Wonderful stay!
We stayed for my dad's 70th and it was probably one of the best family vacations we've had! Great location, cozy large house, wonderful amenities. Loved the pizza oven, hot tub, and especially the large kitchen breakfast table! Hope to do it again next year :)

Wonderful family stay
Everything was wonderful - maybe take a little more time cleaning sheets - two of the beds and small black hairs (like dog hair) no worries we just rewashed them - and another recommendation clear some space for the guests staying to put food/spices/condiments- every cabinet-drawer-crevice was full to the brim so we just put our stuff on the island or in our containers on the floor Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us

This is our second time bringing our kids and grandkids. The home is beautiful, especially, the master bath that has been recently renovated. The property is close to the grocery store and Hawksnest Tubing park, which was perfect for us! Cant wait to book again for 2023 Christmas trip!!

Winter family cabin getaway
We always do a winter family vacay just after Christmas and New Yrs, have for several yrs, usually near Knoxville area in pigeon forge or Norris lake but decided to go in Banner Elk/Blowing Rock, NC area. This was undoubtedly the best place we’ve stayed, so much room, so accommodating. Large family areas on both main and lower floor made it great for everyone to enjoy. Beautiful bdrms and baths, large game area for game nights. Large gas log fireplace sets the tone on a winter day. Just loved every minute.

Great property in great location
The house itself quite large, and bedrooms are scattered about on different floors, perfect for our family. Plenty of bathroom space, also. The hot tub was a hit, and with the HUGE outdoor TV, we had great fun watching football while in the hot tub. The outdoor pizza oven was a hit! Several of our guests had to work remotely during our week, and the Wi-Fi did not disappoint. Morning coffee on the porch was very relaxing.

Huge Spaces and 'Homey'
Loved all the many separate spaces and large family table indoors and outdoors. Although it was just 2 of us couples, we all agreed it would be great for a family reunion. Fantastic game room, comfortable beds, huge outdoor patio and dining space, 2 separate sitting spaces, etc etc. All rooms/spaces are large enough or far away enough from each other that there is much privacy and very quiet. Very well thought out large cabin amongst beautiful surroundings. Easy location for day trips.

Our Mountain Birthday Celebration
Kitchen was well stocked, except for a broken toaster, only one side of the outdoor grill worked, made it difficult as we had 12 people.... and we had to buy a can opener....outside fire pit was so enjoyable. We did not use the hot tub. Beautiful front yard and view of mountains...lots of outdoor seating areas...kids enjoyed the downstairs gameroom...we would definitely return...winery is so close and one of the best I've been to, we were all seated next to the river..

High School Buddies
We had a great time at this listing. Perfect for the 6 of us with each having their own bedroom. The location and convenience to Boone and Banner Elk made the home a great find. The amenities were as advertised, but two of the TVs failed to operate correctly and the downstairs fireplace was in-operable. The house was well appointed with most anything you might need for your stay. The linens and pillows were very nice. The views were great, although not as high as we would have liked. Over-all, I would rate this property as a 4+
