Comfortable, Great Views, They've Thought of Everything!

Our group of 9 plus 4 kids (age 3 months to 6 years) had a great time in this house! From Scott and Lynn's good communications prior to the stay (although the packet of paper information would have been better sent  via email), to the cleanliness of the house when we arrived, we knew we  were in for a great stay. They seem to have thought of everything, from  little things like additional towel hooks by the hot tub, to lots of  games and entertainment, to the 3 fireplaces, and the unexpected like a  car battery jumper in the garage (which we fortunately did not need).  The beds were comfortable, the house was quiet enough that nobody woke  up when the 3 month old woke up in the middle of the night, and the  pellet stove in the basement does a great job of keeping it warm enough  down there. The hot tub worked well and there were sufficient bathrooms. Realistically the drive to the summit of Snowshoe is about 25 mins.  Thanks again! We've stayed in many homes on and off mountain near  Snowshoe and this was one of the best we've been to.

Please find the key to the Top of the Ridge Cabin enclosed with this letter.  We stayed from August 6 through August 10. Our group was a family of three generations gathering together from across the country to just spend some time relaxing together.  We enjoyed our stay at your cabin.  We loved the cabin itself and the property and the mountain views were amazing.  There was so much to do without even leaving the cabin.  You will notice many more likes on your Facebook page. T&J L.August 2015

Thanks Scott, enjoyed our stay at the cabin!  Tom A. August 2015

Lynn and Scott, we have had such a great time at your fabulous mountain top home.  We’ve really enjoyed the expansive lawn, walks around the property and the spaciousness of the house.  We reviewed the procedures for our departure tomorrow.  Thank you!  W. C.  June 2015

Thank you for your help in making our vacation a success!  We all had a wonderful time at the Top of the Ridge cabin.  C&A E. June 2015

What a beautiful piece of property you guys have !  Thanks for sharing.  We had an incredible weekend.  Loved everything about it.K.C. April 2015

Sorry it took forever to get this back to you!. Thought you might ike this sign. We have one at our house and it’s amazing how many people don’t know how to deal with a septic system.  We loved your house and the area.  Thank you!  K. G March 2015

I just wanted to write a quick note and say how much we enjoyed our time at
your beautiful home. The home, property, and view were more than we could
have ever imagined. I really appreciate your being so helpful during the
whole process. We left the house as instructed on the check out list. The
beds that were used were left unmade, used towels were placed in the
laundry room, and all doors were locked as instructed. I will go ahead and
mail you back your key within the next 24 hours. Again, I cannot tell you how much we enjoyed your property. I hope that you find that we left the house in a state exceeding your expectations and that we cared for the property as if it
were our own. Hopefully we can look forward to staying at your property
again in the future. Hope you had a great 4th of July. M.A. June 2014

The house was wonderful !  We had an amazing time and we’d like to even come back with the kids !  thanks a million times!  C & M April 2014

We had a lovely stay at the ‘Top of the Ridge Cabin’. As stated you certainly did need 4-wheel drive to get to the cabin.  Just a beautiful view of the mountains from the living room.  H & G  February 2014

The cabin is beautiful!  We enjoyed our stay and can’t wait for next year year’s visit.  Have a wonderful 2014 !.  S & K  January 2014

We received a wonderful picture of the group on the loft balcony with a note saying... Dear Scott, We just wanted to say thank you.  We had an amazing time.  You house was wonderful as always.  We look forward to renting from you again next year.  A.C. January 2014

We absolutely loved this cabin! I would like to go on and say that it  looks a lot better in person too. It is very spacious, clean, and  equipped with everything you may possibly need! It took us only around  10 - 15 mins to get to the snowshoe, which is not bad at all. The owners are very nice, always available via email and easy to deal with. I  would highly recommend anyone to rent this cabin. Thank you for  everything, Scott!  December 2013

Thank you, we had a wonderful time -- once everyone arrived safely Wednesday night !! Yikes !.  M. G. ....Arriving during 8-10 inches of snow. November 2013

My family and I absolutely LOVED this cabin! The view is AMAZING and  the cabin is well equipped with everything we needed including extras  like surround sound, board games, movies and a karaoke machine. My boys enjoyed the game room, large yard, and the grass maze. We adults had a great time relaxing in front of the fire place on the deck. I've  stayed in several mountain cabins and this was the first that had this  feature. It's awesome! Another huge plus is the fact that it has  three bedrooms with their own bath which is great for a large group.  The owners were wonderful as well. I just can't say enough... I would  highly recommend Top of the Ridge Cabin!  October 2013

Scott and Lynn, The house and the area are beautiful.  The house worked out great for us.  Thank you for a lovely house in a great location.  The solitude was a nice break from the every day rate race.  S. E. September 2013

The house was perfect and we had a fabulous time. L.M. August 2013

Wanted to let you know I dropped the key in the mail today. We had a wonderful time!!! I had to attach a picture my husband took from the deck. What an incredible view!  Thank you again for the use of your beautiful home!! B.M. August 2013

You have a lovely rental home.  The equipped kitchen was really the most equipped we have ever rented.  We appreciated it very much because we cook!  You can’t believe every thing we needed - the right pan - the spice.  Wonderful !  You have dfinitely spoiled us ... We had a great time - laughed a lot....Will recommend your home to everyone.  I can’t imagine how beautiful it would be in the fall !!. Thank you again for letting us experience the quiet, so beautiful and lovely !! R.K. June 2013

Again, thanks for having us at the Top of the Ridge.  We really had a wonderful time and we’ll see you again next year.  March 2011

You have a beautiful home and we certainly enjoyed it.  Thank you for everything.  August 2010

We really enjoyed out time at the Top of the Ridge.  It was perfect  for our family.  The kitchen was great and well equipped. We did swap  out the grill propane tank with the spare full tank from the garage.  Also we loved the use of the outside firepit.  October 2010

We will come again.  Wonderful place !!  August 2010

Thank you for allowing us to come and  visit your cabin for a week. We hope to come back again as our boys get older and can appreciate all of the amenities.  What a lovely setting  and the house was so clean and well maintained. We couldn’t have asked  for a better place to rest and relax. August 2010

Thanks for an amazing weekend. July 2010

The cabin was awesome. We had a great time. July 2010

Thank you so much for renting your house  to us.  We had a wonderful, relaxing vacation.  My mother absolutely  loved it !!.  Your directions were spot on and we loved Whittaker Falls.  Thanks again for everything.  June 2010

Thank you for all of your support and  advice regarding our trip to the Top of the Ridge Cabin this past  weekend. I know I speak for the entire group when I say that you truly  own one of the most beautiful properties I have had the pleasure to stay at and that the level of support we received from you really helped  make our weekend a success. Our group lucked out with some great weather and we hope that the next time we decide to come back that we will be  just as fortunate! May 2010

My group and I were very pleased with the cabin. The evening of unwinding after a long day was as close to  perfect as it could get. Even with the high winds and freezing  temperatures, the hot tub was very entertaining.  January 2010

We had a wonderful time staying at your cabin. Your property is beautiful!!  The kids had a great time playing in the yard and exploring the surroundings.  The chains were the best investment.  That was quite the adventure for us Floridians !! December 2009

We had a great time despite the big snow. December 2009

Thank you for letting us stay at the Top of the Ridge cabin.  It was very enjoyable and the amenities were great ! November 2009

It was a beautiful, quiet place to stay.  My children really enjoyed being able to play paintball in the maze and  ride their atv's. Would definitely keep coming back. June 2009

Had a wonderful time in your beautiful  home - filled the hummingbird feeder and watched them feast.  There’s a  nest of baby robins by the front door. May 2009

The house is great !!  We enjoyed our stay - April 2009

We couldn’t have asked for a better house with all of the amenities. We enjoyed all the aspects provided (pool  table, ping pong, entertainment center, cookware, etc.) as well as the  view. I will be glad to recommend your house to others that vacation up  that way and I hope next year I can contact you again. I just wanted to let you know that it was a great trip.  March 2009

We enjoyed our stay. Just wish we had  had snow before the day we were leaving.  Can’t control the weather. At least the skiers, snowboarders, and tubing aficionados were able to  enjoy the mountain. It is a beautiful area. February 2009

We had such a wonderful time and all of our guests were very impressed.  Thanks so much January 2009

Allow me to thank you for sharing your  precious cabin. How wonderful it must be for you to have such a beautiful house resting on such a magnificent property.  I could not  have been happier with absolutely everything; from the isolation to the  location and the convenience. July 2008

Had a good time and enjoyed our stay.  The golf course was in great shape and we left plenty of balls in the woods. June 2008

Had an awesome time. Beautiful home and property May 2008

Very lovely and pleasant. Our main  purpose was to bond and relax. We stocked the cupboards and refrigerator with all kinds of food. We did go to the local market to get the  ingredients for Smores ! ! September 2005

This was our first vacation in the  mountains. We had mixed sunshine, fog and some rain. It's all good and  some things take a little time to get to them, but the ride is very  scenic so it doesn't really matter. We went to the Green Bank  Observatory(Get an soft ice cream here and a ham wrap, they're the  best), the Cass Train ride, Seneca Caverns, Chair lift ride to the lake, horseback riding, paintballing in the backyard maze. August 2005

We had a mix of beautiful sun, torrential rain and clouds. We went to the water chutes at Whittaker Falls, bungee jumping for the kids at Snowshoe, sat on the beach at Snowshoe lake. We set up an obstacle course in the yard and also collected frogs for our one and only "Frog Olympics" We visited the Green Bank observatory and  took the teenagers over to show clay pigeons.

All in all, Whittaker Falls on the Elk River was the best ! July 2005

We came for the week in 2 cars and 1 plane. The weather was mild in the upper 70's mostly and one day of  non-stop rain. We read, played games, watched movies, sat out by the  fire, hiked, canoed, napped outside. We went to Pioneer Days in  Marlinton and rode the Cass Train. We had a big outdoor scavenger hunt.  We loved the Elk River Restaurant, lighting fireworks, canoeing at  Snowshoe and making S'mores !! July 2005

We came for a weekend get together and  played games, hiked, shopped, socialized and celebrated two birthdays.  We made a great big bon fire. We saw a black bear cub(never saw mama),  mama deer and her baby, hummingbird and numerous birds. We enjoyed  birthday gag gifts, water balloon fights, sun setting, moon rising, fire  pit, chilling and spending time with close friends June 2005

The weather was in the 60's and we saw a  complete Rainbow from one end to the other. We baked cookies, watched  movies and sat in the hot tub. I loved eating at Mean Jean's on the way  here. May 2005

This was a family reunion and relaxation  for Mom's birthday. We had a day and 1/2 of rain, 70 degrees and sunny  the rest of the time.

We ate, played ping pong, pool, hot  tub.(the kids loved it) We golfed (6 man scramble at the country club)  Pretty wide open with many lost balls. Home run derby and birthday  party. We took a day trip to the waterfalls. 8 cows showed up in the  driveway one day.

We enjoted the Falls of Hills creek, Cranberry Nature Center, Cass Railroad and the Raven's Golf Country Club. May 2005

We had big trucks, 2 SUV's and one car.  There was 33" of snow when we arrived and at least 8 more inches fell  while we were here. We watched DVD's, tried to make a snow angel, but  the snow was too deep, relaxed in the hot tub, played lots of pool and  ping pong. Slept a little and played a lot. We went 4 wheeling by  accident, do do that, it's hard to get out. We took a wrong turn out of  the driveway, make sure you turn right out of the driveway. March 2005

Played Cranium, cards, ping pong, pool  and partied. We all drove in 4 wheel drives. It snowed 2 of the 4 days  we were here and it was very windy at night. We made a fire outside for  the smokers and warmed ourselves in the hot tub.
The dark beer made  by Budweiser but is like Guiness at Misty's at Silver Creek. Mud pies at the store at 219/66. Our favorite meal was 2 fry baskets at the Top of  the World Condo while still in ski gear. A special highlight was the  crazy guy who jumped from the lift at closing to get one last run in February 2005

This was a family get together and ski  trip. We arrived in 4 cars and the weather was cold in the 20's. We ate, skied, snowboarded, shopped and played games. We ate snow ice cream,  played ping pong, karaoke, pool and hung out in the hot tub !! We saw  some friends from SC. I would recommend the Cheap City Pizza and  Boathouse restaurants. We especially enjoyed singing Karaoke, making  snow ice cream and just having fun ! There were so many ladybugs we felt really lucky January 2005

We arrived in big trucks and it was too warm during our stay. We ate too much, drank too much and no sleep while we skied for 2 days straight. Special advice: Do not take a left out  of the driveway. We will be back next year and we can't wait !! December 2004

Freezing, snowed the 1st day. We went skiing and snowboarding. Went in the hot tub and watched movies. There were a lot of snowboarders and skiers. We recommend the Elk River  (Snowboard Shop) We especially enjoyed going in the hot tub when it was  20 degrees outside. And the windy howling nights. November 2004

Cold, rainy some snow, however little sun. We spent alot of time playing cards, sitting by the fire, sledding  and checking out Snowshoe Village, shopping and eating too much food !!. Watching movies.

A big black bull wandered through the property and lots of deer passed by.

Visit the "Junction in Snowshoe Village for great appetizers and Happy Hour.  Check out the beautiful scenes and wildlife. We had a very relaxing time with lots of R&R November 2004
