Haywood County is full of locally owned farmer's markets with locally grown seasonal foods and crafts.

We needed a respite from some major medical issues we’re battling, and wanted to enjoy some of the final fall mountain beauty. This super pet friendly creekside cabin was close and convenient to wonderful downtown Waynesville; the Greenway and numerous other parks; nearby Winchester Creek Alpaca Farm; Barber Orchard, and Lake Junaluska. Our stay was perfect in every way. The vintage, but tastefully updated cabin was roomy, but cozy; spotless and bright – with very comfortable living room furniture and the best king bed with wonderful linens! The park-like setting provided a secluded feel; and the large deck (with child/pet gates and comfortable seating) overlooked the sweetly babbling stream. We especially enjoyed cooking most of our meals in the spacious and wonderfully equipped/stocked kitchen. It was very hard to leave and we can’t wait to return! Most of all, we can’t thank enough, Tammy and Scott. Their guest service commitment was obvious from our 1st inquiry and throughout our stay. They have well-earned their Premier Host designation!

We truly enjoyed our stay! The unit was beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. Everything we could possibly need was provided, which made our visit comfortable and stress-free. We especially appreciated the thoughtful extra touches from the owners — coffee, sugar, creamers, snacks, and beverages were all waiting for us. These small details made us feel welcome and at home.We would be happy to return and highly recommend this property to others.

This is a charming “updated” 40’s farmhouse. It’s very well stocked and furnished and clean. We respect and appreciate the history of this home as well as the caretakers and owners along the way. It’s close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, which was important to us on this vacation. We really enjoyed the outdoor sitting area and the sound of the water trickling down the stream. Couldn’t ask for a better place. Would not hesitate to return.

Fantastic stay

The place was very nice. It was clean, which is very important to me. What first caught my eye to book was the creek- which was amazing. You can sit on the large beautiful, and comfortable porch and hear it. It’s so relaxing. The home was fantastically equipped with convenient things (such as in the kitchen) that you have at home but would miss traveling if you don’t have them. Cathy was wonderful! She answered my questions lightning fast and was so very nice. She knew I was nervous driving in a mountainous area (I’m from Florida), and she assured me there weren’t any hazardous roads that would be dangerous to navigate at night when not familiar with the area. She actually texted me to make sure we’d arrived safely. She was very, very kind. I stayed with my husband and my two young children (10 and 7). They loved it here, especially playing outside by the creek. It was a wonderful experience and we had a fantastic time. Also, everything is nearby! There’s a Walmart literally 5 minutes away. There’s a Publix nearby. You feel like you’re away from the city but you have those conveniences close by. You won’t regret staying here. Cathy, thank you for all of your help and the wonderful stay. We would stay here again!

Great sister trip

My sisters and I are always looking for great places to stay for long weekends and getaways. I stayed at this house this past summer with my best friend and knew it had to go on the list for a sister trip which we did this past weekend. It's such a cozy cottage with an absolutely fabulous front porch for enjoying a cup of coffee and conversation. A perfect little getaway.

Golfing in Waynesville

Terrific weekend in the Waynesville area with an old college roommate from Chicago. We enjoy the area, had great food and played 4 wonderful golf courses all within 30 miles. The cottage was very cozy and the owners were very responsive. My only suggestion would be to slightly upgrade the TV offerings beyond YouTube so that college football fanatics like us have all the game choices. Otherwise it was a beautiful setting, the beds were extremely comfortable and I hope to come back in the future.

A Lil Piece of Heaven

We love this cabin! The location, the thoughtful amenities provided, the charm, the creek and the comfort of a home away from home. They’ve thought of everything! The porch sitting was excellent, providing sightings of hummingbirds, cardinals and other birds plus a beautiful doe strolled through the yard! Downtown Waynesville is minutes away. We explored wild flower farms, an Alpaca farm with other unique animals including a “banded cow” like you see in coastal Maine. Fresh produce and Apple fritters at Barbers Orchards! Lots of side trips within an hour away. A most excellent adventure! We’ll be back.

Another good time was had another good time was had!

This was our second time staying here so that should tell the story about our satisfaction. A nice little cabin with country appeal and very clean upon arrival. Cathy, the owner, always communicates promptly if there are any concerns and I very cordial. She has done a fabulous job of stocking the place with any amenities that you may have forgotten. Cabin is very convenient to groceries and other shopping and restaurants with Hazelwood being only 5 to 10 minutes away. The Fall colors are beautiful in the area in October so give this place a try! As the Terminator once stated...I'll Be Back!!!!!

This cottage is such a gift and I want to thank the owner for sharing it. I would be so content to live in this house in this location. The porch is a dream. Comfortable rocking chairs, the sound of the creek and a cup of coffee was how I spent the weekend. The inside of the house was cozy and perfect. There's absolutely nothing to say except don't hesitate because you've found the one.

Quaint Romantic Cottage on Creek

This is an amazing cottage nestled into a mountainside with a beautifully landscaped creek in front. Everything is immaculate from the exterior to the interior. Sitting on the deck on the front of the cottage and listening to the creek is a very relaxing experience. The inside is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. This is mine and my husband's second stay here, and both times have been wonderful. Tom and Cathy have provided everything and then some for a more than comfortable and convenient stay. Easy to book and communicate with them also. We can't wait to stay here again.
