All Decked Out

4.97 out of 5 average rating, 59 reviews3 weeks ago

What a beautiful location and perfect accommodations. We loved being able to sit on the screened in porch for meals and used the dock for a morning yoga session. The beds were comfortable and the whole place was cozy and inviting. Would highly recommend Cliff and his beautiful home to a family or group who wants to get away with beautiful surroundings.

Stutts Peninsula Lake Access

5 out of 5 average rating, 3 reviews2 months ago

We spent 5 weeks in Amanda’s house. It was more than comfortable. The bed was so comfy. Our dogs totally enjoyed the fenced in backyard! I had packed a ton of cooking supplies…..thinking the house would not be sufficiently stocked for someone who loved to cook. My stuff stayed in boxes. House was stocked with everything we needed. High end utensils & pots. Extra bonus…..Amanda is a realtor. And helped us find our perfect retirement home! I absolutely recommend this property & host!!!

Unique Rustic Barn Theme home Amazing views! Luxe

5 out of 5 average rating, 49 reviews1 month ago

This was our second time staying in this home. It was every bit as wonderful as our first time. My sister and I brought our father for a long weekend. Everything was clean and well cared for and the beds and linens were extremely comfortable. We loved the generous kitchen and all the extras that were provided. It was well stocked and we found everything we needed. The view from the back deck is out of this world. The location is just a minute or two by car from Blowing Rock, where there are great restaurants and shopping. Lisa was wonderful, helpful, and so communicative. She made the experience easy!! This is now our go to home and Blowing Rock and we will definitely be back again!

Row House | Lakefront Luxury with Fire Pit!

5 out of 5 average rating, 6 reviews3 months ago

The house was beautiful with a view of the lake. I enjoyed coffee on the outdoor patio or in front of the various fires. We also enjoyed hiking the community trails as a family. My advice would be to pack everything, the kitchen did not have any supplies (ie garbage bags or olive oil). Worth every penny for the house and would love to go back in the summer. Oh and don't waste your time going to Marion, there's nothing in that town. Enjoy the outdoors instead :)

Sugaree - walk to Sugar ski lift, golf and tennis

5 out of 5 average rating, 43 reviews1 month ago

Great mountain vacation home! Proximity to Sugar Mountain and Banner Elk attractions couldn't be better. The home is very comfortable and has everything you would ever need. Kids loved the bunk room, ping pong table and playing in the creek. JD was a great host, very responsive and accommodating. Definitely hope to come back next year!
