Perfect for a large group! Well equipped kitchen and outdoor living very comfortable. Maybe one of the cleanest homes that we have ever stayed in. Lovely view of the lake and very private. The drive in had great views and awesome scenery. The only thing keeping us from giving 5 stars was that the property manager did not provide an accurate listing of our guests (that we provided) to the gatekeeper at the entrance of the neighborhood. The man was not the most cooperative and seemed to be bothered by the arrival of a few of our guests. Further, it is quite outdated to have to go to the realty office to pick up a key at check in and then to return it upon leaving. It is way more convenient when a keyless entry is the means for entry to the home. Having said that, we would likely book again. It served our purpose and we enjoyed our stay very much.

From 19 to 93, all had a wonderful time

Our extended family group of 16 found this home to be ideal for cooking, hanging out, and as a base for skiing and hiking. We were here between Christmas and New Years 2024, which was a warm spell. We are hockey players and skaters, and many of us enjoy cross country and downhill skiing. The warm weather killed any hope of skating on the lake or cross country skiing at White Grass. But we skied at Timberline and hiked extensively in Dolly Sods. We cooked up a storm for many meals and really enjoyed the ample and well-stocked kitchen and big dining table. We made great use of the hot tub and often had a blazing fire going in the hearth. All in all, a great stay.

Couple things

We found dirty underwater in one bedroom chest drawer. Having to pick up a key and only having one key was hard for 11 people. We had to make sure that everyone had a way back in. Having to not only strip the beds but do a load of laundry (towels) I’ve never had to do that before.

perfect family gathering

This home gave our family everything we hoped for as we gathered from numerous states to celebrate Thanksgiving and my mother's 90th birthday. The space worked beautifully. The outside views and access to the lake and trails was fantastic. The kitchen is well prepared for cooking and serving a large group. We are very glad we stayed at this VRBO.

Wonderfully Equipped House

This house really has everything you'll need for a winter getaway. Plenty of space and in a great location. The property managers were incredibly accommodating and even allowed for an early check-in and later check-out. Everyone enjoyed our winter ski trip in this house!

Lovely pleasant getaway.

We loved the lakeside location, and the weather was a nice August retreat from the hot/humid area where we came from. Plenty of reading material (Highlights and National Geographic magazines) and entertainment - foosball table, playground, canoes. Lots of different outdoor spaces to sit and socialize.

Truly a refuge

The location was exactly what we were searching for, secluded waterfront with room for our whole family. The house is gorgeous and comfortable. All sorts of yard games are available and we used them. The fishing is Sand Run Lake was great. We enjoyed the canoes and the trails. The roads are quite hilly and can get dusty for running but there are lots of nearby trails to try. We hope to return!
