The location was perfect being centrally located to Boone and Blowing Rock. The views were on point and we had everything we needed and more for a fun family weekend stay. This was great for all ages from 16-70. Everyone had a great time. We would definitely stay here again.

On arrival we reported to the office that there was significant work in progress in the kitchen (cabinet doors & drawers removed, tools on countertop, etc.). Monica was very responsive, immediately sent Mike (maintenance), thankfully we had not begin to unpack as we were moved to another unit. Very happy with quick response, our ‘vacation start time’ was delayed so it would have been nice if mgmt offered a late departure to make up for the delayed check in. Also, very few dumpster locations, none of which were remotely convenient to our unit without significant driving distance, so we took our trash with us for several miles until we had a travel rest stop. Also we suggest fewer, more consolidated emails with instructions & information; the multiple emails, texts, etc were a little overwhelming when trying to find particular instruction (such as dumpster location map, etc). Love the thoroughness, but consolidations would be very helpful. Overall we had a great time even with lousy rainy weather, and we appreciated Monica’s & Mike’s quick and effective response.

Excellent Property- Very Clean. 100% as listed.
Spent Christmas/New Years week. 9 of us ranging in age from 3 to 82. Very comfortable. Well equiped. We would definately condiser returning. Community has nice features- Indoor pool, hot tub and multiple workout facilities. Summer pool was closed for the season but looked spectacular. Good location- central to Boone. Plenty of area attractions and things to do for the whole family. 5*s from us.

Great Vacation Location for Horse Show
We needed a close spot for the Blowing Rock Charity Horse Show. This was a great location and very convenient with a drive time of approximately 23 minutes. The house offered us a relaxing place to unwind where we could spread out and enjoy the various amenities - like the game room, the balconies and community. The kitchen was very well stocked, which made it easy to bring our own food and prepare meals.
