Great property owners

The day we got there, they lost power due to an ice storm. We were not able to stay there, but I was very impressed with the owners being quick to respond and quick to process our refund.

Precisely What We Needed

We were a family visiting our family in the area, this place was convenient to Boone and West Jefferson, clean, and comfortable. The large windows in the living room were a popular place to watch birds in the snow. Cozy, warm, would stay again.

Great Stay

The house was very nice. It was as clean as a whistle. The fireplace insert was great and we kept a fire going most of our stay. My kids were so excited it took an hour and a half to get them to bed our first night. We really enjoyed our stay.

Cozy Cottage

The host was very responsive and accommodating. The home was not as clean as we would have liked as you could tell it hasn't had a good deep clean in a while. When the description says 4WD is recommended in winter, I would say you need it all the time. It had rained quite a bit before and during our stay, and we barely got up the driveway in our van. But, overall it was a good place to stay. Our kids loved it, especially playing chess in the living room.

Mountain Bliss

We had the best and most relaxing weekend at this property. The cabin/home matches the pictures perfectly. It is very clean, beds are comfortable, more than enough linens, with a fully stocked kitchen. The fireplace quickly heats the entire home. The best part is having morning coffee and watching the sun rise over the mountains through the huge livingroom windows with a fire crackling. Would highly reccomend this property and cannot wait to come back! Oh, Also - they might have the best DVD collection ive ever seen!
