The place is huge and has many large comfortable common rooms for puzzle working, conversation, TV watching and games. Our group of 20 never felt crowded. The kitchen is really well stocked and we easily made Thanksgiving dinner for 20 in it. The mattresses are old and need to be replaced. Many back aches were mentioned in the older half of the group.

Large House with plenty of space

This house was a perfect size for our family. The kids could watch tv in the back room, I could sit and read in the front room, the pool was huge, although the weather wasn't conducive for swimming, the fire pit in the front was a great spot for sipping wine and creating s'mores. A couple of the appliances needed maintenance but, hey, that happens. The house was well-appointed and we had a great time there.

Great House - great trip!

The house was more than accommodating in amenities. We had everything we needed and more for enjoying our time in Black Mountain and Asheville. My only comment for improving the experience is to make sure all the light bulbs are working - at night it can be pretty dark in the house with only about half the lights working.

Amazing House!

The house itself is amazing! It was perfect for my friends and I. It was clean, spacious, and had a lot of great amenities. The only issue with this house is that you can't get ubers/lyfts, so I would recommend either renting a car or finding a good cab company in the area for rides. Overall, we had a great experience at this house. Communication with the property manager was very easy and they were quick to respond. Highly recommend!

Memorable weekend

We loved this home! Everyone had their own bedroom/bathroom. Enjoyed the hot tub, conversation in the hearth room with a fire in the fireplace, kitchen was great,... Perfect place to make memories with my dad. He has dementia and it meant a lot to have my family all together in one location where we could make memories with my dad/grandpa. We loved shopping in Black Mountain, dinner at Bone & Broth, Billy Graham Center and just hanging out. Thank you!

We had a wonderful time at the lodge! We all had looked forward to this trip for a long time and it did not disappoint. The house has hidden closets and toilets, many beds and an abundance of beautiful natural light. The hot tub was wonderful and it was already running when we got there so we just had to turn on the jets! The sauna was wonderful. People were able to access the sauna without disturbing anyone's bedroom.Everyone enjoyed their bedroom and we all slept super cozy as the beds are quite nice. The common area with bunks also opens to a nice covered patio where we practiced yoga!Some things to note: bring your own fire starter (the place has plenty of firewood) and lighter, first aid kid (the place has one but it has been quite used up)We were unclear if the water was filtered or not, so bring your own water filter.Note: the driveway fits six, but if you need more room, you could pull under the covered part and fit 8 cars.P.S.- The house is for sale! Scoop it if you are interested, definitely a gem.
We loved this open concept living space! There were 4 living spaces
We had a beautiful bonfire together
The entry way is so gorgeous
