The host was very friendly and helpful! The house was beautiful and watching the sunset from the hot tub with a glass of wine was so relaxing after an evening of shopping at Blowing Rock and Boone. It was a great get away and we look forward to returning.

Emmaculate property! The view was spectacular. My only advice would be to get there during daylight hours. The road to the property is a little tricky in the dark.

A beautiful new contemporary cabin nestled in the mountains just outside Blowing Rock. Very private and secluded with a beautiful view. Our week didn’t have good weather, so we entertained ourselves playing games, reading, and watching movies. Perfect spot for R & R. The host was very responsive with any questions or concerns that we had.

What a view!
The views from the property are amazing. It's also very close to town, which is a big plus. The entry level floor has one king bedroom, a living area and a very nice kitchen and a full bathroom with shower and a separate tub. The downstairs floor has one king bedroom, one bedroom with a double-sized bunk and a single futon type bed, a full bathroom with shower and another living area that has the SmartTV. Both floors have great decks with views. The lower floor has the jacuzzi on the deck.The house was easy to find with our GPS on our phones. There are stairs that lead up to the entry door for those that may be physically challenged.The kitchen had everything we needed and the gas grill on the deck worked great. The jacuzzi is quite large. We wish we could have enjoyed it more but only had about 10 minutes before a lightning event, so we got out, but it's lovely. The hosts were great with communication.

Perfect Getaway
Great communication, everything as advertised. It was clean. Beds were comfortable. Hot Tub was great, beautiful views. My now 5 year old requested a hot tub and bunk beds for her birthday and Wild thing was a perfect fit! She said it was the best birthday ever. Thank You!

Hidden gem
This lovely home is in a great location. Near downtown Blowing Rock but not far from Grandfather Mountain. The wraparound deck and outdoor furniture was a big hit. Lots of windows with natural light in the house. Hot tub was a big plus.

Perfect weekend getaway
This place is amazing! Hosts were super accommodating, and we had great communication.
The view from this cabin is absolutely breathtaking. We definitely want to come again in the fall to take in the view with all the foliage. Everything was clean, and comfy. The hot tub was perfect. We've stayed at so many cabins over the years and rarely do we want to repeat. This one is the exception. We will be back!

Where the Wild Things getaway
The views from the property are spectacular and the cabin itself is beautiful. A loved the modern design with a touch of rustic, wood elements. There are some great hills to get a workout in too. Enjoyed finishing the night relaxing in the hottub. Roads are steep so be prepared but the directions provided are spot on. I look forward to visiting again.

Where the Wild Things Are
This house was absolutely amazing! Although I do recommend arriving during the day to get the lay of the land. We arrived after dark and that drive is nothing to trifle with! But the journey is absolutely worth it to reach this mountainside gem! The views are spectacular and the house itself is gorgeous. It is very well appointed and maintained. It was the perfect spot for our group. Adults and kids both loved it. The only downside was that we couldn’t stay longer! We will definitely be staying here again!

Fantastic stay!
Husband and I celebrated our 22 year anniversary! The house was beautiful and the view was spectacular. We enjoyed sitting outside on the spacious deck with a glass of wine. We didn’t cook, but the kitchen seemed to be well stocked. The house is convenient to Blowing Rock. Communication with property owners/managers was great.
We enjoyed our stay; can’t wait to return!
