QUAINT MOUNTAIN COTTAGE-BREATH TAKING VIEWS-1.5 MILES TO DOWNTOWN WAYNESVILLE
An absolutely charming mountain cottage style home with one of the best views in Haywood County. A single level plan with an open living area highlighted by exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and skylights. A split floor plan with a large ensuite master suite on one side and 2 guests rooms and 2 bathrooms on the opposite side of the house gives everyone privacy.
You will have wonderful long-range views of the Balsams at an elevation of 3000’ yet you are only 1.5 miles from downtown Waynesville with all the shops, galleries and outstanding restaurants. Ingles & Walmart are less than 1.5 miles from the house.
All roads to the house are maintained by the city and the driveway and parking area at the house are paved as well. The Roost is the midpoint between Asheville and the Cherokee Indian Reservation and Harrah’s Casino - each about 30-45 minutes from THE ROOST so great for day trips with major highways easily accessible. Bryson City for white water rafting and tubing as well as riding the Great Smoky Mountain Railway are only 40 minutes from THE ROOST.
An incredibly well equipped kitchen including a gas stove, quartz counter tops and an abundance of dishes and cookware will make family mealtime easy. Games, cards, books, and DVDs are available to enjoy during your stay. There are flat screen HD TVs, Blue Ray players in the living room & master bedroom as well as an Apple TV box in the living room but we doubt you will need them with the covered porch and rockers at sunrise and sunset calling your name. The Wifi connection is strong and many have worked remotely from THE ROOST over our years of ownership.
Please note – pets and smoking are not permitted at The Roost. Thank you for honoring this request and our Grandchild with allergies especially thanks you!

Had a super fun time, and the cottage felt like home! Views are great and the house had all the things you would have at your own home. Great communication with the host and cleanliness was top notch. Would definitely go back with my family!
Property was in great condition and very clean. Beautiful mountain views, easy access to national park and other activities. Front porch was relaxing with many comfortable seating options.
We used the Roost as a central meeting spot for Thanksgiving. It was a wonderful and comfortable environment, with two fantastic and hospitable hosts! The entire family loved the ROOST.
The Roost was the perfect place for a weekend getaway!!! Everything was just perfect and the view from the front porch was breathtaking! Susan was always available for questions and the checkin process was super easy!
My family and I stayed at this property this month and it was wonderful! The house was exceptionally clean, great location and amazing views. The hosts are so helpful and friendly. My young children loved it as well. Highly recommend and we would love to stay again!
Thank you so much for letting us enjoy our first trip out of state in your home! The entire trip was amazing! We traveled all over and explored alot of new places!! Can't wait for our next trip!!

Perfect location, gorgeous view, wonderful house
For a small cottage this house seems much roomier with overall cathedral ceilings and lots of light. The house was clean as a whistle and the owners excellent to work with. Highly recommend this property.
The Roost is a well-appointed, very attractive, conveniently laid out home surrounded by beautiful flowers and offering a wonderful view of the mountains covered with autumn leaves while we were there. We enjoyed taking short drives to downtown Waynesville as well as to grocery stores and restaurants. We also enjoyed drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Overall a wonderful visit!
The location of this property is unbeatable; it’s close to everything. And the view! Beautiful. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to feel at home. We will definitely be back!
My family and I can’t rate enough great things about this VRBO. The communication was fantastic and the property was just amazing!! The home was immaculate and offered anything you would want to relax and unplug for the week. The best thing about The ROOST is the amazing view!
We had a great time in Waynesville and sitting on that porch at the Roost was the best! Susan’s recommendations for restaurants were spot on. The house had everything we wanted or needed.
This was our second visit to “The Roost”. Beautiful Mountain View’s and cozy comfort make our girls trip a special occasion every time! We enjoyed golfing in Maggie Vallley, shopping and dining in Waynesville and even a day trip to Asheville! We can’t wait for our next trip to “The Roost”!

Great view
I love that this house has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths-perfect for six people. Also, the view from the porch is beautiful! Who doesn't like being able to just go sit on your porch and see the mountains? It is close to shopping, restaurants and attractions. We had a great time!
My family from Florida and Washington finally got together after 8 years. We had a great time. On the go so much that I wish we had been able to kick back on the beautifully porch more!!!
It was love at first sight As we drove up to the cottage, the pink rhododendrons were in full bloom. They were gorgeous. Other plants and flowers all around. The porch has a swing and several comfy rockers and the most beautiful views of the Balsam mountains. The cottage was clean and well stocked. The split floor plan was an extra bonus as my husband and I brought along his 88yo father. He loved having his own bed and bath. Very happy place. Can’t wait to return.
Susan and Keith were wonderful attentive hosts. The view is gorgeous from the comfortable front covered porch. We loved being so close the town with delicious restaurants. Grocery store was very close and well stocked. The house was so clean and Was equipped with everything we needed. We will stay longer next time!
The house was clean the views were beautiful. Susan was very helpful. This property in the mountains actually had flat land. Best part of trip was SNOW!
A small group of us were looking for a weekend getaway where we could spend time outdoors and the roost was the perfect place for that. The owners were very communicative and the house was extremely clean/well-maintained. The front porch views are hard to beat and we had a great long weekend stay! We were able to get in a few hikes throughout the weekend as the house is in good proximity to portions of the Smoky Mountain National Park and the Cataloochee Valley.
