Junaluska Lodge

8/10 Good

"Older house with some updates. Had a problem with the keypad on the door, but the host had it fixed quickly. Great location with good parking. Quiet neighborhood."

Family getaway to Lake Junaluska

10/10 Excellent

"Couldn't have asked for better!The home was exceptionally clean, very roomy, and so well-stocked with everything we needed - kitchen essentials, towels, extra blankets, you name it. The location was super convenient to everything but still quiet and relaxing. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend!"

Spacious 2-bedroom home with amazing views, minutes to downtown Waynesville

10/10 Excellent

"The home was spotless. It was fully stocked with supplies. The view was beautiful.The downstairs bed was soft. Easy check in. Everything in the home worked. Good lighting. Fabulous stay. I would not hesitate to stay again. I do plan to return."

Balcony w/ Stunning View! Lake Junaluska Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"Our time at the Cherry House in Lake Junaluska was wonderful. The house was spotless when we arrived with new appliances, cooking pans, ect. The kitchen is small but well stocked. We hosted friends for dinner one night - 6 people is just the right size gathering for this cozy house. The beds were very comfortable! We enjoyed drinking our coffee on the balcony and watching the fog burn off over the lake. We walked our dog so much during our stay! 10 minutes, maybe, downhill to the lake and walking path. We also enjoyed just exploring the neighborhoods - always seeing other friendly people out walking too. This is definitely a place where people spend time outside! We look forward to coming back!"

Hood Upper

8/10 Good

"Loved the screened in porch and spent much time enjoying that part of the house. Everything was clean and great for our family of 6. There is no central A/C but window units kept it fairly cool. It’s a short walk, or even shorter drive, to all the amenities at Lake Junaluska, so the location was great too. There is no beach area to enjoy, but one was pictured in the rental pics, so that was a bit misleading."
