Very spacious for our 9 family members. Two of the bedrooms do not have closets, which was somewhat inconvenient. Otherwise, we had a great stay

Dream Blue
This was a great house, quite and very accommodating! My only negative was the TV unit and how to operate the Roku. No instructions left with tv remotes! I’m an old guy not familiar with technology

Great Place, one small safety issue for kids
The only reason I am leaving 4 stars instead of 5 is because of a couple of storage areas that aren't secured well. We had 6 children there under 10, including 3 toddlers, and in both the kids room and in the common area upstairs there are small doors that lead to unfinished storage areas. Neither of these doors are secured and can be easily opened by toddlers. Our children did not do so, as we blocked the doors and told them not to, but it was very concerning especially since the unfinished areas dont have flooring everywhere so you could easily fall through the floor there if you're not aware, like any child would be. A simple bolt and lock on these doors would solve the problem. The only other thing I would add is that the upstairs TV did not have a remote nor did the Wii remote work. Otherwise we love the house and we would definitely stay again provided these issues are addressed. Thanks!

Mountain Fun
The location and view from the back porch was ideal! Our family of 11 people, three young ones and eight adults had plenty of room to play, talk around the huge table, watch Christmas movies, sit by the gas logs, and enjoy our time at Lake Junaluska and Waynesville! There were plenty of beds for all to sleep, bathrooms, and the little ones loved playing upstairs in the loft area and play room. It was a fun, family weekend!!!

Great gathering spot
We very much enjoyed this house and location. We brought 4 households together for a big thanksgiving gathering and the house was a great fit for everyone. Plenty of space to cook and eat, seat everyone around the fire/tv, and to spread out at bedtime. The location was great! We enjoyed walks around the lake, local restaurants, and made the journey to the polar express with ease.

Very nice, clean and spacious home!
Beautiful home with ample space. Kitchen and great room is perfect for a large group. Only a couple of suggestions….more TV’s and storage for clothes in the bedrooms….neither of which are a deal breaker.
