About this property
Magnificent mountain view that does not go down with the sunset
Elegant, fully furnished home completed in 2007 includes an attached garage with a one step entrance. The home is located at a cool 3300 ft elevation in Waynesville, NC in the heart of the Smokey Mountains. The location is ideal - just a 7 min. drive from downtown Waynesville- a small town but a big destination. Magnificent mountain views from the great room, gourmet kitchen, master bedroom, downstairs den, screened porch, open decks- upper and lower, and 3 downstairs bedrooms. The large deck space upstairs and downstairs allows you to enjoy the mountain air and be close to nature. Comfortable deck furniture gives you an excuse to nap, read, or just daydream while sharing the space with the birds.The quietness is awesome as you listen carefully to hear the wild turkeys calling or the sound of a hummingbird . Some guests enjoy the large screened-in porch for outside dining during breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And oh yes , the views do not go down with the sun you enjoy looking down the valley at the distant night lights twinkling in the town of Waynesville adding to the magic under the stars. The large gourmet kitchen which is open to the great room is well equipped for the chef . The guests will enjoy being able to gather around the 4x8 ft granite center island to supervise and sample as dinner is being prepared. Dining can be enjoyed on the screened porch, dining room ,or the large island in the kitchen. For grillers , a large Weber gas grill on the deck is two steps away from the kitchen . This spacious home has vaulted beamed ceilings on the main floor . There are 2 stone fireplaces- a wood burning on the main floor and gas burning on the floor below. This home has 4 hi def TV's , a CD player, and Internet. The upstairs great room 45 "TV is high definition with a DVR for recording your favorite shows in addition to a Bluray DVD player for movies . Wifi is available for playing Pandora or accessing your Netflix account , etc. .
Our Wayneview home is all about location, location, location, luxury, and view. Once you arrive at our home, you will not want to leave even though the easy access and proximity to amenities will offer you the option. Hiking trails are too many to mention and the Blue Ridge Parkway plus Lake Junaluska with it's 2 mile walking path are located about 5 miles from our home. Even a hike up the road from our home can be quite invigorating . This home is easy to escape to and yet secluded and private. We have attempted to furnish our home with everything you will need to make your vacation complete- without having to pack everything you own. Our furnishings are first class not second hand . We want our guest to be pampered, spoiled, and feel their vacation is very special and memorable. Our property manager is located a few miles and available to assist you as needed. Wake up to the majesty of the Smokey mountains where God and beauty come together .The linens are upscale and comfy. Each of the 4 bedrooms has a king size bed with an en-suite bath for your privacy . The mattresses on these king size beds are so comfortable that they beg you to oversleep.The master bedroom located on the main floor has a new upscale mattress just added in late 2016. Shopping, golf, and gourmet food can be an added benefit to being in this location as well. Laurel Ridge Country Club golf course is only a mile away with several other courses close by. And, just 3 miles down the mountain lies the small village of Hazelwood which has the great Smokey Mtn Roasters coffee shop (with delicious bagels), Haywood Smokehouse ( BBQ ), Bookstore, Vale 243 Italian Restaurant, Beach Mtn. Diner , a high-end soap shop, etc . For additional shopping and restaurants, you will be only 8 minutes away from Waynesville - a lovely, little artsy town full of restaurant's and neat shops. A trip to Asheville is approximately a 35 minute drive and 40 minutes to the Biltmore House & Village. Before I forget , we are sorry but (we are not able to accommodate motorcycles or 3 wheelers in this community) . While enjoying this home , please take time to smell and pick the flowers in the lovely garden. Sometimes growing there you will even find fresh herbs for your chef.
A Wayneview get-a-way vacation is one of beauty, memories, and relaxation. Once you stay here....taking in the view and breathing the fresh mountain air will remove the wrinkles from your soul and you will return again and again. We do prefer to Speak with our guests prior to confirming a reservation. The renter of our home must be 25 yr. old or older. Call or text me on my cell #843.224.7817 . Ann Garris

About the host
Hosted by Ann or Hollis Garris
We are an active couple who enjoy luxury. Hollis sells real estate on beautiful Kiawah Island, SC . Ann is a retired nurse who is now a tour guide in Charleston, SC. (charlestonwalkingtourswithann.com) . Things we enjoy include traveling around the world and staying at places that are upscale with good locations. We enjoy the outdoors and yet love the amenities that cities and small towns offer- like great restaurants, upscale shopping , art, etc . It gives us great pleasure to share our upscale homes in Waynesville,NC and Kiawah Island, SC with folks.... when we are not enjoying them ourselves.
Why they chose this property
In visiting the beautiful mountains of NC we could not find a home with the views, ease of access, and luxuries we wanted. Many places we stayed around Wayneville were so remote that it took forever to reach the home.. once you were off the highway. These remote areas made traveling after dark difficult if not impossible and therefore we found ourselves staying in and not venturing out at night. Many homes only had the basic furnishings and we were disappointed each time. As an example -In the eight homes we rented while building our home, not one of them had wine glasses. We fixed this disappointment "of only the basics" by building and furnishing our home with everything we felt was necessary for the perfect vacation.
What makes this property unique
Location, Location, Location and View, View, View
Our home was built and furnished with adult guests in mind. Each bedroom is furnished with comfortable king size beds , and each bedroom has an ensuite private bath. The linens , bed coverings, and upholstered furniture are not forgiving fabrics. There are no game tables or outside areas for children to play. In our visits to the NC mountains, we found most homes were equipped to entertain children and while that was not our intent with our home...well mannered children are welcomed.
During the months of Dec, Jan, Feb, and March, our home is not offered for booking. The weather is too unpredictable. We do have a built in full home generator - In case of power failures that can interrupt a fun vacation.
