My sister and I had an amazing stay in ValdeseThe house was very clean and smelled amazing! It was conveniently located to restaurants and a wonderful coffee shop. Food Lion was only a short drive down the road, which was very convenient. The beds and couch were super comfortable as well, and it was overall very homey. We very much enjoyed sitting on the front porch, listening to the birds and watching the sunset. I would highly recommend staying here and I will most likely be back in the future!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This house is just a block from the Main Street which was very convenient. My kids enjoyed the park that was just a few yards away. The host was very helpful with all of our needs and we very much appreciated it. We will definitely stay here again!

Loved it!

We were extremely happy with everything about our stay here. Cozy and peaceful describe it perfectly. Close to so much but still private and my sister, niece and I felt very safe as well. The host was very nice and easy to communicate with. The extra little touches throughout the house were much appreciated. We will definitely be coming back!

We loved staying in Donna's home in Valdese, NC. It was clean, comfortable, and close to Lenoir Rhyne University where we went to a football game. The neighborhood was quiet and safe too. There was a playground right down the street which our granddaughter loved. We ate at JD's Barbeque and had ice cream and milkshakes at Myra's. There were a lot of good restaurants close by. Donna went the extra mile leaving us snacks and a special Lenoir Rhyne treat which was so thoughtful. We will be back to stay when we come back to the area to visit.

Most immaculate, well equipped and appointed vacation stays ever!

The small town of Valdese is cute and has some great things to see and do but this little bungalow is amazing! All the furnishings and appointments were clean, attractive and uncluttered. Everything felt brand new! Great snacks and water provided as well as thoughtful toiletrie additions in the bathroom. An easy 5star rating for sure!!

About the host

Hosted by Donna Zamora

Host profile image
Hi! My name is Donna and I am from the Hickory area. I lived several years and currently work in Valdese and fell in love with its hometown warmth and people. My work has always been in the hospitality field so hosting short terms rentals is Definity a love of mine.

Why they chose this property

As I mentioned in my bio, I've lived in and work here and it's hard to find the small town warmth and welcome like there is in Valdese. Valdese holds many annual festivals and activities where you an just walk downtown and enjoy it with no safety concerns.
We welcome you with open arms to Valdese NC!

What makes this property unique

Peaceful, Cozy and Convenient is just what it's named- Peaceful, Cozy and Convenient.
Valdese is a quiet town and the home just has that home feel to it...like a home away from home. You can step out the front door and walk to many restaurants, the shops on Main Street, the year round pool across the street at the Rec Center and also the free Splash pad right by it.
