About this property
Cozy Renovated Mountain Escape, 10 min to downtown Waynesville & Lake Junaluska,
Prioritize your comfort at a hidden gem nestled in the trees of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Newly Renovated in March of 2025, this comfortable house boasts views of the mountains from the deck and patio, a full kitchen with a countertop bar, an open living room with a remote control gas fireplace and plenty of space for 6 people to relax comfortably.
This mountain escape includes 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The main floor features a full kitchen with a large countertop bar, comfortable living room, and dining room perfect for those dinners on the mountain. The daylight basement has a separate living room including a tv (great for kids!) along with a bedroom, efficiency kitchen, and bathroom. It also boasts its own private deck. This quiet, private neighborhood is a peaceful retreat where you can enjoy the sounds of the mountain, including the spring fed creek on the edge of the property.
If staying in is your thing, the 400mb/sec+ internet speeds means streaming your favorite TV show while working won't be a problem.
Relax in the cabin or around the firepit on the patio before making the short, 10 minute drive to downtown Waynesville for shopping or dinner. There are plenty of exciting attractions within a 30 minute drive if you want to adventure out including the Blue Ridge Parkway, Cataloochee Ski Resort and Ranch, The Wheels of Time Museum, Lake Junaluska, and even Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Dogs are allowed with a single pet fee of $44 for up to 4 dogs.

About the host
Hosted by Steven George
I visited the NC mountains for the first time in the mid-90s and was immediately hooked. As an avid mountain biker and hiker the area offers many great trails and plenty of local breweries to enjoy a cold snack afterwards.
I've been fortunate enough to share my piece of the mountains with guests as an airbnb/VRBO host since 2013.

Why they chose this property
I fell in love with this house the moment I walked onto the deck, saw the views and heard the creek burbling in the background. The house needed rescuing from the grips of Florida snowbirds. Now the property is a true mountain house with an open floor plan for socializing and an outdoor space you'd expect with a mountain property.
