The house is beautiful. It was great that we each had a king bed. Our view was so beautiful and Carolina cabin rentals are definitely top notch!

What a view! Perfect home, finding four king beds in one house is a gem for the Boone area. House was great, enjoyed the game room, both porches, plenty of room for parking! Will return & recommended.

This house sits on top of the mountain range and has beautiful views from the large back deck. The house has ample room with everything needed in the kitchen. The dinner plates need updating as many are cracked and terribly mismatched of different types of plates
A great place to stay.

I felt like I was in someone's home and that I was an honored guest. The beds were comfortable, the spaces were great- the view from the deck, the dining room table and the living room were just gorgeous. There was enough furniture to match the bedrooms. The outdoor furniture was so very comfortable, and it was great how the morning sun came through (I had a great experience watching the sunrise). My soul was tired when I arrived, and it was restored before I left. I can't think of anything negative to say. I would definitely return.
A wonderful mountain escape
by Melody

This home is a wonderful example of comfort and quiet. It's beautiful and clean with spectacular views. The kitchen is well-appointed and has some really nice cookware. The host was responsive, and we greatly enjoyed the comfort of the living room furniture as well as the beds. There were 7 of us, but 3 family units, so the space and arrangement of bedrooms and bathrooms was perfect for us. We also appreciated being able to bring our 3 little dogs to enjoy the trip with us. This was a wonderful place to stay!
Can't Beat The View

This was not the first time renting from Carolina Cabins but, the first time to Four Diamond Escape. I will say the house does not look that far up the mountain but, it is...from the bottom of the mountain entrance to the house is 3.5 miles. While it might take a minute to get there, the view from the deck is incredible. We were lucky that most of the days were all sunny skies where you can see for miles. We were a family of four and one of my sons brought his telescope and was loving the views. The house was spacious with large bedrooms, we took advantage of all the amenities hot tub & game room with pool table. The house is located not from from attractions....20 minutes to Alpine Coaster, 30 minutes to Grandfather Mountain and 40 minutes to Tweetsie Railroad. I would stay here again and also, recommend family & friends.

Almost Heaven
by Gail
5/5
We loved every minute of our 3- week stay. The kitchen was well- equipped for the many meals we prepared. The deck was divine - spent lots of time enjoying the view. Woke most mornings to see the incredible sunrises and just up the road in front of the house, there's a clearing to see spectacular sunsets. Also amazing stargazing !
Great roads to walk our very happy pup and meet neighbors. Just 2 suggestions: better lighting in the primary bedroom and a welcome book with instructions for things like the ac/heat, tv and fireplace would be helpful.
Incredible View
by Kristyn
5/5
This house is a great place to get away and disconnect from every day life. We stayed for 11 days, and honestly wished we could have stayed longer.
When looking for a house in the mountains we had three main criteria which were a great view, pet friendly, and king beds with enough bathrooms. This house met everything we wanted and more.
The kitchen was fully stocked which was great. We grilled and cooked a lot so we were happy to have all of the cookware and utensils that we needed.
Hottub worked great and was regulated by staff halfway through our trip. Carolina Cabin Rentals was fantastic. We had a small issue with the firepit (operator error, nothing was wrong with it) and they came out on the 4th of July to help us, which was very unexpected. Over the weekend there was a wreck that took out power for the entire mountain. This caused many shortages etc, one being the refridgerator in the house. We woke up to it not working on Sunday morning and CCR brought us a temporary refridgerator that day to last us the remainder of our stay. While not ideal, since it had to be placed in the dining area instead of the kitchen, we were just thankful to have it and not have to leave the property early. Thank you to Carolina Cabin Rentals for being so diligent. We will without a doubt use them again.
The interior is more rustic, so if you are looking for modern or luxurious you might not love it, but the furniture and beds were all comfortable. We were there to hike and visit wineries so it was perfect for us. Most of our time while at the house was on the back deck, as the view truly is spectacular. You couldn't really ask for a better one. I wish we were still there....

WHAT A VIEW, AMAZING!!!! Hot tub was fantastic and VERY CLEAN! Loved all of the neighborhood wildlife. Only complaints—the beds had pads on them that were very uncomfortable, but we just took it off the bed and it was fine. Also, the TV in the living room was too big…made my neck hurt. Other than this, we had a wonderful time

Great cabin in the high country
by Richard

We had an amazing week full of snow at the cabin. Getting down the mountain was exciting after the snowfall but was passable with tire chains and 4wd. The cabin is close to Sugar and Beech Mountains making winter sports easily assessable.
Amazing views and lovely well equipped home!

The only advise I would give is....Make sure you listen and adhere to their recommendations on travel during winter months to this house. The view is great for a reason, it's up high! :-)

Excellent Cabin
by Kate
5/5
My mom, sister, best friend and I thoroughly enjoyed out girls' weekend getaway. There is plenty of space and we enjoyed each having our own room and king sized bed. We loved being so high up on the mountain and enjoyed mountain views on both sides. We hiked Otter Falls, which was so fun! There was a storm that rolled in one afternoon and lasted until the following afternoon that that intense winds. The hot tub is a great feature that we took advantage of each evening. We talked about coming back to this cabin again next year for our annual girls' weekend and I want to book it for my family as well!!! Overall, I highly recommend this cabin!
Can't beat this view!
by Patti
5/5
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our 4-day stay at the cabin. The ride up the mountain is steep and winding and a bit nerve-wracking for us flat land dwellers, especially in the rain and fog. Once we arrived, we stayed put until time to go home. But we had brought all of the food and provisions we needed and enjoyed some family time together. The biggest treat was when the rain turned to snow, giving us the snowy week-end we had hoped for. Once the initial fog cleared, the sunrises and sunsets over the mountains were fantastic. We were disappointed that internet service was out the entire time, and cell service was spotty, but that's expected in the mountains. The furnishings are showing wear, and the floors are very squeaky so you hear every move made on all three floors. That was an issue for us because we were trying to be quiet during our four- month-old's naps. These are minor issues, and we would definitely stay again.
Four Diamond Escape
by Jaime
5/5
We really enjoyed our stay and the place was great. The only recommendation is that the bushes on the side of the house need trimmed. It was difficult walking around the side of the house or leaving the deck from the basement due to the growth over the stairs and walkway. Easy fix. Wonderful place. In fact we were in town to look at properties to purchase for our own and we commented a few times that we would love a place like Four Diamond Escape.
Comfortable stay with fantastic mountain-top view and marvelous deck furniture
by Melvin
5/5
When we first arrived, we noticed a few things that were showing a little wear and tear, but many of these items will probably be addressed in a Spring refresh. None were sufficient to dampen our enjoyment of the house in any way.
The premier attribute for us was the well furnished upper deck and the fantastic view. This was definitely one of the best equipped decks we have encountered, making it a real pleasure to lounge in the mountain air and take in the majestic vista. Some of the furniture showed a little end-of-season wear, but it should be easy to refurbish.
The indoor furnishings were equally comfortable. The TV reception was excellent, and the wi-fi signal was strong and consistent, as was our AT&T based cellphone reception. All of the kitchen appliances worked flawlessly, and there were plenty of utensils, dishes, and pots and pans for our needs. Naturally, the pool table was a nice wind-down diversion at the end of the day.
As there was just the two of us, we only used the main floor master bedroom, but the bed was very comfy, the linens were clean, the room was very spacious with plenty of closets and drawers, and the bathroom was roomy and in excellent shape.
All in all, the house was very clean when we arrived. We had very little need to interact with the folks at Carolina Cabins, but what we did have was attentive and professional.
We rarely rent the same place more than once because we enjoy the novelty of diversity, but we are seriously considering this house for future visits to the area.
Amazing!

We were a group of 8 ppl staying there. It was amazing, super cozy and comfortable, all the details that the place has are amazing.
The only thing was that we were super exited to use the hot tub and it wasn't working, also we bought wood for the fire pit and it came to be a propane fire pit so don't buy any wood haha...
They respond super fast to any concerns/requests that you have and it was just great. Would recommend for everybody to take this place and have a relaxing and pleasant vacation.

We absolutely had the best time here. We are typically go go go people, but Honestly we really didn't do much because our family was just so content staying at this beautiful home. Plenty to keep my family satisfied with just being together. We brought games and of course the hot tub and pool table kept everyone busy.

Beautiful home with beautiful views. Everything was provided that you could even think of. The master bathroom was amazing! Gas fire pit was great. Would stay again when in the area.
The only thing was the temperature of the hot tub. The water was too cold to stay in. But other than that, no complaints what so ever. If only Mother Nature had been so accommodating.
