Pet-Friendly Waynesville Retreat w/ Hot Tub!

It had a good view

Golden Acres View was a wonderful house for our mountain getaway. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for a great stay. The outdoor space and fenced yard were outstanding for our puppy. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well-equipped. The host provided many little touches that added to our stay. And the view! We would definitely stay again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Lots of room for the family. Lots of outdoor seating - porches, firepit, rocking chairs. We so enjoyed the back porch with the spectacular view of the mountains and enjoyed the daily visits of the birds and hummingbirds to the bird feeders. The property is very close to downtown Waynesville, so very convenient to shopping, restaurants, etc. Also, just a short drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway and so many spots for hiking, tubing, swimming, rafting, etc. Everything we needed was supplied; the house was well equipped for vacationers. Thanks for such a nice stay!

We had such an amazing time. We were beyond happy with this house. They really thought of everything. Everything could went when bringing your dogs, the fenced in side yard is huge and my dogs loved it, easily accessible too. Beautiful fire pit. We had breakfast on the top patio each morning with the sunrise, so beautiful, enjoyed the hot tub with a view while the dogs played outside, the host were very responsive. Very very clean and homey. So many nearby activities and waterfalls. Tons of great breweries and restaurants. We would love to stay here again!! :)

This place is amazing! The views are absolutely breathtaking, and being up on the mountainside really makes you feel like you’re surrounded by nature. It’s super close to Waynesville, so we had plenty of options for great restaurants, cute shops, and things to do nearby.The kitchen was fully stocked with everything my mom needed to whip up her favorite meals, which she loved. You can tell the house was put together with a lot of care—it feels so cozy and welcoming. The outdoor spaces were a highlight for us, with a firepit, a jacuzzi, and plenty of spots to sit and take in the scenery.There’s plenty to do inside too, with games like darts, board games, and puzzles. The bedrooms are really spacious, and the downstairs is basically its own little apartment, which is great for extra privacy. The owner was so kind and helped me figure out the indoor fireplace since I’m from Florida and had never used one before.Overall, it’s the perfect spot for a getaway—beautiful, relaxing, and close to everything in Waynesville!

We were a little hesitate heading to the NC mountains so soon after Helene but locals said Come on and we are so glad we did. As soon as we entered the door, it felt just like home. Every amenity you could possibly think of was available. And the VIEW, oh my, the mountains, the colorful trees, the beautiful afternoon sky, amazing. Our dogs had the best time too. This location is exceptional. Waynesville is just 10 min away, a quaint little shopping district and we happened to be there for the Apple Festival which was great, Cherokee about 30 min and Gatlinburg about an hour. Will definitely be back. Loved it!!!

We’ve rented in the Waynesville area for several years now, but we’ve never found a place we wanted to go back to until now! Let me first say that the owner is excellent with communication which is so important. He initially sent me a guide about the home right after I rented it. This guide was very helpful in planning our trip. This home is in an ideal location. It is only a few miles outside of Waynesville, and is easy to get to. We’re from Florida and some of the mountain roads up in the area can be downright narrow and scary. Not with this home. You will be on two lane lined road just about to the driveway. Plus it’s a couple minutes to the Smoky Mountain Expressway for trips to other NC towns. The entrance to the Blue ridge Parkway is very close by as well. Here were our favorite parts of our stay. The VIEW! For such an easy access the view from the upper and lower decks is incredible far mountain views . Each night we would sit out on the upper deck by the propane fire pit and watch the ever changing canvas of the mountains and the sky. The propane firepit was especially great because there were a few nights it was chilly. Having the entire firepit area covered is also a big plus that we haven’t always found in other rentals. Even on rainy days we were able to sit outside. The hot tub on the first level was wonderful. We golfed and hiked a good bit and it felt good to soak after an active day. There is an entire lower level but it was just my husband and I so we didn’t use this area but it was very large with a bedroom and bath.The owners bedroom was large. There was a dresser to store some clothes and a hanger bar as well. The bed was very comfortable and my husband who has back problems enjoyed a good nights rest. The owners bathroom is good and I liked having a stand alone shower vs a tub/shower. Having two sinks in the vanity was also a big plus. In summary, we are already booked for next year and can’t wait to return.

Beautiful view from deck Close to town and Blue Ridge Parkway for hiking trails Also enjoyed hot tub. Would stay again.

Just finished a week long stay at this amazing property! The hosts were great to deal with and have thought of just about every need you could have. Exceptional property for those vacation with dogs, house has 2 fenced in areas off the lower deck area as well as a dog bath in the garage. Wonderful views from the hot tub and the upper deck overlooking Waynesville valley! Very spacious inside with a great layout, never felt cramped even with a full house. Right in the center of everything- minutes outside of Waynesville center and about 30-40 minutes to everywhere else( Maggie Valley, Cherokee, Sylvia, Dillsboro, etc). Would highly recommend to anyone looking at this property and will be staying here again.

Stayed in the Fall and the colors were glorious. The house was like home. They could not make it anymore welcoming.

The views from this house are Awesome!!!. It was very accommodating. Everyone was very comfortable. Laid out very nice for someone using a wheelchair. Great space for the dogs. The towns around are very pet freindly. The owners were awesome to communicate with on any questions we may have had. Prior to arriving the owner sent text with different events going in the surroundng area. Would definately stay here again.
