Beautiful home and wonderful views. The home is very spacious and was perfect for our family. Our kids loved the game room and the hill to roll down. The host were very kind, helpful and responsive. Would definitely recommended to others.
This is a beautiful home. More than we expected. Clean, spacious, beautifully decorated, gorgeous view and close to everything we needed. The host messaged me with all the information I needed plus suggestions for local places to eat. Our host provided so many extras we weren’t expecting. We will be booking again in the future.
Excellent property. Everything was clean (including baseboards, lights etc which is rare). Updated, modern, and so many wonderful accommodations - soaps, dishes, etc. We really enjoyed our time here and the hosts were very attentive and helpful.
Wonderful, well appointed property with lots of room. Great location with awesome views. Super easy process to rent, check in and out. Responsive hosts. Highly recommended.

Thank you! We hope you will consider staying with us again on your next visit.
This property is exactly as listed. The attention to detail to make your stay as comfortable as possible is amazing. Our only regret was not being able to stay longer! We definitely want to come back in the future.
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home with Amazing views and sunsets. An easy drive and literally minutes to Publix and downtown Waynesville or Maggie Valley and the Cataloochee Ranch for an incredible meal. It was an easy short drive to the entrance of the Blueridge Parkway. The Wraparound porch was so nice and we took advantage of the blackstone grill for nightly cookouts. The owners hospitality was exceptional and the peace and quiet was just what we needed. We will definitely keep this for home future visits to family. This place is truly special!

We are so glad you had an enjoyable stay. Your pictures are fabulous. We hope you will consider staying again in the future.
The view from the front porch on this home is amazing - I could basically live on the porch. It’s as beautiful on the inside as it is the outside. Also, you are in the country and still 10 minutes from downtown. Perfect house in a perfect location. This one will definitely go on my revisit list.
This property was exceptional!!! The home and furnishings were lovely and the view was amazing. I have stayed in many vacation rentals throughout the years, and I can truly say that this is the best one ever. We felt so welcomed the moment we entered the home. The host went above and beyond in providing everything we could ever hope for! From the array of snacks, everything needed for delicious coffee, paper products, toiletries, linens - I could go on and on. The kitchen was stocked with any and every item you would ever need. This is also the cleanest home I’ve ever stayed in. Also, every question that I had - and I had several - were quickly answered by the host. The thoughtfulness and consideration of the host was unsurpassed by any other experience I have had at other rentals. I hope to stay in this home many more times in the future!

Thank you so much for the kind words. We are so glad you had an enjoyable stay with us. We look forward to hosting you again in the future.
We are John and Melissa Brooks. We love our beautiful mountain town and all that Western North Carolina has to offer. We enjoy hiking, fishing, and being outdoors whenever possible. Because we are both Western North Carolina natives, we are very familiar with the area. We are always happy to answer any questions and provide you with suggestions for activities and outings. Our home is located on a neighboring property. We strive to be accommodating, but also not intrusive. We hope you will consider our property your home away from home.
Why they chose this property
This property has been in Melissa's family for generations. It is a picturesque country setting that offers extremely easy access with amazing views.
What makes this property unique
The property is centrally located within minutes to shopping, dining, and outdoor activities. The long-range views from the wraparound porch are amazing, along with the gorgeous sunsets. The rural setting is also perfect for stargazing, and in the summer months, the fireflies put on quite the show.
