Enter the home up a stone path. The great room, accessed from a half-flight up from the foyer, has a stone woodburning fireplace with a large HDTV mounted above. A leather sectional sofa faces both the fireplace and the sliding doors to the deck overlooking the views, and a dining table for 8 is at the far end. Three bay windows overlook the front yard and allow lots of natural light into the house. There's room for 5 in high chairs at the island, and the chefs in your group will enjoy preparing meals in the light and airy kitchen with granite counters & stainless appliances. There is a half bath off the kitchen as well.
Down the hall is a full bath with a tub & shower and double vanities. Across from that is a bedroom with a twin-over-full bunk bed, and at the end of the hall is a bedroom with a Queen bed. The master suite is also on this hall, and has a King bed, private deck leading to a flat yard area, and a private bathroom with a tiled shower.
Down half a flight of steps is the laundry room. Down another half-flight is a den with leather furniture and another large HGTV. A private room with a Queen bed is off this room. A hallway adjoins the den and has a full bath with shower, and at the end of the hall is a private room with a King bed.
The main level deck, accessed from the great room, has a selection of furniture to relax and enjoy the view. Therapeutic hot tub is on the lower patio to soak your cares away!

Everything promised in the AD. Excellent facilities, good service, quick response to a maintenance issue. Great location for sightseeing and close to biking parks and amusement parks. Recommend it to all with larger groups.
8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2021
We really loved the location and the views from the great room. It was cool watching the skiers and snowboarders. We were upset that we weren’t notified that the hot tub was not functional. The downstairs bathroom window is boarded up and it was cold when the wind was blowing . There was no propane so we could not grill out. The house overall is in need of some love.

We loved the house and it’s location. The rental company was friendly and very responsive to our issues.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2020
The pictures on the listing don't do it justice, the house was very nice inside. The view was also amazing from the decks and yard! There location is also nice, it is both remote and nicely close, taking about 10 minutes to get to Boone or Blowing rock, and being very close to the parkway. Some other reviews mention the road to the house being rough, and it could be in winter weather, but it was just fine for our stay in October.
There was a large kitchen table that I don't recall in the photos that fit 8, and another table for 4. The kitchen has most of the cooking vessels and utensils you would need, though we did need our dutch oven.
There largest part of the yard is pretty steep, but there are two nice side yards kids can play in. No fire pit, but the fireplace in the house was great.
Our only complaints would be the beds being hard, and the hot tub being out of service.
