Family weekend

Our family stayed in this lovely home with a beautiful view. We took the Polar Express in Bryson City with our children and grandchildren. We had cloudy and rainy weather but the home was complete with games for all ages. We would definitely stay again!

Lovely Fall Views

The house was beautifully decorated and the kitchen well stocked with everything we needed. We had a great time and everyone enjoyed the house and neighborhood - relaxing, fishing, walking etc. The huge TV was great for football on Saturday afternoon. The fall color was perfect and the Maple tree near the deck provided a great autumn backdrop for our family pictures.

Wonderful WCU move-in!

We met family at this home to help move our nephew into WCU. What an outstanding location and beautiful views! Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked (we cooked dinner each night). We loved the community walking/hiking trails and sitting on the back deck. Will definitely book a return visit here!

Amazing Cabin

We enjoyed our long weekend at Serenity. It is a beautiful place with a beautiful view. Very spacious. Wide covered decks. Plenty of room for everyone. Pool and trail were a great addition. Wish we could have stayed longer.

You don't want to miss this!

This cabin, wow! It was beautiful both inside and out. The cabin had everything we needed and more. The porch and the view was better than any picture you have seen. If you get a chance, you will definitely want to stay here. We are already discussing when we can come back.

Don't miss this one!

You'll keep thinking about this house long after you leave. Plenty of space for four couples. Exceptionally clean. Great kitchen. You'll find it hard to pull yourself away from the back deck with its outdoor fireplace and fabulous long-range and valley views. On top of all that, the owner, Andy, was a pleasure to work with. We'll be back!

Clean and comfy home, gorgeous views

This property was everything we wanted in our socially-distanced getaway. Since we planned to stay in the house and not go out shopping or visiting locally, we wanted something a little more upscale and comfortable than usual. This property delivered. The fireplace on the roomy porch (with tons of seating) was perfect for our cool autumn evenings and the sunrise view across the tops of the mountains was picture perfect. If you stay here, make sure to walk down the drive to see the babbling mountain creek below. The whole neighborhood is gorgeous. There’s also a small playground next to the neighborhood club house that was a life saver for our cooped up kiddos. If I could give six stars, I would.

We loved our stay in this gorgeous, comfortable and clean mountain home

Our family of 9 spent the week after Christmas here and had such a wonderful experience. The home had everything we needed (well, minus a potato masher, LOL). Plenty of towels and comfy beds. Wine glasses and a 12 cup coffee maker. A beautiful misty mountain view. It was the perfect place for our busy family to unwind, relax and reconnect. The owner, Andrew, was very helpful during the booking process, quick to reply to questions, and checked in with us via email to see if we had any issues once we arrived. One thing to note- there is WiFi, however it is extremely slow. But that was a blessing, as it made it easy for us all- teens included- to put down our phones and enjoy the moment.

Perfect Mountain Retreat

Wow!! What a perfect mountain retreat. We loved our time at this beautiful home. We lived out in the deck. The views from the deck are stunning. It's like you're in the middle of the national forest, but you have the security of being in a gated community. Plus there isn't a long, narrow, twisty turny mountain road to get there. Access is easy, which is really important for someone like me who gets carsick really easily. We visited the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway, both of which are not far. And we enjoyed the restaurants fairly close by in Sylva and Dillsboro. We didn't do much cooking. It was vacation after all. The home was clean, comfy and well stocked. The pictures and description make this place sound nice, but it's even better in person. We can't wait to go back.

Perfect family vacation

The perfect balance of solitude and action. Once you get into the home you forget that you have neighbors. But if you want to shop or go to a restaurant, you're a 15 minute drive away. We plan on making this an annual trip and we'll be looking to rebook this home as long as its available.

Very nice home with tons of storage, lots of room, clean, comfortable.The views are spectacular, the pool was lovely and clean.Bring body wash, shampoo, trash bags, and laundry detergent, if you plan a visit of more than two days! Teen grandsons loved the place and things to do nearby. They went water rafting and they rented a boat for Glenville Lake which is the prettiest, cleanest lake! There are brochures in the house for attractions. We had a couple fronds come to visit us while there; they were impressed with the home.Having the separate living/sleeping area was perfect for our daughter, hubby, and two sons in the evening.

The views of the mountains from the porch are spectacular. Very peaceful location. The creek and the infinity pool were a big plus for the kids. Kitchen and bathrooms were immaculate.

Beautiful home!

We have stayed at this home several times before - so not much is a surprise to us. We absolutely love the setting of this home - great views out to the mountains, it is in a quiet area and is extremely peaceful. The home is perfect for a large family or a couple small families! We had 6 adults and 4 kids - and it was awesome. Kids loved getting the chance to fish in the creek, played ball in the field and had a ton of fun. We will be back for sure!
