About the host

Hosted by Candace Miller

Candace and I have been VRBO owners since 2006 and have enjoyed much success mostly because of our relationship with our guest. It is so important to us that you have a wonderful experience while staying with us. We can provide custom information to help make your visit the best it can be. We stay engaged with the people that visit our mountain home and have several families that were repeat renters but now have fallen in love with the mountains and have purchased property here. at Gateway Mountain. We are always upgrading and maintaining our property and have another home on within walking distance from our new addition that that we have shared with so many. ( VRBO 230650 see our stellar reviews), and are able to provide the same level of service at our new home that so many have enjoyed. Our two properties are very well maintained and very clean just as we would expect if we were staying at your home. We hope to have you as our guest at our new mountain home "Miller High Life".
