WHO MIGHT I SEE ON THIS PROPERTY DURING MY STAY?

Western North Carolina is home to black bears. They are beautiful to watch, but should never be intentionally fed, and trash should always be secured during your stay. Remember, garbage kills bears by attracting them to populated areas. So, for everyone’s safety, please don’t leave trash outside overnight. Keep in mind the bears were here first!
WHAT DO I DO WITH THE TRASH?
There is a trash can located under the steps that guests can leave bagged trash in.
Please place ONLY bagged trash in the box. Depending on the length of your stay, one of our property managers may come by to collect the trash. Leaving more than 8 bags or trash and recycling that is not properly bagged, may result in an additional cleaning fee.
CAN WE DRINK THE WATER?
Absolutely. The water is safe to drink!

Please use water to put them out and dispose of them properly; no evidence of smoking should be left behind. We appreciate you respecting this policy for the comfort and safety of all guests.

HIKING
Water Rock Knob:Just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, this is one of the “superstar trails.” Only about a 20 minute drive from Waynesville, the site features a parking area complete with Ranger Station. The summit is touted as the highest hikeable point on the Parkway and the trail is well-maintained and easily accessible. It is a moderately easy hike to the top with only about 1.3 mile round trip. The views along the way are excellent, with even spectacular views from the parking area. For those with limited experience hiking or with limited mobility, this is a worthwhile stop for anyone driving the Parkway.
