The floors squeak very badly and can be very annoying. The house needs some updating (Christmas decorations were still up outside). ##### Sarah G.

Thoroughly enjoyed Great Escape. House is very comfortable....beds are firm which we loved. Great view although we would have loved if some of trees had been “limbed”. Perfect daily sunsets. STOCKED kitchen which was nice. We had to clean trash up several mornings as raccoons and bears ( we watched him) got into cans. ...even tho we secured with large rocks! Perfect location. Super rental home. ##### Sara B.

The first thing to notice when walking in are the amazing views! You can even see the lights at the slopes at night. It’s such a cozy home with everything you can possibly need. The play room above the detached car port is very cute. If you’re coming from Florida or any place where you don’t have steep hills or mountains be mentally prepared for the mountainous winding roads. I do recommend an AWF/RWD car in any season. ##### Anielka C.

House was clean and very comfortable. Ample parking for our 3 vehicles. Would be difficult to access in winter weather without 4WD. Great views! Wish we had more time there. A Kuerig with complimentary k cups is always appreciated, but not present. They did have a coffee maker though with no coffee. Trash was an issue - we had to remove and we couldn’t find any extra large trash bags. I would definitely rent again! ##### Nicole B.

First, the trash cans to place the trash has been removed from the home. We are yet to find a place to put our trash and unfortunately had to bring it back home which was a 2 hour drive...UGH! Second, we went to grill hamburgers and the grill was gross and no gas. The house itself and views were awesome! The morning we left, we woke to snow on the ground! It was breathtaking!!! ##### Angela D.

We chose this house for its location, view, level entry, and pet friendliness. From grandma to the teenager, there was space for everyone (8 people total). Our adventures included Sugar Mtn, App Ski Mtn, Grandfather Vineyards, Blowing Rock, and dinners at Casa Rustica and Woodlands-all of which were very accessible from this house. If only the Gamekeeper next door had been open during our stay! Highly recommend ordering firewood from the rental company. Kitchen was adequately stocked with appliances, pots, pans, etc. (BYO spices & paper products). Beds were comfortable and the teen loved the loft! We saw lots of deer and the sunsets were amazing! Glad we didn’t get too much snow/ice, though, because the drive in/out could have been tricky. We did have a 4WD! We hope to stay in the Great Escape again! ##### Diane R.
