A Little Piece Of Heaven
Could not have ask for a nicer place to vacation nor a nicer property manager! Peg and her husband were the best! This place was so comfortable in every way. The large porch had a secure railing around making it nice for you and your pets to be able to enjoy the outside. Step outback to a fairly private backyard with a beautiful babbling creek! The sound was so restful, making for a totally relaxing and romantic evening! Lots to see and do, great places to eat! All within a very short driving distance. Can’t go wrong with this unit!

Very comfortable stay
Everything lived up to the description. Kitchen very well stocked with pans, cutlery and dishes. I appreciated some options for storage since those are often lacking in rental properties. I also appreciated the shampoo etc in the bathrooms. The best part is the deck and creek. I really appreciated that the porch is gated at both ends so I didn’t have to worry about my dog running off. That gave him some freedom and me peace of mind. Everything worked fine but I would recommend adding instructions to the welcome book for the dishwasher as it took me a bit to figure it out.

Woodland & Creek Oasis
Wonderful visit to the North Carolina Mountains The cabin was clean & tidy and cozily furnished. My girlfriend, doggy & I all enjoyed every moment on the property. The highlight was definitely having breakfast & dinners on the back porch area with the babbling creek just maybe 20 or so feet away

Enjoyable Stay
The description of the rental was on point. Loved it. No smells and was like new. The mountain stream was nice even though it was too cold outside to enjoy sitting on the porch. Hope to visit again.

Absoulety Wonderous Place
We did a short 2-night visit to see the Biltmore during Christmas. Really wished I booked their place for a few more nights. First and most importantly we would like to thank Ms. Peg for the ability to bring our puppies with us, they are family and mean everything to us. To rent such a wonderful place which is pet friendly was amazing. Everything from the furnishings to the property was whimsical and amazing. I have rented places in the NC mountains high up with great views; however, this place was amazing, and I preferred much more due to the location and ease of access compared to steep incline, goose bump driveways. I will be returning to rent this place several times as long as they hopefully have it listed to do so. Almost not wanting to leave such a great review out of jealously someone may have this place other than me! We look extremely forward to returning and exploring more of Waynesville and the Ashville area, to include Cherokee which I heard is not too far from this wonderful place. Thank you again Ms. Peg we will be seeing you very soon again. This place deserves 10 stars not 5.
