Waynesville Week-end Get Away

The property location was fantastic. It was close and a convenient walk to everything in town. The only drawback is that it is on a very busy and noisy street corner.

Great location, but

We stayed here when it was owned by another person and really enjoyed the stay. This time we got there and one of the TV's was missing, a call to the manager got that resolved quickly but the person that put it in said we had to use our ROKU account to use the TV. The TV in the bedroom was already set-up with ROKU so not sure why we had to log on. One of the bedside lamps had no bulb, mentioned that but it wasn't resolved. Lamp in the living room went on and off on it's own, mentioned but unresolved as well. One of the chairs in the living room was very unstable and appeared to be on the point of breaking. Lastly the back door was extremely hard to lock/unlock and that was where the lockbox was. The place was clean and had plenty of dish/silver ware. This is a great place with the exception of the things listed above.

Cozy home right off Main Stret

This home that the owners have cleverly dubbed the “stones throw from Main” what is the perfect place to spend a week in the mountains of North Carolina. It was easy to walk to coffee, lunch and dinner. The home was well appointed and comfortable and perfect for my needs. Highly recommended!

Mountain Getaway

The location is in a great area. You can walk to downtown and be there in two minutes. If you need to grocery shop or make a run to Walmart it is a 5 minute drive. Only 20 minute drive or so to Asheville. Wonderful location. The views are awesome.

Dated, but efficient. The only thing lacking is washer/dryer, but it is a small house, so makes sense. Great location, good parking, comfy bed, even a garden grill and chairs.

Wonderful!

It’s small but exactly what I wanted. My son stayed with us for a couple of nights and my grandkids stayed on the futon, so while only 2 bedrooms, there was still plenty of room for us all. The fenced in yard was perfect for my 3 small dogs and it was convenient to everything. I would definitely stay here again.

Visit to Grandchildren

The home was great. It was perfectly sized for me and my husband. The house was so close to downtown (just around the corner); we had a great dinner at the Japanese restaurant. The kitchen, while tiny, was perfect for bacon and for appetizers when our family came over to visit. The host was very responsive. This home is very charming and we will book again. Strongly recommend.

Very Convenient

The location of the property is its biggest asset. It was just right for my wife and I and our pup. It is literally one block off Main Street.We could visit the shops downtown and return home when we needed to. Because of its location a “Stones Throw from Everyting” we expected traffic but it wasn’t much of a noise problem at all.

Great place to stay

The location was perfect, maybe one minute and you're walking the main drag in Waynesville. Quiet and safe. It feels almost isolated but you are downtown. Dog friendly with great dog fence. Clean. We spoke to a representative in person at arrival. She coached us on good restaurants and got us a reservation for exactly what my wife wanted a block or so away. The heating system: excellent for a cold day! We'll be back!

Living with mice

We loved the location and the accommodations were what we expected. A couple of days in, we saw a mouse run by while we were watching tv in the living room. We closed up where it went to and contacted the property manager a couple of times, and they never contacted us back nor did anything about it… The location is great, but mice in the home is too much for me.

Great location and dog friendly

The house was perfect for our 3 day trip. The fenced in back yard made in convenient for our 2 dogs. The location was nice with a great place to park and turn around. If you walked 100 feet, you were on the main drag of downtown Waynesville. Most every store had a dog friendly sign. We spoke with a property person who was very helpful and even got us a reservation for supper just minutes away. It was cool outside so I set the heat to 72; minutes later, the house was perfect. The neighborhood was perfect; we had great privacy with no worries. It sure beats a hotel.

Cute, Comfy and Close to Town

We knew the location and since dog friendly we knew it would be perfect for our quick jaunt to Waynesville. The house was very roomy and clean. Plenty of towels and a well stocked kitchen. It is an older home so it has its little quirks but that’s part of its charm. No dishwasher was no problem for us as washing a couple of mugs and cereal bowls was simple. A fenced area was a bonus. If it had been cooler we’d have enjoyed it more. If your goal is to be able to enjoy the shops and restaurants without driving your car, this is your place. We were pleasantly surprised that despite being on a busy street, we weren’t bothered by the noise. Maybe a rock house is a good insulator. Also, since no other homes are close, you can enjoy the TV and not worry if your dog decides to bark a bit. We had a small issue which was handled quickly and didn’t impact our visit much. The host was quick to respond. We will visit again.
