking weekend with adult children & family dog
Gorgeous mountain home with full amenities and view! Spacious enough for my husband and I and 2 adult children and their spouses, plus family dog. Close to Pisgah National Forest where we hiked a total of 24 miles over Memorial Day weekend - enjoyed the hot tub. Kitchen was large enough for us to make meals together. Precious memories were made sitting on the porch looking a mountains talking, playing guitars & piano ( available at house), and family meals around the large table. I would recommend to groups of 6 or more people.
The property is located at the top of the mountain and has beautiful views. The house was spacious with lots of common area and plenty of amenities to enjoy ( pool table, jacuzzi, game tables, etc)We had a couple issues and the response time was so delayed as to be unhelpful. Apparently power outages are common and we didn’t know how to reconnect the internet. A response hours later in the middle of the night was so late it was not helpful.The kitchen was spacious but lacked some quality tools like spatulas. Overall we had a wonderful stay and it waswas nice.
