Absolutely Serene Location

Spent nine days here and wish it could have been longer. We felt like we were in the wilderness yet we were walking distance to town. This cabin was absolutely immaculate.......it has been well taken care of. Many things to do in this area and some great BBQ. The property manager greeted us upon our arrival and was available afterwards to answer questions. Am looking forward to returning here sometime.

Awesome stay!

We had an excellent time staying at this property. We had originally booked for just 4 nights but the remainder of the week was open so we stayed 2 more. It’s only about a 5 minute drive to Ingles grocery store/gas. The home is huge, so we decided to invite family over a couple of days to hang out on the water and friends stayed with us one night also. The size of the home was super convenient as we had 9 of us there at one point. Buck was super nice and very helpful, there at check in to help to make sure we knew how to work the TV’s and such. He was just a phone call away and lives near to help if you need anything. We were able to dock our pontoon at the boat dock at the property which is a huge plus. The yard is massive, the grandkids loved running around. The little neighbor it’s in is nice, the kids enjoyed riding their bikes in the evening. We definitely recommend staying here!

Spacious and comfortable

We stayed for 3 nights. Too short. Met my sister and her family up in Hiawassee, Ga for Thanksgiving. Had Thanksgiving at my sister's rental. A 3 story job made to look like a log cabin but not really. Hers was small. The main living area was on the middle floor. We were cramped and hot. The next day was at our cabin. Nice and relaxing. Everyone seemed so relaxed. So much room and plenty of bathrooms. And a beautiful lake to look at while enjoying the outdoors in the large screened porch with plenty of seating area. 2 bathrooms had walk in showers with doors and the 3rd had a tub/shower combo. Can't speak enough about the spacious rooms and just wonderful homy feel. Jack was the manager of the home and great. We didn't need to call him and only met him the 1st night when we got their to get the tour and instructions. He was very thorough and enthusiastic. Really appreciated the extra touch. This is a must stay at cabin. You'll really enjoy it.

2nd annual tribe ride

Our group rents a place every year for our motorcycle ride. This place by far was the best we have ever stayed at. The view of the lake and screened in porch was our favorite. We loved how close we were to everything we needed. Buck was the best at making sure we got checked in and had everything ready. We will definitely be booking this place again real soon.

Very nice place to stay. Had everything we could possibly need.

Throughly enjoyed our stay. Loved the screened porch but was a tad too chilly to enjoy it. (Maybe consider adding a small heater out there for colder weather.). Even without that, the stay was very very good. The property is convenient to most everything, but still in a quiet and peaceful area.

Peaceful and Quiet

This house was the perfect place for us to have a quiet getaway. The location is very private and has a great view of the lake. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets and spent many hours on the screened-in porch watching the birds and the boats. The kitchen has everything you might need to prepare meals, the beds are comfortable and there are multiple bathrooms. It is a great place for a family get together.
