This place was as advertised. Beautiful and modern with every amenity needed. Our kids had a blast. Great location to Sugar mountain and grocery store. Hot tub was a life saver after skiing all day. Wife loves the heated bathroom floors. We will be back! Can’t say enough about how nice this place is. Very clean! - Brant D., February 2026 (review left under prior management)

This is a gorgeous home and very well set up for an extended stay. Everything in the home appears to be new and clean. There is a very nice outdoor space overlooking a creek. We look forward to staying here again. - Tami M., October 2023 (review left under prior management)

This has been the cleanest house we have rented from anywhere so we were very happy. Everything worked properly, was spacious, and even though it’s on a slightly busier road, once you are in the backyard, it feels so private. The location was very convenient too. - Kathy P., September 2024 (review left under prior management)

Our kids (7 &9) said this was the best house we’ve ever rented! My husband and I may agree!! It was beautifully decorated, comfortable (beds are firmer, but still comfy in our opinion), and the back patio/yard was incredible. We enjoyed sitting by the fire pit, climbing on the big boulders, and walking on the rocks in the creek. Our kids spent all of their time outside which was amazing! The house is not totally private- you are close to the main road and can see a home/shop across the creek…but somehow this didn’t take away from the great vibes the house and yard had. We truly enjoyed every moment! About 15 minutes from Boone and Banner Elk and 20 minutes from Blowing Rock. Check out the Grandfather Vineyard and Winery right down the road for another beautiful ambiance! - Amanda K., June 2026 (review left under prior management)

The house was perfect for our family and provides a cozy, yet spacious, vacation spot in the mountains. Location is great and the property itself is wonderful. Fixtures and appliances are up to date and high quality. Outdoor space has everything for adults and kids to enjoy. One of the best properties we have experienced in the area. - Michael K., October 2025 (review left under prior management)

The house is in a great location, close to the main road, in the middle of anywhere you would want to go whether that is Blowing Rock, Boone, or Banner Elk. Very nice home with lovely decor and furniture. The view of the river was amazing! We would stay here again. - Sherry M., July 2024 (Review left under prior management)

We absolutely loved this property and its location! It was convenient to so many fun activities - 25 minutes to Grandfather mountain and 15 minutes to Boone - and was super easy to get to from a main road. And yet, the backyard felt so secluded with views of a mountain, creek and gorgeous trees. The house itself is wonderful - extremely clean, fully stocked kitchen, and high-quality appliances and furniture. The hot tub, fire pit, ping pong table and shuffleboard table gave our kids plenty to do at the house - not to mention hours spent throwing rocks into the creek. We can't wait to come back! - Ellen F., September 2025 (review left under prior management)

We absolutely loved the house! The location was great. You could hear the river when seated outside which was very relaxing. The hot tub and fire pits were fantastic! Inside, the heated floors in the bathrooms were so luxurious! Beds were comfy. The kitchen was beyond perfect. We are hoping to stay again one day!!! - Carol M., May 2026 (review left under prior management)

The house was absolutely lovely! Everything was exactly as pictured. The backyard was heaven for my kids. The heated bathroom floors were amazing. Well stocked kitchen with good quality cookware. They provided extra towels for the hot tub. We had such a great experience and would happily stay here again! - Amy T., July 2024 (review left under prior management)

Hate steep roads and driveways? Then this is the place for you! Great location in the valley next to the Watuga River. Home is charming and modern and clean with lots of amenities for when we weren’t on the slopes. Kids and our dog loved playing outside on the rocks by the river. Home has a nice layout with plenty of space for our family of four, we could have easily hosted more people on this trip. Short drive on the main roads up to Sugar for skiing. I’m already planning our next visit! - Kristen A., January 2024 (review left under prior management)

This house was perfect in every way. The location gave us easy access to great hiking and felt like its own little hideaway with the backyard setup - the idyllic creek backdrop was beautiful and a perfect spot for fires around the fire pit and an evening in the hot tub. The house itself was so clean and had all the right touches - comfy seating for a family movie night, shuffleboard, ping pong and bag toss for family activities - not to mention the comfortable beds and enough space for everyone to retreat to. Thank you for the perfect setting for our annual family trip! - Hannah S., April 2024 (review left under prior management)

This property is stunning. So stunning I want to keep it a secret but can’t. Any modern need you want is probably in this highly upgraded property. The pictures do not do it justice. We all 5 said “wow” the second we walked in the door. My kids had an absolute blast in this house thanks to the ping pong and shuffleboard. They said it’s their favorite place we’ve ever stayed. We are already looking to see when we can come again. The property owner did such a great job… it’s all in the details. - Melinda D., September 2025 (review left under prior management)

We had a great time didn’t get to enjoy the jacuzzi…. Temps outside were just a bit too brisk while there. The house was clean and comfortable. It was a relaxing vacation for us. Perfect! - Carol W., November 2023 (review left under prior management)

The property itself was gorgeous and the amenities were wonderful. The property management group made the process easy to check-in and out. Our only issue was the cleaning crew that came in before we got there did not do a very good job. I will say we did not call the property mgmt group as we were only staying two nights. Our bathtowels were all wet in the washer and the dishes had not finished their cycle and were still drying upon arrival. Medication was found on the bathroom floor along with used cutips. The baseboards had not been cleaned in a while and dust gathered in areas on the floor. This has since been reported and hopefully the mgmt company will follow up. I would still recommend this location and would honestly come back again with hopes the cleanliness would be better. It truely is a great location between Sugar Mtn and Boone without any worries of climbing the mountains during snow. - Heather D., February 2024 (Review left under prior management)

The home was absolutely gorgeous!! And clean! We felt right at home. The beds were comfy, we were spoiled by the heated tiles in the bathrooms, and the kitchen was well stocked. I appreciated the towels and sheets weren’t heavily perfumed from detergent! We used the high end kitchen and grill and everything was great. We considered renting a home with a view of the mountain range but ultimately chose this home bc of the amenities for our family. We are so glad we did. We have 3 kids and they didn’t want to leave. The little shuffle board at the front of the home was perfect in the rain. We were spoiled by watching the tv from the hot tub each night. The fire pit was very enjoyable as was the deck area overlooking the creek. We spent hours in the creek and made so many memories in nature. We would highly recommend and hope to visit again!! - Kellie R., July 2024 (review left under prior management)

We loved the location of this home, both the easy access to anywhere we wanted to go in the area and the beautiful creek it is on! The fire pit and outdoor spaces were a lovely way to spend our evenings. The home is updated with gorgeous features, and it had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We didn't bring our dogs with us, but the home is very dog friendly, and something we will keep in mind for future bookings. Check in and check out were easy, and overall, we had a very lovely stay! - Danielle S., July 2026 (review left under prior management)
