This stay was just ok. The house was in need of attention (lightbulbs out, floors dusty, hot tub frozen over- main reason for booking this specific home, downstairs was VERY cold while upstairs was hot, rotten picnic table). What was a bit more concerning is the reach out I made about the hot tub, which got a suggested response on how to fix it, and then when I sent another message the day after we checked in, I only received automated messages from the property company; definitely not a personal touch. The house was in a beautiful location but the instructions to the house (it’s up a steep hill) weren’t welcoming and almost like they were doing you a favor. Won’t book this house again.

Great views from this home. Plenty of entertainment with the hot tub, foosball, ping pong table, TV, Internet and fire pit! We had a slight issue with the refrigerator door not closing all the way but we eventually figured out how to use it (it had a broken door flap that we had to manually close) but everything else was perfect. Close enough to all the major attractions such as Linville falls. We will visit again, thank you!

Views and cabin were beautiful

Views were unmatched to any other rental. Cabin was beautiful. Property management company was attentive when minor issue came up and were easy to reach. Loft upstairs was very comfortable and plenty of space. The porch and hot tub with the views were great. The WiFi was weak most of the day and took forever to load but we were here for vacation not work so it didn’t matter. I’d recommend this cabin again!

Perfect Getaway

We couldn't have been happier here. The house was extremely clean and the views were unbelievable. We had 10 adults and the beds/sleeping arrangements worked well for us. Depending on the group, I could see people being disappointed by lack of bedroom privacy (we're all old college friends in our mid-thirties so weren't bothered at all). The bed sizes worked perfectly for us and all of the sheets were clean and comfortable. Check-in was flawless, management kept me updated and reached out to make sure we had everything we needed. I noticed there were only 8 bath towels once we arrived so I was able to ask a friend to bring a few extras who lived nearby. Based on some reviews, I was hoping the drive up the mountain wouldn't be too bad. None of us have AWD and were able to make it up without any trouble. If there's snow or ice, I could definitely see it being a challenge though. If I had to think of any negatives, I would say I wish there was enough room for a table to seat all 10 people but we made it work. Also, I will never understand why someone would put up religious decor in a rental that will be used by a variety of people from different backgrounds but we just ignored it. The wifi was very spotty but that's honestly probably a positive as it kept us off our phones! Overall, we were thrilled and can't wait to return someday! Thank you!

Spectacular views and lovely cabin

This is the perfect escape with the best views you could get. It's about 30min to the nearest town, they have games and some books available along with the other amenities. The management team responded quickly and were so helpful when we had questions. We had such a great time even though we had to cut it short due to a family emergency.

Last Minute Changes and No Response from Property Management

Our initial reservation was canceled with a week’s notice. We had to make last minute changes to stay in another cabin managed by pristine. That was stressful and a pain but I understand things happen. The cabin we stayed at was listed as having gas fireplaces, and a gas grill we could use. We brought food to grill out and when we arrived the gas to the entire house had been shut off for over a month and we were never told. We had to cook everything inside and cancel our grilling plans. We also felt mislead about the fireplaces. The date of the shutoff was listed on the fireplace so it wasn’t a last minute thing. I messaged the property manager about this asking if she was aware and if the gas could be turned on and I never received a response. The cabin was clean, and besides that was as described. Just a little disappointed with the communication and details being left out. Probably would not stay with them again.

Views are fantastic!

Overall great time. The pictures don’t do justice. Hot tub was lovely, location is perfect for waterfall adventures, views are amazing, well stocked for 4 nights, and plenty of space. My boyfriend, dog, and I took the lower level and had more than enough space. Basically was like our own apartment down there. Sister took the main level room, parents upstairs. All parties had our own bathroom and shower which is perfect. Game room plus ping pong in the garage was perfect for a rainy day. And we put cornhole/bags under the front overhang for more rain day fun. Don’t rely too much on the board games though; many of them were empty or missing significant components. Host might need to restock those. My family is weirdly obsessed with Yahtzee and were bummed to open an empty box. We made do with other games after searching through other boxes and matching together cards, etc. Only other critique is spotty WiFi that kept going out and the dishwasher isn’t mounted in the cabinet so it was moving around. Both minor inconveniences that didn’t take much from the experience. Would definitely come back again! One of my favorite rentals I’ve stayed in! Kept a party of 6 (including a pooch) very happy.

Christmas Vacation

The property was beautiful and we were all very pleased with our stay. We were hit with a major winter storm and it hit 10 degrees below. Some snow and ice. Electricity stayed on and we had no issues (other than transportation up the mountain - 4WD definitely needed). Enjoyed walks in the woods, time in hot-tub, fires in fire pit and playing games together. Could have used a few blankets and hot tub towels but we had brought extra towels and a few blankets but for most part all was good.

Weekend getaway

We enjoyed our weekend stay in the mountains! The home was beautiful and clean, the kitchen was very well stocked. The weather wasn’t great due to hurricane Ian, so we didn’t get to enjoy much of the outdoor amenities. But, the house was spacious for us all to enjoy each other indoors. The road getting up there was very steep! We had to back up and get a running start to make it up. However turning off our “traction control” help the second time up. All in all I give this place 5 stars

This home is very nice. The views are absolutely stunning! The firepit area was great being just off the kitchen. The linens, sheets, towels etc. need to be replaced. They were old and the comforters/quilts felt dirty. I'd suggest bringing your own. That was our only complaint. We had a great weekend!

The Views Are Amazing/ Needs updating/maintenance

First I want to say that this property has the most gorgeous views I have ever had when staying in a vacation home. The quiet atmosphere was so wonderful. We had our parents, us, our 2 adult children and their families staying on this trip. Our 2 labs had a wonderful time roaming around the property and just lounging on the decks. The covered porch came in handy with the intermittent rain. We were able to bring the picnic table under the covered section and still enjoy being outside. Loved that they had a folding table and lots of extra chairs so that we could open that up for the week. We used it for eating and separate groups to play games. The kitchen was very well stocked. They even had many spices to cook with, which was very helpful and appreciated. There was both a Keurig and a coffee pot. A crock pot and plenty of casserole dishes for use. I love a well stocked kitchen, especially when the entire family is getting together. I will say though that this property needs quite a bit of work done on it. The broken front door was very inconvenient to work around. You could go out it, but not come back in. None of the sliding screen doors worked properly and really couldn't be used at all. Labels on the light switches would have helped people know what belongs to what. This was not a very clean home. Dust on many of the surfaces, especially on the upstairs master bedroom furniture. The shower in the master bath upstairs also had black mold and mildew along the bottom and obviously hadn't been cleaned in quite some time. No supplies at the property for us to use to clean it ourselves either. The grill needs some maintenance as well. It did not heat evenly, and the burners could probably use some servicing. The basement bedrooms have a strong musty smell. I would recommend that you bring an extension rod with a shower curtain to offer some privacy between the 2 rooms down there. The sheets and blankets are all extremely old, musty smelling and pilled. They were uncomfortable and need to be replaced. For the amount of money that we paid for this week, I was disappointed with the quality. Especially the bedding and the cleanliness. We had 8-9 people sleeping in the house throughout the week. Everyone had the same comments, especially the basement bedrooms. While the views were spectacular and made up for a lot of the issues, the cleanliness, linens and maintenance should be addressed quickly.
