This is a beautiful 1898 Victorian that has been restored in many ways but also has the amenities of a modern home, such as the jacuzzi tub and granite countertops in the hickory kitchen. It is located just off the main street of Waynesville NC where there are shopping and restaurants galore. Explore the Smokies where there are an array of activities to please everyone young and old. Don't be surprised if the doorbell rings and there is no one there, as the house has a friendly visitor now and again that likes to play tricks. The main house sleeps 12 with 5 bedrooms. We also have another rental available.
Waynesville is Haywood County's oldest town with over a century of experience as a quaint mountain retreat. Even before the railroad made it easy to get here, visitors flocked to Waynesville for the cool, clean air, clean water, outstanding scenery and an opportunity to escape sweltering cities.
Today, as Waynesville looks forward to its bicentennial in 2009, vacationers continue to gravitate to this delightful mountain town for its cool summers, dramatic autumns, mild winters, lush springtime, as well as Southern hospitality and small town charm.
But, be prepared. You're bound to fall in love. Waynesville's quaint old buildings, brick sidewalks, galleries, tempting foods and old-time general store will take you back to a more leisurely time. A time when people made you feel welcome and when you could slow down and really savor the present.
Waynesville may be a small town, but it's big on entertainment and culture. There's nightlife and music for every taste - from bluegrass and country to jazz, contemporary and folk. The award-wining theatre local features a full schedule of performances. Folkmoot U.S.A. attracts entertainers from all over the world. The Museum of North Carolina Handicrafts is housed right here at our own historic Shelton House, right across the street from our rental. |
