It has all the things I look for when I travel: comfortable bed and linens, communicative hosts, a (very) well stocked kitchen, and thoughtfully appointed accommodations throughout. The house is cozy and clearly well loved. I especially appreciate the art, the privacy every guest is afforded by the setup, the roominess (so big!) and the incredibly beautiful creek below the house. Of all the places I’ve stayed in the area (my son goes to college locally), this is my favorite. I’ll be back!” This property is managed by a North Carolina Real Estate Firm.

The setting high in the mountains provided a beautiful view of the surrounding forest of hardwood trees. At this time of the year they provided a beautiful array of colors. Add the creek that runs below the home giving you the sound of moving water, you instantly relax. The home had everything you would want in a well appointed kitchen in order to cook up your favorite meal. We enjoyed the wood burning fireplace especially on the cooler nights. the master bedroom and on-suite are on the first floor making it easy for more mature renters. The home is pet friendly and has a grassy area out front for your furry buddy to use. The rental company was very easy to work with, providing us with all the information we needed. We would definitely want to rent this home again! ##### Manina R.
