Beautiful home & great location!
We booked the property for a long weekend stay. It was everything we could have wanted. The kitchen is well equipped. The bedrooms were very comfortable. & bathrooms were large. The only suggestion is regarding the good bit of rain & snow that we had. The washer & dryer is in the garage & there's no cover from the elements walking to it from the main house. We were grateful for the generator as the power flickered several times. Overall it was everything we could need or want & I'd definitely stay again.

Great home bad communication
While the house was great, there were many things that left us disappointed. First, lack of response from Blue Ridge Rental. I started calling at 9am the day arrival, as I was instructed, to check on an early arrival. It was a long drive and we wanted to time it close to the available check in. No answer. On our way I called several more times with no answer or return call or text. At 4pm, the set check in time, the code provided didn’t work. It’s cold, my family was tired of being in the car, and it took almost an hour to get a return call to give us a new code to enter. So, we didn’t actually get in until 5pm. The gas grill was terrible. Couldn’t get hotter than 200 degrees. Speakers with the TV in the living room were blown and the sound was terrible. We had to unhook the sound bar to even tolerate the tv. The floor mats in front of every door needs to be replaced. All the ends were curled up and you couldn’t open and close doors without completely moving the floor mats. While the house and location were great, the accommodations and responsiveness were lousy for the price I paid.

River Mist 2
Loved the property. Beautiful place. Arrived on Sunday, the trash was overflowing from the trash cans. Tuesday I hauled it to the convenience center. No one came for the trash till the following Tuesday. Made a call about the hot tub that was not working and the HVAC not working properly. Also told Blue Ridge the HVAC filters needed changing, Filters were never changed. I changed the 2 downstairs filters. I needed a ladder for the 2 upstairs filters which I didn't have. Judging from the grills and sound, they also were past due. I'm happy to forward pictures if you like.
I was notified prior to our arrival that the hot tub was not working properly but usable. Cold water and no jets are not acceptable for being usable. Nor were any of the controls operable. Was told multiple times someone would be out to look at it. No one showed. Swept the leaves that were packed around all the evergreens at fire pit. Also pulled couple buckets full of weeds from fire pit area. I hate to complain but for spending the amount of money that i did for 2 weeks, I expect a lot more than I received. Your clients need to put some money into their investment or charge significantly less.

Exceeded expectations!
Everyone loved this beautiful house! Layout allowed privacy & plenty of space for our multi-generational group.
3 king en-suites w luxurious blow-your-mind bathrooms. Well-equipped spacious kitchen.
Small office off of living room has pull-out full bed that might be comfy for a small kid.
Played in the river several days & loved having meals outside & listening to the river from the many decks overlooking it.
Weather was perfect! Wow- cool temps in August?!
We brought river tubes, walked upriver exploring, past pavilion, then floated slowly down. Several deeper pools to linger in. Saw one snake.
Cove Creek store up the road 10 min’s has some basic supplies, firewood, nice people & decent sandwiches.
Fire-pit for obligatory s’mores.
We appreciate the natural setting & wildflowers by the riverbank, but a quick weed-whacking of grass would have made it a nicer place to sit. We had brought a tarp to set our stuff on for a day of river fun. A couple of the larger pathway stones will wiggle/shift a bit under your feet, so watch your footing when walking down to river.
Spent a few hours in Boone, Mast General Store & other shops. The Come Back Shack for burgers never disappoints. Other fam favorites: Local Lion & Stick Boy for baked goods, Proper or Red Onion for a nicer sit-down meal.
None of us were ready to leave. What a great house that helped us make fun memories!
