Charming house

Booked this property a year in advance for a dance competition. Property was perfectly decorated and clean. All the added touches like coffee pods, bottled water, soap and games were a big plus! Our only complaint our the beds. They squeak every time you move but this is no fault of the owner. There are mattress proctors on them that causes the noise. Would definitely book here again.

All Star Weekend

Our plans landed us here for the NASCAR All Star races in North Wilkesboro. The area was conveniently located for us and was a great area. I love this part of the state, it’s beautiful. The house was great, clean, and had everything we needed and more. Plenty of places to eat or get whatever we wanted very close to the house, some walking distance. Beds were comfortable and again everything was very clean. Host was very accommodating, check-in and out was a breeze and communication was very good. We hope to stay here again someday, highly recommend to anyone. Thank you again for everything!!

New puppy trip

We needed a one night stay, so we could pick up our new puppy the next day. Kim's place was perfect! Such a lovely and charming house. Plenty of space, and had all the comforts on hand. It's in a safe, quiet neighborhood, and it's very clean. If we're ever up this way again, we won't hesitate to stay here! Thank you, Kim!

Perfect Home For Anyone

We enjoyed our time. Plenty of space and close to a really cool little coffee shop down the street. Kid friendly with games and toys and a lot of room to run around in the backyard for epic hide and seek! Internet is wicked fast. Grocery store within walking distance.
