Great weekend getaway! Due to a pretty significant snow storm (at least to us) we didn’t even leave the cabin once we arrived! It was well stocked and we were able to just relax by the fire

Great Mountain House with everything you need.

This place was clean when we checked in. Everything was in working order. Between the hot tub, fire pit, and views, we found it more than adequate for our ski house.

Valle Crucis Escape

Great place and location. Very relaxing ambiance, well equipped, and cozy. One disappointing factor was the extreme amount of dust/pollen on entire deck and all deck furniture, housekeeping should have rinsed it down, would have only taken a couple minutes. Everything else was great.

Nice getaway!

We enjoyed the property very much. Hot tub was nice. Beds were comfortable. House was very clean. No real complaints. Just a couple of minor suggestions: Deck chairs were a bit dusty, Wi-Fi was spotty - maybe because of location in the mountains. But overall a very pleasant experience. And we would come again.

Lovely spaces, lots of places.

This home worked so nicely for our family. The loft, the sunroom/office, the kitchen, and the large family/living room, as well as the porches and the yard, gave us comfortable options for grouping together. The large and well-equipped kitchen was really wonderful for what I love to do as the nana in the family ~ cook for everybody. Thank you for making such a warm and beautiful place available for guests. We also own a short term rental here in Boone, which makes us especially appreciative of how clean and in good condition everything was. And goodnesss, what a great location. Paul and Judith

The place needs to be updated and cleaned better. Everything just felt a little grimy and worn. I would not choose to stay here again. We did get a service call put in and got a quick response because the shower wasn’t working in the main bathroom. The maintenance guy came out and showed us how to maneuver the shower faucet to get the water to come out but the pressure was very low and never got warm.

Great Location and House

The location is near the center of Valle Cruses so convenient and quiet. It is in a neighborhood with neighbors adjoining in case you are looking for a secluded cabin. The house is very nice and the area is quiet. The hot tub worked fine and it has a propoane firepit in the fenced yard with a nice large wrap around porch. The one negative is that we did not realize we were not going to be dealing with the owner, as our other VRBO experiences. The house is rented through Foscoe Rentals which is a corporate rental business which has many, many houses hence the paperwork was six plus pages with many clauses that we do not have to deal with when renting from an individual owner. The texts and e-mails were not personal as we are accustomed to with VRBO. For a short term rental of only 2-3 days this is cumbersome. I wish this had been disclosed somehwere in the listing prior to getting into this cumbersome corporate rental paperwork for a short stay.
