Wonderful house with absolutely beautiful view!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house had plenty of space for all of us, and everything we needed. The owners were also very helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a beautiful place to stay with peace and quiet all around.

Solid stay

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was great and the layout was perfect for our group. The kitchen had everything you could need. Lake Nantahala is an absolutely beautiful lake and a great place to enjoy the weekend. The dock was great and a nice amenity. I will say that the walk down the driveway (mountain) to get to the dock was not quick. We elected to drive to the dock which worked out well with our group. We would definitely consider staying here again.

Absolutely Gorgeous

It was a perfect Christmas getaway, Other than temporary blackouts, I would book this again! I do suggest if it is cold when you plan your drip bring a battery operated heater just in case. The house is amazing, the host communicates perfectly and the views are breathtaking.

Fun Family Getaway

We had a wonderful stay at the Lost Moose Lodge on Nantehela Lake this weekend!!! There were 9 of us in total (my husband and I along with our kids ages 16-23) and we really only wished that we had a couple of extra days! We had such a great time and would really love to come back again next year! The house was just beautiful, and extremely well stocked with everything that we needed! We cooked a lot, and there was nothing at all missing in the kitchen. There were lots of extras in the house that one might forget to bring. The house is so uniquely and beautifully designed and decorated and was more than enough room for our family to enjoy! We enjoyed the quick walk down the hill to the lake, our time spent swimming off the dock and relaxing in the sun and floating in our tubes, We brought a jet ski and some kayaks and then rented a speed boat from Lakes End Marina and had a great day spent on Lake Nantehela followed up by evenings grilling out and soaking in the hot tub on the upper deck overlooking the lake. We highly recommend visiting Lost Moose Lodge for your next vacation in the mountains!!

Excellent fall time VBRO

Beautiful cabin style home with amazing views of fall setting in. Property had everything you could ask for, multiple decks with seating, hot tub with a view, play room for kids, fire pit and more. Bring yourselves, fire wood, fishing pole, and food and you are set! Cabin is very private and away from main roads (would recommend AWD or 4WD vehicle as owners suggest). Overall great place, would visit again!

Our family had a wonderful vacation in this gorgeous log cabin. We went swimming and boating on the lake, hiking in the mountains, and spent time relaxing in the hot tub, taking in the most amazing views.

Exceeded expectations

This was our first time down to The Smokey Mountains and we did not know what to expect. The drive down became a little worrisome as we got closer too the destination, but as soon as you get to the end of the road the lake opens up with beautiful cabins all along in a very private, secluded, and safe nook on Lake Nantahala. The cabin was beyond amazing. If you like very Nancy Meyers types of movies because of the decor, location, and overall vibe of the house, then Lost Moose Lodge is THE place to stay if you come to NC! Every detail was perfect, very clean, lots of activities, and even a scavenger hunt in the house was provided. Stock up on groceries and bring firewood and starter with you to enjoy this place uninterrupted for your getaway. We did a few local attractions, however we would have been happy to just stay all weekend at the cabin as it was exactly the place for a relaxing and family oriented type of trip. We will definitely be coming back.

Lovely Christmas Stay

We rented this place for a family getaway over Christmas. We absolutely loved our stay! The house exceeded our expectations (and the listed pictures). Hidden gem with a fabulous view. The hot tub was a hit. The owners were responsive to messages if needed (but everything is spelled out in the pdf they send you). The owners went above and beyond in decorating for Christmas and setting the table with festive ware--and even left out cute slippers for the kids (big hit)! Thanks so much! A couple things to be aware of-- there is a small stream you have to cross. My MIL made it ok in her Honda civic. They mention this in the description but somehow we all missed it. Our bad! Also the wireless is on the slow side. No big deal for us as we were vacationing but if you're needing a reliable connection for work from home situation, you may need to rethink. Otherwise, fantastic!!

Cabin Trip

We Travel to the Smokies every summer and this was our favorite cabin yet. Great secluded location on the lake with fabulous REAL cabin outdoor décor including a moose head and gorgeous Antler chandelier. Our kids loved the loft with tons of stuffed animals, etc. The view is incredible and can be enjoyed from the hot tub as well. The only downside is the slow wifi and cell service but that didn't bother us!

Beautiful

The house and views were gorgeous. We had a great time white water rafting, exploring old river road, gem mining, boating on the lake and swimming off of the dock. We are exhausted but couldn’t be happier with the house and great family experience had by all.

Dreamy

What an amazing cabin and view. When you need to “take a break and get away”, this place is exactly what you daydream about. Our girls (ages 9 & 10) thought the loft bedroom was “the best EVER”! We all loved the home decor and the stuffed animals on the loft; made it very warm and inviting. Driveway was a bit nerve-wracking like everyone else said but you get used to it. Internet was “mountain slow”, which was fine except when both my husband and I needed to work at the same time. I would absolutely recommend this home for anyone who wants a true cozy cabin in the mountains. Thank you for providing your beautiful home!

The cabin was absolutely beautiful and well stocked with everything. The view was amazing. The drive up to the cabin was a bit nerve racking for a 12 passenger van we had, but doable. A regular car would have no problem though. Great place overall.

Three Weeks Later Still Missing It

Chris was great to deal with! Place is stunning, clean, and memorable. The view is amazing day or night! We had such a great time. Keep in mind you are remote and launch your boats prior to going to the house. Don't be like the idiots from Illinois who tried to bring them down Little Choga to the house (bad idea). You will not have cell reception and minimal texting options from the house. We absolutely loved this vacation and after this stay are seriously considering moving to NC. Time to get away from the craziness in Illinois. You will not go wrong booking Chris and Nicole's place. We all look forward to coming back for another stay!

About the host

Hosted by Chris

Host profile image
We live in Atlanta and found this property, I designed the house with our builder and it was ready to move in 2005. We are a busy family of four and love going up to our house to get away from the 4MM people in Atlanta.

Why they chose this property

I designed the house for rental and vacation, my wife decorated for our 2nd house and retirement location. You will see that she never really wanted to rent it, and put a lot of time in the decor in the house. The view is AMAZING and I can promise you that it will be 'even better than the pictures' We love the pace and the rustic feel of the area. The walk to the the boat area is close given the steep mountain lake terrain, but you are truly in the woods when you are at our house.
