We came up for a girl's weekend and chose this house because we had stayed in it before and it suited our purposes again. The kitchen is well appointed and we loved the deck/porch areas for sitting out. The driveway is steep but there is lots of turnaround space at the top, which makes it easy to get back out again. We love the area around Lake Junaluska and Waynesville and this space was just what we needed for our base of operations.

We enjoyed our stay. The house was spacious and comfortable. A great location, it was very clean. There were a few very small things. The chair in the living was broken and did not stay up on one side. A seam on the coach was spilt. Some of the bed linens while clean, were well worn and had some stains. Again, a great time was had by all, thank you!

Perfect Mountain Getaway!

This property was absolutely perfect for our family! We had plenty of space to stretch out. House is tucked away and private yet close to all amenities. Enjoyed exploring around the lake. Would definitely stay again!

House on a hill with a view

Great house for larger families or multiple families. Plenty of space to spread out and relax. Loved the porches and patios. Kitchen was well appointed and had lots of space to work in. We didn't get to use the fire pit since it was nearly 90 degrees while we were there but it would have been fun

House on a hill with a view

Nice house! Especially good for larger families or multiple families/couples. Pretty well appointed across the board-everything is labeled in the kitchen for ease of putting things back in place. Porches and patios were especially lovely in the mornings to watch the fog burn off the mountains.

Fantastic rental

Beautifully decorated and furnished. It has the best stocked kitchen I have ever seen. It has everything you could ask for. The private areas available (porches) were lovely places to sit and read. The beds were so comfortable we hated to leave them. We will be back for sure.

Great family getaway home

This home was so well equipped with everything we needed. The lot is very private with a great view. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen has a surplus of supplies, the seating and dining area were great for a group, and the outside covered areas were all used. We hope to come back soon. We have grown children and grandchildren and they all loved it.

Home with a view

Balsam View was roomy, we had plenty of seating, there were 10 of us total. A couple of friends also came to visit one evening and we still had room for everyone. This home also has a spectacular view of the mountains. We were there in October and the leaves were turning.

Wonderful home at the top of the hill

This is a wonderful home just a short drive from the lake. It is at the top of the hill above Junaluska with a magnificent view of Cold Mountain. The layout is fantastic for a large family. We especially enjoyed the chairs around the fire pit. You can walk to the lake, but it is uphill on the return. We found it very easy to drive approximately 2 minutes to the rose walk to park and stroll.

Music and Mountains

We were there for Music Week sponsored by The Fellowship of Worship Artists. We’ve stayed in many properties over the years and really enjoyed this one. It rained all week but we were able to get in one fire pit with s’mores. Great amenities, good beds, great water pressure with updated bathrooms! Loved the decor. Family retreat with nice views. Hopefully it won’t rain so much next year!

It was pretty decent. I'd stay there again. No complaints other than getting programming on the TVs is a hassle. And upstairs TV didn't work.
