We absolutely loved our stay. Everything was perfect and just as described. The hosts provided everything we needed and more. What a wonderful experience all around. We look forward to going back. Highly recommended!
Pictures don't do the house and the amenities justice. House is spacious and very well stocked. Property is beautiful and was great to have a place for the kids to play and adults to relax. Everything was well marked and directions were easy to understand to navigate the home, check in and check out. Would highly recommend staying here! We will definitely be keeping it on our list for next time we're in the area!
The home has literally everything we needed! It's decorated tastefully, beds were super comfy, and the entire house was immaculate! The outdoor are was perfect and kept the kids busy and active for hours. The host was accommodating and responsive. We loved all the special touches like tons of towels, pantry supplies, coffee bar, flameless candles and a book with great ideas. Loved it!
We have fallen in love with this place!!! This is our second stay in 6 months, and we are already looking forward to returning again!!
The location cannot be beat and allows you to explore the nearby towns of Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, and Boone easily. However, you really don't have to go anywhere because this house has everything you need for a perfect relaxing get-away. The hosts are great - very helpful and continue to make improvements! We will be back!! 💗
fantastic host period
We loved our stay at this mountain home. The location is perfectly situated between Banner Elk and Boone, and while you aren't too far away from anything, you feel like you have your own personal oasis far from everything when you're at the house. The owners have literally thought of everything- by far, the most well stocked home I've ever stayed in and beautifully renovated too! The hot tub, zip line, and forest of lights were all just added bonuses! Plus, we were able to bring our dog, who also loved it! Can not wait to return!!!

About the host
Hosted by Kris and Ashley Meyerhoffer
My name is Ashley, raised in Valle Crucis, I know a lot about the area. This was my father's House. My kids, ages 6, 8, 10. They have grown up coming to this home and have created lots of memories here. This house is where I feel most at home. It brings me a lot of peace and tranquility when I am there. My favorite thing to do is walk down to the firepit area, close my eyes and take a deep breath. Try it, it is so cleansing!
Why they chose this property
Valle Crucis has so many festivals, Mast Store, The Candy barrel, Ice cream shop, and the Valle Crucis park all just minutes away. It's also relaxing to do nothing at all and just chill at home. When we visit, we really enjoy the serenity of just being at home.
What makes this property unique
Comfortable and Relaxing. Enough to do at the property or close enough to Boone or Banner Elk.
