Very close and convenient to the ski resort - walking distance. A little outdated furnishings but overall had a good trip snowboarding with the whole fam. Very good communication with the host!
The home was orderly, clear instructions left for all the amenities. Very close proximity to the ski slopes and really enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere!
We traveled to ski App Mountatin (3rd year) and are familiar with the area. The host was wonderful and handled any issues quickly. The home was nice, outdated...but we loved that. It felt like we were staying at Grandma's mntn. home. While the home is within walking distance to the ski lodge, the incline is steep and hard to walk back and forth after a day of skiing...we ended up driving back and forth. If you own/drive a minivan or sedan, do not rent this location. The driveway is not safe and can become difficult with rain/mud.

With regard to the access to and from the ski resort it hasn't been an issue. Based on weather conditions walking vs driving to the slopes would be the tenant's choice. The mud was a temporary issue resulting from work by the water company servicing the line. The road was restored.
Charlotte, the owner was very thoughtful and thorough in explaining how to access the home and left thorough instructions for anything we could think of around the house. Kitchen was stocked with spices and cooking supplies. Refrigerator was spotlessly clean upon arrival ready for all your groceries. The bottom floor basement, was a great area for my adult sons to hang out,Incredibly convenient location to walk to Appalachian ski Mountain. We came back for lunch in the middle of the day easily.They even had the home decorated for Christmas upon our arrival. Very special stay.
Very clean and organized, was a great experience will recommend

Thanks for your review! We were glad to have you and do hope you will book our cabin again in the future.
The cottage was very clean and cute. Very close to Appalachian State. We definitely would stay here again. The fall colors were perfect but would love to come back in the winter to ski.
This was SO close to App Ski Mtn front gate, absolutely adorable property. The driveway was a bit steep, but no issues for my small SUV. Conveniently located between two small cities for night activities and dinners. Would absolutely stay again! Great for the skiing trip.
Cabin was cozy and the kitchen had most of what we needed. Main heat was adequate so did not use the Franklin stove. The upstairs rooms were comfortable but the bathroom was best for small children. Could use an additional heat source for the basement area. Main floor bathroom toilet ran constantly but was good for the pipes since the outdoor temperature was freezing. Great water pressure in most of the house except man floor bathroom sink. Small water heater so showers needed to be spaced out over the day. Great 8 person dinning room table. Comfortable seating in the living room.
We had a wonderful long weekend staying in the cabin. It was spacious enough for all of us, cabin was well stocked with necessities we may have forgotten and location was perfect- walking distance to the ski lodge. Will definitely return to stay
