Perfect place to stay
We loved Scott's place! Scott does a fantastic job communicating and is a real nice guy. The house is in a lovely setting with a clear steam and pond. We enjoyed making a fire in the firepit beside the pond. The beds were super comfortable and we liked having 3 king beds for 3 couples plus the other room for children. The location was great for going to Blowing Rock and the Parkway. We had everything we needed and really enjoyed our stay!

Memories Made
We had a wonderful stay at the property! There was plenty of room for our family. The beds were very comfortable and the dining spaces were huge! We had fun watching the tadpoles in the pond and listening to the bullfrogs from the porch at night. It was a very convenient location, close to Blowing Rock and Boone. Scott, the host, was readily available when I had questions. It was the perfect space for our big family to make some wonderful memories!

Perfect Mountain Get Away...
This house was perfect, and even prettier in person. My parents in their 60's complimented the details and comfortable bedding, My spouse and I loved how spread out the space was, My teenager loved the downstairs retreat, my 10 year old loved ping pong and eating outside on the large covered porch, and our dog loved the pond and creek on the property. This house was the perfect cozy mountain get away, complete with a warm fireplace and light dusting of snow during our stay. Scott was a very communicable host, and we hope to stay again sometime!

New Year's Stay
We went with another family to enjoy New Year's in the Blowing Rock area. The check in process was fantastic and the property owner was amazing. Scott (the property owner) was supper attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was a perfect fit for our group of 8. We enjoyed New Year's Eve at the house and had a fantastic night of dinner and games. The kitchen is perfectly stocked with supplies. On New Year's day we had a fun time tubing at Hawksnest! We hope to visit this home again in the future!

Nice and Quiet Gateway
I spent a couple of days during Christmas vacation here. It's a beautiful house with character. Scott the owner of the house was quite responsive. Only concern was that the room on the basement was a bit colder on the first night. There is a radiator in there but it has to run for a long time before the room starts getting warmer. Overall we had a great time. There are lots of board games and even a ping pong table for a bit of indoor fun.

Hiking Trip
We loved the location. It was close to Blowing Rock but remote and quiet. There was plenty of parking. We loved the living room area and the way the open floor layout allowed everyone to be together whether they were in the kitchen dining or living room areas. The gas fireplace was a big hit.

Great place to stay. So close to everything you want or need, yet secluded and peaceful. Host could not have been better, very communicative and quick to respond. I feel confident they would have handle any issue quickly if we had come up with one. Want to recommend, yet would like to keep it a secret :)

Great space for families
All three king-size beds were amazing. It’s hard to find rentals with great mattresses. We cooked dinner in every night and we had plenty of dishes, pots and pans to cook. The Washer, dryer and refrigerator are all brand new. The front yard was perfect for the kids to play. The location was also amazing. A mile from beautiful hikes and easy access to restaurants and grocery shopping. We would stay here again. The owner was a great communicator and check in was smooth

Perfection!
Home owner/ manager was so helpful and pleasant and answered our questions immediately- so responsive and kind. This house is perfect for our family consisting of 6 adults, 3 children ( 8 and under) plus a baby. The house was immaculate and had everything you could possibly need. Plenty of cooking supplies for a group like ours and the outside was amazing. Wonderful under cover area for the one day it rained and we opened the windows the rest of the trip because it was so cool outside. The kiddos loved catching and releasing the tadpoles in the pond and it kept them so busy. The adults could relax and let them play with no worries. It has a cute little stream in the back also. The fire pit area was perfect for s’mores. The gas grill was wonderful too. I’ve never rented a better cabin/ home in this area and we’ve been coming up here for decades. We will definitely return!
