• Fantastic House for a Mountain Getaway

  5/5

  The house was PERFECT for our 4 couples! So nice that each couple had their own bath. We really enjoyed the 2 decks (great patio furniture) and the pool table downstairs! The fireplaces didn't put off much heat, but sure provided a great ambience. The kitchen was very well stocked with plenty of plates, flatware, wine glasses, casserole dishes, etc. Everything we needed to make a scrumptious breakfast each morning was provided. The location was beautiful with the church bells ringing on the hour up until 9 PM and then taps was played. Enjoyed visiting several waterfalls, Highlands NC, great dining, wine vineyards, and hiking. Big shout out to Mark, the property manager, as his communication was prompt and he gave some great suggestions of places to visit! Would definitely recommend this property and look forward to staying there again in the near future!

• New Owners - new problems

  1/5

  Awful. We were told 3 days before our arrival that the new owners cancelled the satellite TV and we would need to have our own streaming services. 2 days before arrival, we were told there was no WiFi, but it would be fixed while we were there. We negotiated a credit of $300 (we asked for $500). We arrived Sunday, it was supposed to be fixed Tuesday. We called Mark (property manager) Tuesday afternoon and were told the internet tech didn’t show up, but he would keep us posted. We never heard from Mark the rest of our stay.

  I challenge anyone to host their family for a week over Thanksgiving with no TV or WiFi or cell service (unless you have Verizon). No football. No Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. No holiday movies. Can’t check work emails. Can’t receive text messages/calls from family and friends on Thanksgiving Day. My daughter had a security alert at her home, but didn’t find out about it until the next day when we went into town. SO disruptive!

  After our trip, I reached out to Mark requesting an additional $500 for the inconvenience. I followed up with him 3 days later, and the owner agreed to add $50 to the $300 credit.

  Clearly, the new owners DO NOT care about your experience, they only care about taking your money - and we didn’t get what we paid for.

  While this didn’t ruin our family visit, it added unnecessary stress and frustration to what should have been a relaxing week. We will NEVER rent this house again.

  PS - we are still waiting for our credit.

• Beautiful Mountain stay

  5/5

  Very nice house just as described. Close enough to grocery stores and antique shopping. Dryer downstairs would never heat up to dry clothes. Used the one upstairs. Plenty of room. Driveway was very steep. Low car had scraped coming in but made it up. The girls enjoyed playing pool for hours. Would recommend for big family

• Sky Valley

  5/5

  My family and I had a wonderful time in Sky valley. The location was beautiful. The home was cozy and warm. It was even decorated for the holidays! A great place to get away from it all and spend some quality family time.

• Wonderful NE Georgia retreat

  5/5

  Stayed just a couple days after Christmas, but wish we stayed longer. House arrangement was perfect for our family of 5, but easily could accommodate 2 separate families. Very comfortable, well laid out and included pretty much everything you might need (even had full-size body wash and shampoo in each shower). Community is very nice and great location. Only about 20 minutes to Highlands, NC or Clayton, GA, with tons of things to do - hiking, sightseeing, shopping, dining, etc. Would love to stay here again!
