Hike, fish, swim & ski! Close to Grandfather Mountain, skiing & Linville Falls

The house was great! Very clean and convenient to the ski slopes!

Great communication and the home had all the amenities that we needed!

Great house!

We had a great stay! The cabin is in an adorable neighborhood and we loved driving by the beautiful lake at the entrance. The guest book was super helpful, and trying to locate the squirrels was fun! Great distance from Sugar Mountain for skiing and a trip into Boone.

The house was perfect for our family vacation - well laid out and plenty of space for our family of five. Kitchen was very well equipped and stocked with essentials and then some. House was very clean and comfortable (including beds). Highly recommend.

This was our second time staying at the Balsam cabin. We had a great time and will certainly be back again!

Very nice property, great location, immaculately clean. Essentials supplied.

The place was beautiful and well stocked!

The place was immaculate and filled with everything you could need. Lovely place in a great location.

I can not begin to share how grateful we are. This home is exactly as shared. Extremely comfortable, fully stocked with everything we needed. What sets this home above any other rental???? The owners!!! They are extremely kind, super easy to work with and super responsive. We rented the home for three weeks and I promise, we will not rent another home in this development except for this one.My sincere thank you to the owners. You all are top notch!!

We had a marvelous time! Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen (we cooked all our meals at the house), and the included community amenities are above and beyond. Downstairs is great for kids. Very private feel while still within a community.

Very comfortable with plenty of room for socializing and playing games.I love the openness of the floor plan and that there was a separate sunroom for the kids to play in.Would definitely rent again.

We enjoyed our month-long stay! Plenty of sunshine, space, and amenities. The kitchen was well-equipped for meal prep and cooking. Our family of 5 was very comfortable. The owner was quick to respond to any messages. At this time there is no A/C, so on the warmer days be prepared to pull out the fans and open the windows to create a breeze with the clean, fresh mountain air! We found lots to do in the area. Our kids loved Tweetsie Railroad and Grandfather Mountain, especially. The towns of Boone and Blowing Rock are close by with fun playgrounds. There is a Children’s Playhouse in Boone that was absolutely delightful, and would be great to visit on a rainy day. Overall a 5-star stay, with very courteous owners!

This location was perfect! My family and I had a great stay here. It provided much of the necessities that we needed. Enjoyed the view around us, especially in the mornings. We would come back to this place again.

We had a great ski weekend here. The property had plenty room for all of us. The king bed in the main bedroom was super comfy! The TV room is great for watching a movie all together. There were plenty of cozy blankets and the fire was a nice, easy way to warm up the house and feel cozy. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and we made all our dinners. The linens were clean and the game room in the community center was super fun! The host is super reachable and answered my many questions quickly. We would definitely stay there again!

I loved the layout of the property. There was plenty of space to congregate or segregate. Google house was fun. There was a couple very small things like a used sponge for dishes , There was only 1 pod for dishwasher (I left a bag) A heavier wall decoration had fallen off the wall behind toilet in the main bathroom. However these are barely worth mentioning. It was very clean and very cozy! Plenty of TV viewing choices was a plus! Overall I highly recommend!

Great home in a quiet neighborhood, within distance to plenty to do.

Went snow tubing. Fun weekend.

Great location, well maintained, stocked with everything you may need, host communication superb! Had a great time with friends ringing in the new year in this cozy cabin!

We had a great time at the Balsam house! It is perfect for families. We've stayed in a few houses within Land Harbor and this is easily the most updated and convenient. The baby gate was clutch for us (thank you, John!). The beds were comfy and the kitchen was very well stocked. We were able to cook all the sides for Thanksgiving at the house! We would happily return. Highly recommend!

Very clean, great location. Our grandkids loved the basement.
