Second time we have stayed at this location. Love it. So nice just to walk downtown. House is clean, roomy and Jan is a great communicator. Grew up in Brevard and it's always fun to reconnect with old friends.

The house was clean and had the best-stocked kitchen I've seen at a VRBO! Jan was wonderful and made sure we had everything we needed. So close to town too. We will definitely book here again!

My family just had a wonderful stay in this house. The house had everything we needed and the location is excellent. We had some rainy days which made me really appreciate having a comfortable, cozy house that was close to everything when the rain stopped. I would definitely stay here again.

What a gem only a short walk to downtown and a short drive to great hiking. Communication was excellent throughout and if anything the pictures do not do the house justice. Only wish that we had been able to stay longer! Will definitely visit again.

Spacious living areas and an easy 2 block walk to downtown. Quiet neighborhood and the home is well equipped, including a large gas grill on the back porch / deck. The back also has a screened in porch that was great for morning coffee.

We really enjoyed our stay at Jan’s home in Brevard. The house was clean and offered a great living space for our family and friends. The location offers a 3 block walk into the charming town filled with cute shops, coffee and a fantastic toy store. Highly recommend!

Wonderful home and great location! Our toddler loved OP Taylor's toy store, Franklin Park play ground, Looking Glass Falls, Moore Cove Falls, gem mining and watching for the resident bunnies! Well appointed home with all the space and nice amenities needed.

We just stayed in Brevard for a long Father’s Day weekend. The house was exactly what we wanted. Everything was clean and well taken care of. The back yard was full of fireflies in the evening and they put on a show. Even saw a white squirrel. Very walkable to downtown with all the shops and restaurants. Jan was super with the ease of check in and out. Will definitely stay here again.

Super location for walking to town. The house was very functional and spotlessly clean. Jan reached out to make sure we got checked in okay and we had everything that we needed. I highly recommend this property!

This was my second stay at Jan Lees vrbo. This home is in an excellent location, and incredibly clean. The house is comfortable and has everything you need for a visit to Brevard. Jan is always quick to answer any questions, and on hand if there is an emergency (locked myself out :( ). Wonderful stay as usual.

I would like to keep this place a secret! My wife and I stayed here and its so close to downtown we could walk everywhere and its centrally located in some of the best hikes and waterfalls in the area. The owners were very attentive and responsive. It was immaculately clean. The only thing I could add is "shhhhhh - don't tell anyone, I want it to be my spot!"

We enjoyed this residence for ten days while we ventured into wilderness and on off days feasted on great music at the White Squirrel Festival. The location was perfect for visiting town and the Farmers Market. It was so easy to live in this comfortable house that we felt we were at home. An added bonus were the white squirrel on the deck one morning and synchronous fireflies in the evenings.

10/10

The house was exactly as advertised and was perfect for a 8 day stay in beautiful Brevard. The house was extremely clean and well stocked. We enjoyed the screened patio each morning and evening watching the squirrels, birds and rabbits. The location was ideal to walking to dinner (one block off Main). The neighborhood was clean and quiet. We have stayed in several VRBOs in Brevard over the years and this is our favorite. Jan was a wonderful host and very attentive. It was like talking with an old friend. We’re looking forward to coming back!

This is the second time we've stayed at the quaint home in Brevard. Our kids love the backyard and relative closeness to Franklin Park. We love the screened in porch and location near downtown. Everything in the downtown area is in a couple minutes walking distance. Or stay at the home, grill outside, and relax! Great communication by the owner. We look forward to staying here again!
