10% Dist for Summer! Lake Front Log Cabin with Double Decker Dock&Mtn. Views

"The Reel View"

A custom Montana Log Cabin, located in the beautiful NC Mountains right outside of the Pisgah National Forest and the Blue Ridge Parkway, on the majestic Lake James! This beautiful 2 story home with a walk out basement is exactly what you've been looking for! It's nestled on top of a quiet and peaceful qul-de-sac in the picturesque gated community know as The Arbor at Lake James. Believe us when we tell you, "The Reel View" has one of the most amazing views of Lake James with a Mountainous Backdrop you've ever seen to boot!

With 7 bedrooms (4 Bedrooms have Kings, 2 Bedrooms have Double Queens, and 1 Bedroom with Double Bunk Beds made up of 4 Queens) and 5 1/2 baths this home is ideal for groups of friends, large families, family reunions and multi family vacations alike. Once settled in you'll feel like your in a home away from home in true paradise! Plenty of areas to congregate both inside and out. Whether in the Kitchen, Dining Room, Great Room or Loft, it's all so welcoming and enjoyable! Every Bedroom has its own TV, as does the Loft, Great Room and Rec Room!

Also, we have a Air Hockey table and Foosball Table. Get the whole gang together for plenty of fun and laughter! Or jam out and sing along together with the acoustic guitar!

Enjoy all of the outdoor deck space both on the main level for outdoor dining and seating, as well as off of the basement with a soothing and relaxing Hot Tub while enjoying the gorgeous views and abundant wildlife!

Gas Grill and utensils will be provided! Grill must be cleaned after use and needs to look the same as when you got here ;-)

Large fire pit with seating under the stars, makes for the most memorable nights, roasting smores, telling stories, playing and singing music, living life!!!

We recommend you bring your own 4x4 UTV or rent one for your stay (ask us for recommendations) These are very helpful, on getting gear, coolers, people, etc... to and from the House and Dock. For our adventurous guest take a mountain hike down the cart path, which is about 600' long and traverses about a 100' of elevation, at one point you can cut through down the nature stairs and check out the artwork, birdhouses and wildlife along the way to the Double Decker dock and enjoy everything the inviting waters of Lake James have to offer!

Play in the water with the 2 kayaks and 1 paddle board (included), jump off the 2nd level of the dock (12') into the refreshing waters, go fishing (rods and reels included, but bring your own bait and tackle), sun tan, picnic, enjoy cocktails, etc... the possibilities and the memories are both endless and priceless! Bring your own boat and/or Jet Skis! Or feel free to rent our Pontoon.

Very private, older kids and young adults had a great time jumping off the 2 level dock and swimming. The pontoon boat was fun and easily towed 2 at a time. Love setting on the upper deck, the view is outstanding. Definitely get the recommended UTV, us old folks would never make it up the hill without one.

One of the best we've found!

This is by far one of the best properties we've found for a vacation spot. The house was absolutely gorgeous and everything was exactly as listed. There were plenty of bedrooms (and then some) and more than enough space for everyone to do their own thing. We rented a UTV to get to the lake (which you really need to do) and made the most of the two-story dock. The kids loved jumping in and using the kayaks. Everything within the house worked great and it was more than we could have asked for!

Amazing Views

The house is really well maintained and clean... However, you're in the woods so naturally there are bugs.Views are amazing. A UTV is a must - you won't utilize the lake as much of you don't have one.Lots of space for the family to gather - but also enough room to have "alone time".Would absolutely stay again!

The house was great for our big family. We enjoyed the boat with wake board and tube. Kayaks and paddle board were a lot of fun too (very spidery when we arrived) the dock gave us plenty of room for fiahing, sunning and playing in the water

Beautiful view

The Reel View home has an absolutely gorgeous view of Lake James from its elevated location. Our family had a much fun during our weekend stay. The pontoon boat rented with the home was terrific. We were able to explore Lake James and get a wonderful lunch from one of the lake's marinas. All in all, a very satisfying get away for all of us.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Breath taking spectacular views of the lake and the mountains!! The kitchen was well stocked with utensils for all our needs, the hot bathtub was perfect, the beds were very comfortable. The most important positive feature of the accommodation was the owner Ginny - so timely with responses. Thank you Ginny!! Hope to stay at this property again.

Best vacation home

Perfect stay in Nebo, NC that included 10 adults a 2 year old and newborn. Plenty of room for everyone. The view from the house was incredible. We rented the pontoon boat from the owner, and no regrets there. George was wonderful in coming to the house, and provide step by step instructions on docking and driving the pontoon. This was our best family vacation

Great week in Western NC

Amazing house with an amazing view An ATV or UTV are a must as the hike down to the lake is a challenge and the hike back up even more so. Still worth it when you get to the dock and the lake. Will probably look t o rent again next summer

Family vacation

We loved this beautiful log home and it’s spectacular views! The path to the lake is definitely a steep trek but we brought an atv as someone else recommended to help with that. The family enjoyed the lake activities a lot. Especially jumping from the upper deck and using the paddle board and kayaks provided by the host . We had an awesome week here and appreciated the hosts quick responses during the booking process too. A beautiful place to stay.

Wonderful place for a friend's weekend. The house is gorgeous and fully stocked for a large crowd. The views are great! The double-deck boathouse is great! You can float, swim or fish off the dock. Or just enjoy the sun! We rented the owner's boat and had a great time on the lake. The fire pit is fun for an evening gathering. The hot tub is nice for chilly evenings. The kitchen is new and fully stocked with pots, pans, silverware, etc. The linens are already on the bed. Check-in was very easy. And check-out was also easy. There is a lot of space, lots of bathrooms, great mattresses, great tvs to watch sports and a Blackstone to cook outside. I would definitely rent an Off-Road Vehicle to go up and down the mountain to the water. That is very steep and a long way down. But the house and property look just like the photos. The owners had great communication with us. And we cannot wait to go back!

Beautiful large home with amazing view! But

We had a wonderful family reunion here. It was perfect for our family of 3 generations. The younger ones had their own play area downstairs with foosball, games, tv…The view of the mountains is beautiful and the sunsets can be too! We would definitely return here. But things to note:If you plan on going to the lake a lot you need to rent the UTV from Cooke Rentals. If you are staying a week you will need extra towels and washcloths (only one per person per week are provided) or bring laundry detergent. No hand towels are provided. No hand soap, shower soap, dish soap are provided. You will need extra toilet paper. The store is not close so come prepared. Lake James is a beautiful, peaceful lake!The hosts are very responsive.

Beautiful home, so clean. Everything was wonderful. The walk to the water was difficult to say the least. So glad none of us were elderly or had health problems. We would consider renting again but would have to bring gas powered utility cart in order to reach water and dock.

Annual family gathering

The house is large with wonderful large and small gathering areas on multiple levels. The lower level gaming areas are fantastic and a draw for young and old. Rocking chairs on the back porch offer a beautiful view of Lake James and beyond. Seating for meals inside and out works for large groups. We used the adjacent counter to set out the food for “make your own” dinners. There is so much to do that the TV was never once turned on.

Heavenly view, super great double deck dock time, fire pit time with smores, fabulous pontoon boat to rent, fun paddleboard and kayaks, great family room for games for 16, eating arrangement was perfect for our family of 16 and all the conveniences of your own home were available.

The view of the lake and mountains is nothing short of magical. It was beautiful. We also renting the pontoon with the property. It was a wonderful experience. We had plenty of room for all of us. As others have stated, the path to the lake is steep. For those of us that had difficulty navigating the steep path, we met the boat at a nearby marina. It worked out well, and we had an amazing time.

Wonderful location, great place to rewind

Overall we had a very lovely stay. The location is magnificent and so is the house. It's absolutely beautiful, rustic and roomy. The large kitchen and dining table are amazing and perfect for group meals. Loved the 2 large outdoor decks which allows a lot of privacy if you travel in a group. The jacuzzi was a big hit - amazing to sit in there and enjoy the view :-). There were some minor shortcomings: We missed space to hang coats, no hanging space at the entrance or in most of the guest-rooms. The dock sitting area furniture (seat cushions) were moldy. The SUP is missing the keel. There was no wood inside the house for the fireplace nor a fire starter. But overall we enjoyed this lovely place on the lake and would recommed it highly!
