A great house
Gorgeous view! Very clean house with mostly updated bathrooms -- except mother in law suite. Nice linens. Personal, interesting decor. Only one toilet on the main floor, but otherwise good. Parking was good, access was easy. A very nice place at a good price.

Great house
The house had ample space for all adults and kids, and the views were wonderful. There were a number of dead lady bugs in 2-3 of the bedrooms which made us question how recently the house had been cleaned. The ice cubes in the freezer also had a yellow tint to them. We had a few folks that had intestinal issues after the first day so we bought bottled water and that seemed to help. If the water is not great for consumption, I would recommend putting that in the check in details.

Perfect!
Beautiful home with a beautiful view! The kitchen is extremely well stocked and we were easily able to host our friends that joined us. The home is decorated with beautiful art and unique pieces in every room. This home was perfect for several couples getting away together. We hope to book this home again!

Booking issue
There was a double booking issue that was not our mistake but the rental companies..... I think they finally realized it was their mistake but we were a little put out by initial communications.

Family get away for a long weekend.
The house was nice and even had a quiet place for my daughter in law to study. Spacious and clean. It would have been nice to have a few more large frying pans (12 inch). There were also lights with light bulbs out (6 of the 8 over the dining table). Replaced them from local store so all was well. It would also have been nice to have some instructions on electronic (TV, cable, etc). Also not clear when trash would be picked up and if there was recycling. Saying all that, we would definitely stay there again. For 6 adults,1 baby and a 4 year old It was great.

Heaven in the trees
This is a beautiful, well-loved property with exquisite furnishings and breathtaking views. It was the perfect respite for a family gathering in the midst of the pandemic. Lovely, recently renovated bathrooms and beautiful, well-equipped kitchen. I have already recommended it to a friend and she has booked it this fall. One of my favorite VRBO stays!

Beautiful home with beautiful views
This is a lovely home with amazing views of the NC Mountains. We loved spending time on the beautiful deck and just taking in the views. The home was nicely stocked and had everything we would need for a fantastic weekend away.
Our only issue at this home had to do with communication with the host. On the first night we were there we noticed a small squirrel on the rafters who emerged from a small hole on the ceiling (presumably from the attic). While he didn't really bother us, I could totally see how this could make future guests uncomfortable having a small animal moving around overhead. I tried calling the property management company multiple times to let them know about this, but I never managed to have someone answer the phone or respond to my messages. Again, for this instance this was not much of an issue- but if we had an emergency and needed to urgently get in contact with someone, I'm not sure what we would have done...
Overall, the pros of the home made it an extremely enjoyable stay and I definitely recommend this home to future travelers. Clearer communication channels with the host would make it perfect.
