Our family had a great stay. It was close to Boone and blowing rock but just a very busy weekend mid October. However, the place was perfectly clean, linens smelled amazing, very spacious for our group of 6. The host was extremely responsive and great communication. Things I loved: coffee station (although creamer packs would be good😉), sofas large and cool sitting space on top edge which I’ve never seen, beds slept comfortably, gas heaters on back upper porch, nice bathrooms, spacious kitchen and family area, loft windows bring in a lot of natural light.) Improvements: not sure - none at this time.
