Everyone in my family was delighted with the home from my 5 yo grand daughter to this 80 yo grandfather. While they hiked, used the recreational facilities on the ground floor and the hot tub, I spent time on the deck with its magnificent views and climate. Two possible negatives: 1, if you have mobility issues (like me), you should be content with staying put on the main floor (I was!) 2, shopping for food at a "nearby" grocery store requires a travel time-commitment for folks used to easy access to these stores. You may want to stop at a supermarket before initially arriving or on your way back from an adventure to Asheville or the Biltmore. Overall, my family and I would happily return to this property for a stay.
