Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Waynesville

Good communication and awesome view

Jennica is a wonderful host and this property was amazing and convenient to everything. Most importantly, I felt comfortable there!

I came for an herbal conference at Lake Junaluska and my stay was perfect! It is about a 10 minute drive to downtown Waynesville which has the cutest shops and eateries. All of her recommendations were spot on! The room was super clean, well stocked, and very comfortable. I appreciated the toiletries because I forgot mine🤦🏻‍♀️ I would highly recommend staying here for its location and safety. As a woman traveling solo, I felt very safe and extremely at peace.

This is our second stay here. The space is clean and simple, with plenty of room in the kitchen to cook. The view and peaceful surroundings are more than worth the drive up the mountain.

This was a lovely place and exactly what I wanted!! The dog door and fenced in area was enough to convince my boyfriend that he needs to install one at his place. The view on the deck was incredibly peaceful! John was super friendly and helped with anything we needed. I worked “remotely” while I was there and no issues with the Wi-Fi! There were lots of nice little touches in the house and the bed was comfortable. Thank you!

We had a fantastic stay at the Eagles Nest. It’s in a lovely, quiet neighborhood next to a peaceful creek, but still close to grocery stores and a quick 30-minute run to the AVL airport. We enjoyed seeing a mama turkey with her four babies in the yard. The home was perfect for our group of seven adults, and four separate floors provides privacy but still a large common kitchen/living room where we played games and ate meals together. The kitchen is well-stocked with the best coffee (Keurig and Nespresso) bar I’ve seen! We really appreciated the to-go cups as well. Towels were plush and plentiful, and all of the beds were comfortable. Matthew was a great host — exceptionally responsive and provided clear instructions. We would definitely return for another stay to this beautiful home!

We just returned from our second stay at the Farmhouse. Based upon our first stay we had a high expectation for a second visit. Our expectations were exceeded in almost every area. Watching the animals does have a very therapeutic effect. The view of the sunset over the mountains can be breath taking. In physical terms, my wife has back problems and traveling can pose a real challenge. The bed and recliner at the Farmhouse fit her perfectly. She was able to sit in the recliner for hours and take in the view through a large picture window. The décor and cleanliness of the farmhouse are exceptional. Waynesville and Maggie Valley have proven to have excellent restaurants and shopping. It is often said that return customers are the sign of a successful business. We already have our dates reserved for an October trip.

Stayed here for a night as a quick girls weekend and it was PERFECT! We felt safe and right at home. David was very proactive with plenty of instructions and pictures which helped with the use of the hot tub! We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub and enjoyed movies in bed! The kitchen was beautiful and well stocked with appliances and kitchen wares if needed. It was SPOTLESS and the whole place was just beautiful! Showers and bathrooms were very nice and squeaky clean. We had plenty of towels, extra linens, and pillows. We loved the bee theme of the house and felt so safe having the fenced in backyard. Thank you, David, for sharing such a beautiful place and the honey was delicious, too! If you are considering staying here- BOOK IT! We will def be staying here again!

This was such a lovely Airbnb! Squeaky clean, walkable to beautiful Lake Junaluska and just a few minutes to hiking and downtown Waynesville. You can really tell Steve and Susie want their guests to have a five star stay with so many thoughtful touches such as bottled water, coffee, tea, half and half, biscotti’s card games and an abundance of books and guides about the area. There was a private table and chairs outside for a glass of wine or a meal which we loved and the bed was so comfortable. We visit this area often and we are so glad we have found our home away from home in Waynesville. Thank you Steve and Susie for hosting us! Blessings, Steve and Amy

Don and the rental were fantastic. I can only wish that every Air BnB was done this well. Water on every table. The bathroom had everything you might have forgotten. The fridge had soda and water in it. Even had a Smores setup for the firepit outside. I will be back here regularly and Don's place will always be my first choice. Dons hospitality was world class. It is very hard to find genuine hospitality and Don hit it off the mountain.

We were in town for a wedding and traveling 7.5 hours to get there the stay was absolutely amazing! It rained while we were there on Friday but we enjoined sitting on the porch with blankets listening to the rain fall on the tin roof! We enjoyed watching the neighbors horses that would come to the fence to visit and we enjoyed watching the chickens beside the house ( don’t worry they are all quiet as well). We ended up being a party of three traveling with a 14 year old boy who never once said he was bored he spent his time on the swings outside and petting the horses! I highly recommend this place it is close to town, nice quiet location, easy driveway, no steps to climb and peaceful! The House is very clean, beds are comfy even the couch bed sleeps well per the 14 year old. The Host is very friendly and made sure we had absolutely everything that we needed! The home is stocked with all the things we needed and was the perfect size! Thank you for having us! Martha, Natalie, Nathan

Rebecca’s basement apartment was great. The space was well cleaned, spacious for my wife and I and as described in the description. There were nice little touches with s’more sticks for the outside fire pit, snacks on the counter, and water in the fridge. My wife particularly liked having the makeup removal wash cloth. The rental is in a great location. Just 2 blocks from Main Street and a short distance from Frog Level. I highly recommend staying in Rebecca’s rental.

I have lived in a lot of places over the past year while traveling for school, and this was the best of the bunch. Everything was great, including a clean comfortable space, available toiletries, efficient appliances, simple check in and out, amazing 10/10 mountain view.

This place was a quaint, beautiful space that was extremely convenient and walkable to all the great spots on Main St. It was just as described and Marita was extremely flexible and responsive with me. When I am back in the area I will definitely stay here again.

Maggie and Mike are wonderful, responsive, and attentive hosts! They made us feel so welcomed and were very helpful with recommendations for hiking and sightseeing in the area. Meeting them was such an added bonus to a great stay. The apartment was just as described and met all of our expectations. The property is gorgeous and so very peaceful and the view is stunning. We are very glad we stayed here and would like to come again.

We loved staying at Lara’s. Because of rainy weekend, the mountains were especially lush and foggy creating almost magical misty atmosphere. We were able to build a fire every night. Kitchen was perfectly stocked with nice scratch free pots/pans. Lots of nature and little towns to explore nearby. Thank you Lara - we would love to come back!

The condo was well appointed and had everything we needed for a short two night stay. It’s located in a beautiful area.

a very nice and comfortable property, located in a precious and very quiet place, definitely return

In love with this Airbnb! It was our little quiet space outside of the Gatlinburg chaos. We were so comfortable and relaxed and loved seeing the wildlife in the property (we saw four bears!!). Can’t recommend this enough.

first time traveling with my mother and my two kids. we were all in awe of the scenery from our patio here. it was peaceful, clean, the larger bed was SO comfortable. the kids made themselves right at home with their nightstands and bathroom. it was a great stay. Gatlinburg is a beautiful place to stay in. I will be returning to this location specifically with friends!

Definitely worth the views of the mountains! A quick drive into town or the trolley stop!

The space was clean and the hosts had clear instructions. The bed was very comfortable. Nice location as well; you can walk to restaurants in Gatlinburg.

My family had a wonderful time at Bearily Beckers! The perfect condo with the most gorgeous view of the smoky mountains! Bearily Beckers was about a 20 minute drive from downtown Gatlinburg and 40 minutes from Pigeon Forge. It was exciting driving up the mountain every day to get to the condo :) Everything was exactly as shown in the photos: clean and homey. Sue was a wonderful host, great communication and a detailed house manual which we appreciated! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Chad and Allison were fantastic hosts. The place is absolutely beautiful and lots of things for kids to do. If you are looking for a peaceful getaway with lots of things to do, this is your spot. Will definitely book again.
