Charming Chalet In Gated Golf Course Community Of The Hound Ears

Gorgeous setting nestled among trees and rocks, a wonderful feeling of privacy with excellent access to major roads. We were attending celebration events so did not have an opportunity to cook and eat at the house, but the kitchen was nicely detailed with appliances, mugs, glasses, etc. Each of our five couples had comfortable sleeping space, although one room was bunk beds and one was a pull-out sofa -- it all worked. The only cautionary note: It is steep terrain and the decorative staircase is fun but impossible for anyone with mobility issues. Our family member who is recovering from a surgery went in and out via the decks facing the bedrooms (the most level access). When we had questions prior to the visit, the owner was very responsive. All in all, a great experience and we will hope to visit again!

Peaceful vacation.

The house was clean and had everything we needed. My only surprise was that there are actually 4 bedrooms (if it doesn't have four walls and a door I don't consider it a bedroom). I would stay there again.

I love to give reviews, particularly when the experience is better or equal to expectations. It's much harder to do when they are not. Our family stayed for 7 nights in this Chalet, but due to the extremely cold weather & limited heating, we could only take advantage of the upstairs. Fortunately, there was enough room for the 4 of us upstairs. In addition, I felt the floors were dusty, particularly where floors meet the base boards, in closets, & under beds. I found myself sweeping bc I couldn't get the vacuum to clean those areas very well. Having young children, the floors are extremely important me. On the flip side, the owners are very pleasant & they quickly had the malfunctioning heater vent on the 2nd floor bedroom replaced with a portable one the same day we called them. Outside of those issues, the chalet is comfortable, has wooden floors, with 4 bedrooms & 3 baths, the master is spacious with an updated bath. the kitchen is also updated & has the basic needs for cooking & dining. The fire place was a necessity to have! The location is perfect if you are looking for family friendly activities in Boone & Banner Elk areas. However, having used only half of the Chalet for an entire week & still paying full price, I'm dissappointed with our experience.
