Small but just enough

We were there for a concert at Beech Mtn & we wanted to enjoy the surrounding attractions. Great food, drinks & fun things to do. Loved the location of this place. Also very clean but did smell like smoke & the fan in the bathroom was very loud. Small issues & we would definitely rent again.

Relaxing getaway

This was a beautiful place to stay! The communication with the owner was excellent. We heard from him multiple times before and during our stay. The condo is decorated beautifully and the neighborhood is excellent. We enjoyed our stay tremendously. Perfect place for two people and October on Sugar Mountain is spectacular.
