At first our stay was absolutely wonderful. The house was very nice, beautiful location, up the hill in the trees. Very secluded and peaceful. We had a totally positive experience, until we checked out. We knew that this property did not provide bed linens or towels for guests, so we had to bring our own. Because the house was quite a drive up the hill from the town, we also brought items like toilet paper and paper towels just to be safe. The property did leave some paper towels on the counter but we also used the ones we brought as we had 8 people in the house. Packing up to leave, a roll of paper towels were on the kitchen counter. Thinking nothing of it, I handed the roll to my niece since she is in college there at App State. It didn’t cross my mind if it was a roll we brought or was in the house. Well, about 20 minutes after we checked out and left, I received an email from the owners/hosts. They accused us of going into their “paper towel inventory” and stealing paper towels. Seriously? One roll of paper towels? That we provided for ourselves for the most part. If we had not brought our own, we would have used all of the towels they provided and then some. But more importantly, they admitted to surveillance cameras which were not disclosed to us per VRBO policy or NC law. So I would say only rent here if you want your hosts watching you the whole time. Creepy.

Great property with beautiful view. Cabin had everything you needed. Sleeps alot of people. However, the road/driveway is curvy and very narrow. Kinda scary but it is paved. You also have to bring your own linens. But again, the cabin is GREAT, clean, and secluded!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much. Excellent host who was easy to contact and helpful with my requests. The property is very quiet and peaceful. The inside decor is whimsical and has a definite mountain theme. The Cabin architecture is impressive. I don’t know how they got those massive logs up that mountain. It is solid. The kitchen has everything you need. Very clean. The hot tub was comfortable and extremely clean. The outdoor furniture was perfect. We loved the swing. We saw deer and wild turkeys from the deck. The charcoal grill was ok after I Googled on how to cook on it. I haven’t used charcoal in years.Nothing died in vain! It turned out well. We hired a guide from Speckled Trout and he was amazing. He took us on a private waterfall hike. Harper’s Falls. High point of our stay. We dodged rain and cool temps the rest of our stay. The hot tub was well used. We almost built a fire but didn’t. The park in Valle Crucis is soooo nice. You have a great walking trail along the river and the wood carvings of animals are beautiful.We would stay here again.

Owls Roost

This is a beautiful piece of property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We were there for four days three nights. The property was very clean, very spacious, and fully furnished to our liking. There were eight people in our group, this cabin is very spacious and accommodating for all that were there. I would definitely stay at this cabin again, and I would recommend it for anyone that is looking for a place to stay.

The Baking Planners review

Our group loved this place! The cabin was absolutely gorgeous and the view was great. It was fairly quiet, although there were a few dogs barking nearby often. The cabin is at the very top of a mountain, the road up was rough in places because of Helene, but we were able to get up and down without 4WD. The cabin was overall nicely cleaned, there were a few places like under the beds and in closets that were dirty, but not enough to cause problems for us. The interior was gorgeous! They had left out very nice Christmas decorations for us. Everything worked very well, the Alexa was nice to have, and they have a great speaker system that has outdoor speakers near the hot tub! The hot tub has a beautiful view and was phenomenal! We had no trouble bringing our own sheets and towels and they provided plenty of information on what to bring. The beds were very comfortable for everyone. The hot water is limited, we ran out when using the Jacuzzi tub but it wasn't a huge issue. Everything was very well stocked, we had lots of anything we needed except for grilling tools. There was one light out over the dining room table. Overall it was very nice and we would definitely consider coming back!

Walking on eggshells

I forgot to inform the owner that my brother who is 100% disabled from military service would have his service dog with him. My brother was sitting in the driveway with his service dog when the host approached him telling him that no pets were allowed on the property. My brother informed the host that the dog was a service animal, not a pet. That wasn’t good enough for the owner. The host and I talked and apologized for not informing him that my brother would have his service dog with him. That was good enough for the host, he continued to call the dog a pet and I continued to remind him that the dog was not a pet but a service dog. My brother has PTSD which is a fight for his life every day but due to the owner's aggressive behavior toward my brother, a decision was made that he had to go home. The owner told me I would have to pay an additional $100 for clean-up, here’s another quote from the owner “You probably got in only (1) round of golf - was it worth the trip? Certainly was not for us !!” So we walked on eggshells the 2 nights in this cabin, just waiting for another shoe to drop.

Beautiful Cabin

The cabin was wonderful and the location was a big plus. We had plenty of room for the family. The game room and the many board games in the basement and the hot tub on the deck were a big hit with all of us. The beds are all very comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. The living room has seating for plenty of people. There are only two minor things that I would note. The first is that you have to take your own linens. The second is there is nowhere to dump the garbage on property. You have to take it with you or run it to the landfill. Other than those two very minor items, we highly recommend this property and we would rent it again.

Nice house, pleasant stay, just come prepared

Overall the house was nice with a good view. We found out after booking that you have to bring all of your own towels and linens, which is rather annoying for weekend getaway. We tried to communicate with the owner several times before the stay about parking, door code, etc. While communication was quick, the owner was not overly friendly/helpful about us having “so many cars for so few people”, referring us to the email several weeks ago when asking about the door code, etc. Also, the grill was a charcoal grill, no gas or propane so come prepared with the necessary stuff.
