I recently stayed at Hawk's View for one week (Monday to Monday) while in town for a summer horse show at Tryon International Equestrian Center and had a fantastic experience. The house has every amenity you could possibly need, including a beautiful and modern kitchen (fully equipped with all the essentials!), spacious and comfortable living spaces, internet and TV, washer/dryer, cozy bedrooms (the master has an AMAZING walk-in closet for long stays and a beautiful bathroom!), and more. The house is exactly as the photos appear and also immaculately clean and well-managed. Perhaps my favorite parts of the house were the two balconies, both off of separate living spaces on two different floors - perfect if you are sharing the house with multiple families or just want the kids to have their own separate space to decompress. The drive up and down the mountain to the Equestrian Center was a breeze - 15-20 minutes maximum - and it's also nice that the commute passes through the town of Columbus so you can grab whatever you need at the grocery store, CVS, gas station, a bite to eat, all while on the way. There are plenty of great restaurants and little towns with fun shops to explore nearby, but you may end up loving the views from the balconies so much that you opt to make a meal yourself in the fabulous kitchen and enjoy it outside. While I personally was in town for the horse show, Hawk's View would make the perfect retreat for a girls' weekend, relaxed honeymoon in the mountains, or family reunion. It's a versatile rental with amenities that are equal to (and maybe even surpass...) a five-star hotel, and no matter what you are in town for, you will feel like you are on vacation at Hawk's View!
