Our anniversary was made perfect by this jewel of a find! The first thing we noticed and were enamored by was the view! The photos don’t do it justice! And thanks to large windows, this view is visible when you sit in the living room, when you are eating at the dining room table, and from the bed when you wake up.
The owners paid attention to almost every detail with the decor and fixtures throughout. Love all the blues! You will LOVE the shower. The bed is extremely comfortable with nice linens and pillows. We are two large people and just hate it when owners have a double bed but advertise it as a queen. This is a true queen size bed with space to sleep not bumping each other all night! The kitchen has all you need, with a full size fridge and the cutest little stove. Just know the oven cooks faster than a standard size, so deduct a few minutes from anything you bake.
Thank you for the full size coffee maker and NO KEURIG! Loved it!
(PS Ingles is close for your grocery shopping needs.)
Things to note: the road up is narrow, steep, and gravel. I felt safe in hubby’s 4X4 but would be scared to drive my 4-door sedan up or down. I’m also wimpy about things like that. Bring some firewood for the fire pit. The owners make sure not to book another family downstairs simultaneously as your visit so you have the property to yourself. The property is completely private, as in when you are on the back balcony there is no cabin or house to the left or right; very secluded. If I had to fix or change one thing about the place, it’s what other reviews have stated- there is nowhere to put clothes. There is a small closet with 2-3 wire hangers and a few plastic baby-size hangers. So bring your own hangers. The bed has beautiful, very large throw pillows but there really is only one place to put them out of the way when you sleep- bottom of the closet. All other space is walking space. I can see two places where a small dresser would fit. One is the corner where the wooden rocking duck is. The other is the corner where the succulent planter is. Might have to forgo a little decor to make it more useful/practical. As it was, we lived out of our duffel bags, which were always in the way- no space for them so they stayed on or under the dining room table. Imagine 3 or 4 people staying here. One or two hooks on the wall in the bathroom would also be useful. Small detail. Nevertheless we loved how charming this place was and would return again and again!
