The home as roomy and the layout worked well for our family of 6 adults and 2 toddlers.The house is beautifully decorated and in a quiet neighborhood close enough to Blowing Rock to enjoy the park and the pool. Our adult children loved the hot tub and the Ping Pong table. However, we visited during a very hot spell and the air conditioning on the main floor was too weak for the space. Carolina Cabins came out to see if they could adjust it to provide cooler air, but were not able to do so. Also, in spite of a huge TV in the living room, and TV's in the downstairs den, the Wi-Fi signal varied from very weak to nonexistent. We had no cell service, and the home did not have a land line. We spent days out enjoying the area, but not being able to watch TV or stream a movie in the evening, or being able to put on cartoons on f or the children was disappointing, as was the the inability to use our phones.

The house fit our needs perfectly. We would stay here again.

Our stay was truly perfect! A really wonderful place and we would come again for sure!

Very clean. Delighted with large array of cooking utensils and adequate supply of paper towels, dishwasher soap, washing machine soap, etc. Excellent location. Would stay again if no more than 4 people. Problems: 1.If 3 people shower simultaneously, hot water runs out. 2. Could not use TV very much--Apple TV had updated and wanted a password to start (our passwords were in New Orleans). The agency staff could not get it to work even with an in-person visit. 3. Hot and cold water are reversed in washing machine, so must set on "cold" if desire "hot". 4. No hot water in master shower. Fortunately, my brother in law once owned a plumbing business and he could fix this. 5.Needs more light in stairwell. 6. Needs more light in living room, especially since TV does not work very well. 7. Master bath is poorly designed--should enclose toilet; either put in a shower door or drain by gravity as often encountered in Europe; and replace door to bed area in order not to awaken someone else if one uses toilet during the night (we solved this problem by moving to another bedroom on lower floor, since our group ended up as 4 instead of 6 people. Also, the mattresses in that lower floor bedroom were much more comfortable). However, in summary, the house works well now for up to 4 people and I would rent it again.
