We had two families (11 in all) celebrating Thanksgiving. Great house - well appointed and large kitchen, large dining table, game room, multiple social areas for playing cards and chatting. Rooms were spacious and you can have separation/privacy when you need it as well as space for gathering. Hot tub a nice touch. The fitness facility beach and pool was a 0.5 to 0.75 mi walk (probably wouldn't walk it after dark - narrow road) or drive. We loved chimney rock (25-30 mins away) and other local hiking. Great place to connect with family and/or friends and enjoy the great outdoors.

Reminds me of my own home. Comfortable and roomy.

In the past 10 years or so I’ve stayed at a lot of properties under Homeway and VRBO and I have to say this ranks with the very best. Everything was as stated. Scott was a super attentive host, and always just a text away. Beautiful property in beautiful country. Lots of good restaurants and things to do including hiking and boating. I don’t think I can say enough good things about it!

The house had more than enough space for 3 families, with a huge kitchen that was perfect for gathering. The views are fantastic, the house is well-stocked and most importantly for us very clean! Having nearby restaurants, easy access to the lake and pickleball and mini golf within a couple of minutes were big hits. The property manager was easily accessible and was quick to follow up with any questions. We would recommend this house for anyone wanting to enjoy the water and mountains all in one place.

Our stay at Starry Ridge was wonderful. The house was very spacious and clean and location was perfect. Rumbling Bald resort felt safe, quiet and was not overly crowded - perfect for a relaxing lake/mountain getaway. The amenities and special events (s'mores and fireworks!) at Rumbling Bald were an added bonus! Everything we needed was close by or within 15-30 minutes drive. Back to the home itself: The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Bathrooms had hand soap(yes!!) and stocked with plenty of towels, toilet paper and shampoo/body wash. The kitchen was fully stocked and had plenty of room for us to not feel crowded-loved the large island! We loved the welcome area with snacks and cards. There were tvs in every bedroom and WiFi signal was strong. Kids enjoyed the pac man game and shuffle board in the game room. The laundry room was also great with plenty of detergent and cleaning supplies. The garage had a stroller, beach chairs and other items, though we did not need to use them. The driveway had plenty of room for 3 cars. The owners have thought out every detail well. Lastly, we really appreciated the temperature settings for the thermostat as many rentals recommend much higher settings for summer. Communication was on point. Our host was extremely responsive, helpful and professional. We were provided with clear instructions and information both ahead of and during our stay. We look forward to returning again in the future!

This home was perfect for our family! It is very spacious with a wonderful screen porch area, large fully equipped kitchen, hot tub on the deck, enough king beds for all in our extended family, and best of all - the amenities at Rumbling Bald Resort. We had a blast! The property manager was extremely helpful with great suggestions and advice for an absolutely wonderful vacation!

Wonderful property that matched exactly as it was listed. Full of amenities and the little things that make a stay away from home, feel like home. Management staff was great during the entire stay.

We had a family reunion and this was the perfect house. It was beautiful inside and out, well stocked and in a fantastic location. Communication with the host was excellent. The community amenities kept kids and adults alike active and happy! We have already talked about coming back!
