Great place close to WCU

We enjoyed the house while attending orientation for our daughter at WCU. It was close, and the other kids were able to hang out there and enjoy nature, tv and the beauty of the mountains. I hope to go back.

Delightful stay

This is such a wonderful base camp for exploring the Appalachian side of the state. Restaurant are good in Sylva and Dillsboro. Mornings on the porch with a cup of coffee are the best!!!

WNC visit

We took a weekend trip to visit WNC for my son. This was a great choice as the house is near the school and offered outdoor recreation for my family. The house is beautiful and sits right on the water. We did not encounter any issues and enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Very nice place, quiet, peaceful.

This was a lovely house with beautiful views of the river and a gorgeous screen room that was the equivalent of another dining room, living room, and sitting area. Access and directions were easy to follow and it’s very close to charming little, downtown Sylva and right next door to Western Carolina University, but still very private. Nice, private neighborhood and beautiful new build surrounding houses. The only reason the home didn’t get a 5 was because when we went to use the fireplace, it didn’t work. It also didn’t have any daily use kitchen items like oil, sugar, spices and whatnot which I’ve never been in a rental that didn’t have those sorts or things so I’m not sure if I’ve just been lucky or if these things are not the norm. Overall, I would stay here again, clean, neat, and cleaning supplies and some limited toiletries were provided.

Great location, tight space but well laid out

Great outdoor living space on the screened in porch overlooking the river. Quiet neighborhood that feels secluded. The house is very well suited to accommodating several adults, but the bunk beds are quite tightly packed and may not be comfortable for some.

Home away from home

The property is well maintained with plenty of modern appliances and entertainment devices. Walking in we immediately felt welcomed. The view and location were prefect. The only downside was the spring mattress made it hard to sleep comfortably through the night. Aside from that, our stay was wonderful and the recharge we were looking for.

Fabulous

The pictures of this house and property don't do it justice!! The outside is so cute and well maintained but the inside is quaint, clean and inviting. It was small but for 3 people it was all we needed. The porch is the best part. The porch overlooks the Tuckaseegee and to sit out there and play games and talk and laugh and hear the rolling water was just what we needed for relaxation!! We all hated to leave!!!

Work/vacation trip

Very lovely place. Not too difficult to find. It was actually a relaxing work trip. The sound of the river and the back porch was a delight. Only strange thing was all the cameras. We are therapists so we were analyzing how the cameras actually induce fear instead of safety. That had a prison feel. I know ppl in the states love their house cameras but we are seeing in our research in trauma that it actually dysregulates your nervous system.
