Finally... A place that exceeded my expectations!
Our family of 5 (furbaby too) travels alot and this place by far, exceeded our expectations! I'm obsessed with cleanliness and the home was spotless from top to bottom! Beds were extremely comfortable with fresh smelling bedsheets and room darkening shutters that left you soundly sleeping in. (Heavenly for a mom of 3)! Location was perfect, with a quick drive down the mountain into the heart of town. Highly recommend 4-wheel drive if there's even a slight chance of snow. The house was fully stocked and Stacey was quick to respond if needed. We were in NO rush to leave and were even granted a late check out. 😊 Grateful for the hospitality. We will most definitely be back.

The home was as advertised. As stated, the two baths in the master require entry into the master. The other two bedrooms on the first level share a hall bath. Great views from the property and a very good location to access Boone. Dining table has some chairs in disrepair and not sturdy. Other furniture in nice condition. Kitchen well equipped.

Family week (no kids)
Our family week at “Above It All” was great. The house was very well appointed, plenty of room. The hot tub was very enjoyable especially with those views. Location was very convenient. We loved the fire pit and thoroughly enjoyed it in the cool evenings. The screened porch and the glassed in porch with sliding windows and doors allowed us to get fresh air through the living area during cooler parts of the day. The kitchen had everything we needed. Great house. Fabulous views. Definitely going back.

It was a busy week and we enjoyed spreading out in the large house. We cooked numerous meals at home and the kitchen is well stocked. The teenagers loved the basement area and space for themselves, (as did the adults!) Nice fenced area for our furry friend.

Beautiful View, Nice House
The house was perfect for our girls weekend. The view did not disappointed. Bedrooms had nice beds, pillows and linens. Kitchen was adequately stocked with utensils. Bring extra ice because icemaker couldn't keep up. Gathering areas were nicely arranged. Used the hot tub, but it didn't get very hot. Wanted to use the outdoor fire pit, but there was no gas tank provided which was disappointing. Would be nice if there was soap for the shower, but otherwise bathrooms were good. Property Mgmt communication was very nice and helpful. Overall nice place and would use again.

The property was amazing. Everything was very clean and comfortable. The management company were sticklers for some things such as only three cars despite five beds and one roll toilet paper for each bathroom only. I suppose this is understandable as it is a college town. We definitely enjoyed our stay and would come back.

Great property, awesome location, mostly well equipped but they need a new cleaning crew! 4 wheel dr
We arrived late due to our 15 year old daughter being hospitalized several days prior to our trip (Christmas) we crashed right away being that we didn’t get in until about 1:30am, my brother in law and his wife arrived at 6pm but couldn’t get up the last section of the mountain road, (they didn’t heed my instructions about 4wheel drive) the next morning the cleanliness or lack there of was extremely apparent. We went down to get BIL And popped into Walmart and picked up some extra cleaning supplies (I’d already packed dish soap, trash bags, toilet tissue and other basics based on the info listed) as everything had to be cleaned before use and of course after so cooking a simple meal took twice as long, I wished by day three or four I had just washed everything day one but O’well. We weren’t able to use the hot tub because some one apparently put soap or bath bubbles or something in it, so that was sad. The soaking tub was nice but again it needed to be dusted out and scrubbed before use so while not the end of the world was definitely a little frustrating when you’re goal on vacation is to relax mostly. The baseboards, cabinets and floors were not clean, everything had a layer of dust, dirt, sticky spots toilets all had scum ring there were clothes left in two dressers and I washed bedding bc 🤷🏼‍♀️and while I do understand that the cleaning fee is to clean when we leave someone should have stopped in to spruce up the house if it hadn’t been rented in awhile. We always get VRBO houses because with a family of 5-7 who honestly don’t really enjoy eating out having a full kitchen is really handy, other then the lack of proper cleaning my only other comment would be that for a house that sleeps as many people as this one does you would think they would provide pots and pans large enough to cook for a large group, I totally made due and luckily brought my crockpot and a few other necessities so that wasn’t a big deal and I wouldn’t let that prevent me from returning I would just be more prepared next time. We loved the set up and location it truly is a beautiful home and the view is amazing!!! The location is wonderful so close to everything we needed/wanted to do. We had a really great time in BOONE and surrounding areas, had there been a toilet plunger and the house been CLEANED prior to arrival we never would’ve had to go to Walmart the info provided was spot on and I was thankful I was able to prepare in advance. New cleaning crew = 5 stars!

Above it all!!!
Amazing! Awesome! fall short of describing the view. The home is well appointed and comfortable. Our family enjoyed the gas logs, firepit, pool table, hot tub and ice maker. Hey, we even feed the birds with the birdseed provided!. No other homes are really close by and so there is a comfortable privacy. The NC state flag light, timeless CHristmas tree and beautiful hardwood floors are nice touches. The twinkling lights of Boone at night are mesmerizing. Just cannot say enough good things about the "feel" of the home. All of us really want to return. Highly recommend.
