My family and I enjoyed staying in this condo. The unit was very nicely appointed and had all the conveniences of home. The view from the back porch was amazing. Condo was well suited for those with children, no stairs to climb and plenty of games and toys to keep little ones occupied. Gas fireplace was convenient.
The gated community it is located in is especially picturesque during the winter months. We took a short drive in the neighborhood up the mountain and came to a secluded snow covered trail where we enjoyed playing in the untouched snow. Also, just across the street from the neighborhood is a nice trail to go exploring in the woods and cross over a small river, very serene. This was all for free and we had the whole place to ourselves.
The girls at the front office were especially helpful and nice, answering questions I had and offering restaurant suggestions. Would recommend trying Woodlands for BBQ, about a 15min drive into Blowing Rock(you drove by it when you came into town) but well worth it.
Only complaint I had was the Internet. The unit advertised as having wifi but I couldn't connect with my mobile devices. When I talked to the front office they said the unit had Internet but it wasn't wireless, they had wifi at the community pool. If I had known I would've brought a laptop and not my iPad, this is not usually a big deal to me since i don't conduct work from my computer or care about social media but was tedious when looking up info regarding activities and dining especially since the 3G is spotty in the MTNS.
This didn't hinder my fantastic opinion of this place, location is great, far enough from downtown without feeling too remote. I would not hesitate staying here again with my family, we were sad to leave.
