Central location
Central location to event we were vendors with. GPS took me to the backside of house so it took me an extra trip around to find the driveway. Comfortable home. Unfortunately we didn't get to enjoy the lovely deck, it looked very inviting. I did use the grill it was perfect for what I needed. We will consider staying for future events.

Very nice place!
Great place to stay. The house was clean. It was nice! 2 things that need attention in my opinion... 1. The door was not shut all the way when we arrived so the house wasnt secure. 2. The coffee maker ruined one of our mornings! I dunno whats wrong with that thing but it brewed a pot of coffee all over the countertop. We were finally able to get it to work but i had stand next to it and make sure it was going into the pot. Then the pot was full of grounds so we had to filtet it again. Im sure this is not a big deal to most people but as addicted coffee drinkers every morning it was a pain. Replace the coffee maker! Lol. All in all it was a really great stay in an awesome location with scenic mountain views all around. Thanks for the stay!

Peaceful Retreat
This home was perfect for our family to relax, play number pool, and cook for everyone. The kitchen was equipped with plenty of dishes and utensils. I had never stayed in a pet friendly home before, and was a little worried. Twyla’s place had no evidence of pets ever being there! It was super clean! We also had access to the pool and putt putt course at the lake! What a fun trip!

Perfect House and Location with couple of caveat
The house is in a great location for activities around Lake Junaluska and Asheville area. Only two complaints though. First is that the trash can was full when we got there and so had to keep the full trash bags in the laundry room until the trash pickup on Wednesday. The fill valve in the master bathroom kept getting stuck. Had to keep opening the tank lid and pushing down on the fill valve float.

Had a great stay
Property was a close drive to walking path near Lake Junaluska. Was also close to several grocery stores. House was clean and well stocked. There is a gas grill that was ready to use. They had Corelle dishes, great because we have kids. Bed was comfortable. There was a guide book nearby with great info about the surrounding area. Will try to stay here again in the future.

Don't go before memorial day as this place is closed down. Don't go to fish - boat ramp horrible.
House was nice but the rest of the property amenities were abysmal. False marketing on fishing (don't take your own boat as you only have access to maybe a quarter of the lake (walk bridge blokes' access to main part of lake and boat ramp is terrible. Only caught one 5 inch bass. The amenities were closed down until after Memorial Day so forget taking the kids to the pool before then.

Twyla's Mountain Retreat
Property was clean and well stocked. Had 3 adults, a teen and a 10 year old and there was plenty of room. The area has nice restaurants along with skiing which 3 family members had fun doing. Owner recently renovated the property and did a nice job. Only issue was the Nest thermostat keeper dropping the temperature when you weren't expecting it. Understand why it is set but it is not effective for the guest.
