This house is a great find! It is well designed and works well for families. It's 4 bedrooms are spread out among the three floors. The owner/manager keeps a lot of little goodies available. There is an outside fireplace as well as the interior one. A TV is availble on the back porch. The game room is stocked with games for kids and adults. We had a great time and would like to return soon!

Saved our trip

Our previous reserved Vrbo property owner informed us on checkin day there was no water at the house Morganton.Well dried up. Greybeard Realty to the rescue! They accommodated us in this gorgeous Nebo location and stayed in touch the entire trip. The property was incredible. I'll rent from them again. Many thanks!
