Rich Summit View Cabin Rental

10/01/2024

While we determine what to do next... We may PIVOT to Mid Term Rentals.

1. This will help locals/rescue personnel have homes
2. This will employ locals
3. This will will help us cover basic holding costs.

Until we are sure what we are doing, I am helping others make the move!

I am trying to share this post in as many Short Term/Mid Term vacation rental sites possible.

Tourists - Boone is closed for a bit while families recover their homes, businesses, and grieve the loss of lives, local beauty and massive change.

We will toot every possible horn and get the message out asap when its time to back. Until we need you to help drop supplies where the rescue companies setup shop, give to local charities, or find other great ways to support ANY person that is suffering no matter their state/location.

How short term rentals can weather the storm of losing a Tourist destination while helping the locals. Portions of this list will be shared with EXPLOREBOONE.com as they are discussing the best way to put up weblink or tab that can be shared with anyone that contacts them.

https://www.politico.com/news/2024/09/29/fema-starlink-helene-victims-00181576 FEMA has starlink units with them to help. Lets keep watching for star link locations to be posted. like with electricity I think the further away you live from a major high way or major road for your area the harder it will be to get those services.

Administrator Deanne Criswell is confident that the agency has enough resources.

Thank you to all who have reached out. I have heard from family and friends as well as past Real Estate customers from the very beginning and some of our repeat renters.

What do we know about Rich Summit View Cabin Rental? Not a ton, we have had a neighbor drive by and say that what they could see from the road it looked ok but we are hoping to have a local from our road do a walk around inside and out for us and take some pics. No cellular just yet unless you go outside of the neighborhood or one of the mountain tops. We are so lucky to have the POA Interim Presidents husband up there with all his tools to grade the road, take down trees where he can and get it back in drivable shape. They run off caused alot of hazards. So we really don't know whats up until maybe later this week.

We want to head up but do not want to be in the way of recovery efforts. The best way to help right now, outside of flying your own helicopter with supplies or a 18 wheeler loaded down with stuff is to give to any of the many disaster companies. I know the Cajun Navy is down there doing a wonderful job. We send to them and Red Cross until we can find other direct local places to help.

Should we decide to go up I will be reaching out for supplies. I will keep you posted.

To anyone that has seen the devastation on TV and FB please know that Florida, GA, TN and NC are damaged beyond your wildest dreams. To hear someone today say they are starting to recover bodies out of the tree limbs from people that were washed away or to see a casket going down the river tumbling (idk where that was from) or to see a Lake Lure so covered with debris that you think its a field with trees down you just cant fathom it.

I am in some local groups that are rental specific as well as many that are just NC or Boone specific plus all the videos the Boone locals are sending us. Until the water recedes to its normal state and things dry out we will not truly be able to see how bad it was. The before and after images will be astounding.

As bad as Boone and surrounding High Country towns are, I think the Asheville, Hendersonville, Burnsville etc were hit worse as whole towns are missing or up to the roof with water.

Burnsville was a town we researched when looking for a second vacation rental and although we didn't go through with it I have kept an eye on that area. It surely did grow over the 11 years we have owned a vacation rentals. But now I will have to really re-think it. This area has some of the highest Mountains on the Eastern seaboard so that much rain in a short time just travels down so fast and nothing, not steel bridges, nothing stops that power.

We do not know what will happen going forward. We may have to turn our place into a mid term rental to house local people that have insurance as I just can't imagine there is even a winter season happening as the ski areas are torn up. Who knows...

But I ask you when we are back up and running to please help us get the word out. The mountains are still there and they are still beautiful. Things will turn around. The love and caring shown by neighbors not only in Silverleaf POA but all over has been truly amazing.

I posted this in my BlBlue Ridge Mountains Vacation Rentals by Owner - Book Direct Save morend wanted to share with Friends and Family whats going on.

To owners and guests in this group I ask that if you have current reservations with bookings in Mid October and beyond to wait a few more days to see if the area you are booking is clear. Many owners homes are ok but the surrounding towns you want to see are or may be gone. Owners are overwhelmed and struggling to take care of current guests that may be stranded so any calls to discuss your upcoming plans will be met with no answers, exhaustion or worse.
If you are able, please reach out to reputable companies and donate your time, money or both. We personally have sent some to the Cajun Navy and Red Cross until we can be of more assistance locally. Rich Summit View hasnt even been accessed to see if its still available. Our neighborhood has no power, water or internet. Roads are washed out. Worse though is we can't get ahold of our local friends to see if they survived the initial storm much less the washouts and continual water damage.
If you live near one of the affected sites, do your best not to venture out. Many curfews have been set. The danger isnt over. All it will take is for a levee to break, a road to give away and you will be swept away. I have already read stories of a 30 year old in Boone that happened to.
If you have homes in the area or know of ones that do, I read a post today from a remediation comapny that suggested that you search for out of town companies to come in and make repairs like from Charlotte, Raleigh, Atlanta etc (depending on where your place is so that you are not pulling local companies away from repairing the LOCALS homes and business'. The devistation goes so deep. Many of these very locals depend on tourism which we will lose. So I ask that your come back to support our beloved mountain towns as frequently as you can as soon as they are safe to visit.
I ask that you please invite your friends and family that love the mountains to please join and support our growth so that when we are all back up and ready they have homes to visit.
