Perfect location

This is our second time our family has enjoyed this beautiful home. We were fortunate to be there during peak leaf color, and it was awesome! I have always loved the Valle Crucis area. The location particularly worked great this trip, as our grandson attending App State was able to join us. Just as our first stay, everything was amazing!
