Adorable cabin. Very clean. Had everything that you needed when it came to dishes plates cookware spices etc. plenty of spare blankets and pillows. My kids absolutely loved the spot. We would definitely rent here again.
House is a good size and has great mountain views. We were disappointed in the fact that one of the bedrooms was supposed to have a queen sized bed but was definitely a full, making ot hard for 2 people to sleep on. Also, there was an insect problem with the property, especially in one of the spare bedrooms. I understand that this is in the mountains and you're bound to get bugs here and there, but my gripe was the fact that there was a number of dead insects scattered around the home when we got there. The biggest collection was about a dozen dead stink bugs on and around the window sill of one of the spare bedrooms upstairs. This leads me to believe that it wasn't properly cleaned before we had arrived. Also, we discovered that the glass on the coffee pot had a large crack going through it, which left us unable to brew coffee for everyone and had to use the k-cups. The toaster oven also wasn't functioning.
Views are incredible. Upstairs bedroom paneled walls are all buckled and warped. No headboard. The room felt very old and unattended. Otherwise a beautiful spot for a great fall getaway.
Overall we had a great stay. We were disappointed that upper windows were tarped off for some work that needed to be done that blocked some of the beautiful view, however the host communicated this to us at arrival time. She was great at communicating in general when I had questions or concerns!
The cabin was very nice and clean. The wrap around deck was nice with the gates to keep our dog in. The kitchen was well stocked with all the utensils you need. The beds were very comfortable. It would have been nice to have had a map layout showing what's in the area. We found the club house rather easy but had a hard time finding access to the creek to take our dog. We did not find any hiking trails but the neighborhood is a nice walking area. The main problem we had was out GPS brought us onto the parkway and then to a 4 mile narrow graveled road. Luckily we did not meet and cars! We arrived at a back gate where a road grader was parked. The gate code worked so we went in but it was obviously not where we should have entered. Our son and grandson came later but did not have the problem we had. We followed them out on a much better road than what we went in on.
We had a wonderful time staying in Tarta Nest! The rain was relentless at times but that didnât matter the house provided games and plenty of space to relax! I canât say enough about the property managerâŠshe went above and beyond to make sure our stay was special! We love Powder Horn mountain and moonlight properties, this is our 3rd stay and we are already planning our 4th getaway!!
This was a great location away from the hustle of daily stresses. Quieter than my normal. Breathe taking views, there was even a fly by military fighter jets at eye level. Would definitely recommend this location.
Loved staying at this cabin! It was easy to find with great instructions from the manager. It had a lot of the daily necessary things needed to feel like your own home. We also had some bad winter weather come through and the manager stayed in constant contact with helpful updates to ensure we werenât left unprepared.

HOST
easy and helpful to work with.
If you're looking for a family friendly spot, this place is quiet, roomy but cozy, and great to have places to explore in the gated community.
Our stay here was nothing short of perfect. The house was impeccably clean, offered stunning views, and was situated in an ideal location. It was also incredibly kid-friendly, equipped with books and toys that our children adored, especially the parachute toys they loved dropping from the loft.
Communication with the property manager was seamless; she was always prompt in her responses and even assisted in shipping back items we accidentally left behind.
The community itself offers a plethora of activities, from hiking trails to a refreshing pool. Our children had endless fun playing in the creek. Additionally, Boone is just a short drive away, offering attractions like mini-golf, shopping, and even a nearby brewery.
Choosing this place for our summer family vacation was an excellent decision. The moment we left, my family was already asking if we could return next year.
Great host and awesome cabin and even better view of the ridge
Everything was great, it was a great surprise to see they had wireless cellphone chargers since I forgot my cable!
The only suggestion I would give to the manager of the place is to clean the upper side of the window at the family room a bit more often so the amazing view can also be enjoyed from the loft of the cabin
The property was as listed but unfortunately it rained continuously for our whole stay prompting us to leave a day early. Also we discovered a bat in the living area one nite and had to catch and dispose of it..not fun. The bat did not come in through the fireplace as the management co. Suggested but from an opening next the fireplace where wood was stored. Would recommend sealing that up to keep unwanted animals out.
An unfortunate and rainy situation for us but I guess thats the risk you take when you book a place so far in advance.
First of all this home is a haven from our summer heat with the big deck doors emitting a breeze into the house at all times and ceiling fans. This house has all the amenities for day to day living and cooking. The wrap around deck has blockage to permit pets to run around secured. Fantastic huge reclining chairs for watching the large panel TV. Instructions everywhere to help with internet access, pool pass words, etc. The management is very responsive to any issue and access at arrival is a breeze. The private street is an added bonus as is the swimming pool and tennis court. and all only about 15-20 minutes to Boone. I recommend this home highly.
