Fantastic High School Reunion

Two of my lifelong friends and one college buddy reunited for a long weekend. We all love the mountains and this place was perfect! The host was very accessible and responsive. One day while leaving out for town a tree had fallen across the road blocking our exit. I contacted the host, they made a few calls, and the tree was cleared within hours! Check in was seamless and the property was very clean. Great game room in the basement where we enjoyed several nights of competitive bumper pool! What a blast! Would defiantly recommend this property. Also, close to the town of Boone.
