Great Accommodations!!

We have stayed in numerous cabins over the years and this one was the most well stocked and one of the cleanest we have ever stayed in. We did have a problem with one of the toilets, but Greg was in it and took care of it for us. It was a great location between Wilkesboro and Boone. Beautiful deck overlooking the mountains. We would stay here again without question.

Beautiful Stay In The Mountains

Wonderful cabin with a view to die for. We could have spent the whole weekend sitting on the deck but we would have missed the beautiful interior with any amenity you could ask for, comfortable bed and fully stocked kitchen. Thank you to the owners for making their home available for others to enjoy. Hopefully, we can visit again.

Second time staying here that’s how much we enjoyed the cabin and our stay, the view is breathtaking, location is good close to bigger towns around. The communication with the management is great, you are not going to have an issue at all, cabin spotless clean and fully furnished and kitchen fully equipped as well, great for families stays. Could not recommend this property enough is great 10 out of 10 for everything.
