Considering the house is at 4400 feet elevation it’s fairly easy to get to. Very access to BRP. The downstairs bedroom and bath room are heated by electric portable heaters if your staying in the winter it may be cool downstairs
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2023
The property was clean, well maintained, and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We really liked sitting out by the fire, and hanging out on the porch as the weather was beautiful. The view of the valley was amazing and you could see for hundreds of miles. Sunrise and sunset were breathtaking. Would definitely recommend this property for a weekend getaway, and close proximity to the Casino in Cherokee as well.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jun 2023
Nice place to stay with some great views. Kitchen was solid, plenty of space within the house itself. Firepit was a nice to have. Dirt roads to get into the community were very manageable (we were there in the spring), but would recommend a vehicle with higher clearance.

Grounds need up keep. We didn’t have water several time. Contacted owner. No offer for compensation. Overall nice place.
