Blokhutten in Sugar Mountain

'Great stay. The bedroom with the loft was fun. Weather was perfect. At that elevation, it seems to stay comfortable in the summer. Host was very responsive to questions. Good location, near Boone, Banner Elk, Sugar Mtn Ski Resort and Valle Crucis.'

'House was great for our 11 adult family members. Spacious living area. 6 large bedrooms. Kitchen very well stocked with supplies.House was clean and the host William was great to deal with. Answered questions quickly. Area very quiet. Loved seeing deer and groundhog early in the morning.'

'The host is wonderful and went out of his was to help with extending our stay when needed. The house was the perfect size and we enjoyed to view from the deck. I highly recommend this house and host to anyone looking for a getaway and a quiet vacation.'

'We had a great time on our girls weekend trip to Banner Elk. The cabin was spacious, welcoming and clean. Unfortunately we did have issues with the hot tub. The control panel was not functioning so no jets. We notified the host who was quick to respond and have maintenance get it working but with it being the weekend everyone was off. It didn’t ruin our trip we still had a great time. We will definitely be back '

'Wonderful 1848 cabin with log walls and wood floors, a little crooked but remember when it was built. Everything updated inside in kitchen, bathrooms and comfortable furniture. Lots of dishes, pots/ pans etc for cooking. We spent our early mornings and evenings on the swing on the screened in porch and enjoying visits with the deer and rabbits. The location was great for everything and every place we wanted to visit. Great trout pond for fishing in walking distance of the cabin. They will clean...

'Several items unsafe- sliding glass door lock broken, receptacle plate missing; wires hanging; post on railing on 2nd floor deck missing (our golden retriever could fit through - no question dangerous) Outside could use some TLC; inside was nice.'

'Perfect for the adventure'

'This five bedroom, two-story house is great for large families or groups. Kitchens are well-stocked, although if there are specific spices or oils you prefer, bring those or buy them at two local grocery stores. The hosts are terrific, as are the neighbors. Be prepared to drive up a private gravel road that was rutted by rains when we were there. It's manageable. Know that the house is not handicap accessible, though it's not advertised as such. We had a marvelous time in the area. Lots to do....

'Everything was clean and ready for us. Was a cold week but still nice and warm with the gas logs. Kitchen was supplied with utensils and cooking equipment. Enjoyed our stay. We will be back. '

'The property was unkempt, very dirty. There were 2 window units for a 3 story 5 bedroom unit which in no way is adequate. The hot tub had not been serviced in a while. There was “ gunk” and debris clinging to the filter. Grill grate was broken, the other had chunks of old food on it. Silverware drawer was full of crumbs ( we assumed that’s is what it was) carpets were filthy. There were several fans in the house, but they were covered in dust. The odor was that of mildew and mold. It was a bad...

'Renting from this host has been a 100 percent positive experience for me! The home fit all our needs, as well as being quiet and well outfitted, the hot tub was a plus on many evenings. This was my first long term rental and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it was managed by our host. He was quick to respond to questions, moved quickly on a small repair that was necessary, and generally made us feel welcome. Would definitely rent again! Barbara'

'The first thing you need to know before you book is that you have to take all your trash with you & take it to one of 2 collection centers, the closest is about 15 minutes away. This may not be a problem for some, but for some with smaller vehicles, or just a full vehicle, this can be a big problem. They also tell you to go fill the grill propane tank if it's empty (which it was). None of this info is given in the listing before you book. They send you a general info message with this...

'Hidden Gem is amazing. We stayed for 4 days to enjoy the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games. The house was perfect for a mix of adults and young children. Super clear and easy booking, communication, check-in and check-out. We already have ideas on coming back. Highly recommend.'

'When we first walked in we noticed how clean and amazing it smelled! The house was beautiful and the host had clear instructions to use all appliances and for check out. We will definitely stay again!'

'It was a nice experience staying there, the only thing was that we ran out of hot water.'

'It was clean and perfect for our family. Host attentive to all questions and issues during stay. Perfect location for Beech Mountain '

'The host overturned our pet fee because she liked our cleanup. She even offered to defer it for future stays. That's awesome.'

'Very cozy and secluded. We enjoyed it.'

'We had a very nice stay and the property was beautiful as advertised. My only gripe was that there was no soap or shampoo in the bathrooms nd for such a nice property, i think something tiny like that could go a long way to making the stay considetably nicer.'
