About this property
Awesome House in Downtown Sylva!
This hidden gem offers spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Just one block above Main Street, it's a short walk to breweries, bookstores, craft shops and restaurants. With a modern, open floor plan and a covered deck, there are trees and mountains everywhere you look. Two cozy bedrooms, new foam mattresses, fully stocked kitchen and a modern bathroom. Rafting, hiking and sightseeing nearby. Waterfalls, lakes and natural attractions in every direction. The pictures can't do it justice! The space This amazing house is in the heart of the Smokies. Twenty minutes from the Parkway, ten minutes from WCU. An hour from Pigeon Forge. Sylva has live music every Friday night and a farmer's market Saturday mornings. Two cozy bedrooms, a large open living room, full dining room-- this is the perfect getaway for couples and friends! Very quiet area. Vintage furnishings and the colorful style make it fresh and fun. You won't want to leave! Guest access You'll have the whole house to yourself on an acre of land. There is a covered deck outside, and the view is outstanding! We are on a cul-de-sac one block above Main street. Two bedrooms, large kitchen, spacious living room, dining room, and lots of windows. It's very private! There is plenty of parking right outside the front door under a two-car covered awning. A stone walkway leads to a covered patio with two steps up to the front door It's like being in a treehouse. Absolutely magical! Other things to note This house is right in town, but incredibly peaceful and woodsy! It's close to the Parkway, to the Great Smokies National Park and Joyce Kilmer Forest. Dollywood and Gatlinburg are about an hour one way. Asheville and the Biltmore House is an hour the other direction. This is a perfect location for getting to lots of local destinations. Bear Lake and Lake Santeetlah are both easily accessible and the town itself has lots of to do. The Dillsboro Craft shops are only minutes away.

Had a very comfortable and peaceful stay. Everything was straightforward and all we needed was already in place. There's a bit of hill, but you can easily walk to City Lights cafe for coffee in the morning, or a few steps more to Main St. Then head back to be peacefully in the trees, enjoying the view and listening to the birds. It's very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Now that I'm back at work and life I wish I was there again!
The host was very welcoming and provided alternate directions into the driveway which were very helpful. The house is very nice, well-decorated and appointed with all the necessities. The view from the deck was beautiful and the proximity to downtown Sylva was great! Would stay again!
This is a comfortable house two blocks from the heart of Sylva. There are spectacular views of the mountains; in the mornings we drank coffee and watched the clouds dissipate in the hills. The host was friendly and answered all our questions promptly. We plan to stay here again!
I stayed here while visiting my daughter who is attending WCU. It is a charming, eclectic home. Great location, close to cute shops and restaurants. I felt right at nome and would definitely stay here again!

Oh my gosh that's so nice to hear! Thank you so much, you were a wonderful guest!
This house and location are perfect!! The house is decorated with antiques which took us back in time. We all dialed our childhood numbers on the rotary phones which our teenage sons thought was hilarious. We had 4 adults staying there and our kids and girlfriends from WCU visited us and we had plenty of room! They parked at the house and we walked to downtown. This is an easy walk down, but the way back up was a little hard. It was good exercise. The beds are also great. They are so comfy! We are already planning our next trip. I have nothing but great things to say about this house and host! It was a GREAT weekend and we will be back!
The good: Great location. Clean and comfortable. Love the mid century modern accents! Nice layout. Nice view from the deck. Short walk downtown down the hill.
The bad: The walk back is up a hill. But wirth the view!
Nice old home. Very comfortable and modern. The room heaters work well. Nice bathroom and large living room. To watch TV, you need to mirror from your streaming mobile. It worked for me fine, but most people probably don’t need TV with the surroundings of the Smokey Mountains. The house was in close walking distance to town (although very steep). It was a unique place and worked for us. Some of the neighboring homes seemed abandoned and in bad shape, but didn’t bother us much as we were only at the property in the evening. Overall a nice place and as described.
