Wonderful home away from home
This is one of the nicest homes that we have rented thru VRBO. Everything was perfect.
Very comfortable with a cook’s kitchen that had most everything you might need. We really enjoyed our stay. Great communication with owner. We hope to visit again sometime soon.

Holiday weekend with family!
We had such a wonderful holiday weekend in North Carolina. We booked just a few weeks prior and the whole process went smoothly. Jason, the owner responded VERY quickly to all questions. It was very easy to find the house in the beautiful neighborhood. We arrived around 4pm and got into the house through the keypad very easily. When we walked into the house the temperature was perfect and we noticed it was extremely clean. The house is large enough to accommodate large groups. The bedrooms are also spaced out perfectly to have each guest in their own private area. The house is gorgeously decorated, it definitely felt like we were home. The house had everything that you would need. The kitchen is beautiful and stocked with every pot, pan, plate, and accessory that you would need to cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Our favorite part of the home is the backyard. It is beautifully decorated and has enough seating for everyone to enjoy. There is a gorgeous fireplace outside that was stocked with plenty of fire starters and firewood. We never ran out! We also took advantage of the outdoor propane heater (it was very cold) and the propane grill. We enjoyed going to the Outhouse races that were going on at the Sapphire Ski resort. We also enjoyed many great meals at SlopeSide Tavern...highly recommend the restaurant! We will definitely book this home again when we come back to visit. There wasn't one thing to complain about.

Annual fall trip
Excellent home. Home has an open floor plan with several gathering areas and was very clean and well equipped.The kitchen has everything you could need and all of the beds were very comfortable.An outdoor fireplace and seating area made for two incredible evenings outside and the grill was clean and looked very new. The owners had an arrival gift for us which was a very nice touch. All of the starter and firewood you could possibly use was available.This is our sixth trip to the area and our favorite home by far. We will be back.
