We really like the house. Small but at the same time it felt big enough for our family. The house is nice it just needs a little more attention on to keep it clean. But other than that we like it.

It is a magic place. Awesome deck. Very clean and well furnished. Steep driveway is a little challenging but doable.

Good and Not so good
The home itself was nice. Attention to detailed cleaning for a home intended for guests would have gone a long way. Other guests have complained about cleanliness and bugs. It's in the woods, there will be some bugs but that wasn't an issue for us. The only cleanliness issues were the amount of cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and in the lamp shades that clearly have not been cleaned in a VERY long time. I had to clean the Keruig before using it; coffee was caked inside where the pod goes.
I will preface the real issue with saying it did not occur to me that I would have to verify the property having air conditioning of some sort in NC. There was a thermostat that had a cool setting so we thought we were missing something with getting it to turn on. It was 80 degrees in the home during the day. I sent a couple messages and it took a day to get a response each time. By the time they informed us there in fact was no air conditioning in the home, it was the night before we left. Suggestion... Have window units in the bedrooms or at the bare minimum, box fans in every bedroom, not just one. Side note... leaving all of the windows open at night did finally cool it down during the night. But if you plan to spend time in the home during the day in the summer, BRING FANS. I know it's the mountains but it is still the hot and muggy south. Also, there are zero window coverings. Drapes would at least help with the sun heating the home up and provide some privacy

Ski Trip
The cabin was cute...loved the deck.
Not very clean (dust, cobwebs, hair in shower, floor, dirty bath mats, dirty dishes in dishwasher, leftover trash on floor in master bath), heaters in 2 bedrooms did not work, fireplace would not come on. Our children were cold. In my opinion need blinds or curtains for privacy.

Family weekend
Great location convenient to Boone and area attractions. We were able to quickly get to local trails. Relaxing location with deck; it was just one family but could have easily hosted two. Has a cozy fireplace and sitting area. Bathrooms look new and are spacious.
Enjoyed lunch at the billiards hall nearby too and driving by the horses!
