The location was perfect. It had a brook on the side that made it so nice to sit back and listen to the water when we just relaxed in the hot tub. The decor inside was beautiful.

This place was dog friendly, so cute, and we loved the hot tub! It’s also not too far from some great hiking spots. It was clean and the owner responded to any questions we had within minutes. Great getaway for us and our dog!

The property was clean and beautiful views from the porch. If you are looking for peaceful, , serene relaxation then this is the spot for you. It’s not too far off the beaten path so a short drive will get you to Waynesville.

Secluded and Relaxing

The property was a lovely place to get away with just the two of us. We enjoyed the sound of the creek running by the duplex and the rustic feel. The internet could be spotty at times. Overall a wonderful place to spend time with each other and enjoy the countryside.

Really enjoyed the Canton villa!

We had a great stay for our tenth anniversary. Great yard for pets to run around. Asheville is a little bit of a drive but not too bad. I would recommend swapping out the mattress with something more comfortable and provide basic amenities like coffee and filters.

The only issue we had was not being able to control temperature ourselves but had to call the host to change it. The electric fireplace heater did not work. The hot tub was wonderful and we loved the privacy of it. A light over the sink in kitchen area would really be helpful. Peaceful, relaxing and we are enjoyed our get away.

Amazing Getaway

Year two staying here for our anniversary and we absolutely loved it as much as last year. It's a perfect setting! Waynesville and Canton are so beautiful and there's so much to do. We loved downtown Waynesville and walking all the shops and stores. Buttered Biscuit was a must again...both mornings for breakfast. Highly recommend for a getaway.

Great villa

The owners were very quick to respond to our questions. The only negative, is it wasn’t stated that this is a split/ shared cabin. We didn’t mind, and never saw the other guest. However we could hear them a bit, and they had control of the thermostat! The hot tub was great, after hiking in near by trials!

Peaceful, Beautiful Getaway!

Loved our Villa! It is beautiful inside and out! We would definitely stay again as long as it isn't too cold or hot outside, because Villa 1 does not have its own HVAC controls. It was chilly the nights/mornings we were there and we would have preferred to control our own thermostat. We did reach out to property manager our 2nd night and they communicated with the Villa next door where the controls are. This was only a minor inconvenience, so we would still recommend this Villa. The decor is beautiful, the hot tub is fantastic, and the bed is comfy!
