The home was beautiful, spacious, clean, and very accommodating. The views were absolutely beautiful. As someone who loves to cook, I truly appreciated that the kitchen was fully stocked with everything I needed. Mornings were especially peaceful—I enjoyed reading my book on the patio while drinking my coffee and watching the deer pass by. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this home to others.

Great place to stay if you are in the Mills River area of NC. Up on a hillside with a pretty good north to northwest view towards Asheville. Home is very nice, very comfortable, and well decorated which definitely gives you that home feeling. Second level kitchen was well stocked, and first floor has additional smaller kitchen area which would be great for multiple families to stay and have there own area. Open concept on both floors but maybe a little narrow for large number of guests when staying. Beds where very comfortable for a great nights sleep but note that all of the bedrooms do not have a connecting bathroom for additional privacy with the first floor bedroom having one bathroom on the other side of home, only the master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom on the second level. Additional note master bedroom does not have an accessible closet to hang any cloths. Barn was a great addition but not very usable during the daytime summer heat. Again, nice home to stay in the area.
