Great cabin, great amenities, great location
We had a great weekend in the mountains with our daughter, son-in-law, and two grandkids. The cabin is very well appointed and well laid out to accommodate all of us. The grandkids enjoyed the hot tub, foosball table and big screen TV. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, silverware, pots/pans, etc.. if you want to stay in and prepare meals. Had both a Keurig and drip coffee maker. The dining room table was perfect for board games. We stayed in mid-December and the Christmas tree and decorations were a pleasant surprise. The cabin is located within an easy drive to downtown Boone (shopping and restaurants!). Be advised, the road up is steep and narrow - we brought tire chains in case, but thankfully didn't need them. We were a little disappointed in the level of cleanliness, but have addressed this with the management company as its their responsibility. The twin bed mattresses were really uncomfortable and should be replaced. Also, the cabin is a little smaller than the impression you get from the pictures, but it worked out fine for the 6 of us.

Spring Break at Mimi’s Cabinet
Wonderful location for skiing, snowboarding, doing tourist things, and just hanging out! Nice furnace in the front room is cozy but parents of small toddlers need to bring a gate to keep little ones at a social distance- no harm just preventative. Love the deck, hot tub etc- just perfect for viewing deer, rabbits and occasional bear traveling by. Think we will come back again! Thanks for the restful week!

Wonderful mountain weekend
We really enjoyed our stay! Mimi’s Cottage was clean and delivered an excellent experience. The only area for concern was the lack of heat for the bottom floor. One of our couples was unable to come so it worked out but with no heat for the 4th BR we will have to find another house next year. A TV in the living room would also be a nice addition. We froze when we did watch a ballgame downstairs. But we still had a great time!

Mimi’s Cottage was great! Very quiet neighborhood that was private. Close proximity to both Boone and Blowing Rock. Felt very comfortable walking the dogs in the neighborhood and the gated deck was perfect for them as well! Home was clean and well maintained. We would definitely stay here again!

Recent stay
While the property was beautiful, the kitchen counter tops were dirty and had bugs on them. I was disappointed only 1 wash cloth and 1 towel were available per guest. I understand we need to do laundry, when on vacation you don’t want to have to do that every day. Recommend adding additional towels and washcloths. Also washing detergent would have been nice. I have stayed at other cabins and all laundry supplies were provided. The location is great and I would stay again. Just a couple of things that would make the stays a little less inconvenient. Thanks

Great Family home
Although we had a minor panic attack everytime we parked down the slope and had to back out (because we had 2 cars we couldn't turn around) onto mountain road, we loved this house. close to everything, luckily no snow on mountain so our minivan was fine, otherwise 4x4 needed.

Great cabin!
We had a lovely time at Mimis cottage! Experienced an ice storm our first night which kept us indoors a lot and the views were still enjoyable from inside. The tv room in the basement was enjoyed nightly with family movie nights. All meals were cooked/prepared at the house and the kitchen had it all. Great place!
