Summary: Host exceeded our espectations. Wonderful home for our family Thanksgiving vacation, large well stocked kitchen with impressive dinning room with activites for entire family ( pool table, shufflle board, hot tub, foosball and unexpected theater room , which Grandkids enjoyed watching Garfield and eating popcorn), while extra outside areas provided adults with fantastic views of river and country side. Fishing for Trout is a plus at this location. this property offers more pluses than we have mentioned .The standout point was the the host.

Summary: Our extended family stayed her to attend my nephew's wedding. It was a bit of a partial family reunion for us. The property was very family friendly and comfortable. The kids enjoyed the spaces to play games and to be outside. The view of the river was beautiful. The porch was very relaxing just to hang out or read. We enjoyed watching the birds around the river. Overall a very nice stay for us.

Eli W. Nov 20, 2024 02:47:24 AM

Summary: Been hosting trips to the area for over a decade fly fishing on the Watuaga and SoHo. Our scheduled trip was in jeopardy due to the destruction from Helene and our normal lodging was heavily damaged by the flooding and closed for repair. It is a large group(10) men that enjoy the outdoors, fishing, cooking together, and a good time. This was the only place that we felt would accommodate all of us. And it did!!! It was loaded with amenities and really enjoyable. Vance is attentive and keeps up communication. Highly recommend!

Summary: Perfect for our large family. Finally enough bedrooms. 😊 We enjoyed the river, hot tub, theater, and games. Thank you, Vince for the use of your fishing poles. We want to come back and tube the river. The porches were very relaxing and the perfect place to connect with friends.

Summary: We rented the home for an 80th birthday party with family. This place is truly a venue.The river view and easy access to the river were a huge hit with everyone. The deck was well maintained with plenty of nice seating. We didn't use the hottub but Vince had it ready to use if we needed it. All the bedrooms were huge with private baths. There was enough room for everyone to spread out. The kitchen was well maintained and stocked. I was not able to get in touch with Vince through the VRBO messaging or on the phone # I was given. I had to call VRBO to have him contact me. The day before we left we still had not received check-in instructions. The communication prior to the visit was a little frustrating. However, Vince was extremely accomadating, showing us the home features and calling to ensure everything was going well. Absolutely the nicest guy.

Summary: ved our stay. It was the perfect place to host our family Christmas Party. Beautiful clean house with a beautiful view. And Vince was a very attentive host. I highly recommend.
