Wonderful Christmas Getaway
Our extended family of 9 (ranging in age from 8 weeks to 65 years) went to celebrate Christmas and had a wonderful time. The house's views were even better than the listing. There was plenty of space for everyone and it was very close to attractions like ziplining, Chimney Rock, and of course the Lake.
The kitchen was well-appointed, and it was especially helpful that the property had a pack and play with a bassinet available so we didn't have to lug ours along.
Some things to be aware of (didn't take away from our visit, but are good to know!)
-The outdoor steps on the deck were very steep and outdoor lighting was a little dim. Definitely need to use care when going up or down after dark.
-there is a gate on the deck steps but our smaller dog (35 lbs) was able to squeeze right through it, meaning he could just roam freely whenever he wanted without close supervision
-the AC/heat was locked, so could not be self-adjusted. When we asked the host they said it could be controlled remotely by then if we requested, and when the connection did not work they reached out to ensure we could find the keys and adjust it if we needed to. We ended up leaving it alone, but the temperature differential throughout the house was pretty dramatic. If you must have a specific temperature to be comfortable, it's good to know.
Overall, it was a fantastic property that suited our needs, and the deck with the views was an added bonus. We had a great time and would definitely stay again!
