Terrific location and cozy bungalow

Cozy bungalow with a great backyard and terrific location to Hazelwood and downtown Waynesville. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit, and the big TV in the living room was perfect for our toddler.

Wonderful Waynesville, NC

This was a very nicely located and comfortable place for our group. A bit of a distance from our conference location, but we managed to make our twice daily trips very well. Great location to downtown for shopping and very convenient to lots of restaurants. Several favorites especially the Main Street diner. Close proximity for grocery shopping. We enjoyed our time. We do visit every year, and will return in 2025!

Hidden Gem

This bungalow is a hidden gem and even better in person. Great location and extremely clean. Many thoughtful touches. The back deck is spacious with a fenced yard. The front porch has a great view and is perfect for morning coffee. Spacious yet cozy. We will definitely be booking again next summer.

Porch life

This house is in a nice neighborhood with friendly neighbors. It has a fantastic deck and also porch with a fenced in area the dogs loved. Spent a lot of time outside on a rocker in the front or on the back deck. Parking is great as well. The interior is comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. There were treats for humans and dogs sitting out. The master bedroom was comfy, spacious as well as the bathroom for the master. Great communication from the owner and they were available if needed. Thank you for a wonderful vacation experience.
