We really enjoyed the porch and location!

It would make more sense if the smart TV was located in the living room so you could watch a movie without laying on the worn-out bed to view. The living room sofa was showing its age too. Boards (2x4'S) were placed under the sofa cushions for support.

The twin beds were used by adults and were not up to standard. They slant and the one I slept in also slandered sideways. Recommend reviewing the Hollywood frame. The mattresses were ok. The king mattress is very soft .

Thanks for mailing my son his I pad, sorry he left it behind. When I asked him if he had anything to add in the survey, he asked me to tell you the place was great, and they loved the sheep footstools.

Very nice property just a few observations. There is very little hot water on the kitchen sink. The kitchen could use additional pans, like kettle and frying pan, etc.

The unit is beautiful. They need to restock sharp knives, especially steak knives. Also, need a new set of teflon pots and pans. Unfortunately, we did not find the little electric grill until after we cooked dinner both nights so you might want to let guests know that it is in the second bedroom closet. The only other comment is they could really use a good reading light in the great room. Also, we could never figure out how to get the fireplace on.

this was a great property! Everything was really nice except the WiFi didn't work on our laptop. The connection was never available. We called maintenance because we had a problem getting the TV to work and while he was there, he checked the internet and even he couldn't understand why we could not connect. We were able to connect on our phones but never on the laptop. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay and will stay there again in the future

Echota on the Ridge is a very nice property for many reasons. Not too hard to get to, close to either Boone or Banner Elk for shopping , restaurants and recreation. The views from the back porch from most units are very beautiful especially the sunsets.The parking lot is spacious and good for walking, and very nicely landscaped.

Lovely condo and the location was perfect to all the ski resorts. We travel from Florida every year to enjoy some snow in NC, and we always try new places to stay. This one was at the top of our list of favs.

All the directions were clear and the check-in process was good. The only problem we had was with trash. We did not know there was a second garbage bag underneath the bag in the large kitchen trashcan, it would have been good to know there was an extra bag available. Also there was no information about recycling. We separated out our recycling, but there was no recycling disposal onsite. It would have been nice to have that stated in the check in directions. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay and the staff we in

It was very clean and obviously well maintained, we'd stay in this rental again! They went the extra step to have upgraded appliances and furnishings.

Nice condominium and very comfortable. It would be good if the owners added a few more table lamps in the main living area.
The stairs from the parking level to the condo front door are very slippery when it rains or snows. Non skid strips on the stair treads would be helpful and safer.
Foscoe Rentals should include a map of the entire Echota/Ridge area as part of the check-in process.

The property, amenities and location were outstanding. The quality and upkeep of the property felt more like we were staying in a friend's house rather than A VRBO. We highly recommend and look forward to visiting again.

This rental was very nice but it lacked a few things in the kitchen that I had found in other Foscoe rentals. The kitchen did not have any dish drying racks or any bowls larger than the cereal bowls. It would be helpful to have a drying rack for drying out handwashed items that did not go or could not go in the dishwasher. The larger bowls would have been helpful for serving salads, side dishes, or pasta. I understand that these weren't requirements but if they listed these things as not available in th

We enjoyed our stay very much! The Wilshire's have a beautiful condo, professional grade appliances, two beautiful bathroom suites with beautiful pocket doors, and a pullout couch. The accommodations made all the difference for a group of six, 4 adults and 2 kids. The view of the mountains were spectacular. We spent early mornings on the balcony with coffee and beautiful evenings enjoying the panoramic view with our wine. Our original plans were to eat out to enjoy some local food; however, we decided
