Great place for families

We loved the house. It was as advertised. Lots of space for people to be all together or split up and do their own things. We had a shower head that sprung a leak and it was fixed promptly. Communication with property owners was quick and responsive.

Very relaxing place

This was the more relaxing VRBO property we have stayed at. It is in a great location, close to stores, restaurants, wineries but overall private, being at the end of an access road. We loved the layout and I brushed up on my game of pool. Very enjoyable was the large deck on the second floor. Great for relaxing, sipping on coffee or enjoying a great wine.

Great getaway!

It was a brief stay, but a perfect bonding weekend for our family. Busy lives and young kids make it tough to stay connected. This little weekend retreat was the ticket! Plenty to do even in adverse weather and plenty of space to do it in! Thanks for it all!

Really nice cabin

Had a great time. It snowed the night we arrived and the yard was great for sledding. If you come up during ice or snow, be prepared for icy roads as the last 5 miles are interesting. Owner was great to work with.

Beautiful home!

We loved staying here! It was the most well stocked home we have stayed in. The owners have put thought into the tiny details with things you sometimes forget to bring. Parking is tricky but the owners can give advice on parking. We had 7 cars parked at one time. Use the turnaround and back up the last part of the driveway. That makes it a lot better for when you go to leave.

Fantastic Cabin

Our family of 7 stayed at Sweet Escape and so enjoyed the cabin. Lisa was great to work with and so accommodating. Due to Hurricane Florence, our plans needed to be changed and she graciously rearranged our travel dates! Not only that, she left smores for us to enjoy by the firepit. HOW WONDERFUL!! The cabin was roomy, VERY clean, kitchen well stocked, enjoyed the pool table, and close to town. Overall a beautiful place. THANK YOU SO MUCH LISA!!!

Great h

Except that the TV was a bit hard to work with not much to see channels etc. second is the parking max 2 cars can go cause of steep upward hill and lucky I had men who love to swirl twist cars ! Also when I parked my car in the garage in the morning it had white stuff on it got scared thinking some kind of leak had to wipe n take it to car wash first thing

Parking Quandary

Listing is deceptive about the # of cars that can be parked w/o turn-around problems. Spent way to much time "arranging" cars to avoid backing down the steep driveway. Wintertime there must be horrible to negotiate.

Mountain getaway

As is written in the property description, the driveway up to the property is very steep, curves, and is long. We were in a pickup truck and parking so that we could get back out was difficult- you would not want to back down the driveway! The upper level master bedroom needs a new mattress. The king bed on the main level was much more comfortable. There were ants in the master bath. Kitchen is well stocked with just about anything you need to cook and serve meals. The neighborhood is quiet and the deck is nice.

Great location and nice house. Perfect for family with a lot of space for spreading out. Neighbor's dogs did bark all day and all night. Not a problem for me since I wear ear plugs at night but just be aware. Other than that, it was a great stay.
