About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Large house on 180 acres of beautiful mountain view lands

St. Francis House has some simple and unique features that some groups love: large gathering rooms for lively discussions or group activities, a fully equipped kitchen where groups can chose to prepare a home-cooked meal, a ranch-style house with some old-timey country charm, and separate accommodations upstairs and down. Nestled on the beautifully landscaped Center property, it’s an easy walk to the trails and other Center features. The house can sleep 13 on two levels, with each of the five bedrooms sharing two or three twin beds. The rooms are a little rustic, but that just adds to the experience and charm.

We stayed here for a soccer tourney at Pepsi soccer complex. We brought black stones and cooked breakfast and supper. This place was awesome for a large group. The only weird thing is all the single beds but that was clearly put on the advert. The two bathrooms are the only issue with this property but again clearly advertised.

When we travel it’s for big car audio shows! This location was perfect to say the least . We had more than adequate room for 13 adults ..lots of parking for those with trailers ! There’s a large outdoor pavilion for handing out / cooking out ! We will definitely be trying to rent this one again next year !

The property was really nice and had a lot of amenities for us to use! The campfire nearby was convenient and great for a late night hangout. The beds are really nice, the kitchen was well-stocked with equipment, and everything was cozy and clean. Definitely would book again in the future!

We had an amazing stay, it was everything our group needed in a place to stay. They were easy to work with, communication was good all the way through the process. We would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay... several of the group were able to go hike in the area... was a great place for our group to gather and hang out.

It was a perfect place to stay. We were spending most of the time at my brother's house in Hickory, but it was great to come back at the end of the day to a comfortable place to sleep, eat breakfast, and take morning walks. The grounds are lovely, and for us with little ones, it was nice to have a place where the kids could roam about without us worrying about moving everything or them breaking anything. The kitchen was well stocked, we used the laundry and it worked great, and the supplies were plentiful. The managers were super helpful, and we would definitely stay again.

This was a very peaceful place to stay and met our needs very well. Hospitality was outstanding and communication was very good. One thing to note, it is only TWIN beds in each room. We didn’t realize that, but it was fine! (I should’ve read the description better. Lol) I would totally stay here again.

Several of my friends and I went up to the Mountains for a couple of days and this place was perfect! It's quiet and out of the way but not far from groceries and food. None of us are married so having lots of beds and bedroom options was great. Check-in was super easy and we loved not having to rush out in the morning. We cooked breakfast and just chilled until we were ready to head out. Smores at the fire pit was a bonus! Kris was quick to respond to any questions I had before we showed up. We are hoping to stay there again sometime and bring more of out life group with us. :)
