Beautiful property!

Absolutely beautiful views! House is spacious and very well laid out. Love the bar/TV room and game rooms downstairs. Definitely get what you need BEFORE going up the mountain. I'd recommend one trip up/down the mountain per day.

Fantastic property! The views are as advertised and the furnishings are top notch. The Sonos sound system throughout the house was awesome. I was especially impressed with the detailed labeling of contents of almost every cabinet/drawer in the kitchen. Definitely hope to return.

Has to be one of the best houses in the NC mountains.

Incredible view from the huge living room windows. Very secluded, can only see one other far away house in the entire area from the view. big bedrooms, everything tastefully put together in the house, clean, 3full bed/bath and room for more in the other common areas. Could easily comfortably accomodate at least 8-10 people. Highly recommend, wonderful place.

Perfect spot

Was everything we were looking for. Drive is no joke and like all the other reviews suggest, make a plan to go out as little as possible. Wind and ice made us hunker down for two days but that was our plan anyway. House has everything. Views are amazing. Perfect Xmas spot

Perfect Getaway

We had an amazing time at this cabin over Labor Day weekend. We went to get away from the city and that is exactly what this house is for - secluded, private, and has everything you need and plenty of space for everyone. Loved that view and are still talking about how great it was! Only things missing were a grill and a fire pit (but just our opinion). Everything else is spectacular and we will be back.

A must stay experience

As soon as you enter this cabin it is so amazing. All the views are breathtaking. My family and I had so much fun we didn’t want to leave. It is a great place to just unplug from reality. This place is a good distance from everything, so a great place to stay if you don’t want to go anywhere other than local area. Outside area was ok for dogs, just wish it had grassy area instead of stones, which tore up my dogs paws. Would love to come and stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was very clean upon arrival. Property "At Last" cabin was exceptionally well decorated, with everything we needed and more for a wonderful, relaxing stay. The views were incredible from the house, and Greybeards service was top notch, even accomodating my request to stay another day with no hassel or complication. Looking forward to staying again.

Best view yet!

We’ve rented several WNC mountain homes over the years and this one was our favorite. The house is stunningly well built, with the most beautiful long range view of the mountains and Lake Lure. The furnishings are gorgeous, the kitchen well appointed, and the beds comfortable. We had our two labs with us, and there was a convenient front yard for them to enjoy. The house is in a very private location, and the paved roads up the mountain were relatively easy to navigate. We would stay here again in a minute if we could. A+++++++

Fantastic Retreat

Beautiful view, remote and safe, wired and tech-savvy house. Sonos in all rooms for preparing dinner or enjoying oldies, Yamaha piano, ping pong, foosball, and air hockey, porches both covered and uncovered. Great hot tub. The only issue is far from town. Prepare to bring all your food, go out once a day or less, and be home by dark. Nice enclosed front area for pets to relieve themselves. When I say we'll be back, I really mean it!

The Perfect Mountain Retreat

Our family of 5 visited this cabin on the mountain and were completely shocked at the beauty around us. Getting up to the house had us nervous. There are a lot of steep hills and windy roads and we drive through rain and clouds to get there but once we arrived, we fell in love with this cabin. It was very spacious and clean and the views are stunning! Each bedroom had its own bathroom, the loft was a perfect hangout for the kids and the downstairs entertaining room was awesome! The kids loved watching tv on the big screen down there and playing all the games in the garage. We loved relaxing in the hot tub each evening as well. This was our first stay here but won’t be our last!

Truly perfect home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Absolutely stunning property. The views are gorgeous, the house was spotless, the whole-house sound system was heavenly, the beds were comfortable. Do I need to go on? We've stayed in many VRBO properties, but this one was the loveliest by far. Plus, it had plenty of spaces for people to either find a quiet corner, or join together in a full-on air hockey tournament - whatever their desire. And these things could happen simultaneously, without anyone impinging on anyone else's vibe. Truly perfect home.

AMAZING VIEWS!!!!

This rental has one of the best views of the mountains. Absolutely gorgeous! I found the listing to be spot on in terms of location, drive to get there (recommend 4wd), cleanliness, equip with essentials, literally everything! Greybeard Rental was great to work with. The rental has great surround sound ALL throughout the home. Great furnishings are provided, as the home offers a great game room, lounge/movie/rec area downstairs, tables and chairs on both the screen porch and deck. Just an amazing home and very enjoyable. The only negative I found for the rental was that it did not have a grill and/or grilling area! The views and porches were so enjoyable, having a grill would have been awesome! I definitely recommend this rental and would return!

Views & Great House!

The VIEWS... you can see all the way down to Lake Lure ~20 miles away. Nice elevation, which provided much cooler temps during mid-July. Pet-friendly and house was immaculate upon check in. Also nice they didn't try to configure too many bedrooms or sleeping arrangements, just three very large, well-appointed master suites basically. Whole house music system was nice and we spent every morning + afternoon on the decks. Very nice high-end appliances and furnishings throughout. Bar + wine fridge downstairs was a plus! Plenty of room to park multiple vehicles but heads up if you have a large truck/vehicle the top parking level gets a little tight. The hiking trails + waterfalls in community were also fun. In summary, we would definitely come back for another stay here. Highly recommended for peace/quiet/privacy!

What else could you want?!

This house is amazing. If you are questioning anything about renting it, do not. It is huge, comfortable, gorgeous, well-appointed, great kitchen with everything you need (even decent chef's knives!), and comfortable bedrooms with huge bathrooms. The view is the best one you will ever see in your life. You WILL NOT be sorry about renting this place. The ONLY possible thing to be aware of, as is mentioned in other reviews, is that the 10-15 minute drive to the house on the mountain road is hair-raising. I would not want to attempt it at night, especially upon first arrival. But honestly, we got used to it over the course of the week.

Inspires our Dream Home

At Last Lodge was everything we hoped for and more. The house speaker system was the feature that we never knew we wanted! The kitchen had everything we could possibly need and the music to dance to, the view was mesmerizing, the bed was comfortable, the basement became our happy place, and the hot tub was perfect on a cold day. We recommend bringing any groceries you need, because the road to the house is steep and tight. Once you’re settled, you won’t want to leave anyways. I also love all of the lighting options and the little signs everywhere to help you figure things out more quickly. Someone truly cared when designing this house, and you can feel it as soon as you walk in the door. Greybeard Rentals was super helpful and quick to respond with the couple of questions that we had during our stay. I continue to daydream about our 4 nights at At Last Lodge!!

Mountaintop Luxury

At Last Lodge was a beautiful 3-bedroom home that was extremely comfortable once you arrived at the property. The property was great for grandparents who stayed on the lower level and a young family who stayed in 2 bedrooms on the main level. The views are spectacular. The furniture is extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped. The house had indoor diversions: hot tub, ping pong, table football, and multiple TVs. The negatives were the steepness of the roads to the house. We had beautiful weather so the roads were very steep but manageable. I would have been worried if the weather had been rainy or snowy. A four-wheel drive vehicle would have been helpful. The house was about 30 minutes from a grocery store so we had one adventure a day and cooked other meals at home. The roads were too steep for walking or biking but the views and the comfort of the house made it a great place to get away.
