issues that were frustrating

It was a good stay and nice place overall. But there were some issues that were definitely disappointing with the amount of money that we spent on this rental. The thermostat is out of date and did not work properly, the smoke alarm batteries were bad so that was chirping, the fireplace did not seem to work, and the hot tub was somewhat run down. Additionally, while I was cleaning up from us leaving, I found a prior guest’s underwear underneath one of the kids beds, which made me feel that the cleaning people are not the most thorough.

Perfect for Hawksnest plans

This was a fantastic property for our family of five, having snowtubing plans at Hawksnest. We enjoyed having access to the creek behind the house, several family-friendly board games in the living room, the use of kitchen appliances and tools, a washer and dryer, and the very comfortable beds. It was just the right space for us to enjoy with close access to great restaurants in Banner Elk. We are looking forward to hopefully staying again!

Awesome stay!

We enjoyed our stay so much!! Loved the location it was close to everything! We really loved the stream in the back and the hot tub was a huge plus after being at the ski resorts all day! The only advise to the owner I would give is the house needs more towels for guest with the hot tub we had to keep washing towels and eventually bought a few so we can have enough but honestly that was very minor for our amazing trip!! We will definitely be back

New Year’s visit

We were very impressed with how clean and prepared the home was. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds were comfortable, plenty of space for our family of 6. The hot tub was clean and the creek in the back was beautiful. The home is in a neighborhood, but it maintains its privacy. The home is ideally located with easy travel into Banner Elk, Grandfather Mountain, and anything else you’d want to do in the area. Can’t wait to stay again.

Minutes to everything!

The house is wonderful. Open the door to the back porch and sounds of the creek & waterfalls fill the air. We were just about equal distances from Boone & Banner Elk with an easy drive in either direction. Host communication was great! Definitely plan returning to this oasis.

Relaxing Getaway

My husband, two teenagers, and I really enjoyed this beautiful, clean, perfectly located home just a few minutes from Hawksnest, where we went snow tubing. The setting is gorgeous with mountain views and a creek running through the backyard. Hot tub was wonderful! Wish we could have stayed longer...

Christmas by the Creek

The sound of the water running in the creek on the back side of the house was beautiful to see and hear. We enjoyed our stay here. However, if you book during the cold months, I would recommend having chains or a four wheel drive vehicle, or you may get stuck in the cabin.

Nature Getaway...with all the amenities

Located off of the Blue Ridge parkway, we saw the leaves in all their glory on the parkway from Asheville to the house. Incredibly scenic drive. Puling into the area, it seems like a nice suburban neighborhood. When you open the door and step out to the porch, you instantly relax. The trees, the river, the huge rocks - and it all melts away. Additionally, this is close to so much! In Banner Elk, there is a really cool roller coaster - Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster. Not scary - just pure fun for even little kids. Great coffee shop there too. Nice restaurants in Banner Elk as well. Stonewalls was a nice escape from the kids for dinner. Otter Falls is in the neighborhood. We started there and hiked all the way down the river to our cabin. With a 12year old and 6 year old. It was so cool to climb the rocks. Ziplining in the neighborhood at Hawksnest is also super fun. We will return in the winter to do the snow tubing. For a few slower days, we could sit outside and watch the river while the kids climbed the rocks and explored the river. They have several seating areas to change your perspective. On the porch, down some steps, or walk about 20 steps to sit on the river banks. The river is the highlight and you are literally right on it. Regardless of the season, this is a beautiful destination. Bonus: Tempurpedic bed in the main bedroom. Other beds are ok. Plenty of games to play with the kids at night. Would be nice to have a tea kettle there.

Best Location I’ve ever stayed at in this area!

Best Location I’ve ever stayed at in this area! I really love seven Devils. But sometimes the roads and driveways can be a little frightening when you’re not used to mountain driving. This house is shortly after you enter into seven Devils and actually has a nice driveway and a garage! But what can’t be beat is otters falls running right behind the property. it was amazing every morning to sit outside and listen to the falls and drink coffee. The hot tub was an upgraded version and a really nice! The house was a lovely house. It is also so well located. I love that seven Devils is basically between Banner Elk and Valle Crucis and you can get anywhere quickly and easily. Especially grandfather Vineyard! The owners were very responsive to all of our questions and requests. We will definitely be back!

I was racing at Grandfather Mountain over the weekend. This cabin was perfect. Close to the race start at the Profile Trail, close to dining and groceries, and a peaceful setting along the creek. My daughters especially loved the hot tub and playing by the creek.

Nice & relaxing

Creek with small waterfalls in backyard were very relaxing. Clean, nice, and well maintained. Owner gave all checkin info in a timely manner and we had no issues. (Did have to look up a YouTube video to properly open hot tub, so a photo with the instructions would be helpful.) thank you, we enjoyed our stay!

Very nice vacation home. Running creek behind house is highlight along w jacuzzi and fire ring. Nice simple setup inside but I liked it because easy to clean and maintain. Master bed was wonderful to sleep! As With any vacation rental Make sure bring supplies and be prepared. Many renters I assume take or throw things away so if you like to cook come with all Essentials. Owner very responsive. I would stay here again. My sons loved it:
