Magical in every way, this delightful 2 bedroom one bath cottage will have you Spellbound. The stone house has been lovingly restored and updated, surrounded by exceptional landscaping and towering trees. When it is pouring the rain, as we say here in the Appalachian mountains, you can stand under the amazing Hemlock in the front yard and not even get wet. Bring your camera phone with all of it's pixels because you will not be disappointed.

Forget about fighting for parking and walk to dinner or the breweries downtown and then come home to watch the fireflies from your own fairylit glass house in the back yard. You are right across the street from the Hart Theatre, the local performing arts venue for Waynesville as well as the Shelton House Museum which features North Carolina crafts and agricultural displays. The local Farmer's Market takes place on Saturday mornings Spring through Fall, and it is visible from the front yard. Again, no need to drive.

There is an updated kitchen and a double reclining sofa to remind you that you are not in a storybook cottage filled with beds that are just right, and there is a desk in a separate room for work if you must. The backyard has a wonderful glass house with a comfy red couch for reading or having a glass of wine.

Lake Junaluska and the trail that surrounds it are 10 minutes away, and when we are lucky enough to stay there we park at the Rose Walk and count the swans on the lake as the moon comes up over the mountain ridges.

Close enough to Asheville (less than 30 miles) and right next to Lake Junaluska... between Pisgah National Forest and at the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains....a short ride to rafting on the NOC or skiing at Cataloochee...there is gambling at the Cherokee casino.... a short and breathtaking drive to Brevard to look for white squirrels......but you will probably not get to much of that....because Spellbound will hold you captive with the company of each other.

Spellbound, in the shadow of Cold Mountain, is as magical as you make it.
