Summary: Overlook Lodge was absolutely amazing!! A new home, nicely updated and super clean. Everything you would need and more in the kitchen. Bedrooms and bathrooms were nice and spacious. Outdoor areas were fantastic for adults and kids both!! Kids played wiffleball on the putting green area and adults enjoyed the pickleball court and deck. Fire pit area and hot tub amazing as well. Dawn was a gracious host, no issues whatsoever! Would absolutely go back!!

Summary: Amazing is the word that comes to mind when thinking about our time at The Overlook! Not only is the view spectacular, the house is so beautful and clean and decorated and stocked with such care and thoughtfulness. Our host, Dawn, was even more amazing. She helped make the planning for our trip and the stay so much better. She is such a joy to communicate with and is so very friendly and accommodating. My family agree that Dawn and the Overlook is our most favorite VRBO rental so far (and we have stayed in many rentals over the years)! Just looking at all of Dawn’s 5 star reviews will tell you this is a great choice! We particularly loves the majestic views off the back deck, the feeling of peace and quiet and solitude sitting on top of a mountain! Just perfect! Also, we brought our elderly parents, mom in a wheelchair, and Dawn thought of everything to ensure our parents were comfortable there. They had a fabulous time. We have precious memories of our time together here. Thank you again, Dawn!!!

Summary: We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful mountain house! The home was cozy, clean, and perfectly situated with stunning views that made it feel like a true getaway. One of the highlights of our experience was Dawn—she was an amazing host. Her communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful from start to finish, which made everything smooth and stress-free. You can tell she really cares about making her guests feel welcome. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a peaceful, well-managed mountain retreat!

Summary: The home is beautiful and the pictures do not do it justice, Dawn was an incredible host! She was not only responsive, but proactive and thoughtful in the months leading up to our stay. Our family and friends gathered for a micro wedding the weekend between Christmas and new years, and it could not have been a better venue. The mountain road was rough getting up, but manageable for cars of all models (there was no ice at the time of booking).

Summary: The property is beautiful. The facilities are great and the property owner is delightful to talk to. We had 4 families there, include my wife and I and 3 of our children and their families totaling 16. There was just the right amount of room and we had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Unfortunately the weather was not great, with rain on the first 2 of 3.5 days, light snow on the second and the only sunshine as we were packing to leave. Thanks to Dawn for her kindness.

Summary: Overlook Lodge was absolutely fabulous! The home exceeded our expectations and was even more spectacular than the pictures. Our family of 13 had a wonderful time despite Hurricane Debby. There are so many games and activities for everyone of all ages. Dawn's communication was stellar and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. She is beyond exceptional as a host. Looking forward to booking another trip to Overlook Lodge soon.

Summary: We had our annual family reunion at Overlook Lodge and it was absolutely perfect. We had 7 kids + 7 adults and all fit comfortably. The game room, back porch, and outdoor green space were especially loved. Dawn was a fantastic, responsive host. We plan on coming back!
