Fall getaway

My husband and I just wanted a quick fall getaway and Junaluska is always a wonderful place. This property is just amazing. Great kitchen and porch. Also, we actually watched tv because of the baseball playoffs and reception was so good. Honestly, can’t wait to come back.

A nice getaway at the lake

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lake Junaluska. The apartment was clean, spacious, and quiet. The owner is very responsive and made sure everything went smoothly for our stay. (He even mailed us a stuffed animal that our sone had left by mistake!). There are many things to do around the lake and golf course just across the street. Very convenient to Waynesville and Maggie Valley. A nice place to unwind and relax. Thanks for your hospitality!

About the host

Hosted by Larry Starne

Host profile image
I am retired from a 50+ year banking and investment career. Originally from NC, but have lived and worked in Florida most of my life. We now live in Florida half the year where I enjoy vegetable gardening and investment strategy planning, and at Lake Junaluska the other half of the year. We have five children, three grand children and one great grand child! My brother, who lives near Lake Junaluska is a retired United Methodist Minister who had long encouraged my wife and me to buy a home there and experience the beauty and outdoor activities of the area. My wife, Rhonda is a retired Clinical Dietition who loves hiking.
It gives me great pleasure to host visiters and hear their happiness with our guest apartment. We are blessed with many five star reviews which we greatly appreciate. Our cleaning professional, Angie, is outstanding. We always hear great praise of how sparkling clean the apartment is. Our goal is to exceed your expectations and for you to have one of your best experiences and accommodations of your traveling life!
Your host,
Larry Starnes

What makes this property unique

Aside from the very private and peaceful setting, our property is unique down to the fact that every thing you need is provided and is upscale, right down to the plush towels and Kuerig name brand coffee provided.
