House was great, very cozy and warm feel, sleeps 10, good size kitchen, primarily bedroom is huge, upstairs "loft" was amazing, views were incredible...overlooking Sugar mountain ski hill, host communication was excellent. We even had a crazy snowstorm when we were there and the roads were plowed every 4 hours. Definitely A.

Dwight, the host, was great! Reached out preemptively before the trip to make sure we knew how to check in and reached out while we were there to make sure everything was ok. The views were absolutely incredible! The house was great too! Loved the fireplace, cool upstairs room and great primary bedroom!

Family graduation trip

We really enjoyed our stay and it was perfect for the graduation. Easy access to App State. Spectacular view! Right up the road from Hawks Nest where we have been and enjoyed in the winter. This trip we enjoyed a hike on the Otter Falls trail, 1 mile from the house. The home is lovely and outfitted with anything a family would need or want.

Spacious with grand views

The home/cabin was very comfortable and tastefully decorated. The windy road up was worth it for the magnificent view! Such a nice neighborhood to walk in as well. We appreciated dealing with the owner, who thoughtfully called us beforehand to check in. All we had to do was buy a few groceries and we were all set. We highly recommend this property!

Home away from home.

This place is wonderful. The view is breathtaking. At the very top of Seven Devils. So far we have been coming here only in the winter time, but we can't wait to come during fall to see all the leaves change colors. The owner is very responsive, very nice. Can't wait to go back.

Mountain vacation

The cabin was perfect for our group of 5, with room (& beds) to spare. We enjoyed to outdoor activities near by along with the golf courses & shopping. The host made sure to check in with us prior to arrival & made sure to pass along all needed information along with a few other details. Spectacular views of 4th of July fireworks from the back deck! Hopefully, we can come again.

Great view

Recommended. It’s nicely decorated, comfortable, and the view is wonderful. The owner is extremely responsive to questions and concerns. Keep in mind that the main deck is located down a flight of stairs, though there are two smaller decks outside the master bedroom and living room. Getting to this mountaintop house requires driving on twisty mountain roads.
