We had a great stay at this house, had everything we needed. Perfect space for 4. It had all the necessities. We spent most of our time on the deck and really enjoyed the quiet. We did see bear several times. The beds were comfortable, thermostat was set perfectly. The location is pretty convenient...you can take two ways out, one way goes directly to Blueridge Parkway and the other road takes you directly to a main road (Merriman Rd) that leads you downtown. We personally did not spend much time down town and stuck closer to north end of Merriman Rd for dinner etc. Connie touched base with us several time to check in, which we really appreciated. It was a very nice touch. Check in and out was a breeze. Pretty perfect stay, thank you.
