The house was lovely and very comfortable. The setting was quiet and serene, and the deck offered a gorgeous view of the sunset. There was ample parking. Bedrooms were roomy. The host was very responsive to our several small requests. His cleaner even met me to return a couple of items that were left behind.Overall an enjoyable stay.

This house was beautiful and centrally located to Sylva. We thoroughly enjoyed our time. Having a bedroom and bath on each floor provided privacy for each family. And there was plenty of parking for multiple vehicles. My only negative comment - the stairs between floors were steep and had narrow treads. This presented difficulty for elderly guests. I don’t think this was mentioned in the description or other reviews.

We had such a great and pleasant stay at this lovely home. We had so much fun here when we weren't on the go. Everything was great, and we had a blast. The home is kept up perfectly and is clean and spotless! I've never been in such a clean Vrbo or Airbnb ever!!! I'm very picky and notice detail and I couldn't see anything that hadn't been cleaned. Even the vents are dust free and I've never seen that. I usually enter a home and start to clean everything before we touch anything, but I didn't have to do that here. This is a special place and we really appreciated all the care, special touches, information, and love that is put into the home. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms large. We really appreciated that all of the three bedrooms had their own bathrooms and all on different floors(King on the third floor, queen on the main level, and King on the "basement " level). The sunsets were so pretty. We would definitely stay here again.

This home is GORGEOUS. So much space to spread out, but perfectly furnished for cozy gatherings. They thought of everything, with all kitchen needs, household needs (they even had scotch tape I forgot to bring to wrap a gift!!) - comfortable beds and pillows, soft towels with more than plenty for everyone. The bedrooms were spread throughout the house abd plenty of bathrooms for our family of 5. We will definitely stay here again.
