A truly perfect home in the mountains. For me, the view is what makes the trip. When searching for the best home for us, I wondered if we'd miss having a full mountain view. I'm so glad we chose this place. The river-front porch was where we spent most of our time. We stayed in February, so we couldn't put our feet in, but I could imagine how wonderful it would have been in the warmer months. Listening to the river was so peaceful. The house itself is beautiful inside - exactly like the photos - and is on a very quiet street. Hardly any traffic. The wi-fi was a bit spotty at times, but we didn't need it much. Just for TV in the evenings. We reached out to the host for help with it when we arrived and she was very prompt and helpful. We were in town for a wedding shower and were able to take a fun day trip to Waynesville for shopping and lunch. The home is very conveniently located. Overall, it was a wonderful stay. I hope we can come back soon!
