Stunning Views!!!

The photos don’t do justice to the beautiful views and charm of this gorgeous house. When you step on the stone patio of the house you will have the most beautiful views of the North Carolina mountains. The house itself is gorgeous. The owners have kept the original 1940s furniture, art and architecture. The house welcomes you to a different era when families used to spend hours together in the play room, dining room and living room. It was the perfect hide away during the 2020 pandemic. The location is also fantastic. 5 minutes to the beautiful town of Blowing Rock. Great restaurants and grocery stores nearby. The owner was very accommodating with our requests and our communication was excellent. I would love to go back to this gem of a house.”

Just as before, our stay at Above All was excellent! The views are incredible and the house is so clean and provides all the necessary amenities and linens. We also loved the new rugs! We thank the owners for all they do to make their property pleasant to visit. We look forward to returning! ”

Amazing views!

We loved our stay at this home and this beautiful part of the country! We hope to return... among the many great things, having a glass of coffee/wine on the back porch with the majestic view is the ultimate! Great communications with the owner were much appreciated.”
