Great Property
Great home to accommodate multiple families and sleeping arrangements. Really enjoyed the ability for each adult couple to have their own room while kids could bunk and enjoy separate quarters. The common space was large enough to accommodate everyone. Awesome time.

The home is gorgeous and relatively private, you wouldn’t know there’s another cabin next door unless you’re out front. The interior is big enough for a large family or a group of friends. A great area close to many things and easy to get to local attractions.

Couldn’t have found a better house, felt like I was in a Hallmark Movie setting. Decorated just enough for Christmas, had everything we needed

Great setup for our crew!
This was a great house for our crew of 10! The house and community were very convenient to everything we were interested in doing (Boone, Blowing Rock, Banner Elk and Elizabethton, TN). We will definitely look to stay here again.

Perfect mountain vacation getaway for large families!
This spacious home was just what we were looking for in a family vacation for our group of 11! We enjoyed using the hot tub, indoor and outdoor pools and hiking the short trail loop across the street. The home is in a convenient location to all the attractions we wanted to visit during the week. We would definitely come here again!

3 couples enjoyed an AMAZING retreat for the summer!
Gorgeous home, all of the amenities you could want, the hot-tub we enjoyed each evening and the property grounds were stunning! Hiked around the neighborhood and it is a short drive to Grandfather Mountain . The Grandfather Mountain winery is right down the road from the home….8 min drive. Incredible wine, cider and live music all on the water!!! We had a blast and will be back!!

This was the perfect get-away house for our family, who came from as far away as California and Florida, Tennessee and Georgia to meet for a family reunion. Our rental house was immaculate and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, silverware, and small appliances. It even had a coffee grinder! There were several great places to congregate and socialize -- one deck had a hot tub, one deck had a big table and chairs for card playing or morning coffee, the main floor had a huge kitchen table and comfortable sofas, and a lower deck had a game table. I would definitely rent this house again!

Fabulous home in an excellent location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property for ASU's homecoming weekend! The location was only about 15 minutes from campus, which made travel back and forth so convenient! The home was in excellent condition! We will be back!

We had a great stay!
We had a great stay! There were 12 of us and we were very comfortable in the spacious and very clean house. Large amounts of storage space for groceries. We enjoyed the large living room layout with a beautiful view with large windows to really see around. The hot tub at the house seats about 6-8 comfortably. Having 2 deck areas was wonderful also. The community gym area and pool area are a nice layout and easy to access. We will definitely come back and stay again!

Perfect Mountain Home
We stayed at this home with 2 others families and the homes was perfect! It was clean and we had space to play games, eat meals, plenty of bathrooms & beds to sleep & room to gear up for snowboarding/skiing adventures with 12 people! The location was great for us to be able to take our pre-teens & teens to Sugar, Beech & Appalachian! The house was equipped with all the basics...pots & pans, towels etc. The only things we brought with us was extra trash bags, paper towels, paper plates and napkins. The house had all of this but with eating almost all meals there we went through a lot of paper products. The rental Company Blue Ridge was AMAZING and very responsive to any correspondence we had before our arrival. Would definitely stay at this location again!

Heaven Everyone Needs
The cabin was just as pictured and described. We rented it for a family vacation with two of my brothers and their families. This was for the New Year Vocation 2021. We have 4 nights of stay in the clouds. The cabin had everything we needed. We are from Florida, and started in 2012 like a family tradition to celebrate New Year in cold weather, somewhere far away from the Sunshine Stare, In TN, VA. WV, etc. Since that time we rented more then 7 different cabin / houses, in different states but this was the only one which have something special. Have heating/cooling system to each floor witch own thermostat. There was 3 floors, our family was very comfortable with possibility to adjust the temperature to each floor individual temperature when need it. Glad to stay here and recommend the property to anyone. Very Clean. Very Spacious. Very quiet location. Very Safe neighborhood (gated community). Best hot tub. 3 fireplaces. A lot more things which makes this cabin/house different
