We have stayed here for a summer getaway 2 years in a row, we love it! A great host, super clean, very nice condo. Has everything you need to cook meals and enjoy family time! ☀️

This is an incredible find. Not only is this property in a beautiful setting; but, the interior is masterfully designed, as well. Treat yourself to the incredible sunsets over the mountains, the wildlife (from a distance) and m the fantastic hiking! Serene and refreshing. Close to all Black Mountain amenities. Definitely check out Soji Spa and the Black Mountain Bistro.

What a perfect, clean, cozy, well-appointed getaway. Everything you might need in the kitchen, comfy bed and recliners. But the very best part is the scenery! Sit on the porch and watch the horses, squirrels, deer, geese and turkey. A short, flat walk to the creek where there's more seating and steps down into the cool water. Close to waterfalls, rafting, distilleries, wineries and eclectic towns, but awesome enough to never leave. Highly recommend!
