Everything about this place was magnificent. From the views to the amenities, this property is definitely a place to get away from it all and engage in self-care.
Very clean and the views were great!
Our state was for a long weekend with our son and his wife and our daughter and her husband. We had a great stay. The cabin was beautiful and very well equipped. One small detail, one of the beds was very squeaky, and my daughter and her husband had to switch to another room. We had an extra room, so it was no problem. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to the area.
We loved the property! It was absolutely gorgeous, the hot tub was amazing along with the porches! Our only concerns were that the property wasn’t very clean. Completely understand it being in the mountains and having dust, but the countertops were very sticky, almost as if they hadn’t been wiped, there were cobwebs in the corners of the showers, as if they hadn’t been used in a while, and the banister for the stairs in the kitchen had a layer of dust resting on it. There is a light bulb out right near the sink in the kitchen and the bedroom downstairs closest to the grill had some bent bed legs and there was some trash and a sock left under the bed. There was also a section of screen missing in the hot tub space. We overall loved the place and would love to visit again sometime, whether with our family or a girls trip again! Thank you so much!!
Our stay was exactly what we were hoping for! It was quiet, relaxing, and the views all around were gorgeous!! We used the hot tub but kept it cool so it was refreshing in the heat. This home has so much room! It is well appointed. We cooked our meals in the lovely large kitchen. We only stayed a weekend so it feels like we didn’t get to really enjoy all the spaces and amenities the house offers. If you are looking for quiet solitude in a big, beautiful home with fabulous sunsets you must visit! I would absolutely return!
Property was well maintained and clean. Beautiful house and view. Very relaxing.
Such a relaxing and comfortable space to spend a weekend with friends. This was our second time staying and we hope to make this an annual event.
The property is very private in a great mountain neighborhood. Incredible and endless views, tons of room to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet and the company of friends. We will be back next year for sure.
This was a beautiful house to stay at in the fall, with great views of the foilage
Beautiful home with spectacular views! Home was very clean and very well stocked. Would highly recommend this home!
This is the ideal place to enjoy time with family! Beautiful hardwood floors, high ceilings and huge kitchen island. Plenty of room, indoor and out. We each had direct deck access, which was great! Definitely would recommend! Also the owner was kind and quickly answered all my questions.
In short, me and my wife were looking for a place to celebrate our 22nd Anniversary. Just happened to look on Vrbo site and saw this wonderful place. We contacted the owner and they responded within 30 minutes and accepted our request. It was a great place to relax and getaway. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the relaxed atmosphere, the views were spectacular. Hoping to be able to get back sometime soon.
This house was gorgeous with breathtaking views. The owners did a fantastic job of providing so many great features and guides to make the most out of your trip. My friends and I look forward to rebooking for next year and staying longer. This house, by far, was the best house we have ever rented for a weekend.
Really lovely property, well-stocked kitchen, plenty of room for many people. Beds were comfortable, linens were soft, tasteful decoration, and plenty of peace and quiet. We stayed in all weekend and we’re not disappointed!
Great getaway with fantastic views, very peaceful yet close to great dining just down the hill although we should have never left even for the meal.
This property is amazing. Our group does an annual trip to the mountains from DC and this was by far our favorite house. The layout is great with absolutely incredible views! The house has everything you need and the living area is great to keep everyone together. We highly recommend staying here.
