OUTSTANDING! This home has all the comforts you would hope for (comfy beds, nice showers, plenty of kitchen supplies, etc.), but it also has so many additional details like labeled remotes and lights, and extra items for little ones and dogs! The attention to detail in service of the guests is SUPERB!! Communication was immediate and always helpful. This was by far the easiest and smoothest check out we have ever had at a rental! Highly recommend staying here!!

Graduation celebration

The property and location was great for us. Melissa is easy to communicate with and check in super easy. I gave a 3 for listing details. The house is on a single lane gravel road only one way in and out. It was maintained but no room for error and it gets super dark at night. No street lights. I think it's a detail worth mentioning. On the flip side no "white" lights so sleeping was great! I would definitely recommend staying if you were going to ski at Appalachian Ski Resort. It's super quiet and peaceful.

Our family of 4 and two small pups enjoyed our stay! The drive was easy getting to in the dark. The house is prefect and very well organized with labels everywhere for example on the light switches. The fenced in back yard is prefect for the pups to play. We LOVED that there was no carpet! We will be back for sure!!!!!
