A well maintained home with the owners providing a well stocked and very clean home. Lara the property manager is outstanding and responds lightning fast to any question. Would certainly recommend this property
This our 3rd or 4th visit to Birch Lane and it truly feels like home. We love having 2 decks to enjoy, one open and one covered. The layout of a bedroom and bath downstairs and then the upstairs layout is open and spacious. A/C units in all of the rooms is great especially for the few summer evenings that get warmer. Communication with the host is Excellent! Unit is always very clean. We bring our own blankets which is just for those that get chilly when sleeping. We truly are so thankful to have this property to stay in!!
This was a nice cabin in Linville Land Harbor.
Pros:
-excellent neighborhood and amenities
-great, fast communication from management
-very clean cabin
-good location in Land Harbor with lovely trees, good parking, and easy access
-beautiful area with lots of trees and birds
-quiet
Cons:
-large front deck has no umbrellas/shade and is hot during the day
-upstairs bathroom is tight with short ceilings/doors (although, they did a great job utilizing the available space--just might be a problem if you're tall)
-stairs to the upstairs bedrooms and bath are pretty steep (one bedroom and bath are downstairs)
Good to know:
-pool is open 10-5 or 10-6 in the summer with lap swim hours earlier
-there is parking for two cars
-the internet was reliable but not as fast as we're used to
-there is cable TV which worked well
-a/c are window units (worked fine for us in June)
-cell phone coverage is spotty (Verizon phone--not unusual in the mountains)
Overall, we would definitely stay here again and enjoyed our visit.
House was very cozy and well-suited for a family of 3 and one dog. Beds were comfortable and house was clean. The only thing I noticed was a weird stain on one of the bedroom floors upstairs, but it was out of the way of foot traffic and easily avoided. The location was great - close to Sugar Mountain for skiing and grocery stores. We really enjoyed our stay at this property and will likely stay again if available! Thanks for a great stay in the mountains!
Great stay for family of 6. We skied during the day, relaxed during the evening. Kitchen was well equipped for family meals and communication with owners was very timely. Would stay again.
Loved our time spending Thanksgiving with family and friends in this beautiful location. It was perfect for our family in every way. Would love to make it an annual tradition. The neighborhood was was decorated beautifully for Christmas already. Linville land Harbor is an awesome place.!! A great place to spend any holiday:)
Great cabin, very clean, and wonderful host! Very easy to communicate with! This is the second time my family and I have stayed at this cabin and absolutely love it!
property manager was outstanding. we had problems with the back door and a smoke alarm. he handled them right away. house was clean and everything was In good working condition. I would suggest up grading the furniture.
Great community that has everything. Alison was very responsive to any questions. The house has everything that you need. It is nice that it is walking distance to the pool, lake, and game room. The covered porch with the swing was great to enjoy the weather.
Great location in Land Harbor. Richard, the property manager, does a great job playing the hand he is dealt.
The kitchen is well appointed, but the rest of the cabin is in need of an update! The beds are terrible! Our kids ended up putting the mattress topper on the floor in the upstairs bedroom. The downstairs mattress isn't much better. The upstairs bathroom needs help...the towel bar was torn off the wall (and covered by a mirror), the shower is dark, and the mirror over the sink is so low that it is unusable. The entry floor tile is cracked in multiple places. I borrowed tools and fixed the wobbly dining table and bench. My wife cleaned the clogged bathroom ceiling vent....
The cabin has great untapped potential, but the owner needs to invest some capital to raise it to a 5 star level.
Driving through a winter storm, we were tired and cold when we arrived. We we’re welcomed by a warm, comfortable space we’re all eight of us were able to easily settle in for the night. Just fifteen minutes from the slopes, we were able to ski all day and get back to the cabin without much fuss. The kitchen was clean, with all the typical amenities. Why is the kind a property you’d expect to book year after year.
This was the best trip we've had yet! The house is very spacious and had everything we needed... not to mention it's in a GREAT location! We will be back!
The home, neighborhood and overall experience was outstanding in all regards. The manager was very responsive and so helpful with suggestions for area attractions. Our focus was hiking and the close proximity to excellent trails and views could not have been better! Thank you so much for offering this property.
We enjoyed the spacious house and the neighborhood was very friendly. Great location for our golf and restaurants. Property manager, Richard Anderson, was awesome, so friendly and always available.
My girlfriends and I had a great stay. We didn’t need anything fancy - just wanted a comfy place to stay with outdoor space to chat. The deck is perfect! The only small challenge was having only two rolls of TP for four days. Definitely not quite enough for four women. A quick trip to Lowe’s Foods fixed that. Thanks for letting us stay and enjoy summer in the mountains!
We had a great time! I'd highly recommend this property to anyone with kids. It really is a 5 minute walk to the pool, beach, and playground! The kids loved the front porch swing too. One safety note - one of the upstairs bedroom doors didn't latch, but we just moved a chair in front to prevent our toddler from toddling down the stairs in the middle of the night.
Very comfortable beds, WiFi was a little spotty but totally expected in the mountains. We were super pleased with the smart tv! Loved everything to do in the area and we will definitely be back to the "vacation house"! (As our toddler called it!)
Property is nice. Communication with the owner was awesome. Responded within 1 hour. The pool lanyard was missing, but Richard emailed and texted within 1 hour with the QR code. Beds were comfortable and very nice to have a washer and dryer.
Nice place - everything went well. Beds were comfortable. Deck was nice.
Cooking Pots were so so. Quiet area.
Would stay again.

Why they chose this property
Whatever season you choose has its special beauty. Springtime brings its new promise of blossoms and green. Summertime at 4,000 feet elevation gives wonderful mountain breezes and the exquisite profusion of white and pink rhododendron. Autumn brings the explosion of fall colors to Avery County mountains and winter brings the pristine quiet snow and skiing/snowboarding at Sugar or Beech Mountain close by.
What makes this property unique
- all the modern conveniences of home - close to restaurants, shops and outdoor activities - close to Grandfather mountain, Linville Falls and the Blue Ridge Parkway - close to 5 area ski hills - hiking on site, swimming pool, paddle boats, fishing and golf - 2 miles from YMCA with all indoor amenities including water park for the kids
