Amazing home with so many perks, fully stocked kitchen, tons of games in the basement, no shortage of TVs and fire places and so many gathering spaces.

Thank you for sharing your kind review and for staying with us at Friends in High Places. We look forward to welcoming you again in the near future.
The house was absolutely fantastic. And all of the great suggestions on things to do in the area. We had three couples in their 60s and just had an incredibly wonderful time. One small recommendation might be to put a TV out by the hot tub so we could watch football from the hot tub :-). But overall, the house is a 10!

We appreciate your kind review of Friends in High Places. That cabin is certainly beautiful and so happy your enjoyed your stay there. We hope to host you again in Blue Ridge. Thank you.
This was our second time staying here (which should say something), and it was just as great as before. The kitchen is very well stocked and large, which helped since we had to prepare some dishes for a Thanksgiving get together elsewhere. The bedrooms all have king beds, great for a family with all adult children. The family room on the main level, the large deck, and the game room downstairs, and the hot tub all saw good use. Our son even used the loft for an online work meeting one morning. This home has so many different sitting/entertainment areas it's amazing. And it's very convenient to both McCaysville and Blue Ridge. The host even contacted me the day before our visit to let me know we could even check in a few hours early, which was greatly appreciated.

Thank you for choosing Friends in High Places for your family getaway and for your wonderful review. We’re delighted that you and your family had plenty of room to relax and enjoy one another. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future.
My family and I had such a wonderful time at this cabin as we evacuated from Hurricane Milton. This home was absolutely perfect. No detailed was spared- it had everything you needed and could ask for. Great host. Extremely clean and cozy. Can’t wait to book again in the near future!

Thank you for your AMAZING review! We are so happy you enjoyed Friends in High Places and we look forward to hosting you again in the near future!
Everything we hoped and more! Our first property didn’t work out so a friend recommended Escape to Blue Ridge and I couldn’t be more happy with our choice. Communication was on point and everything was as it seemed. Thank you so much Escape to Blue Ridge
We stayed in Blue Ridge for a long weekend for a family reunion, and had a wonderful time at this home. The house is spacious, each bedroom has it's own full bath and fireplace (perfect for families with multiple adult kids). There are so many spaces to hang out between the great room on the main floor, the loft, the game room downstairs, and the 2 huge decks (and fire pit!). It all seems pretty new, and the kitchen is very well equipped. The driveway is a little steep but you're in the mountains, so most of them are. Plenty of space for parking. We will definitely try to stay here again when we come back to the Blue Ridge area.

We are so appreciative for your wonderful review of Friends in High Places. We are happy you and your family had enough room for your Family Reunion and that everything was great! That home is a perfect place for large families or several couples. We would love to host you again in Blue Ridge.
This property was a perfect way to celebrate my husband's 60th birthday as well as our son's 20th birthday. Plenty of room for all 7 of our family to join in the celebration. The large kitchen was probably the best part...we spent many hours around the kitchen island with the six wonderful bar stools! We also enjoyed the very spacious loft area with plenty of comfortable seating for everybody! The outside deck was quite accommodating and the weather was beautiful enough to enjoy eating lunch out at the 8 person square table as well as plenty of leisure time and conversation around the outside fireplace. The only drawbacks were (1) the fact that the dresser in the upstairs suite was cheap and when we tried to use the drawers they did not function ;as they should (2) the pool table was very poor quality with some of the pool balls being chipped and cracked and even the 9 ball had chunks chipped out of it. I would've have expected higher quality for a cabin of this caliber. (3) would have been nice to have a chair or bench of some sort in the main floor bedrooms to be able to sit on to get dressed or put shoes on. Other than that...we all had a very enjoyable time making lasting memories that we will all cherish for years to come!

Thank you Shannon for your fabulous review of Friends in High Places, what a treat to celebrate two birthdays at once. The kitchen in this cabin is truly exquisite and I can see why you loved it so much. I want to thank you for pointing out the issues with the dresser, pool balls and the bench in the main level bedroom. I have reached out to the respective department and voiced your concerns. We trust you will come back and visit us again in the near future.
