Great location and views all around. Spent an entire month here and had various friends' family visit. The setup was solid (although only three rooms have a view of the mountains). They do have some cameras that may point inside toward the living room area, but not sure if they are functioning or not. There is a camera at the end of the house that points toward the yard/hot tub lower level area. They should probably remove those and/or fully point them away from the house. But if you are not concerned about the cameras, this place is great.

Absolutely Perfect!

If I could give the property 10 stars, I would. The home was perfectly described in the listing, but even more beautiful in person. My family of 14 were able to stay here and have everything we wanted/needed and had PLENTY of space to spread out. The rooms were clean, the bathrooms were stocked with towels and necessities, the kitchen had all of the utensils and pots/pans we needed, and the grill was ready to go. Nora was an excellent host, providing great communication all along the way. We will DEFINITELY be looking to book this home again!

Amazing mountain getaway

The house looked beautiful online and it was even better in person. Everything that we seemingly needed/wanted was available on property. So much room throughout the house and it was very modern and up-to-date. We would definitely book again. The communication with the owner was fantastic.

What's Not To Love?!

Our extended family of 13 stayed here for a mini-family reunion with ages ranging from 23-90. The property was AMAZING...with stunning mountain views from the wrap-around porch. There were plenty of bedroom & bathroom configurations to accommodate our group. We took full advantage of all the amenities, playing pool, cards around the dining table, dominoes, giant connect 4 & bags. The home is gorgeous and has everything you need plus some. Nora was extremely responsive and gave some great recommendations. It was about a 40 min. drive to Asheville, but the views were worth it. We will be back!!!
