Lockbox was faulty. Gate had been removed to the outdoor fence so dogs could get out. Inside the rugs & carpet are in smelly bad shape. Really most items in the house looked like they needed a refresh - the scratchy, picked towels to the thermal blanket with holes - But then the smell was just so pervasive, I felt like I was sleeping in an ashtray. We left early.

The house was cute and close to Blowing Rock and Boone. The fence for the yard goes around back of house and nice area and provides privacy from neighbors but doesn't have a gate on the front, not a big deal but have to keep pets on leash.
