EXCEEDED ALL EXPECTATIONS
The kitchen and butler kitchen were incredibly well appointed. The layout of the house was ideal for coming together and for private space. Quality of the beds, sheets, and layout of bedrooms were phenomenal. We plan to rent this home again next time we visit this area with a group. Location is closer to Boone than we had expected. Roads are curvy but it doesn’t last that long.

Beautiful property, fully stocked with everything you may need; roomy, clean, beautifully designed and decorated. Short distance to Boone and Blowing Rock, but still isolated from the noise and traffic.
