10/10
Our family of 4 (mom, dad, two teens 14-15) had a great stay at the "Birdsnest". The mountain views were great and a wonderful backdrop for breakfast, lunch or dinner and sitting in the hot tub.Everything went smoothly overall, no major complaints. Day 1, the fridge wasn't that cold, but after about 24hrs at the coldest setting, it had cooled down properly. The house was generally clean, however it felt as if the floors could have used a bit more attention in the living room, specifically the area rug in front of the couch.The furniture was comfortable, as were the beds. The kids shared the loft area, but did not use the pull out couch up there, instead sharing the queen bed. The king bed in the master was comfortable. Hot water was sufficient for 4 showers after a day of activities. We went hiking at Tsali trails and paddleboarded in Lake Fontana. We rented tubes and went tubing on Deep Creek. We also ziplined, rafted, and rented "duckies" a the Nantahala Outdoor Center (NOC). We had a great time as family without the distraction of WiFi (there is none) and extremely limited cell service (1 bar on AT&T - calls and texts could be made, but sending pictures or using data was very slow and spotty.)We spent about 4 of our evenings after dinner building the 999 piece puzzle - there is 1 piece missing!Note - the road/driveway up to the house is STEEP. If you're going there at a time that might see snow/ice, you need 4-wheel drive and maybe even chains.
