The house was spacious and clean inside. Some wear & tear throughout and needs some care in areas but doesn't impact usability. Unfortunately, the AC was not working on the upper floor for our entire stay which was a real negative. Location is secluded and convenient for groceries, restaurants, & other activities although there is some road noise. Decks are large and were a nice gathering place for our group.

Clean home, great communication.

Stunning neighborhood and excellent location to enjoy the activities we wanted to do. Close proximity to Boone, Blowing Rock and Linville. Banner Elk offered some delicious restaurants, farmers market, grocery and great souvenir shop. The basement playroom (darts, pool, foosball, air hockey) came in handy since we had thunderstorms every afternoon during our stay. It allowed us to return to the rental and play games while we waited for the storms to pass. The jacuzzi, hammocks, cornhole and fire pit looked great, but the rain prohibited us from enjoying those. The home was super clean when we arrived. I do wish the upstairs patio furniture was in a little better condition. The broken weaving and missing slats on some of the porch chairs prohibited them from being usable. The spacious kitchen was adequately stocked. The gorgeous scenery and peaceful serenity won us over as soon as we arrived!

The house itself was beautiful and everything we were expecting based on the listing. Unfortunately, many of the doors in the house did not lock properly and we needed to use cords/dog leashes to secure them. The dishwasher wheels on the racks were rotted. As we attempted to put a few glasses on the top rack it collapsed and shattered many plates and glasses. When we went to use the vacuum it didn’t work until we personally tried to fix it and unclog it. After reaching out to Carolina Cabin Rentals, they sent a maintenance man who delivered a brand new vacuum. He confirmed that the door locks were broken and the dishwasher needed to be replaced. Neither of these were fixed throughout the week while we were there. For the amount of money that we payed we didn’t feel as though we were given the treatment we deserved when we were expressing our concerns for safety.
