This house and view are great. I would say the details about how to get there and the roads you drive on should be a little more in depth. We have a 4WD and it was still difficult for us to get to the house. Also there is no way you could get more than one car in the driveway. Just think people need a fair warning on the difficulty of reaching the house.
Great views from the deck, private setting. It has a great floor plan that maximizes mountain views. The house was clean, the company puts some thought into making everything welcoming. There are detailed instructions for everything and even suggestions for hikes (which we made use of). A couple things that aren't really complaints but that other guests might want to know about: - The house is up a somewhat steep gravel drive that you will likely need to back down. - The hot tub cover is falling apart and leaves blue plastic bits in and around the tub. - The house creaks rather loudly when the wind blows, enough to wake from sleep.
Best view. Nice accommodation. Hot tub cover was broken was a real pain to deal with. Would be nice if there was a tv in the main living area, not just the loft. Overall great place would definitely come back.
The property is nicely appointed and the long range views of Sugar, Beech, & Grandfather Mountains are wonderful! A hot tub with a view? Yes please! The location is a bit more remote than anticipated, but after the first couple of day trips to regional adventures, it really wasnât an issue. We would stay here again for sure!
My daughters and I had the most relaxing experience. We are sad that we didnât have more time.
A few issues but nothing big. The ceiling fan in the main room did not work, the bar on the hot tub was broken on the left side (had to get chair to hold it), could not figure out washer, followed directions but no water.
I did leave 4 bundles of firewood for next person as we only had a few fires (had some rain).
However, the peace and quiet was what we wanted. It was amazing to hear owls, coyotes, etc. who could ask for more?
Thank you for letting us share the home with you. I would totally use your services again.
We really enjoyed staying at the Misty Peak! My husband and I used it as a short getaway vacation so we didnât do a ton of things in the surrounding area. It was a little bit of a drive to stores/shops. The cabin decor was a bit dated, but it came well equipped with kitchen utensils and was otherwise clean and taken care of. The only complaint we had was the amount of mold in the shower and how dirty it was. It looks like it needs a really thorough scrub and some maintenance. The cabin came equipped with an a/c window unit upstairs, which was a welcome surprise to us. It does look like it also needs a good cleaning, the vents were quite dirty. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.
I only can give 2 stars. The showers looked to have mildew in the grout. I found a bowl of uneaten cereal in my sons room. It was in a drawer. The grill was so full of grease we did not even use it. Not sure who is taking care of the property but those things should not be an issue. The location was beautiful. Weather was perfect. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but the cleanliness was an issue.
Overall, we had a great time. The cabin is beautiful. The mountain views are amazing. It is way, way up a long and sometimes steep gravel road, so you need to be comfortable with that. Only a couple complaints -- the gas fireplace is scary and a real pain to use -- we barely used it. The jets in the hot tub are. The water pressure is not great. And the showers are small. Other than that, it was great.
The goal was to disconnect from the world and reconnect with the family. The cabin and location allowed for that very well. The view was great and the amenities as described.
We really enjoyed our stay at Misty Mountain Cabin. Itâs private and secluded, clean and cozy! It rained on/off while we were there but that didnât stop us! We still hiked all over, ate outside on the huge deck and enjoyed the hot tub!! The cabin was reasonably close to Boone and Blowing Rock so it was easy to get downtown too! We would definitely recommend!!
The property was as advertised. Comfortable and relaxing for everyone. The fireplace worked sparingly but overall the property was comfortable and convenient.
My husband and I did A LOT of research and came across this beautiful place. We came during our spring break with our boys and drove from south Florida in hopes of the cold weather and a relaxing time in which we got. We were blessed with great weather and our boys even got to see âsnowâ flurries for the first time. The next morning the porch was covered enough for the boys to play in it :) We all had a wonderful time and our boys 11 & 12 loved it. I grew up in a very similar setting as child so I truly enjoyed it. We had an issue with the wifi and fireplace when we got there but I called and they were quick to respond and fixed the problem right away. Everything is about 25 minutes away which is not bad. We didnât mind the drive at all, just make sure to have all of your essentials and food before going up the mountain because thereâs no stores around. A 4WD vehicle is a MUST as you will be going up and through hills and dirt roads. Although reviews about getting there are pretty accurate, honestly we enjoyed the ride and the adventure and the scenery as we went different routes since we went to sugar mountain one day and went skiing and had a great time. We also went on the mountain coaster and all enjoyed very much. We then drove to TN about 40 minutes and did the High Country UTV Mountain Tours and that was so much fun! Misty Peak has everything you need and would recommend for anyone to go and enjoy! :)
The only issue was the cleanliness. The bed covers were stained and dirty and the floors were never vacuumed. My son was picking up popcorn and jelly beans...
I would also recommend some electrical changes in the master suite..there is a floor plug too close to the tub and another outlet right behind the faucet. And while we are at it clean or change the shower heads.
Other than that it was a great location, view and overall well built.
Very clean and comfortable! View off of front of cabin was spectacular. Leaves and weather were fantastic! A little too far off the beaten path for us. We will be looking for something in or close to Valle Crusis next year for convenience. Highly recommend this property!!
We have rented several cabins in this area and this is our best experience so far! The kitchen was very well stocked for some simple meals. Views were incredible. While I would recommend 4wd, the access was in good condition and not impossible, as some have been. Wi;; rent this cabin again
Beautiful cabin with a large deck area. We enjoyed relaxing outside, the wonderful views from the deck, and playing the games that came fully stocked with the cabin.
The home is secluded and has wonderful Mountain Viewâs. Itâs a bit off the path but well worth it. Itâs about 20-25 minutes to âdowntownâ Banner Elk and 25 - 30 minutes to Boone.
The home is well kept and clean. We went on a very hot week so the lack of central AC was a little tough with the kids but overall not too bad.
I recommend for families with small kids.
