   We liked the unit, particularly with the great view toward Grandfather and the southern exposure this time of year. We will ask for this condo the next time we come to Echota.

   We enjoyed our stay. Had an excellent view. Lodge was secluded and quiet - got plenty of R & R. Property was well-maintained and there were no surprises except for the TV being dated (no-internet based TV). Overall, stay was unforgettable and enjoyable! Thank you!

   It would be nice if the HO would upgrade from a Queen Bed to a King Bed. All other One Bedroom Cabins and Condos we rent always have a King Bed.

   Wonderful condo with beautiful views. We have rented several times through Foscoe and the entire process was so easy and pleasant. Will be visiting again in the future!

   1) While the view of Grandfather Mountain is currently great, unless the trees are topped, the view will be gone in a few years. 2) The outdoor furniture is functional for eating; but, very uncomfortable for sitting and relaxing. We would likely not stay at this unit again unless there are 2 comfortable outdoor chairs. 3) We apologize (again) for getting our check out date wrong. Perhaps, having an automatic text message sent out to each renter, the night before and the morning of the required check out date (along with the checkout time) could be incorporated into your system. Overall, all of our stays at Echota over the past several years have been wonderful and we hope to come back up soon. Sam and Babs Jones.

   I was very impressed with everything about our stay. On Thursday night/Friday, there were 7+ inches of snow; however, the staff did a great job of making the roads into and out of the resort passable. This was greatly appreciated as it allowed our getaway to continue without interruption. Thank you for a wonderful vacation for our family. You definitely have a customer for life.

   We thoroughly enjoyed out stay. This property has the absolute best view of Grandfather Mountain! It was perfect for 2 people. The only thing I wish it had was a better mattress. We put a mattress topper on top of the mattress topper it already had. Other than that, absolutely wonderful!

   We absolutely LOVED the condo and our time spent there. This is a beautiful unit with everything (and more) than we expected. One note - the internet is not password protected, although the instructions were given WITH a password. Just thought you might want to check? It was quite slow at times, so maybe others were using it? Thank you for everything...we can't wait to come back! Julie Alam

   We really liked this unit, in fact we think we might have gotten the best unit! However there were a few things that I would like to point out. 1) the keys didn't slide easily into the keyhole. It was always a struggle. 2) The glassware consisted of 2 wine glasses, 3 tall water glasses and maybe 10 or 15 coffee cups. I would have liked to have had highball glasses, or smaller glasses appropriate for a cocktail. 3) The only mirror was in the bathroom, and it wasn't full length. I would have really appreciated a full length mirror. The actual property is really nice, and I do have a complaint that I'm not sure how you would resolve. But we went to both of the pools...indoor and out...and on each visit there was a large group of @15 people including little kids. The hot tub never became available because the large group rotated their adults and kids. We would have liked to have a turn, however it seemed awkward to voice that to the groups. I guess you can't expect everyone to be gracious, and maybe we should have spoken up. We didn't realize that the kids wouldn't be in school, so our mistake in booking too early in August. But an "adults only" pool day afternoon would have been nice. That was the main drawback of the property....kids galore in the pool areas.

   As other people have noted, the bed is way too firm. I did notice a foam topper in the closet but I did not want to have to unmake the bed, put on the topper and then remake the bed. Also, I would strongly suggest the owners invest in a secure modem for secure wireless internet. Even on vacation, most travelers nowadays will need or want to do something online that requires a secure internet connection (banking, emails, etc) and the cost is nominal to provide this extra feature. I needed to log in to some password protected sites while I was there and was not able to. I would not have been able to stay longer than 2 nights because of this. I would also make sure that sheets for the sofa bed are kept in the condo. I needed some and did not have any the first night. Even if a traveler does not need them, it will not hurt to have then available in a closet or drawer.

   My stay was delightful! My unit offered the privacy and seclusion I desired. I took the opportunity to explore all the grounds and each area offered just a little something different. I was interested in returning next summer to the Chalakee area again in a 2 BR but was disappointed to hear the new units on Falcon Trc are not available for rental. Please let me know if that changes.Thank you!!

   Loved the property it was an amazing view , loved the condo and location , loved the pool area. Only issue was the bed was super firm - too firm for us- an overlay pad would be good if offered for those who do not do well with a firm mattress.

   I absolutely loved our stay! The view and condo was even better than the pictures portrayed. I really enjoyed sitting on the balcony overlooking the views of the mountains and reading a book. The bed was a little too hard for my liking and the couch wasn't my favorite but the greatness of everything else overshadowed that. We would definitely stay at this property again.

   Having a reading light in the LR that was operating at the time of our stay would have made relaxing in the evenings a bit better. Also a small bench by the front door for taking off shoes and coats would have been a great addition. Other than that the condo & development met all of our expectations!

   We had a fantastic weekend at the property! Loved the views, the balcony and grill. - One suggestion would be to get better steak/cutting knives. The ones in the kitchen felt somewhat unsteady and were difficult to use.

   Wonderful condo and complex. Already gave your company name to a co-worker who seemed interested in a future stay. When I come back to the Boone area, will certainly start my search with your company first. Thank you for the May special -- stay 3 get 1 night free. It and the off season rate sure sold me. Thank you for a wonderful vacation experience!

   We loved the condo. Would recommend a more comfortable sofa (it felt like a futon). Also , maybe a (narrow) sofa table behind the sofa with a lamp for reading. We're over 65 and love to read in the evening but need good reading light. Overall, it was very pleasant and we hope to return. The entire staff was professional, attentive, polite, and made our stay most enjoyable.
