There is a large open concept kitchen, living room, dining room and sunroom with 30 foot ceiling windows featuring the county's best views of Mountains. The home was completed in 2016 just for people to enjoy their vacation .....it is the perfect combination of a mountain European style home with a contempo-rary feel and all the modern amenities. Don't worry we preserved some of mountain history and charm throughout to make your experience complete. At the home you will find all kinds of special places from the see through outdoor fireplace and patio to the inside lower sitting room on up to the sunroom with windows revealing the multi layer mountain views. You can rise to the morning mist and fall asleep to the dancing fireflies. This is a place to relax, unwind and spend time in the shadows of the Blue Ridge mountains. The master bedroom and bathroom are full of Luxuries. This untouched natural beauty presents you with an opportunity to experience wildlife as you’ve seldom seen it.

Perched on a hillside with breathtaking views

What a great jeep ride up to this beautiful property and cabin with peaceful breathtaking views. The cabin was immaculate and had everything we needed during our 5 night stay during 4th of July week. Enjoyed the surrounding areas with time spent at Lake Junaluska and driving some of the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Peaceful getaway with a beautiful view!

The views from this home are absolutely stunning. We loved relaxing on the porch and taking in the peaceful natural surroundings all weekend. The house was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped—and the host was communicative and helpful throughout our stay. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

Great Getaway

Accommodations were great. Great views with plenty to explore from the patios. Close enough to Waynesville, Asheville, and even Brevard for day trips but far enough away from any sort of bustle.

Perfect setting

We were very impressed as this is a couples themed location. Although it sits high on a hillside, and a single lane road to the house, once you arrive you dont want to leave. The view is amazing looking down thru a valley and its pretty secluded. We were there for vacation as well as looking for future residence so every time we came back, it was such a stress reliever. Definitely a place you can bring supplies and simply stay. Its off the beaten path a bit but only 15 minutes from Waynesville. We will definitely stay here again!

A wonderful spot

We spent 10 days in the cabin touring around this beautiful area. The cabin was perfect for 2 people and our pet. The listing was spot on. It’s location is just remote enough to be perfect- accessible to hiking, shopping, dining, etc without being in the middle of a town. The cabin was beautifully appointed and has everything we needed. The porch in the morning with coffee and the evening by the fireplace were special times for us to plan the day and relax after a day of outings. You will fall in love with the baby goats down the road!

Beautiful, remote spot!

The owner was prompt and was very helpful when I had some email issues with the check-in info. She was very nice to talk to! Place has amazing scenery, great amenities, and relaxing place to stay! Just beautiful! A lot of trail, food, itinerary ideas provided! Plenty of thoughtful, personal touches! Great smells, soaps, dog treats, espresso machine, nice kitchen items, etc. My family could only stay one night, instead of two, because of my toddler getting sick. But, even with one night, it was a great stay! We would come again for sure! Thank you!

Truly a jewel!

My husband and I celebrated our 40th anniversary at this beautiful place. The location and elevation are the perfect combination to offer a peaceful sanctuary to relax, reflect, and find peace in this too-busy world. There isn't much more I can say about the Jewel that others have not already said. It's just as described, the photos only offer a glimpse of the beautiful views as nothing can capture what the eyes see, and the serenity of it all is more than words can describe. Hearing nothing but the birds and a gentle breeze through the trees in the morning and just the crickets at night is all it takes to bring peace to our busy lives. Julie is a lovely host and very accommodating. Thank you for all your help during our stay! We would love to come back to enjoy this sanctuary high above the clouds. Just a note to future visitors...treat the Jewel kindly and with respect so that others can enjoy this beautiful place.

Almost Perfect

There were MANY pros to this property. We have stayed a few different places in the area. It is gorgeous and felt mostly luxurious to be in. We enjoyed our time very much and it was almost perfect! Cons: - The neighbor, Karen, will be monitoring your stay and reporting to the owner. If you want privacy and seclusion, this is not for you. My sister (and her partner) came for a visit from Asheville and her car was snowed in. Her car doors were frozen shut. It was unsafe and impossible for her to leave. We lost part of our deposit because she stayed the night, oh and important to mention, this happened on Christmas Day! Not upset about the money so much as it seemed distasteful on Christmas Day and was quite a damper. -We killed about 35 wasps (aka mud-dobbers, the owner calls them) in our 6 night stay. Harmless, we were told, but gross, nonetheless.

Perfection at it's finest!

Our experience with this property hands down, bar none is 5 stars! The property owner, Julie, has thought of everything. The home is impeccably clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated with nostalgia all around. The architectural beams, wood trim and accents are beautiful. The kitchen is equipped with everything that you would typically need to make a hefty meal. The king bed is superior and has the best pillows! Plenty of towels, blankets, storage, guest touches, etc. Our pups loved the pet area and we felt assured when we had to leave without them! The sunroom has great views, but we barely sat in it because the weather was perfect for us to enjoy being outside. Speaking of the views - It's absolutely stunningly beautiful - with the rolling hills, dotted with pastures and livestock, and the backdrop of the mountains - it has it ALL!! The yard is large with a slight slope and jetted with boulders which was just as beautiful and added to the incredible views. There is a smaller flat yard just behind the house and was good for the pups. We used every sitting space outside and never got sick of the views. The cows next door would make their rounds in the evening and graze. We almost never heard a man made sound, so if quiet is what you seek, it's here. The driveway was an adventure too - we loved the goats near the bottom. I can't speak any more highly of this property. It's truly perfection at it's finest!! Thank you Julie for hosting an amazing experience for us in your home. We cannot wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Julie Lapkoff

Host profile image
Being in the area is a big part of me. I would choose no other place to live, work and play. Thus stands the reason why I am a realtor and vacation rental owner. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have: (828) 273-6607

Why they chose this property

I chose to build this property from ground up with the vacationer in mind. Having owned rentals for several years and gone through remodeling and redesigning vacation rentals, I thought it was time for vacation renters to a luxury cabin built just for them.
