The place was really gross. The downstairs shower and multiple sinks had this blue dye on it. Idk if it was from cleaning products or what but it was gross. The downstairs shower was all around nasty; see the pictures. There was something (maybe mold or mildew) on the bath spout. The water wouldn’t full go into the shower head, half came out into the bath spout. The oven mitts had food caked all over them. The walls had marks everywhere. But the worst was the pillows… I had 3 pillows on the downstairs bed and one didn’t have a pillow case. The pillows were literally yellow/orange. Both the upstairs and downstairs beds felt like rocks from the 80s. The pool table had something all in it. Finding the shampoo, conditioner, and soap was more difficult than it should have been. The house was so loud that you couldn’t even move without the entire house waking up. The toilet had a “clean” paper on that had something all over it. The tv/entertainment system was awful.For the good parts, the hot tub was nice. The location of the house was good. The check in was very easy. The freezer had ice. The patio had comfy chairs, a good vibe, and a great view. In the morning the view was phenomenal! It was a quiet calm area. The neighbors were really nice. So all in all, this place has a ton of potential but definitely needs money put into it. It just feels like they don’t care because this place makes them money. If they invested one trip worth of money, they could have an amazing place!

We loved the property location. It's in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walking. We enjoyed the large tv in the family room when we weren't on the back porch enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature. The pool table was also a big hit. We look forward to returning soon.

Great spot!
Great little cabin! Good location to travel to blowing rock/ grandfather mountain. Cleanliness could have been a bit better, there was a left over article of clothing on the patio from a previous guest and one of the bedrooms had a pet odor. Master bed felt a bit like an air mattress. Overall, small issues to a cute place to stay for a weekend trip. Would come back!

Good Cabin
Cleanliness was very good, the decor dated and can tell high traffic. That said beds were comfortable, carpet seems almost new. Living room dated. The layout was a bit strange and pictures didn’t really show the bedroom layout and specifically the loft bed and entertainment / pool table in a bedroom. The hot tub was nice and clean.

Beautiful, clean, quiet and well appointed. Excellent!
This lovely home is ten minutes away from downtown Blowing Rock and also near Grandfather mountain. It is in a beautiful quiet neighborhood with a partial view of the mountains, large grassy lot, and plenty of room and spaces to hang out or be alone both inside and outside. We found the house to be quite clean. There were a few cobwebs here a there (such as on the chandelier and hard to reach places), but all of the furniture, hard surfaces/tables, bedrooms and baths were impeccably clean. The house was well appointed with all basic kitchen needs, plenty of towels, trash bags, pillows and even DVD's although we did not watch any TV. The internet password was located inside the house binder and was very fast, so much so that one of us was able to work remotely with ease.
The house was somewhat challenging to find as the house numbers are not in order and the house itself is shielded by trees from the road (and we arrived after dark, and the neighborhood is not well lit- which makes for a great nights' sleep). There is a wooden sign with the name "Mountain Hideaway" which we eventually found. By comparison, all switches and amenities are labeled in the house which helps you get oriented to where everything is. Everything was so easy.
The rental company contacted us frequently (by email and text) to make sure we had everything we needed and it was much appreciated.
The house was extremely comfortable and we would stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Great place but just a few tweaks needed
We just stayed at this property for a long girls’ weekend. There was a total of 4 adults and we enjoyed our time. The house is spacious, the deck, hot tub and views were perfect, the couch was comfy and we took full advantage of the fireplace. It was easy to get too, although the area had gotten about 14” of snow a few days before we got there and the driveway was not scraped. We wouldn’t have made it up the road or in/out of the driveway without AWD. Kitchen had ample pots, pans and storage for food but there didn’t seem to be enough eating or cooking utensils for a house that sleeps 10. We were fine; just something to keep in mind if you have a larger party. We were only given one dish towel so we went through a lot of paper towels. The wood floors on the main level are nice but the carpet in the bedrooms has seen better days, and I found a few fake nails on the floor in my room. One thing the pictures don’t show is that the pool table is IN the bedroom downstairs. That was a tad awkward but it didn’t kill the vacation by any means. And the pull out couch wouldn’t be a go-to for sleeping - mattress is quite old and flimsy.
The agency was great to work with and sent several detailed emails leading up to our stay about the house, procedures, services they offer (like grocery delivery) and the area. They even emailed to check on us while we were there. In general, we had a great time and would stay here again.
