What Guests Are Saying
“Very thoughtfully decorated, comfortable space. Perfect place for hiking weekend in the mountains.”
“The place was better than expected and the morning sunrise are amazing”
“The place was better than expected and the morning sunrise are amazing”
“It is extremely difficult to summarize how amazing this stay was. For starters, I selected this place to surprise my wonderful lady who I have been with for ten years. When we arrived, she fell in love with it! She was amazed by the stunning view on the balcony, the decor, and the cleaning staff was even accommodating in making a couple of signs for her to welcome her to the stay! These people absolutely went above and beyond in making sure that we loved everything about the place. The place was huge and had various amenities such as a washer and dryer, pool table, an outdoor fire, a wonderful balcony, and so much more! The stars at night with wine and slow jams were especially stellar as we ended our anniversary night. I wish I could go on and on, but I'll just say one more thing. This place has tons of room for a great outing with friends or family. If you need a remarkable place that will make your night and day, go to the host, Sage, for the truly unique stay!”
“The views are beautiful and the home was practically new with nice furniture and bedding. The added coffee and creamers on the coffee bar were nice. The soaps, lotion and shampoo and conditioners (full size) were very nice smelling and made it feel like an upscale addition, a nice touch. Our stay was very comfortable. I recommend getting some groceries before getting to the home, the trip to the town over is not far about 10-15 minutes. We ate at few of the restaurants in downtown Saluda, Wakey Monkey for breakfast and K's NY Pizza for lunch, they were both very quaint and really good. The pool table was fun and the porches on the home really give you such a peaceful feeling. Overall the house was really well laid out and quiet. One of the only downsides: I would recommend if you usually sleep with a fan, bring a small fan with you because there are no ceiling fans, and we find it hard to sleep when the house is too quiet and still. Very peaceful neighborhood.”
“Absolutely loved our stay! I booked this place hoping to give my friends a cozy, home-away-from-home experience for my birthday, and it was perfect. The space was warm, inviting, and the morning view was truly breathtaking. We enjoyed every moment and honestly didn't want to leave. The only minor issue was that the GPS directed us to the wrong house at first, which made finding it a little tricky, but we were able to find it Overall, such an amazing experience and we'd definitely come back!”
“Our stay was absolutely amazing! The location couldn’t have been better — convenient, beautiful, and exactly what we were hoping for. The listing was 100% accurate and matched the description perfectly, which made everything stress-free from the start. Check-in was incredibly easy, and communication throughout our stay was prompt, clear, and helpful. It’s always such a relief when everything goes smoothly, and this place truly delivered. We loved every minute and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend to anyone considering booking!”
