Everything was new and clean. The kitchen is well equipped, and we enjoyed sitting on the deck. Comfortable beds and furniture. Really quiet and peaceful. It’s a pretty interesting drive up there from Banner Elk. It is located on a gravel road, but that was not a problem. We look forward to returning. ##### Maria V. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025
