Host was very responsive. Place was exceptionally clean. Plenty of games and toys for kids. Neighborhood is very quiet. Took walks everyday. The beautiful wood floors are a bit creaky, so keep that in mind if you are a light sleeper or trying to sneak out late at night ;)

Lovely, nice blend of antique furniture and amenities. The twin beds were a bit slippery, my son slid off the side twice while sleeping. I had him sleep close to the wall the next night and it was fine. Comfortable like grandma's house and everything in good working order. Will definitely book again next time we come to town.

Cozy getaway

Ideal location for our girls trip. We were able to shop several antique stores in Taylorsville and Hickory between our days at Emerald Hollow Mine. Home was cozy and quiet and met all our needs.

Charming house

Booked this property a year in advance for a dance competition. Property was perfectly decorated and clean. All the added touches like coffee pods, bottled water, soap and games were a big plus! Our only complaint our the beds. They squeak every time you move but this is no fault of the owner. There are mattress proctors on them that causes the noise. Would definitely book here again.

I loved the home. It was very cute and cozy. Quiet neighborhood and close to Emerald Hollow Mine. If you love going antique shopping there are a lot of places to check out. House was very clean and Kim was super great to work with and very accommodating to our needs. I would highly recommend this house to anyone.

All Star Weekend

Our plans landed us here for the NASCAR All Star races in North Wilkesboro. The area was conveniently located for us and was a great area. I love this part of the state, it’s beautiful. The house was great, clean, and had everything we needed and more. Plenty of places to eat or get whatever we wanted very close to the house, some walking distance. Beds were comfortable and again everything was very clean. Host was very accommodating, check-in and out was a breeze and communication was very good. We hope to stay here again someday, highly recommend to anyone. Thank you again for everything!!

New puppy trip

We needed a one night stay, so we could pick up our new puppy the next day. Kim's place was perfect! Such a lovely and charming house. Plenty of space, and had all the comforts on hand. It's in a safe, quiet neighborhood, and it's very clean. If we're ever up this way again, we won't hesitate to stay here! Thank you, Kim!

Very nice for our first vrbo stay. Lots of extras. We didn’t need a thing! Bigger than we needed for just the two of us. Places to stay close to family were very limited. Worked great for us!

Perfect Home For Anyone

We enjoyed our time. Plenty of space and close to a really cool little coffee shop down the street. Kid friendly with games and toys and a lot of room to run around in the backyard for epic hide and seek! Internet is wicked fast. Grocery store within walking distance.
