Family Friendly Serenity Retreat: Blue Ridge

House was very nice. Had everything as promised and even several spices which came in handy as we forgot a couple. Beware - hill to house was very steep and may be difficult for some cars.

Clean, quiet, well equipped. Beautiful property.

House is as beautiful as you see in the pictures and the views are amazing. We were a group of 5 adults and 4 kids, very well distributed house with nice touches as providing ropes and slippers in every restroom, good quality bath towels and linens, Also, provided coffee and enough laundry pods for at least 4 washes. With that being said, my checking was a bit traumatic as we arrived & the code was not working to get into the house, I immediately messaged host, thankfully my kids being curious starting wondering, basement door was left unlocked so we were able to go in and out of the cold weather, the host did reply to my message within 10 minutes and once in I did text her as the number was provided inside the cabin. I recoded a video and sent it to her to show I was doing it right and still wouldn't work. Then the fireplace on the main floor was not working, none of the candles inside or outside were working either, the BBQ was disgusting and the lights on top of the hottub were not working either. Host did send someone the next day 12/31 to clean the grill but did not look at anything else. She did give me the code to a lockbox that had an actual key but that was after a lot of back and forth. Overall communication and action can improve, holiday or not having the code not work is pretty major, we forgot to put the key once back in lockbox and were left out again, my kid had to crawl through a window. Bedrooms do not have any type of curtains, not very private.

Beautiful home with gorgeous views. Perfect spot for a quick girls weekend ! House was well equipped , bedding was super comfortable and owner was quick to respond to a few minor questions we had. Definitely would come back !

We enjoyed our stay for a 60th bday celebration with family. The weather wasn’t great, but we made the best of it and enjoyed the house. Definitely recommend for a large group. The basement was full of games and the layout of the house worked well. Only recommendation is to have a TV in the main living room and/or outdoor area. We brought our own and were able to setup for football watching. Great weekend overall!

My family and I enjoyed our stay. I selected this home to host a small family reunion. I knew I made the right choice when everyone kept saying house nice the home was and thanking me for choosing it. We all slept comfortably on the nice soft linen and enjoyed the mattresses( which was important due to some traveling so far.) Each living space allowed for great conversation and memories. The host provided great pre check in post check out instructions with timely responses to questions. 10 out of 10 in all categories would definitely recommend!!

Great location, beautiful cabin in the mountains, easy communication with the host. Very accommodating; However not very clean. There were stains on all of the bed covers and sheets. Long black hairs in the beds, also It appears that kids might have been staying there at some point, because there were boogers up in the loft bed particular. Might need to change maid services

This is the nicest house rental I’ve ever stayed at. It was beautifully decorated and well equipped with everything we needed. The beds and linens were super comfortable. The kids loved the games downstairs. The adults loved the lounge space and the deck. Jennifer was a pleasure to work with and very responsive to my questions. We had plenty of space for 4 families. The address is Cherry Log but it is basically in the Aska wilderness. We enjoyed the solitude but note that the house is 25 mins from town and grocery stores. I cannot say enough positive things about this house and would def recommend it!
