Beautiful house with a few small issues

Vacation Date: April 1, 2024

"Overall, this was the perfect house for a large group. There was plenty of room for everyone and the house was immaculately clean. My only issues were: WiFi (connection was poor overall, but you cannot get anything to stream at all in the basement theater). And lack of curtains/blinds in the bedrooms. This led to a lack of privacy and also the sun was extremely bright, early in the morning. It was hard to sleep in the master bedroom for this reason. Generally speaking, though, the house and setting were picturesque. If they hard wired the WiFi in the house and added some blinds, it would have been perfect.

A peaceful mountain getaway

Vacation Date: April 24, 2024

"This was a fantastic property for us to gather with family and friends for a celebration. The house is huge and has plenty of space for privacy. We loved the sunrise views off the balcony, watching tv in the movie room, and soaking in the hot tub. We really appreciated all the baby friendly amenities like a high chair and pack-and-play. The drive up to the house is indeed very narrow and steep. The front steps are also a set of stones and hard to climb for some so keep in mind when loading/unloading. Otherwise, we had a really nice stay and would return (one of the kids was already asking if we could come back someday!)

Vacation Date: May 25, 2023

"The house had a perfect amount of space for a large family especially when the weather was not so great. The views were amazing and the porches were great for meals, lounging, and coffee in the morning. There were clear instructions for everything in the house including the sound system, movie theatre, and games. All the bedrooms were spacious and fitted with comfortable beds/bedding. The kitchen had everything you could possibly want in it, including every appliance or utensil you would desire. We had an issue getting the heat on with the unseasonably cold weather during our stay, but the property management company was responsive and we got things solved quickly. The only gripe we had was one of the bathrooms had a bit of an an infestation with hundreds of dead ants on the floor...but we cleaned them up and they did not come back. It should be noted that the house is situated on top of a windy and remote road can be a little treacherous during bad weather. Great stay overall.

The house was comfortable and had many things to do when relaxing inside, from a large variety of games to a movie room, or just relaxing on one of the porches looking out at the mountains. It’s located a short drive from The Biltmore Estate and Asheville. Multiple stores nearby to pick up groceries and spirits. Yonder was quick to respond to questions and was a great host.
