Recent Western North Carolina guest reviews

Clean, cozy, comfortable, and updated, this unit had super easy access to the slopes! We loved it!
Zoe A. | Dec 2025
Beautiful cabin and a great location for staying in Boone! Our dogs were so comfortable and felt right at home as soon as we arrived! We’d love to come back some time!
Morgan H. | Dec 2025
The four of us had a great week. We appreciated the well equipped kitchen, a nice dinnerware and utensils, and the large comfortable dining table. Upstairs bedrooms and baths were both comfortable and roomy, and we particularly loved the strong water pressure in the showers. Being so close to Waynesville’s downtown area was also a plus, and we all took pleasure in shopping on Main Street and also eating at the Chop House one night. You have a very nice vacation home and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
