The property was exactly as presented. So cozy and inviting with a few tasty snacks and beverage waiting to greet us. One of the best VRBO homes I have ever stayed in. Just the correct amount of instructions to make our stay easy and comfortable.

Perfect Mountain Stay

The house was beautiful and met/exceeded expectations. Everything was clean, tastefully decorated, and well thought out. Light switches and drawers were all labeled, and there was a guide to the house and area. The house was conveniently located to shopping, hiking, and food; yet enough away to enjoy the peacefulness of the mountains. We took the walk to Price Lake, through the neighborhood, with the dogs and it was an easy and beautiful walk! We will definitely be recommending the place to others and be back ourselves!

Santa Train

We were heading to Tweetsie railroad for the Christmas train and needed somewhere to stay the night and found this cabin and it was the highlight of the trip! We ended up checking in about lunch and we were shocked to find snow! The kids had the best time sledding and the house was just perfect! It was only 15 from Tweetsie and after the Christmas train the kids were excited to get back and sled some more. We roasted marshmallows in the fire pit and then after relaxed in the hot tub! We only booked for one night but wish we has came a day earlier to have another day at this cabin! We did a quick hike in the snow after check out to the little lake near the property and it was magical as well! We will definitely be coming back to this cabin for future trips!

Outstanding!

Our stay at this VRBO was absolutely perfect! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by how spotless and well-maintained everything was. The home was not only impeccably clean but also incredibly comfortable, the beds were dreamy, the furniture cozy, and every little detail made us feel right at home.The location was ideal close to everything we needed, yet tucked away enough to enjoy peace and quiet. Whether we were exploring the area or relaxing indoors, it truly felt like the perfect home base. We’ve stayed at many vacation rentals, but this one stands out for its thoughtful touches, top-notch cleanliness, and unbeatable comfort. Highly recommend! We’d come back in a heartbeat!

Fun Girls Get-away

Myself and 5 other nurses treated ourselves to a cozy mountain getaway and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! The owners would great and were extremely responsive to any needs. The house was perfect size for 6 girls and had everything we needed! It was very organized and neat. The property had a lot of space and privacy. It was not a far drive to beech and sugar mountains and a short drive to blowing rock. I would highly recommend this to any one looking to get away to the mountains! :) Would love to book here again!
