    House was very clean and well stocked. Had no issues communicating with the owner. House was in a perfect location - we walked to town and did not have to worry about parking. Will definitely stay here again.

    The cottage location is perfect for a short (1/4 mile?) to Main st. The cottage is well maintained, clean and updated. Emily and Mike were very gracious in answering questions or Coming to show us how the fireplace worked. We would definitely stay here again.

    We enjoyed our long weekend. Emily reached out and had extra salt delivered if we needed it in case of weather. Home as described and was perfect for the 7 of us. Location was perfect in the heart of Blowing Rock and only a 10 min. Drive to App ski resort. Would recommend!
