Absolutely LOVED this property! Excellent location, and you cannot beat the view!
They’re not joking about needing 4WD. I do not suggest coming to the house for the first time in the dark - you may fall off the mountain.
Two notes:
1. Spend some time in the kitchen before you have to cook, and make sure you open ALL the drawers ALL THE WAY. Steak knives are wayyyy in the back of a random drawer - ha!
2. Put your heaviest sleeper in the basement bedroom. You hear every single step that happens above you.

My family and friends stayed for the week and had a good time. House was clean and comfortable and nice view to wake up to in the morning. Driveway might be a little scary if you are in a car or in snowy weather I doubt a car would make it in snow, but that kinda is to be expected. SUV had no issue getting up the hill.

We stayed with a few friends and all had an amazing time at this cabin. We were each able to enjoy each other's company and also have our own separate floors for bedrooms and bathrooms.

The view from the living room glass doors is totally memorable. The cabin was very clean and management very responsive. The kitchen faucet needs attention immediately.
overall the stay was great and would rent again.

Overall, the property was clean and well kept. The driveway is pretty steep, it is fully paved and very manageable with good weather. We had a mid-sized SUV and it did not have any issues, there are 2 sharp turns on the driveway. The cabin was clean and well kept on the outside. The inside was mostly clean, upon arrival we found some dust bunnies in the corners, one of the blankets was left out and not folded, we found some dirt around the corner of the floors, and the bathroom shower tiles could have used a better cleaning on them. You could tell the cabin was cleaned by hitting the high points for a quick rental turn around. Other than that, everything else was in good order. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, and utensils, there was a small charcoal grill and a larger sized gas grill onsite. The refrigerator was clean, the dishwasher worked well, and the stove looked fairly new. The only complaint here was the oven door is tricky to operate until you get used to it. The door it is split into two sections where you can open a small door, or you can open the full door for oven use. Upstairs in the loft you found the pool table, the shuffleboard table, there was also a closet that had many different games and puzzles. We had great use of the pool table and games during our stay. The AC worked great in the cabin and the hot tub was very relaxing. The back deck has a great side view of Grandfather Mountain. I would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous house to spend a little vacation time in. Not sure how you get people to ever leave. Very lovely place and it was a great place to celebrate my son’s graduation from App State in nearby Boone.

The cabin is absolutely gorgeous and the views of grandfather mountain are unparalleled! Standing on the middle of the deck you have a full view of the side of grandfather’s face! The driveway is definitely steep but it is partially paved which helps! The beds need new mattresses for sure but they were fine for a couple nights. Cabin was very clean and well maintained. We will definitely stay again!

Great location and communication
We really enjoyed our stay at John’s cabin. It has a great setup with lots of space and an ideal location near Boone and Banner Elk.
I don’t think I’ve seen brighter stars looking up at the sky while soaking in the hot tub.
It’s a great cabin for sure and John was great to communicate with.
The only improvement I could recommend would be upgraded mattresses for a better nights sleep, but great cabin overall.

The views are amazing! The house is gorgeous and the open floor plan is the best! The kitchen is well equipped as well.
The driveway is hard to get up and scary.
Housekeeping definitely could have done a better job. The bathrooms were clean but there wasn't a lot of attention paid to the other areas of the house (kitchen and dinning especially)
Still, all in all the house was AMAZING!

Awesome cabin, but steep drive way
We loved the cabin. The overlook was amazing. The only negative review I can give(which I don't think it is a negative, I just think you need to be prepared) is that the driveway is pretty steep. I do recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle to make it a little easier to get up the driveway. We had a great time!

The view was amazing. Home was nice. Master shower was full of mold and disgusting. Ran out of hand soap, toilet paper and towels. Disappointing.

Great place to stay
We had an excellent stay at this beautiful and cozy home. It was a wonderful place to stay once we were able to get up the driveway, which was a challenge. Definitely recommend using a 4 wheel drive vehicle (even in the summer months) otherwise you may not make it up the driveway!

Awesome Spring Break!
Loved this property. Awesome view and the cabin was very clean with space to hang out, comfortable. During our stay the weather was a bit colder than I was expecting but the fireplace was great to warm up to after hiking etc. Lots to do in the area. This cabin is super close to Otter Falls and Hawksnest ziplining which everyone loved. The only issue was the hot tub which had a leak. We were told to fill it with the hose but that was not overly practical and took a while to heat with the cold water.

Wonderfully outfitted. Great location.

Our vacation started with 6 inches of snow coming down and it was so beautiful. The driveway to get up to the house is very very steep so if you don't have a 4 wheel drive vehicle its probably not accessible if there has been snow. While they were good about coming in ploughing, we were not able to actually leave the house next day. It was okay though, we packed plenty of food and used the pool table and hot tub. Other than a few wear and tear issues, and some drainage problems, the house is really great and the views are MAGICAL. Bring your own pillows! We had a great snow vacay!

99.99% Best House We've Ever Stayed
Besides a few minor quirks about the house (one thermostat, broken sink & garbage disposal, dirty master shower) this house was perfect for what we needed to enjoy a short vacation in the high country.

Our families had a wonderful time together...3 days of snow, cozy fireplace, made wonderful memories.
