Slip away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life with a rejuvenating stay at a modern mountain retreat. You'll be secluded in a woodland area of the quiet Sleepy Hollow community just 200 yards from the Watauga River without sacrificing proximity to attractions - Grandfather Vineyard & Winery is less than a mile away and accessible through the neighborhood on foot. Truly an all-season getaway, the home is less than four miles to the Profile Trail entrance and Otter Falls Trail and about six miles to Sugar Mountain Resort for skiing or mountain biking.

This three-bedroom house was recently updated and styled with tasteful decor and comfortable furnishings. On chilly evenings, cozy up by the gas fireplace in the open living area. Downstairs, you'll find a bonus electric fireplace. If your family is fond of friendly competition, get ready for non-stop entertainment in the game room with the combination miniature pool, air hockey, foosball, checkers, and chess table.

Families will love that there's an open field for playing just down a hill behind the house, and a Pack 'N Play is provided for the comfort of the youngest guests.

Relax on one of the covered decks with your favorite beverage and admire the mountain view or watch the stars twinkle.

Mountain getaway

My family and I enjoyed the house very much. In a great location and close to the college campus and not far from some waterfalls and mountains. Very clean when we got there and all of the beds and couches were comfy. The only issue I had was that it was hard to get in touch with the property manager. The outside trash can was full of trash when we go there and there was a broken ceiling fan in one of the rooms. Tried to let the property manger know through the VRBO app, text message, and on their website but I have no idea if I was talking to an actual person or an AI. I would suggest turning the “game room” into another bed room or at least put a pull out couch in there so you could have more guests. Definitely worth the stay and would love to come back!

Nice location

Overall impression was fine to good. The lower level was great and all beds were comfortable. The outdoor furniture on the patio had a broken chair and there were only 3 chairs by the fire ring and 2 had broken arms. Also there were only 5 bath towels for a home that is supposed to sleep 6. The kitchen was nicely appointed. Bring along extra trash bags, dishwasher detergent and paper towels as they only provide the bare basics (1 of each)

A good location

Some easy updates are needed to damaged furniture in living room and outdoor spaces. The updated lower level is lovely. The bedrooms were nice

Cozy home

We loved the king bed, the decor is so pretty, we enjoyed the game room, one thing missing was a hairdryer in the bathroom and the tv upstairs wasn’t working. But overall it was clean and cozy
