The property was clean, and beautifully decorated. It was in a great location for skating, tubing, and going out to eat with family. On the nights we stayed in there was ample cooking supplies and well-stocked spices.

We had an amazing time in this beautiful house. It was clean, very well stocked, and the baby proofing was ideal! We couldn't have asked for a better house and host. 10/10 would highly recommend and return!
Easygoing and respectful guests—an absolute pleasure to host! We’re so glad they enjoyed the house and appreciated the simplicity. Maggie would happily welcome them back anytime! 🧚♀️🏡✨
Our group of extended family across three generations had a lovely stay at Casa De La Mijenta. It truly felt like we were staying in someone’s lovingly cared for and thoughtfully decorated home. The beds were comfortable, there were games and activities for the kids, the kitchen was well-stocked. The home was spotlessly clean. We usually drove down the hill and parked in the gravel spots by the walking bridge to quickly access the lake activities. We would definitely return to this home in the future.

This home was everything we needed for a beautiful stay for my daughter’s college graduation this weekend. It accommodated everyone with comfort. The host was easy to contact and answered quickly when we reached out. Wonderful quiet location. Driveway is steep so be prepared for parking. I would recommend this home to everyone and would love to visit again.

Your property was outstanding! Truly the BEST we have ever stayed at in 17 years of coming to this area! WE REALLY valued the cleanliness, style and class it has! The only difficult part was we traveled with a very active senior and the uneven section of your front porch entry stairs were a challenge… it unfortunately caused our dearest Pastor friend to fall & get hurt. Please repair the front steps when you can so no one else gets injured. We LOVED everything else about your beautiful & CLEAN home and hope to book it again! Thank you!

Our family spent 5 days and 4 nights at Casa De La Mijenta. We had a wonderful time. Plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed our scenic walks to Lake Junaluska.
On July 4th we enjoyed a spectacular fireworks show at the Lake.
Everything had been thought of to make our stay great even down to roasting sticks for hotdogs and marshmallows over the firepit.
We will definitely return to Casa De La Mijenta if we plan another trip to Lake Junaluska. Would love to see it in the fall.
Book this home you will not be disappointed.
