Definition of peaceful!
Gorgeous views, quiet setting, beautifully decorated and designed home! The house has everything you need and more. Kitchen was so well stocked, and the games and ping pong table downstairs were a bonus!

Awesome weekend in Western NC!
My family and I loved our stay at "Second Wind" and we were blown away by the views! The house was spacious and easily accommodated my family of four and another family of three. The hot tub was clean and easy to use. Our highlights were watching the sunset, cooking, hiking up to the top of mountain (easy, short hike with unbelievable views), driving into Waynesville (cute town!) for day trips, and a morning hike to Midnight Hole just up the road in Great Smokey Mountain National Park. Would definitely come back to place. What a hidden gem!
