Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Boasting a prime location only five minutes away from downtown Waynesville and paved, easy access, this dog and family-friendly home is calling your name! Admire beautiful mountain views and beautifully landscaped surroundings from your wrap-around deck furnished with four comfortable rocking chairs, four loungers, and a BBQ grill for family cookouts. Step inside and you will be welcomed by a cozy open floor plan that seamlessly combines the eat-in, fully-equipped kitchen and living room into one comfortable space. The kitchen features all the essential appliances to prepare delicious meals and show your friends how much you appreciate them with a home-cooked meal. The dishwasher will take care of the dishes once mealtime is over and everyone can feel free to relax by the gas fireplace in the living room. Snuggle up in front of the fire and watch a favorite movie on the large flatscreen TV in front of you. You will be surrounded by lush nature, so why not admire it first hand from the furnished deck? Take in the views, breathe in the refreshing mountain air, and you will feel renovated right away. This home also comes equipped with a stackable washer/dryer for your laundry needs, a desk and desk chair in the main bedroom, which is a great addition considering this home offers free high-speed WiFi and Internet, and a firepit.
