Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Amanda R. Jul 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy The home is clean, but severely lacking with AC. Only one small fan unit in the front living area. At night with bedroom doors closed, it was absolutely miserable. No one enjoys a vacation when you lack sleep. The “management” was no help - not even familiar with the unit. Many upgrades needed. ##### Amanda R. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Eric S. Jun 26, 2025 Liked: Communication Disliked: Location, listing accuracy #### Disappointing but we still loved Blowing Rock When we arrived on the 1st night the door was unlocked and there was no running water. The mattresses on the beds were really substandard and noisy whenever you turned over. The dining room chairs should be replaced, and there are almost no kitchen supplies. The location is pretty good since you can easily drive into town, but it's a multi home unit, so be aware that you're sharing the property with others. It does have lots of potential, and I'm sure the owners will update the property and make improvements. They were very communicative with us about these issues, and even refunded one night of our payment. ##### Eric S.
