This house was perfect for 10 adults. Plenty of room to spread out. All 5 of the adult children hung out downstairs and they had plenty if beds. The house was appointed with everything needed to make the stay comfortable including a well equipped kitchen. We especially enjoyed the fire pit. The only negative is it’s about 20-25 minutes from any restaurants, stores or activities. If you don’t mind being a bit off the beaten path and winding roads, this house is perfect.

Property was located in a beautiful setting in Banner Elk NC, with the wrap around decks giving great views of the mountains. Kitchen was perfect, and beds super comfortable. Bathrooms were spotless. I would rent here again.

Family came down from Ohio to Celebrate Daughter’s graduation from App State. We had plenty of room for 11 people. House was very well stocked with Kitchen utensils and cook where. Anything you needed was there. I forgot my Crock pot and was going to go buy one, they had it at the cabin. I would suggest to bring some TP with you and Paper towels, and Trash bags. We used the indoor fire place to take off the chill, and we loved sitting around the outdoor fire pit as well. Great place to stay!!

Pictures do not do this place justice. The house has plenty of room to spread out and the rooms downstairs give the kiddos plenty of their space so we could have adult time upstairs. The house was very clean, however two of the fitted sheets on two of the beds had large stains on them. We spoke with the team that manages the property and they swiftly took care of the issue. This property is 5*

We rented this house for 10 of us to have a long girls weekend. The house was set up perfectly with lots of room. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked which worked well for us as we like to cook in most nights. The house may feel remote but it was an easy drive to banner elk and other locations. We loved Grandfather Vineyard for those looking for a day outing.
