This is the perfect house! Views are incredible, hot tub was clean and nice and less than 15 minutes to downtown. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need. The beds were comfortable. The kids loved the game room downstairs. Will definitely stay here again.

Fantastic home in a prime location. Couple of drawbacks. The thermostat refused to dip below 73 degrees and the water in the shower would cut out if a toilet was flushed on a corresponding level. Other than that the views were pristine, the hot tub was cozy, the house itself was 10/10, and the time we had there was priceless. We hope to return again in the future.

Family getaway and first time visiting the area. The cabin had everything we needed. the game room was great for entertaining on those rainy afternoons and nights. We would definitely stay here again. Location was good far enough away to be private but still close to activities.

Wonderful Weekend Getaway

Absolutely loved this cabin home! The layout was perfect for our family of 4, and we enjoyed everything the home had to offer, from the hot tub and fire table for smores to the game room space and proximity to shopping and restaurants in Boone. The cabin was perfectly prepared for our arrival, and the host was very quick to help us resolve the one issue we had upon arrival (one that was totally covered in the check-in instructions...just read them). Would love to stay again another time!

Lovely mountain home, warm and relaxing

"About Time" was a wonderful relaxing property. The common areas were perfect for our group, and the bedrooms were relaxing. The property management company was easy to work with, and they sent us every possible piece of information we would need for our stay. We would recommend, and would stay there again.
