Waters Fall is a wonderful house for a small group. My family and I had a blast enjoying the fresh mountain air and taking in the beautiful stream. The location is convenient also. We would love to stay again in the future.

If you're looking for a relaxing and peaceful place to stay, look no further. The host was great and always responded to messages in a timely manner. We loved the firepit and the waterfall. Add the lights at night and it was the perfect setting to curl up with a book and a glass of wine. We enjoyed it so much we stayed an extra two nights.

The owners of this property have considered most every need a traveler might have. We typically hike for miles to reach the view and setting that you have directly from the porches on this property, truly magical. We live in the city where’s it noisy and to be constantly inundated by the sound of the waterfalls was something special. We hope to return to this very comfortable mountain property.

This was one of the most relaxing and amazing places we've stayed at on our travels. It was so very needed after a stressful work year, and we absolutely hated to have to leave. We will be staying here again, and hopefully again, and hopefully again lol.
