Ideal location for our girls trip. We were able to shop several antique stores in Taylorsville and Hickory between our days at Emerald Hollow Mine. Home was cozy and quiet and met all our needs.

Enjoyed... Especially the Apple Festival... Our waitress at Teens n Deena and the people Sugarloaf Apple Orchard stand. We enjoyed just sitting around and visiting. Our only two suggestions would be a rocking chair on the carport... And of course replacing the fire pit. :)

Host was very responsive. Place was exceptionally clean. Plenty of games and toys for kids. Neighborhood is very quiet. Took walks everyday. The beautiful wood floors are a bit creaky, so keep that in mind if you are a light sleeper or trying to sneak out late at night ;)

About the host

Hosted by Kim Brown

Host profile image
I am a retired teacher and mother of 2 college aged children. Both are college athletes. We have traveled across the country and stayed in many VRBO/HomeAway properties. After retiring I decided to remodel some family properties and list them on the site. I manage three properties on VRBO; they are located in Taylorsville, Boone, and Mooresville. I also have an antique booth and have enjoyed picking up treasures while traveling for both my booth and my properties. Therefore you will see many items that I have picked while traveling to furnish these homes.

Why they chose this property

If you are specifically traveling to the Taylorsville area you will find it hard to locate a place to stay while visiting. Most visitors must stay in Hickory, Statesville, Lenior or Wilkesboro and travel 20 - 30 minutes back and forth to Taylorsville. Therefore we decided to take this property off of the long term rental market, remodel it, and place it on the short term market and see how it goes.

What makes this property unique

Some of the unique things to come to Taylorsville for include mining at the Emerald Hollow Mine, rock climbing at Rocky Face Park (try the vertical mile challenge!), visit Shadowline Vineyards, go fishing on Lake Hickory, come for a 5K or one of the many town Apple Festivals!
