This was our 2nd stay - you can look back to Jan 2022 to see the original review. All of those things still are true today. The house is fantastic and in such a great location (secluded while near everything). This trip was a bit more memorable as we saw a bear cub walk up the driveway! We thought that was cool enough, only a few minutes later to see the momma bear walk up the driveway. I don't say that to scare anyone, as black bears are a part of this part of Western NC, so just take an extra glance or a flashlight when going outside at dusk or at night.
