About this property

Belcher House - Upscale Townhome in Small Resort Community w/Clubhouse & Pool

If you are looking for a retreat with family, or a weekend getaway with friends, Belcher House is for you! This spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom townhome, nestled near beautiful Caney Fork River and minutes from Western Carolina University and the charming main streets of Sylva and Dillsboro, NC, is the perfect mountain escape.

Sunny and bright by day, cozy and warm by night, the open concept is great for spending time with your special people. This home features a vaulted great room with a magnificent floor-to-ceiling stone wood burning fireplace, rustic barnwood beams, and heated bathroom floors. Opening up to the great room is the inviting dining room and fully-equipped kitchen complete with granite countertops and all the cookware and dishware you need to prepare a fantastic meal. Just off the great room is the Master Suite featuring a king-size bed and spacious en suite bathroom. The light-filled second bedroom, also with king bed, offers charming antique furnishings and a shared full bathroom with upgrades. The queen-size living room couch pulls out to sleep an additional two persons.

Venture onto the exterior covered porch and enjoy morning coffee or experience a night under the stars grilling or relaxing around the outdoor wood-burning fireplace. And, your furry friends won't be left out at the Belcher House — the fenced in yard is sure to make their vacation memorable!

This mountain getaway is located in Sundrops on Caney Fork, a private gated community. The nano-resort offers pool and hot tub, fitness center, walking trails, and parks for reading or resting. The sparkling Caney Fork River runs along over 2,200 feet of the community, so bring your fly rods and fishing vests!

Belcher House is dedicated to the memory and legacy of David Orr Belcher, 11th Chancellor of Western Carolina University.

Great stay

House was perfect for our needs. My daughter and I stayed here while my son was at a WCU summer band camp. House was convenient to the school and town. House was very clean and as pictured. It had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Getaway!

College friends reunion, enjoyed our 2nd stay at the Belcher House as much as our first! Beautiful home in a picturesque neighborhood. We love the location, as it is central to many activities that we enjoy, including hiking, shopping, restaurants, and all that downtown Sylva has to offer. This time we got to enjoy the Greening up the Mountain Festival! The Belcher House is well appointed, beautifully maintained, and had all we need for a relaxing and comfortable stay. Communication with management was thorough and easy. Will definitely stay here again!

Blissful Stay at The Belcher House

From the comfortable bedding to the beautiful well equipped kitchen, I felt completely taken care of while staying at Belcher House. The community is quiet, calm and provides access to trails and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. The proximity to WCU and Sylva makes for quick runs to campus or stores for provisions.

Adorable home

Was there for WCU graduation and couldn’t beat the location. House has all the amenities and was super cute. Walked on the paths along the creek. Wish driveway was longer and more restaurants were closer but a gem and truly relaxing.

Amazing Get away

This was the perfect place and location for our mini vacation. It was close to western carolina university and other day trips we made. The unit was beautiful and perfect for us. The owners provided everything we needed. We were especially grateful for the umbrellas for the one rainy day. We loved being able to have a fire on the porch. I would highly recommend staying here!

Great location

Belcher House was a great stay. Comfortable, private, quiet and clean place to stay. Pet friendly which helped b/c we had to bring our foster dog with us on the trip. The walking path to the creek was great and made me want to walk every morning. There was a steep drive down to the property but we got used to it. We live in SC and not used to the mountain roads.

Wonderful property, close to WCU

This was our 2nd stay at this property, and it continues to be our favorite! The size and location is perfect for our family, and we love the fact that we can also bring our dogs with us. We really enjoyed sitting on the covered porch in the evenings, and taking walks along the river. Highly Recommended!

Fantastic House

The house was impeccable. Having heated floors in the bathrooms was an added bonus since the temperature was pretty cold during our stay. We very much enjoyed our time in the mountains and will definitely return. The staff was extremely helpful with questions during the rental process making checking in and out very easy.

Visit Son at WCU

My wife and I visited our son who is a junior at WCU. It was his 21st birthday so we spent the weekend with him. The Belcher House was the perfect place to celebrate as a family. The house is nestled in a beautifully sculpted private community. The house is amazing with beautiful wood floors, granite kitchen countertops, wood burning fireplace inside and out, comfortable beds, heated tile bathroom floors and clean. Definitely staying again since it is conveniently close to the campus and it is close to our heart since we are WCU alumni of 1997.

Beautiful property/location; close to WCU!

Wonderful property in a scenic location close to WCU. My family and I enjoyed our stay during our visit to Western. Loved having the fenced yard for our dogs, and was close to walking paths near the river. House was well stocked with essentials. We are already planning a return visit next year. Highly recommend!

WCU Long Weekend

We spent a few days around Cullowhee during move-in week. The property was exactly as advertised. We were able to explore and visit the campus and other areas during our stay. The neighbors in the community were friendly and our 4 legged family members enjoyed the trails and the fenced yard.

Great Long Weekend

We had visited this Caney Fork neighborhood before and really loved the pool and the walking trails. The Belcher house was a great place to stay. It was clean and was stocked well with kitchen equipment, extra soaps, trash bags etc. (things a lot of property companies skimp on now to save a few dollars) Beautiful views on the front porch of the mountains. So much to do near and a great resource book the owner put together to help guide a first timer around the area. Thanks for a great family vacation!
