The property itself was wonderful. Great location. Dealing with the property management company was a bit of a challenge. Our access code didn’t work upon arrival and we had no cell service at the cabin. The Wi-Fi was down prior to our arrival. We were told a repairman would be out the day after we arrived. The problem was that we were telephoned by the management company (with no prior notice) and told that we had to be at the property to allow the repair person access. We were in town and had to leave and go back. This was very frustrating and we didn’t feel it was our responsibility. Someone from the management company should have handled it. Other than those 2 issues, our stay was wonderful.

We had an amazing time at this lovely cabin. The cabin was very clean and well equipped. We were pleasantly surprised that there even was an air fryer! :) Hot tub worked great once we figured out how to operate it. Blowing Rock is a cute town that’s minutes away. Also the stunning Grandfather Mountain and Mile High Swinging bridge are just a 20 minute drive from the cabin. Overall a great experience.

Very nice and secluded property. Doors in Master are glass and do not have blinds so it is very bright in there in the morning, would be nice if there was a way to cover them. Ice maker does not work. Hot tub did not look like it has been treated. Kitchen not stocked well but that was not an issue for us since we only stayed 2 nights, but if staying for a week, there is not a lot to cook with.

We loved the location. Centrally located. My only complaint would be that the towels were so limited. Other than that it was a wonderful time. The outside fire pit was a nice addition. Enjoyed the fireplace every day. Would love to go back.

Absolutely loved this cabin! So big and cozy:) was absolutely wonderful

Our family of five and one very tiny dog enjoyed ourselves in this property. Although it sits within a neighborhood of sorts, you might not know it once you're there. There is no direct view of any neighbor even though you pass the homes while driving in. It was beautifully quiet with the only sounds being that of mountain winds and the burble of the creek below. The view is mainly of the surrounding trees and foliage which did not disappoint. We enjoyed the upstairs living space which had a high quality 4K TV and satellite service if you wanted to catch a show. We made good use of the fireplace and enjoyed the fact that you could slightly rearrange the living room and dining room chairs for different activities. We did a lot of family games and a few puzzles. The hot tub was ready to go and easy to get into. We switches our phones to "WIFI calling" and were able to use all aspect of our mobile device. There's lots of deck space, a firepit, and a cool private overlook that sits ~100 ft away from the house; perfect to listen to the creek with a glass of wine. The decks were a bit too wet to enjoy during our stay but 2 of the decks are covered if you don't mind the winter air. The incoming roads are gravel but well maintained and mostly flat. The driveway is a tad steep but our 4WD had zero issues. I think our 2WD minivan could get there in the summer but I couldn't recommend that if there is an significant snow in the winter. That's really the case for the entire area and not something unique to this rental. We had a great time and the rental agency was easy to access and quick to answer any questions. No issues, just fun and relaxation.

Totally enjoyed the cabin/house. The hot tub was wonderful.

The cabin was beautiful and in a very scenic area. Our visit, overall, was awesome and the accommodations within the cabin were perfect. After a tumultuous couple months, a friend and I really needed a little getaway. Upon arrival, we were told our key access would work at 1 PM as we had paid for early check-in. Unfortunately, this was not the case and there's no cell phone service! Needless to say, we had to circle back to make contact with Karolina cabin rentals. We made it back only two get stuck in the driveway, as it's not very well-kept. $125 in a tow truck later! Huge bummer on top of taking 1.5 hours to enter the property. For the most part, the cabin was very clean and tidy. The bathrooms definitely could've used a little love as there was lots of hair in both showers. The kitchen was clean but the dishwasher was left for an unclaimed. Little things, but with everything going on in the world not exactly what you hope to see. I travel a ton with work and have lots of experience renting cabins both in the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains. I've rented cabins of all shapes and sizes and price points. This one, was grossly overpriced in my opinion. There is not a ton to do in Blowing Rock and I was blown away that it cost over $900 for two night stay, even during a tropical storm! My recommendation, as someone that spends upwards of 50 K a year and travel, would be to discount rates when guest are unable to take advantage of the only thing the area has to offer which would be nature. I have stayed in a very comparable cabin in the great Smoky Mountains that only cost 500 for a two night stay, so I am really surprised by the pricing in blowing rock. While everyone I spoke with was super nice, it's safe to say I won't be returning to this location. The grounds were very littered with debris and seemed as if the cleaning crew breezed through before we got there. Despite the comedy of errors our first day, or second day was very enjoyable and relaxing. I just hate I had to spend more money out of pocket to get my car towed out of an unkept driveway even after over paying to stay at a property during a tropical storm. Thank you for asking for my review and I wish you all continued success.

Had an amazing time! Cabin was perfect for us. No problems withbreservations. We will be back!!!

The cabin is located conveniently close to downtown Blowing Rock, but is very secluded. The scenery is beautiful, and the only sound you hear is the creek below. With some cleaning and maintenance to the outside, it could be better. All the decks and deck furniture were dirty. Upon arriving, our entry code didn't work. It happens. We were inside within 10 minutes. The downstairs bathroom was locked, so we called the agent on duty and were told that maintenance couldn't come out until the following day. Inconvenient, but again, we can deal with it. The ice maker in the freezer was broken and at first I thought the extra bags of ice left in the freezer were left there for our convenience until i noticed one was open. As i was putting things away, I noticed a spill and a wine cork in the bottom of the freezer. When i made coffee, I found the basket full of the last guest's coffee grounds. There were dishes in the dishwasher. The place had not been thoroughly cleaned. At all. Walking on the floor with bare feet was impossible without our feet being covered on grime. There was dirt and fingerprints on the end tables. The coffee table was dirty. Sitting on the couch, you could look under the (worn out) chairs and see leaves and other various debris. The dining room table had been neglected for so long that a magazine laying on it had stuck to it. After unpacking, I glanced down and found an empty soda can peeking out from under the dresser. There was a gas burning fireplace downstairs with no directions for use, and a wood burning one upstairs with the remnants of the previous guest's fire. The beds had been changed, (I hope), and clean linens were waiting, so I know someone at least walked into the place. I can't believe they thought it looked clean enough to not bother doing anything else. The stove was dirty, and when I pulled a baking sheet out of the drawer, it had clearly not been cleaned. Maintenance came the next afternoon, unlocked the bathroom door, showed us how to operate the fireplace, and left. When i went into the downstairs bathroom, it was a wreck. Stopped up toilet, poop to the rim. Unacceptable. We wasted another whole vacation day waiting, (again), for maintenance to unclog the toilet, THEN the cleaners to come clean the mess. All the bathrooms were full of hair. Too much to have just been missed. We were very disappointed in the place. Sad, because it has a lot of potential.

Location is secluded and gorgeous, with a short 5-7min drive to downtown Blowing Rock. Cabin was everything we were looking for. Kitchen could have been cleaned better prior to our arrival but overall we had a great experience.

If a little money was put into the house, it would be a better place to stay. A on a positive note, the AC works great! Loved all the throw blankets available. However.... As far as cleaning, try cleaning under the chairs in the living room (you can see some one else's crap under them when you come up the stairs), clean under the mini kitchen island and under the game table on the lower level as well. A broom or blower could do wonders for the dirt, webs, dead bugs etc. on the porches. The screen door needs repair. Only the half bath included a bar of soap and hand towel. The two full baths only had two bath towels and wash cloths each. Upon arrival, the downstairs bathroom was locked with the light on. Once we got the door open, we discovered a disgusting mess. When we were finally able to speak to someone about it, it took waayyyyy too much conversation to get this fixed. We were almost accused of creating the mess! This was eventually resolved, but WE, the guests, had to do some cleaning to make that bathroom useable. The water and ice on the fridge does not work. There were 2 old fashioned ice cube trays provided, but really? There is a very dangerous hump in the floor in front of the half bath, and on the way to one of the bedrooms, and the beginning of another hump in the kitchen. This is a serious trip and fall hazard! There are obvious sIgns of water issues, as well as a strong musty smell near the laundry room and the other door that had a loveseat in front of it. We brought our own wood for the fire pit due to the high price of the wood available. There were stumps around the fire pit for seating, but two are infested with ants. The gas grill needs work as well. We didn't even think about using the hot tub (even though we paid a surcharge for it) given all the other issues. No telling what we would have found. In closing, we would not return to this house as there are too many other, and better, options available.

The porches had not been cleaned, and the hot tub had trach in it. Dishes had not been taken out of the dish washes. Hair left in the upstairs shower. Ice maker would not work. Overall it was a beautiful place, and it was very quiet. We enjoyed our stay at the house.

Our experience was fantastic and I may do this once a year. Thank you gracious hosts!

This cabin was above and beyond our expectations! Very clean, very comfortable and very well appointed. We were sorry we didn't book it for a longer stay but will be looking to return soon- hopefully for fall foliage. Secluded and rustic in a luxurious way. Nothing seemed temporary or poorly thought out. If I was hard pressed to find anything that was less than ideal it would be a temperamental WiFi connection but it IS the mountains. Less screen time for all of us was actually a plus. Book it! (I may regret saying that if my future stays aren't available lol). .

Direct TV Remote in living room did not work, could only see one channel. Bedroom upstairs stayed on the cool side. But overall it was nice.

The cabin was very lovely. We were disappointed in that no one seemed to know much about how to use the cabin phone or the TV. I would stay again if there was better phone service.

We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin! The location was perfect…we loved the seclusion, as well as being in such close proximity to Blowing Rock. We plan to return in the very near future. What a wonderful, wonderful place to stay!

We over all enjoyed the stay at the cabin. The home was cozy and welcoming. We did have a few issues with the stay. The directions to get into the door were not matching the correct way to get in. There was no screen to wake up and no “*” to press. The wood that we paid $68 for to have a fire cracked horribly and was not relaxing. The chimney opening closed and filled the house with smoke and we learned that the smoke detectors do not work at all. There was dust hanging from the chairs down stairs and the ceilings up stairs. There was dirt and leaves under the furniture up stairs. The toilet paper and paper towels that were left for us to use felt like sand paper. Surely someone can afford a little better quality toiletries than that. Other than that we had a nice time and would like to go back if the cleaning was better and the smoke detectors were monitored a little closer.

Exceeded my expectation. We enjoyed our visit. Need to replace chairs in the living room. We will definitely come back.

The cabin was beautiful and we enjoyed our stay. Had some plumbing issues the first night but you sent someone over Sunday night and again Monday morning. That finally fixed the problem. The only issue we had was with the internet and it was the providers problem both times we had an issue. Thanks!

Steep driveway. Bedrooms on two different levels. Had some difficulties with the thermostat but the management company was very prompt to fix the problem. No cellphone service (was a nice reprieve) but had a landline available for emergencies. Couldn't see the creek but could hear it. Overall a very nice cabin. Wonderful people to work with!

Very nice, clean, better-than-average- furnishings, great yard. Some issues: 1) ants in kitchen before when we arrived and all during stay 2) can't see down the road when exiting driveway 3) steps are treacherous 4) something amiss with hot water; kept going off while we showered even when no hot water use for many hours before 5) dimmers on all light switches are maddening 6) front door locking system didn't work properly.

The furniture needs some love, but otherwise it’s a nice secluded place with everything you need for a good mountain weekend or week away.

Property was beautiful. House was kept up nicely except the cleaners did. It clean the floors. This seems to be an ongoing issue from previous review. Very remote, which was nice, but there is no view other than the trees surrounding the home 5’ From the home. Would have liked more Mountain Views. Beautiful decks. Not much of a yard to speak of as the home is literally against the mountain.

We thoroughly enjoyed this quiet little slice of heaven. So many choices for outdoor seating to just swing and listen to the wind and creek. I hopped into the jacuzzi while my husband grilled steaks and I couldn’t have been happier. The dogs loved roaming around and as an added bonus got to sleep in their crates on the covered top deck and snooze in the outdoors. I read the reviews and thankfully didn’t have the same experience the house was clean, cool and ready for us to enjoy the minute we got there.
