Our stay was wonderful! The house is clean, comfortable, and beautifully arranged with maximum functionality in every space. With a large group, the sinks in the bedrooms were especially helpful. The owners were quick to respond when the house had a mechanical issue, and provided plenty of sheets, towels, and amenities. It is worth noting that the basement stairs have a low height-clearance. Not a reason not to stay, but something to plan for if some of your group is on the tall side.We especially loved our time around the fire pit out back. Everything about this house was perfect for us, and we're already hoping to re-book!

Very nice great location! Need more info about cable available or bring your own streaming. Foosball and porch great for rainy day. Need sign for warning over bottom floor stair for low headspace. Some conflicting information between pre and during messages. All things considered, a wonderful stay in beautiful Montreat.

Excellent property in the heart of Montreat and so close to downtown Bkack Mountain. Plenty of space, AC and Heat worked great, and the beds were so comfortable! Tons of kitchen appliances and tools, just overall great house! We will return!
