• Home is just as pictured

  4/5

  Our stay was fine. The home was clean, well maintained and was represented well in the pictures. We didn't have any problems with the home really. Dryer downstairs didn't dry, but we just used the upstairs one. There is no yard to speak of, which I was concerned about seeing as we did have dogs with us. If a yard is something you wish to have, look to another property. Internet is bad, but you're in the mountains, so I guess that should be expected. We were told if you didn't have Verizon, your phones would have a tough time of it. TVs streamed just fine, but phones not so much. There is also not a place to have your whole group gather together to eat or play games. We did have a big group and it was in the winter. The biggest pain in the butt is how you are expected to deal with your trash. You have to drive your trash to the resort's compacter, which is not just a block or two away. It is like a 10-minute drive from the house. There are no bins on the property to store your trash until you want to make that drive either. This may seem petty, but just be aware of this if you rent the home.

• Holiday Getaway

  5/5

  The home was a perfect fit for my family and the separate kitchens was great for the thanksgiving holiday for preparing food. We loved the deck and the view. Also enjoyed the fireplace inside. It was spacious and had plenty of bathrooms. Also enjoyed the short drive to Highland NC and the mountain coaster.

• We had a great time.

  The house is exactly as advertised if you read the reviews. There were a couple of items that needed to be fixed but nothing dangerous (a broken post on the porch on the driveway side and the vent in the kitchen). The bedroom doors closed but were easily opened -sometimes just by opening an outside door, but overall we enjoyed our stay. The outside porch with the fire pit was a huge hit and the view was terrific. We enjoyed not having to share just 1 or 2 bathrooms. There is not a inside area large enough for everyone to really gather but we made due and may be back next year!

  Manager's Response:

  From the owner: "Hi Michele! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. I'm sorry about the vent cover and the doors need adjustment. These were fixed after you left. I hope we'll see you again soon!"

• Quite an adventure

  5/5

  We planned a trip to Sky Valley for MLK weekend- 4 adults and 6 kids total. The house has plenty of bedroom space. The house has two fully equipped kitchens. It is a great house and awesome location. I reached out to Luke right away to let him know about 2 super minor issues that we wanted him to be aware of. He was great and so helpful. We went to Scaly Mountain and The Dillard House on Saturday. We had a blast snow tubing and ice skating and it was lovely. Then we got snowed in! The driveway is lower than the road and we were trapped. Luke was so nice, I called him because my daughter had an allergic reaction and needed benadryl. He called around to the neighbors to help us. Later, he told us not to worry about extending our stay because we were stuck! The tow trucks couldn't get to us but a wonderful senior adult gentleman helped us dig our vehicles out of the ice and snow on Tuesday so we could finally go home. We almost ran out of food, but the power never went off! The trip was memorable for sure. Thanks Luke for answering my crazy calls and being so helpful. It was a great house for sure- lots of room!

• Cabin on the rock

  4/5

  We arrived on July 7th at approximately 3:45pm, we found the cabin unlocked and cabin dirty, beds linens all balled up on beds, and dirty towels on bathroom floors. Cleaning people had not shown up. We called Luke from Evolve and he had a cleaning person there immediately. We did not get into our rental property until after 7pm. The cabin was nice, owner has way too much stuff, jammed into upstairs kitchen cabinets, we had no place to store our stuff. We had a lot of family members in other cabins at Sky Valley and a map of the area would have helped, we had a great time visiting with each other. Great mini vacation.
