You'll be talking about the front porch if you stay here during the spring, summer, or fall (maybe winter, too!). It was awesome to have breakfast, lunch, and dinner outside, even when the dew was still set or a downpour was ongoing. Breakfast with bunnies, and dinner with deer. Plenty of song birds serenading us throughout the day (and even some great horned owls at night). Lots of common spaces for various concurrent activities as we wound down each day.We used our stay at the house as a jumping-off place for many adventures on and around New River -- hikes, "walks", zip lines, biking, and rafting. It is not super-close to the northern areas of the park (zip lines, biking, and rafting), but with just a scenic drive over the mountain, we got to Fayetteville easily. We also had many activities within 20 a minute drive.The kitchen is easy to use, and we had just about everything we needed to cook meals each night.We found the downstairs bathroom to be a bit congested in our multi-family get-together. However, we expected that it would be congested, as it is apparent we were staying in what was a single-family home; not a big deal. As is the case for any single-family home being used as a vacation rental that I've ever stayed in, there are not enough towel bars. Unlike towel bars, we had plenty of place settings and places to sit (at least outside) for everyone.Host was easy to communicate with and genuine. You really are staying in someone else's home here!
