Great view. Hot tub is perfect after hiking the trails. House was clean upon arrival. The host was very responsive to messages. Great place for a low key family getaway. Several nearby stores for milk or bread I assume. We didn't stop in any, so I can't say what you could buy. The Little Pigeon River is close by with clear water. We went tubing at River Rats.... Recommended to buy a paddle or stick if you are shorter. Crystal clear water everywhere, until the last day after a heavy rain. The house is far enough away from the hustle and bustle if you're looking for a peaceful environment to sit back and relax, but expect to travel 30-45min for entertainment. Personally, I'd rather have a peaceful environment. Kitchen has plenty of plates, glasses&mugs and cooking utensils. Charcoal grill outside for cooking and all of the needed utensils were easily found in the drawer. Ckeck out the pull out drawers in the kitchen table for coupons to attractions. We were a family of six, the teens 16&17 loved the pool table & swimming pool. The only issues that we really noticed were the inability to see to cook inside, poor kitchen lighting. There aren't any bowls to store food in, so if you like to cook, bring some items from home. Some towel hooks in the bathrooms and somewhere for everyone staying downstairs, to store or hang some clothing would be nice.Overall, great stay. However, if you plan to cook, come prepared with bowls, foil, saran wrap or ziploc bags. Much needed items.
