This appropriately named residence is a sanctuary in the scenic mountains of North Carolina, designed to accommodate up to 10 guests and is meticulously furnished.

The open kitchen, dining, and living rooms are bathed in natural light, providing a breathtaking mountain view. The generously sized dining room and the living room, featuring tongue and groove cathedral ceilings, comfortable seating, a TV, and a floor-to-ceiling stone gas log fireplace, create an inviting atmosphere. Step onto the deck to appreciate the fresh mountain air and breathtaking scenic views, where outdoor dining is made easy with a table, chairs, and a gas grill.

The main floor is dedicated to comfort, hosting the spacious primary suite offering a beautiful mountain view with a luxurious bathroom. Accompanying this is a guest bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs, the loft bedroom and bathroom provide a private retreat. Downstairs, another seating area with a TV offers an additional cozy space for gatherings, while an enclosed bedroom surrounded by windows provides a treehouse-like escape. The luxurious guest bathroom downstairs features a stunning tile shower, and a private deck adds the finishing touch to this mountain gem. The primary and downstairs guest rooms feature king-sized beds, complemented by queens in the additional guest rooms, and a full futon in the loft bedroom.

Ski Weekend
Overall a nice home and floor plan. There were some cleanliness issues. Dead bugs ( stink bugs)on floors and in light fixtures and pink mold in master shower. Dirty and dusty wood blinds. There needs to be more lighting on driveway for night arriving. The trash bins were quite a distance from the unit. We enjoyed our stay.

Weekend Getway
We enjoyed are stay here. The views were stunning. The house is situated up in the mountains. Driving up and down the tight windy roads was fun for most of us. The area is very private, quiet and 10-15 minutes away from everything. The house was spacious, gorgeous wrap around deck and nicely furnished. The kids loved the downstairs area, and loft like area upstairs. I would definitely stay here again but i would bring my own pillows and towels. The house needs some minor repairs, and a better cleaning crew.

Beautiful home
The home is beautiful and the views speak for themselves. We were not happy about having to drive the trash to the dumpster each day. We also did not appreciate having to remove bedsheets, clean and put away all the dishes and clean the place before leaving. After all we were on vacation. I would not have minded loading everything into the dishwasher but I thought the check-out requirements were excessive, especially since we paid a cleaning fee.
