    The owner was super kind and responsive to any questions. The home was clean and seemed recently renovated/updated. The location is great because the house is close to downtown, so it is easy to get to restaurants, shops, etc. Overall, it was a great stay and we would stay again in the future.

    We had a fabulous time. All ages were very happy. Kids could walk to the park to play basketball. Everything was so convenient. We all loved our stay in Blowing Rock!

    Property was easy to find and cute. Host was easy to communicate with. It is 2 story, which was detailed. Downstairs, the only TV and sitting area is in daybed room off kitchen. We spent a lot of time at dining table as family since that was only area downstairs to sit together while cooking and such.Please note, living room is upstairs with TV.House was clean and had all we needed. The only negative was island in kitchen. It was wooden and lots of food buildup in cracks.Bathrooms, beds all great. We would stay again. Close to all places we enjoy.

    Super comfortable. Discovered we didnt have toaster but a quick mesaage to Emily and we had one that day. Only one minor complaint, the ad says 2 twin beds but it is a twin and rollout trundle which isnt real suitable for aduts in their late 60s. Lol. But one of our group canceled last minute so did'nt even matter. We came fir an annual sports car event and if we dont come next year to stay there, we will highly recommend The Carriage House!

    Owner was great with communication. Home Decorated nicely. The kitchen was well stocked With dishes & towels. Bedrooms were good size. Bathrooms with linens and good size. Downstairs bed & bath really nice. Small no door trundle bedroom could use a door. (It’s right off kitchen) Comfy upstairs living room. Laundry room upstairs a plus. Convenient to downtown. Great stay!

    We loved our stay in Emily’s Carriage House! It was exactly as described, and was charming. There was plenty of room for five adults and two children, and had ample family gathering space as well. It was a 10 minute walk to town (as advertised), and provided a private and lovely mountain respite.
