Loved this cozy place!! 100% would stay again!

Amazing cozy spot nestled in the end of a cul de sac but you wouldnt know there were any neighbors bc of the beauty of the woods surrounding you. 2nd day there we even saw deer beneath the patio! The kids ages 13,16, and 18 all had their own rooms down stairs and a bathroom to share down there, which was perfect for us, kind of there own little get a away. The table was huge and a great spot to play any of the several games the owners have there. The patio was wonderful to cook steaks on the grill or to sit on to wake up to the sunrise with a cup of hot cocoa or coffee. Large tv and fireplace made for the perfect spot to get warm after a day of winter sports. It was close to App Ski mtn l, grandfather mtn, sugar mtn and the cute town of Pineola (sp?). Everyone we passed in or out of the place was friendly and stopped to wave. Would absolutelystay here again. A wonderfule place that now holds many of my families memories. .
