Perfect Summer Getaway
We really enjoyed staying at this property. It was a beautiful home with a fenced in backyard perfect for kids or a pet to run around in. It was a 2 minute drive to Crystal Mountain if you enjoy golfing or skiing. It also has 2 nice bathrooms and one has a bathtub that is nice to have with kids. It is in a beautiful location easy to access but surrounded by trees and feels very private. We will definitely be back!

Best option around Crystal Mountain
We really enjoyed our stay. The property is a nicely-designed home - spacious, pristine condition and well equipped.
The hosts were extremely attentive and made the whole process easy.
We’ve stayed at a number of condos at Crystal Mountain . , . This place is head-and-shoulders above those options.
