It was clean, comfortable, and well stocked for our team. A few very minor things to be expected with such a large property but we were all grateful for such large accomodations.

We would absolutely recommend this house to anyone! We had a family vacation with 13 guests. There was plenty of space for everyone. Sitting in the hot tub with the fire going was a great experience. The outdoor area was great and we all loved seeing deer go through the yard each evening. The kids enjoyed playing pool and exploring the property. The house was very clean and every creature comfort was thought of. The beds felt like sleeping on a cloud and even the towels smelled so good. The owners were responsive, easy to get in touch with and very helpful. We were not wanting for anything in this house. Must go to the General Mast store. This house is very close to both Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain. We went skiing, tubing, panning for gold and on the Alpine Coaster. ##### Tracy S.

I gave five stars in my reviews for every position except one. The kitchen in this rental is on the second floor. I could not see that at all in the description of the home. Had any of our elderly ladies gone with us they would not have been able to have got up to the kitchen. Other than that, this home was fantastic. The views from the kitchen were beautiful too with it being on the second floor. We had 13 ladies on this visit, and we all had plenty of space to visit together or have alone time if we felt like it. The kitchen was very well stocked, and we had no problem with any of our meals that we were preparing. We had a slight problem with the water which was immediately taking care of. I had absolutely no complaints about this place and look forward to another visit in the future. The owners were very helpful in our preparation to come. Offering multiple suggestions for sleeping conditions. The rental was very accessible to shopping and easy to find. ##### Carole D. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy W. Oct 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house! Our stay was planned for 3 weeks after Helene, so things were up in the air for a short time. Stephen was great, however, and he reached out with information on the condition of the house, roads, etc. We didn't want to travel if it would be more of a burden on the community, but we also wanted to help in any way we could - even if it just meant supporting the local businesses. This house is wonderful, especially for an all-adult crew. We each had our own bedrooms with big beds that were extremely comfortable. The dumb waiter came in handy when we wanted to roast hot dogs in the outdoor fireplace - we were able to send all of the food down to the eating nook on the lower level. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Amy W. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### emily r.
