As soon as we walked into this house, we felt at home. It was just as it looked in the photos. Comfy, cozy and what a view! Load-in was easy with only one step up to the porch and then into the house. The kitchen was not large but very workable. Big refrigerator to store everything. We settled in quite nicely. The deck on the main level is where we spent most of the time we were there. Beautiful view, nice and quiet, deck overhang was big enough that we could stay outside during the occasional rain storms. If you’re a hiker, this is the place! Very close to the parking lot for the Big Bald trails. We used the pool at The Village every day, nicely heated. Didn’t use, but they also have tennis, pickleball, basketball and a kids play area. Just everything you need. That’s what makes Wolf Laurel so special.There is an excellent check-in/check-out notebook on the side table in the living room. Be sure to read the check-in info right away, particularly the part about plugging in the hot water heater. You’ll want to have hot water for those showers after unloading! We spent two weeks here in August and while the rest of the South was in a heat dome, we were enjoying temps in the 70’s and sleeping under a comforter at night!! That 5100 ft elevation is wonderful!Sherrie, the host, was so responsive at every turn and a great hostess. She even sent over her house manager to replace the battery in a chirping smoke detector. Can’t say enough about the excellent service!
