About the host

Hosted by Bill McCracken

I moved back to Waynesville in 2003 after college and a 10 year stint in the corporate world. I enjoy all types of outdoor activities including cycling, running, skiing, surfing and playing guitar.

Why they chose this property

My Father purchased the property in 1984 to be next door to his sister, and to remain near the property of the original family dairy farm started in the 1920's, McCracken Dairy.

What makes this property unique

This quaint property is quiet, cozy and has beautiful long range views of 2 mountain ranges, which seem to cradle the historic town of Waynesville. The town has much to offer in the way of boutiques, galleries, museums, restaurants, craft breweries and coffee shops.
