Enjoyed... Especially the Apple Festival... Our waitress at Teens n Deena and the people Sugarloaf Apple Orchard stand. We enjoyed just sitting around and visiting. Our only two suggestions would be a rocking chair on the carport... And of course replacing the fire pit. :)

Host was very responsive. Place was exceptionally clean. Plenty of games and toys for kids. Neighborhood is very quiet. Took walks everyday. The beautiful wood floors are a bit creaky, so keep that in mind if you are a light sleeper or trying to sneak out late at night ;)

Lovely, nice blend of antique furniture and amenities. The twin beds were a bit slippery, my son slid off the side twice while sleeping. I had him sleep close to the wall the next night and it was fine. Comfortable like grandma's house and everything in good working order. Will definitely book again next time we come to town.

Cozy getaway

Ideal location for our girls trip. We were able to shop several antique stores in Taylorsville and Hickory between our days at Emerald Hollow Mine. Home was cozy and quiet and met all our needs.

Charming house

Booked this property a year in advance for a dance competition. Property was perfectly decorated and clean. All the added touches like coffee pods, bottled water, soap and games were a big plus! Our only complaint our the beds. They squeak every time you move but this is no fault of the owner. There are mattress proctors on them that causes the noise. Would definitely book here again.

All Star Weekend

Our plans landed us here for the NASCAR All Star races in North Wilkesboro. The area was conveniently located for us and was a great area. I love this part of the state, it’s beautiful. The house was great, clean, and had everything we needed and more. Plenty of places to eat or get whatever we wanted very close to the house, some walking distance. Beds were comfortable and again everything was very clean. Host was very accommodating, check-in and out was a breeze and communication was very good. We hope to stay here again someday, highly recommend to anyone. Thank you again for everything!!
