Great as always!

This is our third time staying here for our family holiday break, and it was great as always! The view is incredible, and it was a cozy spot for our family which is spread across three states to meet together and celebrate while also having our own space. Looking forward to staying here again!

Great Place for Family Holiday Stay

My family has rented this place twice now for our holiday reunion and it has been perfect. A little out of the way, but the space and view is worth it. We were able to spread out to our own rooms, but come together for dinner and games. We had our Christmas morning in front of the gorgeous view. We cooked our holiday dinner here and enjoyed our time as a family. Looking forward to renting this place again in the future.

Bigger than you’d think!

My family gathered here for Thanksgiving week, and fully expected the amazing views (which were even more amazing at sunrise!) but did not expect such spacious indoor areas. All the rooms / bathrooms / closets / kitchen are far larger than they seem from photos. We had a toddler and a 5yo running around, toys everywhere, and did not feel crowded at all. This was a great place for our holiday trip.

Friends weekend at the house. Beautiful clean home with quality furnishings. Crazy weather weekend, ranging from panoramic views to no visibility due to ice and fog! But didn’t matter, we loved this place and hope to return!

2022 Mountain Golf Trip

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Wonderful, impeccably furnished home with an unbeatable, breath-taking view. It's the first time that I have ever "looked down" to watch birds soar.

Beautiful location

Disappointed with response from owner about the Direct TV service. We were celebrating sister’s 75th Birthday who is a BIG football fan and the Direct TV service was not available. You website list that it is provided. These services should be checked before you offer this property to another guest.

Amazing house and much cleaner, newer and nicer than the others we’ve rented in the area when visiting family. This was overkill for me as a solo traveler but I couldn’t pass up the view!

Wow! What a view!

We were in Galax for a family reunion and wanted a Mountain View and boy did we get it!! The house was better than expected. One of the best kitchens we’ve ever stayed in, plenty of bedding and towels, and wine to welcome us! We would definitely stay here again.

What a view

Our family enjoyed our stay at This vacation home. It is in a beautiful setting! Anything you could need, in the way of towels, t.p., and cooking needs, including spices. Plenty of wildlife to watch@ dusk. Be aware, it is off the Blue Ridge Parkway. It may be closed partially, due to weather. The screened in porch would be divine in warm weather.

A beautiful, relaxing location with a couple minor issues

We stayed at this property in November 2021 with a group of 10 and were overall very happy with the experience; the location was beautiful and the home was extremely well-stocked. Although the gravel side-roads were a bit tricky to navigate in the dark (and Google map directions were hit or miss), the peaceful relaxing view more than made up for that. The only complaint from our stay was that there is very large close-up Rolling Stones artwork in the living room and downstairs that are not shown in the listing photos - if you're a big fan this may be perfect for you but it was a bit uncomfortable for our group and was disruptive to some of the indoor photos. Apart from the artwork and a couple minor cleaning issues this mountain house was a lot of fun!

Hidden gem

This was the best rental we have had. The view was spectacular, the house was clean and beautiful. It felt like we were coming home at the end of each day. The kitchen was stocked with any kind of pot, pan, or utensil you could need. My only suggestion would be a sign at the top of the driveway pointing which way to go. We all took the wrong turn and had to turn around and go the other way. Toddlers would need constant supervision while outside.

Awesome vacation

Your home was wonderful. We loved the view especially of Pilot Mountain and the rounded tops of the blue ridges. The porches were especially nice and there was room for the grandsons to play outside. Your kitchen was well stocked and we definitely recommend your vacation home.
