We love Lake Junaluska. We were very comfortable in the house. We used the porch a lot. Really didn’t like that glass door on the bathroom.

Lake fun!

Overall we had a very good time. Most of the house was very clean except for some of the windowsills and some grossness in the master shower. We did not like the glass door to the master bathroom. The house could use some updating especially the master shower. We all loved the laundry shoot. The views from the deck of the lake were very nice. The kitchen was very well stocked. I was not a fan of the nest ac system. I had no idea how to work it and when I called Vacasa about it they had no idea also. The woman claimed that the temp was preset and I had no ability to adjust it. I finally found a manual for it in one of the drawers. This should be put in the welcome binder. The 9 digit code to the front door was a pain to remember, it slams loudly and it locks behind you. There was a big storm and we lost power for 4-5 hours. Maybe have a couple more flashlights or candles in the house in case of emergencies. I found 2 and one didn't work. The ping pong table was great for the kids. The town was cute and the pool near the downtown was refreshing. We rented kayaks which was a blast! I was disappointed that there wasn't an easy way to get into the lake from the parking area in front of the house.

Great stay

We loved the house and the location right on the lake. There are a couple concerns - house needs to be sprayed for bugs. Also the outdoor light on the stairs going to carport needs to be looked at. It wasn’t working and made the stairs difficult to navigate at night. Besides these two easy to fix issues we had a great stay and appreciate everything. We would definitely rent it again.

Thanksmas

Our family from IN, VA and NC chose to use this home to celebrate Thanksmas (the combo of Thanksgiving and Christmas) and it couldn’t have been better.
