One our best vacations ever!

We had an amazing time for our family trip with me, my husband, and our 3 adult daughters and their spouses! The Troutmans were fabulous to work with and immediately answered any questions we had when making the reservations and for our trip. The house was meticulously clean, very comfortable (the beds were terrific), supplied with everything we needed, and plenty big that everyone could spread out and have their own space. We will definitely be back.

Mountain Breezes

The house was perfect for us to enjoy the views and morning breezes, then close to the campground where we hung out for the day with family, then back to the cabin for a hot soak and good nights rest. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked and the beds were very comfortable!

Fantastic Mountain Home

We had a great time at this fantastic property. The views were amazing and the covered porch was our favorite place to hang out. It was clean and very comfortably set up. We all enjoyed relaxing at this amazing location. We especially enjoyed the hummingbirds that would buzz around every day We hope to come back next summer!

Home away from Home...

This was our fourth visit to this absolutely STUNNING property. The only thing more impressive than the view and serenity is the thoughtfulness and hospitality offered by the owners. We are teachers and travel with our 3 teenagers as much as possible on breaks. We have been to many, many short term rental properties, but Rising Sun has proven to be our hands down fave. It is always immaculately clean. The owners have thought of EVERYTHING to make your stay perfect and are always readily available if needed. Our fave activities are the various creekside and waterfall hikes, family game and movie nights and of course staring at the long range mountain views from the hot tub. If you're looking to book an amazing stay for a family LOOK NO FURTHER!

Absolute Perfection

We just returned from our visit to Rising Sun and highly recommend this property. Home is spacious w/ comfortable layout. Plenty of room at the table for our family of 7. If you travel with larger parties, you know there's typically a few issues but, we had none! Our family has a list of requirements when traveling: 1) Spacious bedrooms, comfy beds, pleasantly decorated, adequate lighting; 2) Family pets without weight restrictions (We have a Saint Bernard) travel everywhere with us; 3) Spacious kitchen; 4) Firepit; 5) Hot tub. This property met all. Navigation: All three vehicles found the house w/o difficulty and easy accessible paved roads. Most homes with a view of this level require 4x4's on steep gravel. This home is in a community, but nothing but silence and water from the creek below flowing. Furnishings: Comfortable beds, ample high-quality pillows, sofas, nice rugs, etc. The floors were clean and gorgeous. Not always the case when pets are allowed. No smell or evidence of previous guests besides a few scratches on the bedroom door. They do a great job staying on top of it and have vaccumes available for those like me who like to keep it tidy daily. Hot water: No one understands how important this is until you're traveling with a large family. This property is stocked with a tankless system that allows instant hot water not only for showers, but also a direct spicket that can easily fill the hot tub with HOT water! :O We were seriously concerned when we arrived to a cold hot tub that was half full (due to freezing temps/frozen water hose) but easy/fast communications by Suzanne and we were back up a running by the time we were ready to jump in! MUCH appreciated! Kitchen was fully stocked with nice pans, utensil, spices, cling wrap, etc. We did bring of our own, but was really surprised to see most already there. We were thrilled to find a nice air fryer/baker available! Made cooking a breeze. Outdoor grill flames were lacking, so we skipped it and baked chicken instead. Not a disappointment because it was freezing outside anyway. Ample trails w/maps available, but our favorite was The Forge on Quiver Full Farm. Jeremy taught us to make knives and axes! I'm out of shape, but had a blast! It wasn't hard at all. Highly recommend! We also recommend shopping in downtown Burnsville. It's adorable and has local made ware. Toe River Arts is amazing! We highly recommend this property and will stay again in the future! THANK YOU!

The home was amazing. Beds were super comfy. Everything was pristine clean. The hot tub was a great way for everyone to relax after a long hike to the Catawba Falls. Then we have the amazing view from the back deck. Unbeatable beauty. The house had everything you needed. Fully stocked kitchen, plenty of towels in the bathrooms, plenty of seating for everyone to hang out together. Literally the only complaint I have is the curtains in the bedrooms on the main floor not covering the windows all the way. The deck wraps around in front of the bedroom window and didn't allow much privacy when changing clothes while other people in our group were outside on the deck. Not a super huge deal and could be easily fixed with one more curtain panel. But if a curtain was the only thing I was concerned about then I'd say we hit the jackpot with this stay. We would absolutely stay again. We weren't far away from the things we wanted to do like hiking and touring the Linville Caverns. We had the absolute best time and it far surpassed our expectations.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The cabin was cozy, beautifully maintained, and the views were stunning.

Wow! What a fantastic place to unwind! My family and I had an amazing time here! The inside of the cabin is amazing. So comfortable and plenty of room for everyone. The view from the upper deck cannot be beat. Down on the lower deck, stargazing in a clear night from the hot tub is a must. The only bad thing about our stay was that it had to come to an end. I can’t believe this place was available and isn’t fully booked all of the time.

Fabulous Hiking Trip

Seven women in my hiking group rented this home for three nights on a recent hiking trip. It was the perfect house for us--plenty of sleeping space, bathrooms, gathering space (indoors and out) for the group, a big kitchen for all the cooks, and at the end of the day and miles of trails, a big hot tub for a relaxing soak. The view is spectacular and the home is convenient to all that Mt. Mitchell and the BRP has to offer in the area. The owner Suzanne is wonderfully responsive and helpful. I just can't say enough good things about it.
