The house is beautiful and in good shape, inside and out. It's spacious, comfortable, and well appointed. The property sits on a wooded hillside and has beautiful views, especially from the first and second story balconies. The host was responsive and patient. I highly recommend renting this house.

The property was great - great location. Very comfortable beds and lots of room. I liked that there were night lights in the bathrooms. The driveway was steep but we had been told about that so we were prepared. Loved everything about it.

Great stay, responsive host, beautiful, clean and well appointed home. Would definitely stay there again if we’re in the area. This is a good place to stay if you’re attending a wedding at Castle Ladyhawke. It’s an easy 20 minute ride from there.

Great family house

The house description was accurate, but no words can actually describe the peaceful and serene location. The host was fantastic and very accommodating! We used it for a family get together. Wish we could have stayed longer. We went in springtime. It was beautiful.

A perfect place for a weekend getaway!

We had a wonderful stay. The kitchen was well appointed with more than enough pots, pans and cutlery to cook a great meal. My wife loved sitting on the back porch, in the quiet to read a book. The beds were comfortable. We would absolutely love to stay there again in the future. The only downside was the Florida Gators commemorative cups…I kid…GO DAWGS! Seriously, we loved our time here.

Winter stay

The property was well equipped with everything needed. Our only complaint would be that the first floor bedroom was very cold at night with temperatures in the 30s.

Sorry to hear about your issue, I wish you would have inquired or simply realized that excessive use of the main floor fireplace was overriding the thermostat. I looked back at the thermostat history and saw that it reached temperatures as high as 78 degrees in the main room. So it looks like excessive heat kept the thermostat from coming on and heating down stairs properly.

Near Glenview Lake and Access to Cedar Point.

House was fine. Be prepared for lots of stairs which was not a problem for us. Wi-Fi is spotty at best. Streaming for movies is poor. No cell service at the house. Very close to Lake Glenville and access to the parking at the cedar point was a nice plus. Master bedroom was nice on the third floor. We did encounter a few issues while we were there. We fixed ourselves or worked with owner to get resolved. The house does sit on Bee tree road which turns out to be a busy road and lots of road noise.

We appreciate having guests that are experienced and can change batteries when needed. As a host, it is frustrating when guests get to the house and you find out that they haven’t read the listing to know what we have or don’t have. As stated in our listing, we are on satellite tv and satellite internet and are NOT set up for streaming. HughesNet recommends downloading movies during off hours to watch during prime time. We do have a cell boost in the house and have no problem with cell service (Verizon) if you don’t wander too much. We also have a house phone if needed.. Unfortunately, some guests do not read the listings and expect the same creature comforts of home while in the mountains- that unfortunately is not always possible. Our house is three stories so yes, our house has stairs. For convenience because we are on a mountain, we actually have steps outside as well as inside. I went to the house upon departure to check the wifi and satellite tv and everything checked out fine. The direct tv tech said delay issues were a result of multiple users attempting to stream at the same time. All three TVs had the surround sound disconnected and one was on the wrong input.

The house overall was very nice and we enjoyed our stay in the house. The house is surrounded by trees which was nice. We did have some issues. First we had septic odors mainly in the first floor bathroom and outside where the I assume the septic tank was located. We notified the host by email and he responded 12 hrs later and said the p-traps might be dry and need to run water in all sinks etc. Tried that and it did not help, next he said that in the half bath there was a small box of Septifix - drop two tablets into the toilet and flush. This seems to be an on going problem and should have been addressed in the "house book". The tablets helped with the odor for a while, I had to reapply a few days later.We also had issues with water pressure. Several times while taking a shower the water pressure would drop and several times stop all together. We also had low or no water pressure other times during our stay. The water pressure would eventually return but it was very annoying.When the temps dropped outside the lower level would not get warm. I believe this was an issue with other guest. Notes in the house book addressed this issued and contributed it to using the fire place, but we were not using the fire place that much.The hot water (when there was water pressure) was great, but I would recommend to anyone with young children to be mindful of how hot the water can get. I think the hot water was turned to high because on it's own someone could get burned.

Hi Dale, I apologize for the inconvenience and would have been glad to refund you. Our community well and tank recently had maintenance after the extreme cold spell and when it was placed back in service our filter system did its job and the backup filter just needed to be placed in service. This was an abnormal occurrence and I wish you would have called me per the house instructions I sent you. The tablets for the septic system are something I do monthly for preventative maintenance (not the guests) and since you took it upon yourself to choose what to try I gave you guidance, but you mentioned nothing about the water. I will definitely followup on the water heater setting as it had been turned off during well maintenance and should be on the ‘A’ setting. Please read our reviews, this was an unfortunate abnormal occurrence.

Fabulous home! We loved our weekend in the woods in Glenville. The kitchen was excellent for preparing meals and the deck was a wonderful place to rest and unwind. The home was exactly as described and shown in the listing. Clean as a whistle top to bottom. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful Spring Break.

Easy access entering the home at check in. Home is private and enjoys a view of the lake and a stream a short way down the hill. The three bedrooms are all comfortable and private. Master suite is huge! My wife and I went there with my daughter’s family which includes 2 teenagers. The home accommodated the 6 of us very comfortably. We all agreed we would return for another stay in the future.

Private, relaxing and well maintained.

Everything was as advertised and shown in the photos. Very easy to work with Jeff and he was quick to respond. The master bedroom and lower suite are awesome if you want some private and very roomy space. Lots of hikes and waterfalls nearby and Ingles grocery just down the road has Everything you will need if you plan to cook while you are there. The kitchen was well stocked and the appliances were great.
