Studio Apartment atop Catamount Gap - 2 miles from WCU with Full Kitchen

The Studio Apartment on top of the Catamount Gap is a modern apartment in a very large top of the mountain top home just 2 miles from Western Carolina University on top of the Catamount Gap.

The apartment is absolutely full-featured and as nice as we can make it in every respect. There is a private deck, a fully outfitted modern kitchen, and totally private entrance. The apartment is a part of our home but there is no back and forth between the apartment and the area we live in. Each apartment has its own separate entrance on different sides of the home.
The apartment is ideal for visitors to Western Carolina University. You will be two short miles from the WCU entrance.
The Studio Apartment is at the absolute end of a state-maintained paved road at the pinnacle of our mountain. End of a state-maintained paved road at the pinnacle of our mountain and extremely motorcycle friendly. (We are avid bikers ourselves)
Amenities include:
A Large parking area and a huge private covered deck. Inside the apartment, there are 2 seating areas, a sleeping area, an upscale kitchen, tons of storage, Spa type bathroom, and a shower. A full-scale, totally furnished apartment! You will absolutely feel at home!
Sitting area number one is at the entrance from the deck and adjacent to the kitchen. Casual sitting area with a view of the deck and smoky mountains. Second seating area. This one is adjacent to the sleeping area and has dual leather couches. Adjacent to the computer workstation.

This is a full spectrum - top of the line kitchen with everything you need to prepare your own meals. Gas top stove, microwave, toaster oven, dishwasher, pots, pans, dishes, etc! Top-of-the-line appliances to absolutely make cooking and dining a pleasure! (That is if you wish to cook!) Simply bring your groceries or shop local. 2 miles to shopping. Otherwise tons of nice restaurants close by or bring it home and enjoy a meal here in the apartment

The bath is full-size and very upscale. Tons of full-size spa-type towels. Top-of-the-line fixtures and a basket of the things you might have forgotten. Previous visitors are especially fond of the shower! It’s a full 6’ x 6’ with two wall-mounted shower heads and an overhead rain shower fixture. On one side of the shower, there is a floor-to-ceiling glass window with a view of the smoky mountains. Additionally, there is a large stained glass window with a large stained glass hanging artwork to admire. Forget some bath essentials? We keep a pretty good stock for you. Just in case. Also in the bathroom area, there is a Full-size washer and dryer. Washer and dryer supplies furnished of course. Iron and ironing board as well.

Fully furnished apartment with an awesome coffee bar. Don and Renie provide everything you can imagine for your stay. There were even “extras” left for us to enjoy. Pizza, snacks, drinks, ice cream… best hosts I have ever experienced.

Don reached out to offer any help often, but never in the way. The property was well stocked and amenities complete and comfortable, and it's a wonderful location. I've already booked my next stay, and timed it for when one of their properties was available.

I have never felt more welcomed than I did when we arrived at this property. Don and Renie were the perfect hosts. You can tell they take pride in the guest experience and their properties. Everywhere you look, there are small details Don and Renie have added for the sole purpose of making you feel at home. The apartment feels much bigger than it is, but the extras added by Don and Renie make you feel like you're staying in a spa like resort. All the things you have to pay extra for in a hotel are included. There were pizzas and ice cream snacks in the freezer; the coffee bar was amazing; the fridge was stocked with water, drinks, and juice; chips, mints, and other candy were also available. The best feature of this property is the shower. It is something you have to experience for yourself. Overall, this was the best VRBO experience I've had. Don and Renie have been thoughtful and intentional to make their guests feel welcome and at home. I look forward to staying here many times in the future.

This was on of the best ever experiences we have had. The communication from Don and Renie was outstanding. We had a great weekend and felt at home the whole time. Don and Renie have made sure to cover every base when it comes to what you might need (even pizza for a late night snack ). The views are fantastic and it's very close to WCU if you are visiting a son/daughter like we were. We will be back again and would recommend this for a stay of any length.
