About the host

Hosted by Cecilia Reel

I am a native of McDowell County. I have lived here my entire life! I love this small town and all the wonderful people who live here. My husband, Richard, and I have been together for 30 years and we had one son, Tristan. I love being on the lake, traveling, reading, and being with my friends.

Why they chose this property

This home is my labor of love for my son. He did not survive a horrible car accident and we lost him. This was the home that I helped design and create for him. We wanted to share his home with others to honor him. We hope you find as much peace as we do while you are there. He was a shining light and his light shines on in this home.
