We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was very well maintained and close to many attractions. We had an issue with key code while checking in and the host addressed it very quickly and efficiently. The tree house room was our favorite hang out spot in the cabin!

Upon arrival, the property was clean, tidy, and welcoming. A wide range of kitchen tools and appliances were available for cooking in. The location is super convenient for exploring a variety of local spots such as, hiking trails, vineyards, restaurants and shopping. The house itself is nestled in a quiet nook of the neighborhood surrounded by mature trees. Host replied promptly to any and all inquiries ahead of time in addition to arranging an early check-in per special request. We would love to return one day!

Just enjoyed a ladies trip in the mountains for our annual GMHG gathering, and this wonderful place was perfect! Especially loved the large table for cranking out jigsaw puzzles in the evening. The shower pressure in main bedroom was glorious! Location proximity was great! We did not take advantage of the membership perks on premises, time did not permit, perhaps next time. We hope to book your beautiful home next year, if available. Thank you

We had a great stay! The cabin is in an adorable neighborhood and we loved driving by the beautiful lake at the entrance. The guest book was super helpful, and trying to locate the squirrels was fun! Great distance from Sugar Mountain for skiing and a trip into Boone.

So much is included!

We had a marvelous time! Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen (we cooked all our meals at the house), and the included community amenities are above and beyond. Downstairs is great for kids. Very private feel while still within a community.
