Loved being right on the river. The swing was a great place to sit and listen and be at peace. Would suggest repairing the screens on the windows and doors, as it would be a huge draw to be able to have those open when the weather is nice without fear of bugs. Overall, though, it was a fabulous retreat and I would definitely consider coming back again.
Entire place should be rebuilt and clean.Bathroom unacceptable.If you look at the back yard, there is a lot of trash.No laundry, place is too tight. Only internet access is good.Living room furniture is good,
This place was had everything we needed. We visited Blowing Rock, Boone and Grandfather Mtn and it was a short drive to all. We enjoyed a fire in the outdoor fire pit while listening to the river.
Les points forts : Communication, emplacement, exactitude de lâannonce
The location was great and easy to access. The river is lovely and we enjoyed walking down the rocky bank. In hindsight, the house is catering to skiers, because there is no air conditioning. That really should be disclosed. I would also suggest updating the bath linens, and invest in a frying pan. There were ants in the kitchen, a common problem we all have, but just wanted you to be aware. The porch and outdoor seating were extremely dirty, and not able to be used.
Beautiful little place for the family to get away. Kids loved the creek, riding the scooters and the swing. Nice back porch with rocking chairs to just enjoy the view. Would definitely stay here again in the future! Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to make memories and just enjoy each other!!
The cabin is tucked away in nice neighborhood, right off 105 - very convenient to Sugar Mountain and Boone. We wish we could have been there more than one night!
It's older and it's small, but we had a great time there. Grandkids loved the river and the swing over the water. They chose that over the community pool! The mattresses were great, very important for us grandparents!
Wonderful stay just a little farther from sugar mountain and beech mountain than I would like overall amazing stay with an amazing view of the river. House is fully furnished with everything needed.
The only thing there was some old used doors at the back of the house propped up at a tree that wasn't very nice for the view of the river. That's all. Every thing was very nice and we would stay there again.
Cozy cabin. Great location. Loved the river views. Only cons were that the coffee maker was missing the insert where the coffee goes, so we couldn't make coffee. And the hot water doesn't last very long. Otherwise, very cute and convenient. The fire place made the entire cabin warm and was a great addition. Would stay again.
Older home, very small kitchen, nice fireplace and having the stream behind the house was relaxing.
Easy drive to Boone, and beds were comfortable.
Shortfall was lack of TV stations as we wanted to watch some College Football on Saturday and NFL on Sunday. Could not log into our streaming service as the Roku required a PIN which had not been set up.
I had to ask the property manager for the access code, which is typically provided proactively by other managers. The property was also not cleaned, as evidenced by the dirty bathroom, one of the beds not being changed, and the smelly food in the refrigerator.
I took my son and his friends to Banner Elk for a birthday celebration. My son absolutely loved the cabin and said he could live there. It was cute and cozy, yet slept out party comfortably. We loved the river running behind the property. We would definitely stay again!
I found this property 15 years ago and instantly fell in love. The owner and I became great friends. I tried for years to buy it from her and finally was able to purchase this little piece of heaven 2 years ago. I sincerely hope you make lasting memories here with your family like I have with mine.
