Lovely, picturesque property
Just as pictured in listing. This property was exceptionally clean, bed was comfortable, updated appliances and large corner window allowing for plenty of light and of course the view of the lake.

Magical Week on Lake Junaluska
We spent a magical week on Lake Junaluska in this apartment. Everything about it and the owners is top notch. The unit was immaculately clean and the owners have covered every detail, including thinking about our fur babies. We spent lovely evenings on the deck enjoying the fire pit and the spectacular views of the Lake. The photos on the listing don't even do it justice. It was our first trip to Lake Junaluska, and hopefully not our last. We would HIGHLY recommend this unit and these owners for your next vacation or getaway.

Great trip
My best friend and I wanted a vacation in Lake Junaluska so I found this apartment and we were so happy with it. Carolyn had made an amazing notebook of everything you would need on a trip, from restaurants (and menus), activities in the area, Wi-Fi password, instructions for everything! They also left a basket with snacks and a gift card to their favorite restaurant. We were so impressed! When we checked in we found the brand new refrigerator had quit working. Van was there in just a few minutes and brought us a mini fridge to use until a new one could be delivered. We were so happy with the service. All we needed was a small fridge anyway so it was no problem. The area is just beautiful. I loved sitting out on the deck in the mornings with my coffee. We feel like we found a jewel and we both highly recommend. I’m ready to go back.

Wonderful getaway
The Lone Star Retreat was a beautiful place. I enjoyed being able to sit on the porch and watch the lake and trees in cool weather (which, now that I’m back in Texas, I won’t see again until maybe February). I wish I could have given more than 5 stars. Carolyn was a gracious host, attentive but not intrusive. Wish I were back there…

Carolyn was very gracious~
It was difficult reviewing this property because, unfortunately, we had to cancel our plans. I understood that it was so late in the game that I couldn't be refunded. However, I did reach out to Carolyn and asked her, since there would be no need to clean the condo (since we won't be there) and my dog was not coming, would she reimburse the cleaning and dog fees. She QUICKLY replied and processed the refund. I am very grateful! If her place is anything like she is, I'm certain it is wonderful! Many thanks~
