Avis YULE HOLIDAY GETAWAY

We really enjoyed our stay at Yule. The views were amazing and enjoyed the convenience of being in BRMC and all of the amenities that come along with it. Will definitely be back!

Very nice place. The restaurant is a little hit or miss and pickle ball rackets are no longer available to check out (bring your own).

I decided to stay in the mountains after a work trip in Blowing Rock, North Carolina. I thought… I would love to find a place with “a view” and invite my husband for an unexpected early 26th anniversary weekend get away! With a quick google search I found this absolutely amazing condo in BRMC! I had never even heard of the Blue Ridge Mountain Club! Jason had the most beautiful condo listed and to my suprise it was available! My boss and I decided to drop off my luggage and the head to our final meeting on Friday. When we walked in the condo it was decorated for Christmas in the most elegant way! We LOVED it! The beds are extremely comfortable, and all of the appliances and brand new amenities make this a luxurious mountain getaway! My husband and I basically stayed at the condo the entire time and relaxed on the swing. We took naps, listened to the breeze blow through the trees and the chirping of the mountain birds. It rained Sunday as we were packing up and we were so sad to say goodbye. We could have listened to the rain from the back porch all afternoon. We made reservations at the Lookout Grill and enjoyed the food immensely! We will definitely be back and would love to bring our parents, daughter and son-in-law over the holidays. Jason was quick to respond and so delightful in his communication. What an amazing last-minute getaway I cannot say it enough… it’s just what we needed! Until next time … :)

Pros: 1) the master bed was comfy. 2) There was plenty of space to move around and the bathroom was nice. Cons: 1) We lost all cellular signal once we left the guard tower. You go into a giant void for about 3.5 miles, and when you have never been there before, you feel completely lost. We had no idea where to go. 2) I did not like the owner's tone in the info sent to us after we booked the property for the weekend. He prints in bold letters the following: "Do not bring pets inside at anytime and do not smoke. I am asthmatic and it will send me to the hospital. You will pay for damages and medical bills if there is evidence of Pets inside.This is my second home. Please take care of it.Do not move furniture around or leave it in a mess.You will receive additional cleaning charge...if you do not take care of it." We have stayed in many places and have never encountered a tone like that, so I became very worried he might accuse us of making a mistake because of his tone, so it was impossible to relax. It also says:"Please walk & tread lightly during your stay and please no jumping or dancing (save that for the outdoor fire gardens ;)" Children are not allowed on the property, so this added to the uncomfortable feeling overall. 3) It was strange to us to show up to a LIT candle when we ARRIVED. I happened to notice it was actually lit in the kitchen right before we were leaving. Because of his tone when we booked, I was very alarmed that he may claim we left it burning, so I emailed him, and he simply said, "I lit the candle. I live here...." It was not a welcome gesture to me considering I did not know about it ahead of time. 4) The roads leading from the guard tower to the property are 25 mph for a reason the entire way: They are extremely twisty and have several very sharp turns. In winter, if there were the slightest bit of ice or snow, in my opinion, it could be extremely dangerous. I suggest you Google Earth these roads to see what I mean. Personally, this is too much of a chance in winter because, in my opinion, the slightest storm could be very problematic. He said they do a good job of clearing the roads, but I would always call ahead and ask the guard tower during winter. 5) We found out (walked over there) when we arrived that all restaurants on the property are closed through Feb 7 even though they don't say that online. Don't plan to eat there if you come before then. Plan to drive those roads every time you want to get food.

Unbelievable views and an amazing property that makes you want to come back!

This is a breathtaking property. I’m not a morning person and I watched EVERY Sunrise 🌅 Even on a Foggy morning, it didn’t disappoint. You get exactly what you see in the listing. Jason was wonderful to work with. We would stay here again.

Wonderful experience! The host was fantastic and the property was perfect!

It was a very comfortable place to stay & the views were wonderful. When we booked on VRBO, we were led to believe checkout was at 11am. This changed to 10am when we arrived. This was inconvenient and we think 10am is a too early checkout.

BRMC is a great getaway. October leaf season is perfect.

We loved this property. It was beautifully decorated, the views were just gorgeous, the beds comfortable and the nespresso machine was just the cherry on top :). Such a fun weekend, cannot wait to come back.
