Our stay was wonderful. We had 3 families at the house. This home is beautiful and very accommodating for 11 people. The property is absolutely beautiful and the lake access kept everyone entertained for the duration of our stay with the exception of some rainy periods which we improvised with trips to Black Mountain and Catawba falls only 30 min away. The host Jeff is very quick to respond and provided great recommendations for boat rentals and things to do in the area. Thank you for hosting us in your lovely home.

July Family Retreat

We had an awesome stay overall. The property and service were outstanding. As other reviews mention, the walk from the house to the dock and back is significant but manageable if everyone in the group can climb stairs and is in normal physical shape. Great place to swim. Our favorite part was the amazing decks and porches on every level. Awesome place to convene, read, nap etc. We would definitely recommend and stay again.

We enjoyed our stay. Well equipped house and clean house. Need to improve walk down to the lake, very difficult and hazardous for younger children. May want to have cleaner sweep porch area on lowest deck.

Awesome mountain lake house

We stayed here for a long weekend for New Years and absolutely loved it! The house is gorgeous, there are decks on all levels with lots of seating for the viewing areas, and the views of the lake and mountains are amazing. Located between 2 smaller towns and less than 45 minutes to Asheville made it easy to come and go as we pleased but honestly we stayed at home more than we thought we would. The bottom floor has a pool table, ping pong table, and darts board and we had many competitions! The grille is outside this level plus a second kitchen. The large tv on the main level was great for more family time as we watched bowl games.The beds were comfortable, plenty of nice towels, and the house is well stocked with pretty much everything we needed. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back!

Fabulous family lake house

This home is represented honestly with photos and descriptions. Large gathering rooms, comfortable beds, bathrooms, spectacular western view of Lake James, etc. Highlights for our family were the kitchen - great for the whole gang to gather for meals and games. The basement was fabulous with extra kitchen, card table, pinball, ping pong and the other room with pool table and dart board. Middle level was perfect for family and kids for sleeping. All levels had a balcony to relax on. The fire circle was perfect for s'mores and having access to the kayaks was terrific as four members enjoyed getting out in them. Friends came by with their boat and took us out for a ride so having the dock allowed that to happen. TRULY the BEST VRBO we have ever rented. Our host was always available and more than welcoming to have us use the place. They had games and even left the Christmas tree up for us even though it was New Year's Week. Twelve of our family members were here while the grandparents were in their small cabin they own nearby. Definitely a FIVE STAR rental!

A very wonderful house. Beautiful with great views, especially loved the many decks and the swinging beds. Great space overall, clean and extremely well-stocked with all our needs compared to other rentals we have stayed at. Loved spending time on the dock. The water was cleaning perfect temperature (in August) and surprisingly hardly any bugs. My kids loved jumping off the top platform of the dock and we were able to rent a boat and keep at the house, just rode it over from the marina. Basement level full of games (bbeautigul billiards room, ping pong, foosball, suffleboard, etc. Elevator was a huge help as our friends in the area have a son in a wheelchair and he was able to get around the house when they came over for dinner. Huge dining table too, BTW! Steep walking down to the water, would not recommend for wheelchair or stroller. Overall a great stay and would definitely return if I have the opportunity.

You won’t regret choosing this place! The house is beautiful and lies on such a peaceful, serene setting on the lake! We appreciated the home had a good stock of cooking, bathing, & laundry supplies. The owner is an excellent communicator and truly cares about guests enjoying their stay. Lakes James feels clean with clear water, we loved that it wasn’t heavily populated with boats. Our kids loved making s’mores in the fire pit and chasing fireflies at night.

Great getaway!

House is fantastic! Located on a great part of the lake, easy access to everything. We had 10 in our group and it was extremely roomy. Rented other homes on the lake over the years, and I must say this was one of the best!! Well equipped. Definitely would rent again!

A Gem on Lake James

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this spacious lakefront property! This log cabin is not only well built, but also well designed and tastefully decorated. It is conveniently well stocked, from the kitchen accessories down to the beach towels provided for the lake. This house is the perfect set- up for large groups, as there are many seating areas and places to gather. We especially enjoyed the daybed swings on the middle deck. Our family would highly recommend this property, and would love to return!
