    We loved this house and Garth was a wonderful host. The location was perfect, had beautiful views, was comfortable and well stocked and the kids LOVED the downstairs kid space!

    This cabin was great for our group! It felt very homey, the amenities and bathroom were well taken care of, and everything was clean. We didn’t have any issues. Thank you for hosting us! Easy to find too

    We really liked this place - so many beds to choose from, so many great cozy spots to relax! Very pretty cabin, with lots of comfortable couches so curl up on and hang out with family. The game room was fun too - and lots of bathrooms to go with all the beds! We would definitely stay here again.

    We had a wonderful stay at this cabin in Boone. The place was clean, cozy, and very well maintained, and its close proximity to downtown, skiing, and hiking spots made our trip especially memorable. The host was extremely responsive and helpful, and everything was exactly as described. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it.The only challenge we experienced was parking — the driveway is quite steep and sharp, so we would not recommend bringing more than two vehicles.

    Cabin was awesome and big enough for the whole family. Only issue we had was the small parking space trying to fit 4 cars in. But other than that it was a great stay!

    Host was very accommodating, responsive to all my questions and pleasant. The cabin is so charming- loaded with character. Our family enjoyed the game room. The kitchen, dining and living area are so comfy and cozy with ample room to enjoy the space. The fire pit and yard so easy to maneuver and enjoy. Clearly, we loved our time at Grandfather Vista!
