Setting
Lovely home which we enjoyed staying in during our visit to Brevard, NC. Beautiful scenery looking over at the mountains from the large window in the living room. Relaxed and read sitting in front of the view. My one complaint is there are pillows in the chairs and many pillows on the bed. Hard to find a place for the pillows at bedtime.
