4BR Home with Game Room, Pool Table & Fire Pit

Needs updating

The house had beautiful views. Very spacious for families to have fun and not be on top of each other. I was not happy with some of the patio furniture. Some of that needed to be thrown away since it was unsafe to sit in. Cleanliness could have been better. There was little pieces of trash we think from the previous tenants. We just throw that away. Showers could have been cleaner. The showers are very dark. Could use some light weight shower curtains, plus lighter in color. But over all we truly enjoyed our stay and was very comfortable in the home. Loved the views from the top two bedrooms and both back porches.

They cabin had ampule space and everything we needed. The theater room was the icing on the cake! The Customer service was amazing!! We had one small issue that was taken care within 30 minutes of notifying them. Also my son left behind a belonging and they went above and beyond to get it back to him.

This house was great for our two families.

Nice home. Lights a little on the dim side. The projector screen directions need updating. Some of the remotes are not the same as those in the instructions. Could not get it to work. Did not use the jacuzzi. If you are going to advertise a jacuzzi, it should be included in the overall price. We had 4 adult couples and we had a very good time.

Our family group (2 couples & two teens) loved staying at Blowing Rock Retreat this past weekend. The view was even more beautiful than the pictures, and we spent so many wonderful hours enjoying the covered back deck (even in the rain!). The house was ideal since each couple and the teens had their own floor (& separate A/C). The pool table was a big hit, and we had fun watching shows on the big screen downstairs. The kitchen was perfect for making home-cooked meals (with the exception of dull knives - typical for vacation rentals). And the kitchen table hosted many lively discussions and lots of laughter. We all found the beds to be comfortable, and our niece & nephew particularly enjoyed the bunk room. There were a few maintenance issues (sinks not draining properly, door lock not working, etc.), but Carolina Cabin Rental came the same day. Their maintenance person was friendly and quickly took care of the issues. We also found the phone reps for Carolina Cabin Rentals to be helpful as well. The only downside to the property (4 stars vs 5 stars) was the state of the walls and some of the furniture (owner issues). Many of the walls were scratched, wallpaper in the upstairs hall bathroom was falling off, a deck chair had a broken seat, etc. None of the above kept us from having a wonderful time - it just felt tired compared to the caliber of the location & view. We truly loved our stay & we're hoping to return next year & make even more memories!

The house was great for our trip to Blowing Rock. Excellent location for hiking trails as well as downtown visits.

Great place to stay with the family and beautiful views.

The house was absolutely perfect for our family of 6. Had everything for all age ranges from pool table to movie theater and the views are just breathtaking. We all had plenty of space to find peace from one another and we all enjoyed gathering around the fireplace at night to enjoy one another. The hot tub on the lower deck was a great way to cap off the day. The location was perfect, close to Blowing Rock, Boone, Seven Devils, Banner Elk. Will definitely be back soon!!!

We rented this cabin for our extended family vacation. The location of the cabin was perfect for experiencing everything that the High Country has to offer. There was plenty of space for the 9 of us to spread out and not be on top of each other. One frustration is that for a cabin that can sleep 10, there wasn't enough seating for everyone around the kitchen table. That led us to finding extra chairs or some people sitting other places for meals. The projector downstairs was also broken when we arrived and wasn't able to be fixed until mid-week. However, the communication about that was great. My only other big frustration came about a week prior to our vacation when I received a call from someone at Carolina Cabin Rentals. Apparently the Vrbo listing and the one on the actual company website don't match. On the website it states that you can only have 2 cars at the cabin, it didn't state this anywhere on the Vrbo listing. We had families coming from 3 different places and had planned on bringing 3 cars. The woman who called about this, seemed to be frustrated with me not knowing that there was a 2 car policy. She asked if I had checked the website and I told her that I had only looked at Vrbo because I assumed it had all the information I needed. She then told me that she didn't know what was on that listing. She did offer for us to park a car at the rental office that was 30 minutes away. I wish the listing on Vrbo had been correct, because that's something we would have taken into account when making our decision. I also felt that the customer service lacked some when I was called about an issue I wasn't aware of and didn't feel like was something I had created. You can't ask for a better location than this cabin. The deck was great to have coffee on each morning. Overall we had a great week!
