Nice private house right off downtown Hayesville. You can walk or drive to all the shops and restaurants that the area in town has to offer. Lake Chatuge is a short drive, as well as Murphy. The house was clean, wifi worked with no issues. Host was quick to respond on any questions, and made sure instructions on checking in or out were sent and acknowledged. We’d definitely stay here again.

We have stayed at Lazy hiker three times now and enjoy it every time. Priscilla was communicative, friendly, and helpful (as well as patient) when issues arose with payment approval. My dog, Maizy, was very comfortable and loves the property. (We do miss the extra ease a fenced in yard would provide.) Check-in and check-out were both easy-peasy. Thank you, Priscilla!
