Great family retreat with wonderful views

Delightful property. Up the mountain yet still close to town. Loved drinking coffee and watching the fog in the valley come and go. Keep an eye open for a mama bear and three cubs!

The property is beautiful and has great views. My only critique is that the downstairs bedroom needs some TLC especially a new mattress. Our family enjoyed our stay overall. We made memories that will last forever.

Beautiful, relaxing location

This property is located in a beautiful location. We rented during the summer, and I can imagine the beauty during the other seasons. Driving up to the house could be difficult during the winter in certain instances. The house provided plenty of space for our 7 guests and is capable of accommodating more. I highly recommend booking this home for your vacation needs!

Nice Mountain House with beautiful views

Overall, this is a well-appointed property with beautiful views. The house is easy to access and in a nice neighborhood. Communication with the property management was pretty easy, they texted with us back and forth. There were a few minor issues like light bulb under the microwave being out, the fireplace in basement not working, etc. but overall the house is in good shape. They could stand to mount a TV over the fireplace and upgrade the king size bed in the basement. The kitchen was well stocked and had all the dishes we need for cooking. Hot tub worked great. Would recommend this property!

Mountain Cabin

This home was at the top of a mountain. It had stunning views of the valley below as well as of other mountains. The house itself was large. It could sleep 3 couples and two others. It was in great condition. The drive up the mountain was intimidating to some in the group. But the view made is. worthwhile. I highly recommend the house.

Great house, awesome view

Rented the house for a group of friends on a motorcycle trip. House was as described. Very comfortable and plenty of room for our group. The view from the 2 decks is simple amazing. The kitchen was well equipped for our needs. For any motorcyclists thinking of renting for your group this would be a great place, but be aware that the road up to the house is windy and steep. The driveway itself is mostly flat and use of the garage is a great benefit.

Great Family hiking weekend with adult children & family dog

Gorgeous mountain home with full amenities and view! Spacious enough for my husband and I and 2 adult children and their spouses, plus family dog. Close to Pisgah National Forest where we hiked a total of 24 miles over Memorial Day weekend - enjoyed the hot tub. Kitchen was large enough for us to make meals together. Precious memories were made sitting on the porch looking a mountains talking, playing guitars & piano ( available at house), and family meals around the large table. I would recommend to groups of 6 or more people.

Family gathering

The property was perfect for a large group. The kitchen could have used more drinking glasses, there was only a mishmash of small glasses for water. The kitchen was easy to prepare meals in. The livingroom was a nice gathering place for conversation and building a warm fire. The views are amazing! The game area and hot tub are added bonuses! Beware of the steep road getting up to the property. If the road is icy, I would be afraid to drive down from the house. I would rent this property again without question!
