Small, but has every thing you need for your stay. Not far from Wester Carolina college., we hiked, walked an explored Sylva an near by towns. Enjoyed are stay.
We enjoyed the small space for our two night stay. Having a deck was a big plus for us. The area was private and quiet. The kitchen was well equipped- better than many more expensive places at which we have stayed. We will definitely rent again when visiting my bf's daughter at Western University.
The tiny house is very cute. All the comforts of home in a small package. The outside stairs are much appreciated when you are ready to move luggage to/from the loft bedroom. Nice quiet neighborhood in Cullowhee area, very convenient to Sylva/Dillsboro
Perfect for anything related Western Carolina right at the university. Everything was wonderful definitely a tiny place people 6ft may hit a few things 😁 Great host who told us of a new burger place not far away that was delicious.
Small A-frame perfect for one or two people. All the amenities of home - I used all the kitchen appliances, watched cable TV, had breakfast on the back porch. Lovely week! Returning to stay next month! This house is a half mile from WCU campus…thinking of walking to the football stadium to avoid chaotic parking. A gem!!
