About the host

Hosted by Eric

Host profile image
We fell in love with this mountain area years ago while visiting friends for a weekend. My wife and I moved full time to our home here outside of Hayesville in 2016. It was a second home for us, until we decided to leave city life for good. We recently purchased the property listed here and renovated the home. We now have miles of well-groomed walking trails along the creek and through the woods. We decided to open the property to short term rentals to share the beauty of the land rather than leave it sitting empty.

Why they chose this property

This is a beautifully renovated 1940's Bungalow with all new HVAC, appliances, and furniture. It is a cozy little house with modern amenities. Walk out the backdoor and enter a secluded wooded 20 acres with walking trails along the creek and sitting areas scattered along the trails as they wind their way through Mountain Laurels, Rhododendrons, towering hardwoods and Eastern Pines. It's like being in your own little slice of National Forest all to yourself. With nearby attractions such as Lake Chatuge, Nantahala Forest, Casinos, waterfalls, Appalachian Trail, and many dining options...Laurel Woods is the perfect property to launch from and visit all the scenes that the mountains have to offer.

What makes this property unique

Go out and have fun in the mountains then return to this peaceful property and unwind along the creek and trails to rest up for your next adventure...or simply stay at home with your own little paradise to enjoy. Best of both worlds.
