• Bad Property

  1/5

  Property is 30 ft off the rd with one little heater for the whole place. Don't recommend.

  Hi Dennis, thanks for taking the time to review your stay. After reading your feedback, the homeowner wanted to share the following:
  We have a mini split heating system in the dining area, which is capable of heating the entire unit. Also, there is a large electric heating fireplace in the living room, another electric heating fireplace in the master bedroom, and a smaller electric heating fireplace in the second bedroom. All heating sources are shown in the listing photos.
  Thank you for letting us know about your stay.

• Dirty and Bug Infested

  1/5

  I would give this 0 stars if I could and attach all the pictures of the bugs (alive and dead) discovered during our short stay here. The bathtub was stained and there were pink stains around the drains and corners of the tub. It’s as if I was vacant for months with no upkeep. I reached out to both the personal contact given and Evolve and received no response! I do not recommend and currently trying to get money back. Hotels are only a couple miles from the house and similar in price so I would highly recommend taking that option instead.

  Small cozy cottage just right for two people and 1 dog. Location was convenient to Boone. Basic amenities.

• Pros and Cons of Cottage in Boone

  4/5

  We spent 2 nights in this cottage which is at a great location to visit Boone. It was clean and appeared to have been renovated in the past year. The water has a terrible odor, so we bought bottled water for drinking. The temperatures at night dipped into 20s, but each room had a heat source that could be regulated to keep warm. The bathroom is tiny, but we managed. All windows had blinds for opening and closing , but suggest the owner put up curtains over windows at front and back doors to provide a greater sense of privacy and security for those staying there. We thought the daily rental fee was very reasonable, but once cleaning fees, taxes, and VRBO service fees were added, we calculated we could have stayed in a hotel for less money.

• Most comfortable bed!

  4/5

  My daughter and I wanted a unique experience in Boone the weekend of the App State open house. We enjoyed the space but weren't there much. The water smelt like sulfur and was a big turn off for my daughter. We would have loved written directions on how to operate the heaters and the TV but managed.
