Beautiful home!

We have stayed at this home several times before - so not much is a surprise to us. We absolutely love the setting of this home - great views out to the mountains, it is in a quiet area and is extremely peaceful. The home is perfect for a large family or a couple small families! We had 6 adults and 4 kids - and it was awesome. Kids loved getting the chance to fish in the creek, played ball in the field and had a ton of fun. We will be back for sure!

Lovely Fall Views

The house was beautifully decorated and the kitchen well stocked with everything we needed. We had a great time and everyone enjoyed the house and neighborhood - relaxing, fishing, walking etc. The huge TV was great for football on Saturday afternoon. The fall color was perfect and the Maple tree near the deck provided a great autumn backdrop for our family pictures.

Serenity House Stay - Highly Recommended!!!

Our family of 5 had a week long stay in the "Serenity" house, and the unit is just incredible! The Check-in process was seamless, and the house is impeccable, stocked with everything that a family needs for a great stay. The views from the balcony were AMAZING and the grounds of the gated community were pristine. The living rooms (upstairs and downstairs) as well as the bedrooms are spacious with ample storage room and closets. It is decorated beautifully and practically...they thought of everything! There is plenty of natural light in the house, and although it feels remote, the location is close to EVERYTHING outdoors and the town of Sylva for shopping and dining. This house was a welcome respite from the Northeast, and a wonderful vacation home for our family. We can't recommend it enough!

Cullowhee Serenity Family Stay

Our three-generation family enjoyed this property so much. The management company was responsive to our requests. The property was perfect for adults and children (ages 9-14). It's a beautiful home and well-maintained. We enjoyed the deck for morning coffee, grilling and hanging out. The pool was a great addition for afternoon activity. We highly recommend this home.

Lovely stay at Serenity

My family had a lovely stay at Serenity. Not much beats the spectacular view of the Smokey Mountains from the deck on the main level, where we spent a lot of time. The house had everything we needed and was clean, spacious and comfortable. There were 2 en-suite bedrooms plus 2 other bedrooms and enough bathrooms to accommodate all of us. When we weren't hanging out on the deck, we hiked the Blue Ridge Parkway and the High Falls trail, shopped and visited craft breweries in Sylva and swam in the community pool down the hill. I can't wait to go back. I highly recommend this house, especially if you're visiting Western Carolina University which is only a few minutes away.

Serenity cottage

We shared Serenity cottage with friends for Open House weekend at WCU. The house was beautiful and very spacious,plenty of room to share family dinner, watch TV and play games. Serenity was even better than the pictures online. I highly recommend staying in this home! Sundog rentals were very helpful and quickly responded to any questions that I had prior to arrival.

Family Wedding Weekend at Serenity

Had a very nice weekend stay with family for a wedding in the area. The house was nicely appointed and had perfect space for visiting inside and outside on the back porch. Pleasant walking area down by the river. Couldn't get check-in info until the morning of which is understandable in a gated community, but was a little tricky to send to family coming in when cell service in the area was limited. Would stay there again if in the area.

Beautiful property! The kitchen was well stocked with basic spices, dish towels. Towels in all bathrooms. The only complaint we had was the bedroom in the lower level the queen bed needs a new mattress. Very clean, beautiful scenery!

Incredible vacation home

This home exceeded our expectations!! We ate all meals, had cocktail hour and even worked on our computers from the porch because the view of the mountains from the porch is outstanding. It is hard to look away from the view. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen is fully equipped (even had a Keurig for our morning coffee) and the home is "mountain elegance"(modern with mountain flare). Bonus- it is close to amazing hikes in Blue Ridge Parkway, Smokey Mountain National Park, Nantahala and Pisgah National Forest. We highly recommend this wonderful house for a mountain vacation.

Wonderful WCU move-in!

We met family at this home to help move our nephew into WCU. What an outstanding location and beautiful views! Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked (we cooked dinner each night). We loved the community walking/hiking trails and sitting on the back deck. Will definitely book a return visit here!

Amazing Cabin

We enjoyed our long weekend at Serenity. It is a beautiful place with a beautiful view. Very spacious. Wide covered decks. Plenty of room for everyone. Pool and trail were a great addition. Wish we could have stayed longer.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this mountain home. Internet service is a problem, though. Several in our group were unable to get service and for someone trying to do work, that is a problem.
