Nice Getaway

Really enjoyed our stay for a couple of days. I do want to reiterate that the walk to the dock is very steep with lots of stairs but beautiful once you get down there. We tried to minimize our trips down there to once down and once back up. Host very responsive and very nice house.

Wonderful new house on a quite cove

Very well appointed house that was very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped and had new appliances. Host was very easy to work with and accommodating. Great neighborhood a lots of privacy. We loved it! The path to the lake is steep in places but is easier after you've done it once or twice. Very quiet cove with deep water. Beautiful! and a double decker dock!

Lovely new lake house with Great Lake toys

This was a beautiful new property with all the amenities. The dock is a steep walk down from the house, but well worth it once you get there. Having the paddle boards and canoe for the full stay made for nice lazy days in the sunshine. One of the kids rooms is more of a closet than a room, so we made the lower family room into a teen bedroom. Jennifer was super helpful and accomodating!

Incredible Lake Home

This was our first visit to Lake James, and it was absolutely wonderful. The home is beautiful, everything you could need or want for the perfect lake stay. The highlight for us was the dock/boat house that all of us enjoyed (ages 9 to 45!). We rented a boat and were able to dock it right at the house all week long (highly recommended Lake James Boat Rentals/Marina). We spent all day every day on the water doing water sports, and enjoyed sunsets and cookouts out back every evening. The kids all loved jumping off the dock, paddle boarding, and kayaking around the cove. The location of the home is perfect with the cove it’s on. The owners clearly take very good care of this home, and they were very kind and easy to communicate with. Best VRBO experience in a decade! We could not have asked for a more perfect place to spend a week with family and friends. We cannot wait to come back!

The beautiful lake house on the hill

This was a beautiful house on and even more beautiful lake! The house was well appointed with plenty of chairs, towels, beds, tv’s and everything else you’ll need. Jennifer, the host was very easy to communicate with and provided us with everything that we needed. The water area is lovely, the dock was a blast! This house comes with a very high end aluminum dock with two gates that open from the top for jumping, and the depth is plenty to handle it. Just as a few others have stated, the hill to get down to the lake is real beast! Be sure to pack everything that you’ll need for the whole day. Not sure I’d recommend this house for anyone who’s not in pretty good shape seeing how steep the hill was! The nearest grocery store is a solid 20 min away so keep that in mind, make a list and make that trek. We enjoyed the brewery that was 10 min down the road and they had a food truck there that made some great pizzas! Even with the hill I think it’s worth it! We will be looking to come back if we ever make it back out that way!

Family Vacation

The lake house was amazing!! We celebrated our 40th anniversary with our family. Our grandkids had such a fun time down on the dock, swimming & kayaking. The house was prefect too!! We all enjoyed relaxing in the comfort of the beautiful home! The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need. We are a family of 10 & there were plenty of beds & rooms for everyone with one to spare. The kids enjoyed the game room when they weren’t at the dock! Fair to say, we all got our work out on the way down & back up the trail! But the fun at the lake was worth it!!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was very clean, and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well-stocked, and we really enjoyed using the Blackstone grill. One of our favorite features was the screened porch. It was the perfect place to relax, especially during the storms we had each day.The walk to the dock is quite steep, which could be challenging for some guests. We appreciated having access to the kayaks, though we do wish there had been some pool noodles or floaties available for those not kayaking.Communication with the host was clear and easy throughout our stay. Overall, a great experience!

Annual family lake trip

We had a fabulous stay! Property is in a beautiful location! It is an incredibly steep walk from the home to the water and this would be very problematic for anyone with health issues or very young children. Just something that needs to be communicated well in the listing. Home/ kitchen in particular could be more detailed as far as cleaning. Kitchen needs a few additions such as baking dishes and large bowls. We prepared all meals at the home and these items were not well stocked. Fabulous stay and would recommend!

Lovely retreat

We had a great stay at this home-you will feel like you’re in an oasis sitting on the screened in porch. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need. The house is spotless and the hosts have been so thoughtful with making sure the home feels just like what it is- a true home away from home. Would stay here again in a heartbeat and hope to be back in the near future!

Great get a way!

Absolutely loved the property! Jennifer was an amazing host! Home was well appointed and clean and beds super cozy. It was quite a steep walk to the lake....but worth it. And check out the 4th bedroom....it is only good for small kiddos as it is quite tight. Thanks for a fantastic vacation in your lovely home!

Great lake house!

Our group really enjoyed reading/ napping on the screened porch. You can hear the lake from the porch but not really see it because of the density of the trees. We also spent a lot of time on the lake kayaking, swimming and paddle boarding. It is a steep path but worth it. We cooked all our meals in the well equipped kitchen and roasted marshmallows in the fire pit. My only negative is that the 4th bedroom is not really a bedroom. My teen daughters were supposed to stay there but it is so small that one of them opted for the couch.

Beautiful house on an amazing lake

New house with beautiful furnishings and roomy for 10 or more if needed. Plenty of places to hang out including two living rooms, a screened in porch and a downstairs area where you can cook out and have a bonfire. All the beds were comfortable. The owners are very nice and attentive. Jumping off the pier, kayaking, and renting a boat were highlights.

Two Weeks of fun

Rented lake house for 2 weeks to allow for different schedules of my family members. Long walk to dock but well worth it. Kids enjoyed jumping off upper level. Was able to keep my jet ski under dock for entire 2 weeks. SUPs and Kayaks got lots of use.

Pictures don’t do justice!

This was a beautiful property in a beautiful location. Unlike many mountain properties, this was very easy to get to. We were impressed with this beautiful and comfortable home. It was the perfect place for our family to spend time together. We will need to go back and spend more time to do all the activities available here. Jenn was the BEST host! She responded to all questions, both before and during our stay within minutes and was always eager to assist. Walkway to lake is challenging but worth it and also typical for ANY property in this area. I am 67 and not in great shape but made the walk several times a day. House is well stocked and offers more activities than we able to do. Definitely would use again and recommend to others!
