The property is lovely as well as the home. I would have liked to of had a few more kitchen utensils and a Keurig. The property owner did say we could reach out if we needed anything. We chose not to ask for anything while we were there so we could enjoy our family time.

Perfect place to have a no-stress get-away! The house is beautiful on the side of a mountain with hike access right in the back yard. Quick access to Lake James for every lake activity and quaint Morganton to leisurely explore. The host was always immediately available and the house was already stocked enough to cover forgotten items. Every base was covered and we didn't miss a thing while we were there. Excellent!!

This is probably the cleanest rental I’ve stayed in, even down to bedding and furniture. Super clean, just right for our family of 3. Great location for hiking and sight-seeing. My 2nd time staying in this home and would stay again.
