"A wonderful place with panoramic views of the multi-layered Blue Ridge Mountains and the sounds of silence ......... the rustle of the leaves in the trees, the birds chirping ..... a cup of coffee all to yourself on the deck, early in the morning. Nice to see the occasional rabbit, deer or turkey scamper off as they detect your presence in their world. Haven't enjoyed seeing fire flies light up the dark for many years, brought back memories of long ago. Great place to unplug and relax with family and friends, or just with a good book."

Amy D., New Smyrna Beach, FL "Rest and relaxation in the mountains has been the best trip yet! Thanks so much for letting us share your 'Mountain Majesty' experience." Adrienne V., Edgewater, FL "One word sums it up ... AWESOME! Getting back to nature makes you realize what really matters in life. Thanks for letting us stay in this beautiful home. We really had a GREAT time." Jess P., Spring, Texas "Our first trip to the mountains was fabulous. We will have many memories to share with our families for years to come. We had a blast! Thank you for the great Casa, that we called home." Elena W., Edgewater, FL

"Wow! Words can't express the majestic view of the mountain range we experienced here. Nature at it's finest and God's country in all it's beauty. Thanks for a wonderful visit. Your Mountain Majesty is a place to be proud of for years to come. Can't wait for a return visit, relaxing and watching the sunrise with a great cup of coffee and the magnificent sunsets with a bottle of wine." Tom & Barbara W., Atlanta, GA

"Thank you so much for the hospitality and sharing your beautiful mountain home with me. Loved playing pool and working on the puzzle. Views are awesome, even if it was wet and cloudy! Being in the clouds so high up is really some sight! Loved the drive over to Mt. Mitchell for the day. Can't wait to come back!" Jenny D., Raleigh, NC

"I now see why you call your home 'The Mountain Majesty'. Not only are the views incredible, but part of the theme in the interior of the home, being patriotic with red/white/blue, is cute. Reminds me of the song "Oh Beautiful for Spacious Skies". The beauty in and out of the home is just incredible! I liked the theme of the bedroom I stayed in, "Country Cats", as I'm a cat lover. Neat with your themes throughout the house. Enjoyed watching my all time favorite "Sound of Music" I found from your huge library of DVDs and VHS tapes. Nice on the large screen over the fireplace. Was nice taking day trips to the various sites around your place, but have to say the trip to Mt. Airy and to the Andy Griffith tour was my favorite. Brought back lots of memories from that TV show with Andy, Oppie, Aunt Bea, Goober, etc. My sister was able to stay in touch with "the real world" on the wireless internet and was pleasantly surprised to have a good signal on her cell phone. Can't wait to come again soon! Would recommend The Mountain Majesty to anyone wanting to get away and relax!" Nancy T., Port Orange, FL

"Thank you so much for sharing your cabin with us. We've enjoyed it thoroughly and will tell all of our friends and family about it. The views are spectacular, and the mountain air and the solitude of nature have been wonderful. The star gazing last night was nothing short of amazing. Thanks again!" Rhonda N., Atlanta, GA

"My wife, 3 kids, my parents, and I enjoyed our relaxing stay at your home. Your home is as beautiful as the scenery that surrounds it! You have left nothing out-we especially enjoyed all of the games, DVD's, the pool table, and foosball table. We were able to visit Chimney Rock Park, drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway, visit Mount Mitchell, and the Biltmore House. Thanks for sharing your wonderful home with me and my family - we will never forget it!" Steve B., Albemarle, NC

"Thanks for providing your home as a wonderful family retreat and get away! Your home is as beautiful as the scenery that surrounds it! You have left nothing out -- your home has something for everyone to enjoy. We were able to take in Chimney Rock Park, Lake Lure, Blue Ridge Parkway, Mount Mitchell, and the Biltmore House all in 2 days. My family will remember this forever! Thanks again!" .... Steve & Karen B., 10/01/07 - 10/04/07

"We enjoyed our visit very much. The cabin is incredible. We loved the views -- we even saw wildlife. We enjoyed the vast DVD collection and board games. The kids had a blast in the game room. The fall foliage was spectacular -- so many beautiful colors. Weather was perfect. The highlight of our adventure was a voyage up an unknown peak off the trail. The descent by moonlight thru the briars and streambeds will long be remembered. Our yells can still be heard echoing thru the wilderness. Sorry for scaring the bears away. We hope that they will one day feel safe enough to return."

"We just wanted to let you know what a fantastic time we have had at your "Mountain Majesty"! We couldn't have imagined a better place to celebrate this holiday! Your attention to detail in your home makes it feel like a home away from home. All your brochures and notes helped plan an amazing time here...from visiting Biltmore, climbing Chimney Rock, (and watching the "Last of the Mochicans" the night before :) to tubing in the snow on Christmas Day. We will always remember this beautiful place and look forward to coming back again one day!
Thank you, Thank you. Happy New Year!" John & Lisa K., Satellite Beach, FL 12/22 - 12/26/07

"Several months ago when our family discussed creating a new Christmas time experience, we had no idea the blessing that was bestowed on us when we came across your amazing "Mountain Majesty" home website by chance. After experiencing the loss of our Patriarc this year we were looking for a magical place to renew our spirits and your home has created just that. Our family ties have been strengthened by the serenity of the mountains and the warmth of your home. We will come away from this time together with renewed hearts filled with unforgettable memoriess. Thank you for sharing your amazing home. We'll definitely return. :)" .... The Kavary Family, Satellite Beach, FL 12/22-12/26/2007

"Thank you so much for letting us stay here over the Christmas Holidays. Our family had the best time here. The views are breathtaking!!! The name of the house "The Mountain Majesty" surely fits this house. It was wonderful to just spend time with our family -- playing games, cooking, exploring and just being together. Your house is beautiful. Thank you again." .... The Law Family, 12/26/07 - 01/02/08

"What an amazing time we all had together this week! This was the first time our extended family stayed away for our Holiday. We had a blast! Your home is so beautiful and the vista is incredible. We went hiking at Chimney Rock. The next day we saw the Gingerbread houses at Grove Park Inn. The following day all the children made Gingerbread houses here and ate them on the porch. What fun!!" .... The Heinzes, Raleigh, NC & Charlotte, NC 12/26/07 - 01/02/08

"Thank you for letting us stay in your cabin! We had a GREAT time playing in the snow and spending time with our family. For us kids, this was only the second time seeing snow; it was so fun! Thank you again for the great cabin and wonderful view!" Erin, James, Maddie & The Barksdale Family, Ooltewah, TN ... 01/2008

"Thank you for the stay. You have a beautiful place here. The view is simply breathtaking. Enjoy it as often as you can, with those you love. Thanks again." Melanie Nosal, Elm City, NC ... 01/2008

"It is truly a treasured gift from God, my family and the Vazquez family, who have made their beautiful "Majestic Mountain" home available to others. This vacation for our extended family was to celebrate my 65th birthday on February 1st and Kianna (my youngest granddaughters) 2nd birthday. My husband, daughter, son-in-law and three grandchildren (Kiara, Nathan & Kianna) have so enjoyed your beautiful home! I'm enjoying the quiet solitude where I wrote a letter to my 12 year old granddaughter, Kiara, while gazing at the majestic mountains in their muted, dormant stage. The children woke up the first morning to an icy wonderland and were so excited. They don't see much ice in Florida! We enjoyed visiting Chimney Rock, hiking and riding the elevator there. The children went snow tubing at Moonshine Mountain, which was great fun. I enjoyed going to the authentic, down home bluegrass coffee house, "Old Fort Mt. Music" in Old Fort. We all danced there including Kianna, who really enjoyed it, as did Nathan. We enjoyed driving through the beautiful countryside, visiting the Folk Art Center and going to the "Fiddlin Pig" to eat and hear Bluegrass. We also enjoyed visiting and staying together in your beautiful home! Than you so much!" Kanni & Jim Roeder & the Yee Family, St. Augustine, FL ... 02/2008

"What a marvelous treat your Mountain Majesty was for our family. We prayed for the perfect spot for my mom's 65th birthday celebration get-a-way. She works so hard helping others and so deserves a rest. As we drove up and entered your home, everyone was delighted, it was definitely the perfect present!! We awoke on February 1st (her actual birthday) to a land filled with ice. The trees were so beautiful and as we explored the winter paradise, the mountains began to appear through the clouds. Since we live in Florida, the children were beyond excited to see the ice. We also went on a road trip to Hendersonville to experience snow tubing. We had planned to take road trips everyday, but it was so beautiful here that we stayed a few days just to enjoy the serenity of the mountains. We danced to Bluegrass Music and played many of your games. We found out that our pop is quite a "pool shark". We had great fun counting your roosters. After days of discovering hens in secret hidden places, our final count was 277 roosters. North Carolina is definitely our new favorite state to visit. There are so many wonderful places to visit. We will be back and we will tell all our friends about The Mountain Majesty!! Thank you for your beautiful decorating and thoughtfulness in every detail. Our two year old daughter especially loved the singing bear that was her height. Every night she would go over and say "Good night Grandma, Good night Grandpa" to your figures by the stairs. We loved the family memories that were made here." Love in Jesus, Jeff, Laure, Kiara (12), Nathan (8), and Kianna (2) Yee .... 02/2008

"Wow! What an incredible view to wake up to. We arrived late last night -- when the sun rose this morning, it was breathtaking! Our families have enjoyed getting together -- the kids have loved your hill -- sliding down it all day long -- two 8-year-olds, 7, 5, 4, 2 and 7 months. We took a long walk around the neighborhood and enjoyed the view as well. The house was stocked very well -- kitchen great and lots of pillows in the bedrooms! Thank you for sharing your retreat!" Dammann's, Hayden's & Talmadge's, Decatur, GA ... 02/2008

"We had a lovely time at your cabin over President's Day weekend! The children went on several adventure hikes and we found a great children's museum in Rutherfordton- it was in great shape and looked pretty new (and open on Sunday). It was a really nice children's museum. Thank you for the lovely stay!" Steve, Lucy, Rob and Catherine Cain, Fayetteville, NC ... 02/2008

"We arrived on a foggy, foggy Friday evening. The misty morning brought magical views that only got better as the fog burned off. Our stay at the Majesty was relaxing and everything we could imagine. My particular favorite part were all the ladybugs. There are a ton of ladybugs. My boys found a hunting dog in the woods that we dropped off at the Animal Control office. Great house, great vibe. A weekend we will remember for a long time." Gratefully yours, Lisa Passarini, Jason, Jordan, Alex & Michael, Mt. Pleasant, SC ... 02/2008

"We enjoyed The Mountain Majesty for our family reunion. Nana and Papa Dayton came from The Villages, FL. David Dayton came from New Point News, VA. Mary Dayton Barry, Kevin Barry, Noelle and Lindsey from Cincinnati, OH and Tracy, Michael and Spencer Dayton from Tampa, FL. We went hiking and enjoyed viewing the mountains. Thanks so much for sharing your home with us! I am so glad we found this on the Internet! My only advice to future renters would be to stay longer so you can enjoy all the beautiful scenery. We went to Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, great little Children's Museum in Rutherfordton and drove to Mt. Mitchell. We hiked the Linville Falls and spent time along the Blue Ridge Parkway. Your mountains and area are just beautiful! The home itself was great and we appreciated all the attention to detail. I really wish we had longer. Your home is truly a retreat." Barrys and Daytons, from Florida and Ohio, 03/2008

"This was the fourth year we have had a family reunion with our son and his family and this was definitely the most beautiful, well-equipped homes we have stayed in. The cabin had absolutely everything we needed and the view was amazing!!! Thank you for sharing your home with us." Skip & Ellin Reitmeier, Mt. Pleasant, SC, 03/2008

"Thank you so much for this stay. It was way above our expectations. The cleanliness, all the utensils you could ever need. I'll be back in July with my motorcycle friends. I'm sure they will be as pleasantly surprised as Barbara and I were." Barbara Brown & Jon Christensen, 04/2008

"Awesome home! Very well appointed and equipped. Your home served as an excellent base camp for us as we day-tripped around Western North Carolina -- Biltmore, Asheville, gem mining, Chimney Rock, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Grandfather Mountain . . . . . ! This is definitely on our short list of do again vacations and this cabin was the icing on the cake." The Vovosel Family -- Joe, Teresa & Jon Nobert, 04/2008

"This has been my 47th birthday weekend and I can't think of a more beautiful and inspiring place to be than overlooking the mountains from your beautiful cabin! Our ages range from 16 to 76 and we've all had something wonderful to experience here. Down watching videos, playing Yantzee, watching the Masters Golf Tournament, touring South Mountain State Park, or just sleeping in your comfy beds ... it has been great! Thanks for sharing your home with us: Kenton & Kelli Hunt, Haley Hunt, Becky Corn and Bill & Joyce Oglesby. It's been a blessing!" Kelli Hunt, 04/2008 "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills. Where does my help come from? From the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth." Psalms 121, 1-2

"The Flashy Floozies (a Red Hat group from Cumming, GA), were here for our semi-annual girls weekend 'escape'! :) Driving up the winding road and pulling into the driveway, we were awe struck before we even entered the house. We were hooked. It rained all day Saturday -- but we didn't care. We were here and we just did our best to fill the trash cans with wine and beer bottles. :) Thank you so very much for sharing your lovely home with us. We hope to come back again to share the good time and many laughs we had. Everything about this lovely home is fan-tab-u-lous! We will recommend your lovely home to anyone planning a trip to the area!!!" The Flashy Floozies (Ann) .... "Wow, what a GREAT weekend!! Best place we've escaped to so far!" Jeri .... "Beautiful decor! Everything is so well appointed. I need your decorator!" Donna ... "Thank you for sharing your beautiful piece of heaven with us. I want to come back and be your 'live-in maid'". Donna ... "What a beautiful place! Thank you so much for sharing." Katy, 04/2008
