Say hello to rolling hills, natural beauty, and sweet serenity here at The Willows, a spacious home perfect for family and friends to enjoy. Located conveniently close to downtown Waynesville yet set back from busy roads, you will have a lovely mix of seclusion while still being close to everything that makes this area special. Not to mention, this home is between Bryson City and Asheville, so venturing out a bit will be a breeze.
There are plenty of ways to use each dreamy vacation day, yet simply staying near home base can surprisingly be the best option. Host family dinners inside using the fully remodeled kitchen boasting stainless steel appliances and great views or sit out on the furnished deck to listen to the birds with a good book in hand. When the sun starts to dip behind the treetops, throw a few logs on the firepit and tell stories until the sky is filled with dazzling constellations. If you are looking for a bit of fun indoors, the foosball/slide hockey/billiards table downstairs can assist with friendly competition and two living areas await to be the perfect locations for movie nights.
You are long overdue for a tranquil getaway, so treat yourself today!
