This is our second stay, and it was equally enjoyable to the first. The beds are comfortable. The rooms are clean. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need. It’s a perfect place to sit and relax and watch the leaves fall.

The house is very nicely decorated and well set up, more like a regular house and not so cabin themed like many others we looked at. The hosts communicated well when we asked questions. It was very quiet and only about 15-20 min away from Boone. I would stay here again.

A delightful home and hosts! We were visiting for the Doc and Rosa Lee Bluegrass Festival so it was a perfect location. It’s not far from some of the other city centers for daytime excursions. The house is well appointed and designed well! We all enjoyed our stay!

Weekend in Vilas

This property is beautifully appointed!! Very clean and has lovely property. Quiet neighborhood and easy access to downtown Boone. The decks of the bedrooms are great for morning coffee or just relaxing throughout the day. We loved this place so much we are headed back less than a month later. Great value!!
