Private Mountain Home w/ Incredible Views - 106 Acres, Hot Tub, Pool, Game Room

We had a fantastic stay. I cannot say enough good things about our time here. Owners were great and communication was perfect

Easy check-in, exceptionally well-stocked kitchen with high-end appliances.

Everything was wonderful. The house was amazing! The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The guys loved the game room and and the kids and I loved the pool. The views were magnificent. There was 14 of us and everyone had a fun time. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

This property was amazing. It had beautiful views of the mountains. We were able to do lots of hiking on the property. The kitchen was very well stacked with everything we all needed for cooking. Very spacious for our large family. The game room was a big hit. Also, of course the pool the kids loved the best. The communication between Gordy and Tracey was fast if you needed anything. Our family has already talked about going back and staying again.

Our family was fortunate to stay at the great escape, the pictures on the website doesnt do it justice! The view is absolutely breathtaking, the cabin is amazing, lots room, all the amenties we could have asked for, and the host was amazing!

We had a wonderful time at an incredible cabin with amazing views. We had a group of 14 of all ages plus 4 dogs. The dogs really enjoyed the outdoors with plenty of room to roam. The cabin was very well equipped and had plenty of room for our group. We were lucky enough to have a white Christmas during our stay which added to this beautiful property. We look forward to booking this cabin again. Maybe during warmer months when we can enjoy the pool and outdoor fire pit areas. The hosts were great and very responsive. Highly recommend this property.

The Great Escape is everything it looks like in VRBO and more. The view alone is incredible. The house is clean, comfortable and the large and wonderful kitchen had every appliance and utensil you could want or need. We have stayed in vrbos in many locations and never have we stayed in one with a such a wonderful kitchen. The hot tub and pool were also great! This house was perfect for our family get together. Everyone had their own room and space which was perfect but then between the game room ( which we really enjoyed) the kitchen and the Den it was perfect for spending time together. We also enjoyed plenty of time on the deck and by the fire pit. We just kept saying over and over how much we all loved it and everything was perfect. We would definitely stay again! We miss it already

We had a wonderful time at the great escape! House was beautiful and clean. Loved the large kitchen with 2 dishwashers and 2 fridges. Plenty of dishes, utensils for all. Beds were comfortable. The new game room is already a nice place to hang out in even though not completely finished. The pool and hot tub was great. We saw several shooting stars while sitting around the fire pit. The views were amazing. Beautiful and peaceful property. Would definitely visit again!

My family (including my husband, kids, my parents, siblings and all significant others, and my cousin) loved our stay here. It was big enough for everyone to be comfortable and have their own space. The two fridges and two dishwashers made it possible to cook and clean up after a large dinner for 14. There was plenty of space to hang out and the pool was perfect. The view was absolutely amazing. The owners were super responsive and helped out with anything we needed. We would absolutely recommend!

Our families have vacationed at the Great Escape 3 times now, driving in from FL, MI and NY and we’re already planning a 4th trip. It gets better every time with the addition of a pool and now a game room. Even though it rained half the time we were there we had so much to do right at the cabin. When we got out we went white water rafting (45 mins away) and did a 4 mile hike at Elk Knob with the kids (20 mins away). We love the views and the fact that 6 adults and 5 kids can stay here comfortably with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms.

Our family of 19 had an amazing time at this beautiful home. All the kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub and everyone loved hiking up the mountain. The newly remodel kitchen was beautiful! It was completely stocked with everything you could possibly need. We also enjoyed sitting around the bonfire every night with the amazing view!

The house was great. They recently enlarged the kitchen, added an additional bath and are working to finish the gameroom. The construction mess was a little disappointing, however we viewed it as growing pains for amenity improvements. Once the game room is finished it will be awesome. It has a pool table, shuffleboard table, card table and a wet bar with massive high ceilings. We enjoyed the large kitchen and two refrigerators and as other has mentioned the views are out of this world. We loved watching the changing of the weather over the mountians. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool, pool table and shuffleboard table as well as exploring the grounds. The Boone area is just beautiful and the weather was a much welcomed relief from the summer heat we are used to. The Great Escapewas just what this Texas family was looking for.

Beautiful property, views, sunsets! Plenty of room for everyone! The grandkids loved the swimming pool! We’ll be back!!

This property, The Great Escape, provided a wonderful retreat for our family. The host was especially cordial and responsive in all the communications prior to and during our stay. We especially enjoyed the pool and hot tub, explored parts of the property on several hiking trails, continually enjoyed the wonderful views of the (sometimes cloud filled) valleys. On several clear nights the star filled skies were very visible with no ambient light near us. The man who heads up maintenance and construction on the property was extremely responsive and gracious. He even plugged a punctured tire (so we could get off the mountain) and told us about the best tire places in the area. We had to climb a learning curve with some of the new appliances (are you familiar with induction stove tops?) and the many room AC units, but, again, found our host and maintenance guy extremely responsive whenever we asked for help. The dining room is awesome -- seats 14 and provides a glorious view of the valley and sunsets. We had all the amenities needed. Members of our tribe are sharing information about The Great Escape with friends and co-workers.

We are a 3 generation family that vacation together every summer. We chose this location due to the very large property, pool, hot tub and the spaciousness of the home itself. The pictures of the inside haven't been updated as yet...we were astonished upon entry as a extremely large room has been added (not quite finished yet) and will be awesome when completed. The kitchen has been enlarged and all new cabinets and appliances installed. I would have rated the cleanliness with 5 stars if the house cleaners hadn't missed a couple out-of-the-way spots but overall it was pristine. Our 3 teenage grandsons were hardly every around as they hiked the property and fished about 30 mins away daily. The beauty of the mountains, etc. made for a fantastic setting. We also rented the cabin on the property and I especially enjoyed sitting on the porch swing listening to the frogs! If you love nature and peacefulness you can't go wrong. The owner, Gordie was great to work with as well. Thank You Gordie!

This is our favorite place for family vacation! We love The Great Escape! The new kitchen is double in size, maybe more. The two dishwashers and refrigerators are so convenient for a crowd. The new game room wasn’t completely finished so will be looking forward to that next year. We love being outside so having the pool and woods provide plenty of fun. Also enjoyed the expansion of the deck. Gordie is always quick to respond and any issues dealt with right away.

Incredible views, very quiet and comfortable stay. Surprised at construction while we were there, but overall the house was incredible and just what we wanted. The new kitchen was amazing, stocked with high end appliances and dishes. It was perfect for our family night Chopped competition. Our group would definitely like to stay again!
