Decent place. Bed was uncomfortable. Wish the description was more informative for unit location. Not knowing I booked the bottom floor when the wntire building was empty and I could have picked the upper floor for better view. Just did not know layout of building and lication of u it in building.

Thank you for your review, we apologize for any confusion regarding the layout of the building. One bedroom condos are only located on the lower floors, so the upstairs units would be three-bedrooms. We hope you will visit with us again if you are back in the High Country.
Beautiful condo in great location. Comfy bed; kitchen well equipped. Deck (view) was fantastic...always a light breeze and lots of singing birds. Only downfall was having to drive down the mountain, then up a different mountain to get to the pool. Fantastic local hikes....especially Linville Falls (went 2x). Highly recommend & hope to return some day.

Thank you for your review, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay with us in Chalakee. Linville Falls is a beautiful hike, so happy you were able to enjoy it! If you are back in the High Country, we would love to have you visit again.
This condo’s view couldn’t be beat! I’d like to come back during the warm months to enjoy the outdoor pool/hot tub. Wish there were hikes on the property. Also, the indoor pool/hot tub is quite a drive from the condo. Very nicely decorated and comfortable bed!

Thank you for your review, we are happy you enjoyed your stay with us in Chalakee CI-2. We would love to have you visit with us again if you are ever back in the High Country.
My husband and I visited for 2 nights to.celebrate our anniversary. It had all the comforts of home that he enjoys and all of the sights and sounds of nature that I enjoy. Visiting in the beginning of August after many of the kids were back in school was a great choice. It was so peaceful and quiet there. Watching the bunnies and deer from the balcony was icing on top. I love that it's so close to Blowing Rock and Grandfather Mountain. We visited both. Having the bedroom on the other end of the condo was nice when he wanted to watch TV at night while I slept. The amenities were wonderful as well. Highly recommend it.

Stayed for a weekend to ski Beech Mtn. and cabin was in nice community a short drive away. Plenty of space for a family of 4. Wish amenities were closer (hot tub) as we had to drive back and forth, but glad to have the option, and we never found the sauna. TV options were cable, so it would be nice if streaming apps were available. Would definitely stay again though if I couldn’t be on the mountain.

We are happy you enjoyed your visit to the High Country. Unfortunately, the amenities are a short drive from each of our communities, but thankfully not too far! We actually do not have a sauna on property; only the indoor pool, hot tub, fitness area and clubhouses are available in the winter months. Our outdoor pool and hot tub opens in May! We hope you will visit with us again soon, thank you for your feedback!
Excellent property. Beautiful view. Enjoyed the peaceful view of the morning mountain, birds singing and quiet awakening of the earth. Unfortunately we were not able to use the amenities of the campus due to our schedule. Staff quickly responsive to concerns. Would stay again.
Thanks you for sharing this lovely space

Like living in a screen saver for a few days!The Mountain views were incredible pretty much everywhere we went, including from the condo. The condo was just a described, communications from the rental agency were very clear, and our stay was absolutely wonderful!I cooked dinner in the condo, two of the nights and didn't lack any tools. It was also nice that they left coffee filters and salt/pepper, which was not expected but a nice touch.We used the indoor pool and hot tub daily, and the outdoor pool/hot tub one day. We even fished the ponds one day. The resort property is gorgeous on its own, but the nearby attractions offer so much more. We explored Grandfather Mountain, The Blowing Rock, Rough Ridge Overlook, and Blowing Rock downtown area. Even though it rained some every day of our vacation, we still had the best time.

Thank you for your kind review, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us! What a beautiful description of our mountain views, it is very much like a screensaver! It sounds like you were able to experience some of the best the High Country has to offer. We would love to have you visit with us again if you are ever back in the area.
Once Ida cleared out the weather and view were wonderful! Appreciated the no-contact check in/out process. The condo had everything we needed for a 3-night visit to the area, and the bed was very comfortable. Only minor issue was the check-in and check-out times on VRBO and from Foscoe were not the same. Close to Boone, Blowing Rock, Grandfather Mountain and wineries. Another fabulous trip to the area for us!
We chose this property due to the close proximity to Hawksnest. Great little condo with amenities and gorgeous views. We had a few inches of snow and the roads were plowed before we left for the day. Great property!
