We had such a wonderful stay at this home! The views were breathtaking and there was never a dull moment— games galore! We had a ping pong tournament going each night between the married couples and children! The TVs all work well and the home truly is fully stocked! We had everything we needed to make the best Christmas dinner + other meals during our stay— pots, pans, blender, crockpot, waffle maker, multiple coffee pots, griddles.. you name it, they have it! The whole home was decorated so tastefully for Christmas! My daughter loved the clawfoot bathtub! I loved that they provided a baby crib + a baby gate to provide some safety for our daughter! Our only complaints would be similar to others complaints- we weren’t completely aware of the loft situation— there is no roof separation between the upstairs bedrooms and downstairs. The photos don’t quite show that. You could hear everything- very little sense of privacy. The lights were shining bright in the upstairs bedrooms if someone was still awake/watching tv in the living room downstairs. We brought our own fans to dull out noise for our 1.5 year old when she went to sleep, but the noise was still too loud to keep her soundly asleep. I’m not sure what can be done, as it’s aesthetically pleasing to look at, however, I’d suggest bringing your own fans or noise makers if you’re a light sleeper :). Overall, still a 5/5 experience!! We truly had a blast and the host and property manager were so lovely to work with!

The two bedrooms and one bathroom upstairs are not rooms - they are loft without full walls and this was not mentioned at all in the description. Also, we could not access the outside lighting and the two entrances from the outside have several steps. We had someone in our group in a wheelchair and since we could not access the lighting, we had a horrible time trying to get him in and out of the cabin. We reached out the the property manager on the day of our arrival asking about the outside lights and did not hear back from the property manager until the day we were leaving so this meant we had to be back each night before dark.

This place thoroughly exceeded our already high expectations. The property was immaculately maintained and the house was fully outfitted with everything you could need for a long weekend. Furnishing, dining ware, appliances, etc were all top notch and well maintained. So much fun stuff to do for all ages. Great fishing, kayaks, fire pit outside and then wet bar, huge TVs, bumper pool, ping pong, darts, and tons of games kept everyone occupied and happy. Already planning our next trip back. Had 8 people (4 kids 4 adults) and everyone loved it.

This home was just amazing!! My husband and I and our five adult children spent a week in this beautiful home! There was plenty of space and plenty of entertainment for everyone. We had bonfires nearly every night and saw deer regularly and even saw a buck swim across the lake. The house has everything you need for cooking meals too. The wrap around porch is just amazing and we loved the hot tub. The beds are very cozy and comfortable. I can’t say enough about the wonderful time and mementoes we had in this home and in the town of Blue Ridge. We will for sure be back. Catherine is an amazing hostess and keeps in great contact with any questions you may have.

The views off the porch are amazing. Its the perfect place to go for peace and quiet. Best part NO PHONE SERVICE! And the ownership is great very nice and on top of any problems.

A friend and I spent a long weekend here and it was one of the best trips we’ve ever taken. Definitely too much house for 2 people, but it was nice to have our own space when we needed it. The amenities were top notch, we played darts, watched football in the hot tub and took the kataks out fishing. Can’t wait to get back!

This vacation home is in a beautiful setting with many amenities. The host, Catherine, was lovely to work with and very helpful with any issues. The house was clean and well stocked. Unfortunately the design of it didn’t work well with an infant. The bunk room had a great crib, and we started her out there, but then we couldn’t use the bonus game room. When we moved her to another bedroom the openness of the design of the house made it impossible to use the rest of the house while she was sleeping. This house would be great for adults and probably older children. We did enjoy our stay despite this issue.

Our family stayed at Nature's Courtyard the week of our daughter's wedding. We stayed a few days afterwards and it was amazing! Catherine was very kind and helpful in every way - she even ordered a few items for the house that we needed! Such an awesome host! The property was perfect for our family! We loved the peacefulness and the location of the house. The amenities were outstanding and it was a very clean property. We hope to return again one day!
