It was the perfect place to enjoy time with the family. The decor was perfect, beds were comfy, kitchen had everything needed to cook and entertain. Loved the back porch where you can hear the sound of the stream flowing by. A perfect mountain getaway to relax and enjoy family time.

Nice clean place near downtown Sylva & WCU

Pleasant stay with clean, safe location. Easy in and out process. Didn't realize this was managed by another third party vacation rental manager and was a bit surprised by the cleaning fee & extra fees, but overall it was fine.

Exactly as promised

This home was perfect for a short getaway just over 2 hours from Atlanta. All the appliances were brand new and hi end. We enjoyed meals cooked on the gas grill and sitting out on the porch with the fire pit on. Management was great: when we arrived on Christmas Eve the lp gas tank was empty so we called the office and within an hour they brought us a full tank. The house was fully equipped for cooking. We definitely would recommend this vacation home if you are okay with a house (not a cabin) in a regular subdivision.

Home is gorgeous.

Home is gorgeously updated. We spent a lot of time on the back porch enjoying the creek. Security and safety was breached. Dried poop on toilet. Faucet in kitchen was broken almost to the point of not being able to use it. House wreaked of what I believe was a heavy curry smell. Only thing I received was apologies.

Nice location, needs work.

When we arrived on a Tuesday, the house was basically in order. Beds were clean as well as bathrooms, but the house is in need of a deep clean and routine maintenance. It appears that there is no inspection before guest arrival. A screen from one of the windows was laying in the yard, the garage, where the ping pong table is located, had not been swept in quite some time, as well as the porch. The twinkle lights on the porch had fallen to the floor and cushions were also on the floor as an example of no inspection. After cleaning up, we sat down to watch a little tv and it did not work. A call was placed to report the problem and we were told that the local agent would be in touch. Chat, call after call, and still no update until Friday when the local agent texted that she had just gotten in to work. This does not seem like a good business model to refer a problem to someone who is actually not available to fix the problem. We were reimbursed for the loss of amenity but it would have gone a long way to have received a return call during our stay and multiple attempts to determine what was being done.

The home was better than expected! It's located in a quiet and beautiful area and is super close to the historical part of Sylva. The hose was super clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. They thought of every little detail which even included coffee filters which we completely didnt think of lol. Sitting in the enclosed back deck and listening to the stream was very peaceful! The communication with the host was very good! I highly recommend this place if you plan on staying in Sylva! If i could give it a higher rating I would! It gets a 20/10 from me!

We absolutely loved this home away from home. It was clean and cozy. The outdoor space was very relaxing as you could hear the small flowing creek in the backyard. Communication with the host on check in/out was flawless. If we find ourselves back in Sylva, and need a place to stay, it will be here. Definitely will be recommending this home to our friends.

Plenty of Room

We stayed here due to a volleyball tournament in Cherokee. We wanted a house rather than stay in a hotel for the weekend. It was an easy 15/20 minute drive over there. There was plenty of space for us (family of 4).

Sweet Lane Cottage in Sylva, NC

We love the convenience of this vacation rental. Just a short drive into the quaint town of Sylva. It is a very quiet lane that this house sits on n the neighbors seem pleasant. This is the 2nd time that that our group has stayed at this house. Except for a few minor housekeeping issues. This is a Great Find ‼️ Donna Ball-Metcalf November 1st, 2024

Nice!

This is such a comfortable house - the furnishings and bedding were wonderful! The location is prime; just a few minutes away from the shops and restaurants of both Sylva and Dillsboro. Had it been warmer, the screened porch with the babbling brook would have been a fantastic place to spend a lazy afternoon. We only used the coffee maker and refrigerator, however all appliances seemed top notch. There was an issue with the heating system (most likely due to it being the first time turning the heat on since last spring), but we navigated it.

Just as advertised

House was clean & very comfortable. Good location to get to restaurants, grocery. Enjoyed the sunlights in living room. Didn’t like paying the management group over & above the VRBO fees. Won’t stay there again for that reason.
