Recent Western North Carolina vacation rental reviews

The layout of the Carr Duet house was perfect for our family get away for Thanksgiving. We rented both the upper and lower house. Parking was ample and the access to the upper level was easy for my parents. The location of the house made it convenient to walk around Lake Junaluska as well as a short drive to shopping in Waynesville. The kitchen(s) could use a few more items. This was a perfect spot for our family to enjoy Thanksgiving together! Loved having the entire house and the use of two kitchens. Would stay here again!

We had an incredible time during our stay. The house was clean and had everything we needed to relax, cook meals, and enjoy the view from the porch!
