Thoughtfully designed, luxurious glamping experience with hotel amenities. ◆ New fully fence area for pets ◆ Spacious deck ◆ Barrel Sauna ◆ Outdoor fire pit under the trees and stars ◆ Cozy electric fireplace inside ◆ Kitchen equipped with a mini refrigerator, cooktop, and microwave for quick meals Nestled between the cute towns of Waynesville and Sylva and just minutes from many hikes and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Cherokee entrance to the Smoky Mountain National Park is also only 35 minutes away and Asheville is within 45. Furthermore, our road is called Quiet Forest Lane for a reason! It is so serene. ◆ Comfy King Bed (memory foam)! ◆ You will love soaking and unwinding in the bathtub (no shower) ◆ Wi-Fi (can be a little spotty for things like Zoom meetings) You will have full access to the entire tiny home during your stay. Please feel free to contact us at any time. We are here to assist you with anything you may need! Tucked off of a very quiet road with only a few houses, it’s the perfect setting to getaway to. However, plenty to do around in nature as well as great restaurants and breweries with Waynesville being under 20 mins away, Sylva ~10 mins, and Asheville is an easy highway drive ~40 mins. You can get to the beautiful Smokey Mountain National park entrance near Cherokee in ~35 mins as well. Steep gravel driveway but manageable for even 2WD cars as long as clearance isn’t too low This is a pet friendly property, we do charge a pet fee. You'll see this upon booking!

    Erik S. Summers · September 2026

    Very clean with modern amenities. It was a short weekend for us, and we were disappointed to not have time for the sauna... It looked amazing!The Wi-Fi struggled, but the host left HDMI cables in case you brought downloaded movies from your computer (they also have a DVD player and several DVD options). Regardless, my verizon hotspot allowed for seamless entertainment.We had a stormy weekend so considering the location is on a hill, 4x4 was not necessarily required, but it did come in very handy as we noticed some of our non-4x4 neighbors struggling.We did not bring a pet but did note the fantastic fenced in area along with a supplied water bowl, towel, and pet bed for a small to mid-sized companion.While feeling very remote, the location was only 15 minutes from downtown Sylva.To summarize, it was a beautiful stay!
