Great place in the mountains

Nice cozy mountain home in Seven Devils. Easy access to Hawksnest Snow Tubing and close to Sugar Mountain. Not far from Grandfather Mountain, Boone and Banner Elk! Home was clean and had plenty of the necessities that we needed for our two nights with our kids. We would stay again!!

Cozy scenic spot

This place was all we needed for a cozy mountain weekend celebrating our sons birthday. It's close to fun activities, private, beautiful scenic view of the mountains from the hottub, and though it is a bit outdated inside it didn't detract from our experience at all. We loved that it had a ping-pong ball set up for the dining room table for our boys.
