Such a beautiful cabin!

We were very impressed with this house (much larger than in photos) and all of the unique characteristics! My 7 year old son loved fishing in the stream and playing pool. Hot tub and other amenities were very nice and in good condition. This was a perfect house for our family's annual trip! Thank you!

The home is nice and in a quiet neighborhood but wasn’t clean and wasn’t ready for an on time check in. The decks were covered in leaves. The house was dusty and candy wrappers left around the home.

House was large, plenty of places to relax & enjoy the view. Saw deer in the yard at some point each day of our stay. The pool table & hot tub are a nice addition. Really enjoyed the quiet & beauty of the place.

This cabin was phenomenal! We had 8 people and it comfortably fit all of us, the cots upstairs were great! Plenty of space and the hot tub was great in the evenings! This cabin came equipped with everything we needed to cook every night and was very clean and well kept. It definitely exceeded expectations! About 15-20 minutes outside of Boone depending on how fast you take the mountain roads so all in all great location! 10/10 would recommend!

Weekend getaway was generally nice. House is definitely showing it’s age and the wear of years of rental stays. Home needs some TLC and a good cleaning. The front door has no insulation and was unpleasant during our winter weekend stay. Hot tub water was cloudy. We made the best of the trip and were discounted for some inconveniences.

This cabin is very nice plenty of space and great location. But the house was not cleaned very well, lots of dust and hair on floors, windows and shelves. No dish soap, laundry detergent, paper towels or garbage bags. I know these products are not required but for the price a small amount is normal in all my other VBRO visits.

My husband and I snowboard but also wanted to be off the ski mountain. We chose this cabin last minute and it was perfect. The drive is beautiful. The cabin had everything we needed and more. The hot tub and pool table were perfect. The kitchen was well stocked with the supplies we needed to stay in. We will book again.

I am a frequent user of VRBO and visitor to the Boone NC area. So generally I have a broader history and therein expectation of what a property should be. I was over-all very pleased with my visit. All of the key elements of the property were in excellent working order despite what some earlier reviews pointed out. I was very happy. The hot tub is one of the best I have experienced and the Jacuzzi in the master is a very nice touch. Service from the rental team was also top notch. The location is excellent. Do be prepared with 4 wheel drive if there is snow or ice as the driveway in is steep. The drive is a circle with one of the entrances much easier to navigate than the other. I would recommend a footnote to this entry process to help first time renters. I was there for a business / work sabbatical so Internet was vital. I had excellent reception with Verizon. I understand that T-Mobile is not good. Thanks for a splendid visit and enjoyable use of your home.

I really enjoyed our stay we will definitely be back!

The location of the property is perfect. Extremely convenient to Blowing Rock, Boone, and Banner Elk. Relaxing outdoor atmosphere with the river behind the home and the fire pit. It’s also a great area to walk but be ready for the hills. We highly recommend this property for anyone just wanting to get away and enjoy the mountain life.

Nice location. Close to Boone and other areas of interest in the area. Driveway is very steep and only room for one car.

Loved the peaceful area, the sound of the creek, surrounded by trees, and the gorgeous home! Just what we needed and better than expected. The home is better than the pictures.

The cabin is located in a lovely part of North Carolina and is comfortable and we'll appointed. We used this as a "home base" for a variety of water sports and outdoor activities.

When I rented this property I was looking for water access, pool table and a hot tub. We received a call in the morning that we were leaving, that this house was not available due to numerous issues. They did send me five additional properties to look at, and we did select the one that was most comparable. (Nothing as nice as what we actually paid for) But we had zero water access and no hot tub. disappointing that these issues we’re not discovered prior to the day we were supposed to check in. The house that we did end up staying in was very quaint and nice, but not what I paid for. Also the gentleman that I spoke to, (he was very kind) to choose this cabin sent me the wrong information for the door lock code, so that was also a hassle. Where is my refund for the inconvenience? no water? No hot tub? My family and I didn’t stay in this beautiful cabin that I paid for?

House was very nice. Uniquely furnished, perfect family get-a-way. Property owner was quick to respond. Stay was enjoyed by all. Perfect location close to Boone, Blowing Rock and Banner Elk. I was curious about the location to the river, as no reviews were clear. It's not flat easy access, but not too difficult either. River is beautiful. I would suggest clearing out some brush to make better river access, however if you are fishing, easy to access the water. Not kid friendly for access, though. Would stay here again. Very quite location.

This home was Beautiful we had a amazing time. The home/cabin made the trip even more amazing. We will be back. The fire place was my favorite thing in the cabin. The structure of the cabin is outstanding thank you

No key code in email no service to call management took 30 mins to reach someone. Beautiful rain showers as not hot water. Can not use spa tub hot water heater isn’t big enough. Day 1 I fell through the rotted deck and had to go to the ER. Cabin company claimed the had no prior knowledge of the deck issue but they did. Going back to 2019 several reviews stating all 3 issues.

Everything was great

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Rio! The house is absolutely beautiful and in a great location. Boone is only a 15 minute drive and has anything you could need for your stay. We loved the indoor fireplace and the hot tub. We got snow during our stay and it we had lots of fun playing outside in front and back of property. The river and mountain views are magnificent. Definitely recommend this cabin for any time of year!

Great place for a vacation. I had an issue and fell through the deck luckily I was okay but I told management and they got someone out that day to fix. The toilets definitely need to be updated but other than that this place was a dream.

Amazing cabin and we will be back for sure. Thank you

This was a great spot and we will definitely rent again in the future

Enjoyed the stay

The cabin was beautiful and the service was great.

Cleanliness not totally as expected Need more silverware Plumbing work needed on all faucets, mainly kitchen

This cabin was really cute, and in a good location. We were 15 mins from Boone and 20ish from Banner Elk. It was cozy and mostly well stocked. We enjoyed our time. The cons are easy fixes...towels were super thin and smelled like mildew, the cabin is super dark because many of the lights were burned out, almost all the toilet paper holders were about to fall off the wall. The master bedroom was missing blinds on one window so we had to hang a blanket we brought with us. Lastly the cabin needs a deep clean, the sliding door tracks were caked with black dirt -possible mold but we didn't exam it that close. These are all easy fixes- this cabin was just but definitely needs some TLC.

The house has a nice view from every window and so private , we loved that part. It has not enough lights, no bin trash can or recycle bin outdoor. No cleaning or organize properly outside the house either . Bed sheets were ok but the blankets are so old that has smell. . Decoration is really different from we were expecting , no lights or illumination inside the house enough , decoration very eccentric with taste, plastic plants in everywhere , no our style. Plus the river access is only for people who can really can climb !!! Kitchen no well equipped, no blender, no smalls spoons, , no enough cups only glasses for adults drinks. Well, relative this is a 3 starts house and they charge like 5 starts when is not .

I think the house was very very nice absolute beauty. I would really like for the river to have a better safer access but overall I think it was a great place love seeing the deer in the yard the porches we're great , overall it was a wonderful stay thank you very much. Would highly recommend ,very close to alot of things to do.
