The Terrace at Lake Junaluska

10/10 Excellent

Original log home in the Smokey Mountains

8/10 Good

Wildrest Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice quiet area. Could use more pillows for the bed. The neighborhood turkey with his pet ducks was a hoot!"

Love Lane Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Love Land B&B was wonderful. Debbie and John were exceptional hosts, so friendly and welcoming into their home. The house is lovely, beautifully decorated. Our room was comfortable and very private. Waynesville is a great location from which to explore the area. We look forward to a return visit."

Steps Away Cottage • Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect in every way! We will be coming back."

New Stylish House with Modern Amenities + Hot Tub

8/10 Good

"Property in excellent location for Waynesville. Appreciate the number of bedrooms & bathrooms which comfortably accommodated our group. Unfortunately the cleaning was lackluster &sporadic especially the kitchen and bed linens. The owner was responsive, but nothing done as the arrival time so late. Spouse and I cleaned and washed linens. Black sheets in primary bedrooms is off-putting. There is no can opener, serveware, fruit bowl or salad bowl. Previous guests must have served from the pots & pans as there is not 1 large bowl.Access information for property is only received a half hour prior to check in. The key pad lock is a bit wonky. I think if the owner communicated to cleaning service to do a better job and replaces bed linens & pillows, this could be a five star property."

Historic Carriage House - Downtown Waynesville, Walk to Main Street! Fast Wifi!

10/10 Excellent
