Fabulous!
We had an absolutely terrific stay here. Our group consisted of me and my spouse, 2 grown daughters, 1 son-in-law, and one infant. The house was large enough to give everyone space and privacy, and is beautiful and well maintained. Upstairs and downstairs balconies provide plenty of outdoor living space. The beds and bedrooms are comforable, the bathrooms spacious, and the kitchen large and well-equipped. This is a fabulous property all around, and we just wish we could have stayed longer.

Great location
We loved the location of this cabin. It was close to Boone and Blowing Rock and the Parkway. The house was relatively new and very comfortable. It was very clean! The kitchen was not very well stocked with glasses, cooking implements, etc., and some of what was there was very old (like coffee maker). But on the whole a lovely place.
