The owner was very easy to work with and had excellent communication and overall made it a point to make sure that everything was going well throughout the trip. The house had an interesting combination of large gathering areas and yet also had areas in which one could spend individual time away from the group.

We loved that each room had its own unique charm, providing everyone with a cozy retreat after a day of activities.Game Room:One of the standout features of the cabin was the game room. Equipped with a pool table, air hockey, and a variety of board games, it provided endless entertainment during our downtime. We spent hours laughing and competing, creating memories that we’ll cherish for years to come. The room was spacious enough for everyone to spread out, yet cozy enough to feel intimate.Common Areas:The large windows allowed natural light to flood in, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

We enjoyed a long weekend in Boone with family - the three floors were laid out perfectly for our needs. Lots to do in the house - and close by to many activities. Owners were great with making suggestions for activities and restaurants; as well as communicating in advance and during our stay. A great visit! ##### Amy N.

We had a wonderful time staying here. We had plenty of room for all of us with much to keep the kids busy- ping pong, air hockey and the hot tub were faves! The views from the porches were beautiful and the sounds of nature and the river below were so relaxing. Thanks for providing a comfortable and cozy home to spend our spring break in! ##### Laura B.

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Very well stocked and had everything we needed. Only draw back for such a large cabin is the parking is very limited. ##### Tara H.
