Thank you for your feedback—we’re so glad you enjoyed Night Owl Lodge! We appreciate you bringing the issue in the upstairs bedroom to our attention. We'll certainly pass it along to our maintenance team to investigate and address. We can't thank you enough for trusting us with your mountain getaway, and we’d be thrilled to have you back anytime!
We had a wonderful time! Spacious house, with a full kitchen, plenty of towels and a perfect location for those who like to explore nature, we liked it so much that we stayed an extra night, the only thing we missed was a hot tub to complete the experience! We would definitely stay again on our next visit to Black Mountain!

A great time with friends and family while each one of the families had kids at a youth camp about an hour and a half away. The creek on the house site was a little hard to access, but the creek access just down the road at the trail entrance was perfect. All of my kids not a the youth camp (2.5-15 years old) had a great time.

Matt, we're thrilled to hear you and your group had a fantastic stay at Night Owl Lodge and enjoyed the nearby creek access. We appreciate your 5-star review and hope to welcome you back soon!
If you want a view or a yard to play in, this is not the house for you. However, if you want room for your family or friends to be comfortable and gathering spaces for games or conversation, this house is ideal. We had a wonderful time. The house is spacious and the open floorplan is great for gathering. The bedrooms are large and the beds are all very comfortable. The dining table easily seats a large crowd. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, dishes, and cooking tools and appliances. We also made great use of the two refrigerators, The hosts were very responsive and pleasant. We had an air conditioning issue upstairs and Greybeard quickly provided window units that were very efficient while we waited for the repair person. He was extremely professional and pleasant, as was the company maintenance person who brought the window units. We recommend Greybeard highly and will work with them on a future trip!
