Stunning views. Peaceful.
We had so much space- perfect for two families with four adults and five total kids. Thankyou for being dog friendly! The hot tub and firepit were a big hit. We all came for Autumn in Oz. Perfect distance from everything.

Beautiful Views, Family Fun
Our families rented this place looking somewhere to fit two families with five children a dog, and please us all. The place worked out amazingly for us and our dog too. Place had a game room for the kids to unwind after a day out exploring and hiking places near by…. Boone, Banner Elk, Blue Ridge Parkway and Grandfather Mountain. The views were spectacular and the deck over looking the mountains and valley was a great way to spend mornings and evenings relaxing. This was all we were hoping it would be and more. Would definitely returns. A note though the driveway is definitely steep but they make sure you are aware before you arrive.

Family winter getaway!
We loved our experience staying here for a short getaway from the Florida heat. The house is amazing and large enough for multiple people with plenty of outdoor space. The house had everything we could ask for and we would love to come back and stay again in the future.

Wonderful, relaxing Getaway
Just what we needed. A cozy cabin to relax in for 5 days. The dogs loved the fenced-in yard - a bonus for us too! We had everything we needed. Lots of opportunity to explore in the area from Mast General Store to the Watauga River!

Beautiful views!
Overall the house is beautiful, as are the views! Kitchen definitely needs some work in term of supplies and cleanliness. We really enjoyed the porch and the outdoor fireplace. The privacy was wonderful!

Excellent Mountain Weekend Getaway
The staff was incredibly supportive and kind. We stayed here to trout fish in the area, and caught lots of fish. The property was exactly what we wanted and expected. Thanks all.

Mountain escape
Property was beautiful and well kept. We enjoyed sitting outside overall the view of the mountains and a night fire inside the cabin. Nice weekend retreat

Family Ski Vacation
This property was nice and had a great view but I wish I had known that the entrance is not on the main level with the kitchen so I we had to carry our groceries and coolers upstairs to the main level and any time I needed to let my dog out I had to use the stairs which is difficult for me - the other thing I did not like was the incredibly steep driveway, straight up and then an extremely sharp turn straight up again then another extremely sharp turn and straight up again - that was the hardest part of driving the entire trip with the snow and ice---the pictures need updating because the orange sofa is not there---it has been replaced with 2 non-matching grey sofas and the open concept living room and kitchen is much tighter than the picture shows---would have been nice to have a TV in the living room that was larger than 32 inches---the bedrooms and bathrooms were very nice!!! All in all, we had a nice vacation!

Awesome View
The view is everything the advertisement promises. All home systems in good working order. Gravel section of entry drive needs paving or at least leveling.

Great Weekend Stay
The process was very easy and everyone was super friendly. The property was beautiful and not too far from Boone. You really can’t beat the view on the deck in the morning or the evening.

Best place yet!
This is the best place I have ever stayed at through Home Away. The house and property were awesome and just like the pictures. We had an awesome stay with friends and family. There is only one thing I would update and that's the shower curtain in the master bath on the main level of the house.

Views beautiful, hot tub relaxing, location fine (not a fancy neighborhood but close to Boone and Blowing Rock). Relaxing girls weekend! The driveway was intense to get up.

Very well maintained cabin. Has everything you need for a great getaway. We loved it
Cabin has everything and anything you need for a great stay. Our family loved our stay here. The only scary thing was driving up to get to the cabin, we are from Florida and are not use to this.
