Great Family Weekend at App State Students

We had a wonderful stay this weekend with our two girls who attend App State. Only 30 minutes to Boone and away from all the traffic! The cabin is beautiful and very relaxing. A great time spent with our girls where we could make them a home cooked meal and relax on the porch with the fire pit.

Great cabin close to everything!

Hubby and I needed to get away…booked this cabin last minute. Devon was immediately responsive!! Easy to get to. Bed was comfy, kitchen was the best stocked kitchen of any cabin we have stayed in. Only a mile from the Mount Jefferson Natural Park which was amazing ! Highly recommend!
