This is a great stay! The smallest details were thought of in every area. Snacks for arrival, bathroom lights, puzzles and games for kids and what a beautiful view from the front of the home and the magical sounds of running water outside the home. The drive up will have you questioning your choice but it’s so worth it. The small drive or walk to the waterfall is magical as well!

We enjoyed our stay very much. Property was clean and as it appeared on the website. Host was very nice and made us feel at home. Took care of everything we needed. Enjoyed feeding and petting the horses. Nice walk to a very cool waterfall. Enjoyed the fire pit and the rest we were able to get. We would definitely stay again when in this area

Big kitchen with an island for casual eating and a larger table for sit-down family meals. Cozy recliner couch and chair, fast internet and nice sized guest rooms. Great decor, newly and very tastefully remodeled. The hosts communicated well and were extremely friendly and accessible. Our favorite was meeting their horses, sitting by the outdoor firepit while enjoying the rushing water from the river that is right across the street. There is even a waterfall just up the road providing yet another bonus! We’ll definitely return for another visit!

This property is simply amazing. I wish there were more than five stars to rate. I would say six stars at minimum. The house had absolutely every amenity that you can imagine. Updated kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms made the stay comfortable. Best of all, was the serenity and peace that the property offers. It is about 30 minutes from Beech Mountain and 15 mins to town for groceries, etc. There is a local restaurant about 10 minutes away that offers a great breakfast.The host were amazing. Could not have asked for more,
