The host was so very helpful and easy to reach. It was the most well-stocked vacation rental we have stayed in. There were lots of throws, extra blankets, spices, plenty of detergent, shampoo, soap. She even had lanterns in case of a power outage, baby gate, pack n play and a high chair. Less packing for us. The house was well cleaned. The passes for Rumbling Bald Resort activities were a bonus! We especially enjoyed the quiet surrounding the house. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
