    The home was very clean and check in was easy, however, the wifi did not work for us the entire time we stayed and the management company and owner did not rectify it. We communicated through messages and telephone calls, but no wifi.

    There were a few things that we were disappointed with. You can not see the mountains from this house. It's like sitting in your living room at home. It is in a very quiet neighborhood. So it was a nice get away, I just wanted to be able to see mountains. Also the pillows are very flat. They need to be replaced. The sheets did not fit the king bed and they kept coming off. The porch lights(party lights) 1/2-3/4 are burned out. FYI Also We arrived at 3 o'clock. I know check in is at 4. We text, and asked if we could check in early. We had a 4 o'clock appointment so we just wanted to put our things down and leave. We were told no. I thought maybe they were cleaning the house , we went to check to see if we could find the property, no one was there. At that point, I wondered why we couldn't check in.

    Great place! Loved how clean it was and the master bed was comfortable. A couple of observations: change out the master bathroom fan as it is loud and doesn’t work well; box fan in master bedroom- knob is stripped and can’t change speed; and the hot water kettle in the kitchen wouldn’t work. Thanks!

    The house was in a great location, short drive to the lake. They had a lot of puzzles and games to do which we loved and it was very clean!

    Our family enjoyed staying at this lovely house at Lake Junaluska. It was clean and had ample space for what we needed as a home base. We loved spending time in the beautiful town of Waynesville and mountains nearby.

    The home was supplied with all we needed with great parking. The location was perfect for Waynesville, Maggie Valley, Blue Ridge Parkway and surrounding areas. Easy access to Cherokee and the Smokies.

    Nice place to stay. Well appointed kitchen, plenty of plates and cups for all. Smelled a little doggy but that is to be expected as it is a pet friendly listing (we don't have a pet). The bed in the master was too firm for my liking, but the other beds were comfy. The kids enjoyed the bunk beds. Nice big t.v. in the main living area. Outdoor porch is very good place to sit and enjoy the outdoors. Nice cool A/C inside. Great off street parking. Just a reminder for all who stay here DO NOT PUT OUT YOUR TRASH. It has to stay in the laundry/bathroom due to bears in the area.

    The house and location were great. However, the main door keypad stopped working on day 2 and was pretty annoying and inconvenient…that needs to be fixed/addressed.

    The listing states there is a pool shared by the community. I reached out multiple times to find this pool and no one could help me. I also tried to find the amenities offered and no one could help with that, either. I booked this home from what was on the listing as I have children and they would have enjoyed what the home had to offer, but I received no assistance in finding them.

    We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was nice and clean. Lake Junaluska was beautiful! Waynesville and Maggie Valley had lots of shopping and restaurants. SOCO falls was cool and the views on the blue ridge parkway were amazing.
