Our Christmas Vacation In the Mountains
We had a wonderful time in your home! We actually got snow! We ended up having to pull my moms car and my friends van up the mountain with our Jeep Rubicon! It was very interesting as it was a mix of sleet and snow! It did a great job, I must say! ANYWAY...I do believe that if you rent this place in the winter then you will definitely need a 4 WD!! The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean! The view was beautiful! We saw deer trek through the driveway! The pluses about this place were: The scenery, the privacy, the cleanliness, well stocked with toilet paper, paper towels, dishes for the most part, dish washing soap, the pool table, and the jacuzzis. It had a large selection of DVD's and VCR tapes. The negatives were: IT was loud! It took us a while to get used to the fact that when we were standing in the kitchen and heard something like a bowling ball rolling above, it was only the kids playing and nothing was going to fall on our heads! If you wanted to take a nap during the day, then you could hear the kids playing upstairs or even the adults playing board games at the table in the dining room. This was only a slight problem for us! We had to go to the Family Dollar store at the bottom of the hill to buy a large enough stock pot and skillet to feed our crew spaghetti as we had 6 big guys with us! There was a large pot but waay to big for spaghetti..more for crab legs or something. That wasn't a big problem either. There were alot of games but they were older ones and we couldn't play alot due to missing pieces so you may want to bring your own, like we did do to someone else's comment before we rented it. Just mentioning the little things that you may not think of. We also had to change about 4 light bulbs..which the bulbs were there for us! One last thing was that there isn't much of a flat ground around the house. We had to be very careful with the little ones when they were running around..especially sleigh riding so that they wouldn't fly over the hill. It had huge boulders around the driveway that if people sat on made great pics! Overall, this vacation was very memorable and relaxing and the house is absolutely beautiful! I would definitely rent again! Oh and it is WAY to big in my opinion for a romantic getaway! lol Thanks again for allowing us to rent your home and may you have a wonderful New Year!
