Why drive to a lake when you have access to the lake right outside the cabin's door?
Love to hike? We've got you covered...... the Benton MacKaye Trail is outside the cabin's door along the shore line.
Want to fish? Head on over to the private dock, cast your fishing rod and just wait for the fish to bite.
Want to go for a swim? Head over to the private dock and jump in. Not a great swimmer.... we have life jackets available too.
So you like kayaking? There's no need to rent a kayak or travel down the mountain. We have 2 kayaks and 2 adult life vests for your use during an outing on the lake. Kids are allowed to use the kayaks but you will need to bring a kid's life vest.
Oh, it's an amazing view of the lake that you want....... ayeee!!!! this cabin has a panoramic lake view. You can get a view of the lake either by walking out onto the spacious wrap around deck, sitting on the deck in one of the 4 rocking chairs, peering outside the screened in deck while relaxing in the hot tub, cuddling up on the outdoor swing, roasting smore's at the fire pit and you even have a view of the lake from the main bedroom.
Did I mention the new Hot Tub? After a day of hiking, swimming and kayaking in the lake, or if you just want to relax....... turn on the jets and even turn on the lights to the hot tub and just relax and clear your mind.

We had a wonderful unplugged family vacation here. Cabin was perfect and very private feeling. Easy for a stay with small children and dogs. Property was clean and did not have any dog smells or anything. Owner was responsive to the minor issues we had. Would definitely recommend!
Thank you so much for your review — we’re really glad you enjoyed the place and the lake!
We noticed you rated your stay an 8 out of 10, and we’d love the opportunity to make it a 10 out of 10 next time. As a thank you for your feedback, we’d be happy to offer you a returning-guest discount on a future stay.

The cabin advertised as accessible but had no wheelchair ramp going into the cabin. My son had to be carried in and out of the cabin and had no where to sit for meals. When I messaged the host about the distress and inconvenience, their response was “thank you for the recommendations”. No offer to fix the immediate issue or compensate any of our expense. It was very disappointing, unsafe and frustrating. Do not stay here if your loved one is wheelchair bound. It is NOT accessible.
Love the cabin and location. The lake is a great touch and house location offers some privacy. You do not need 4wheel drive, however you do need some skill and nerve to get through the tight roads. It is also odd to have a lot of empty cabinets. Plan on doing dishes quite a bit and bring extra towels. Knowing this, we’ll probably be back.
Nice weekend away. Great Lake views, perfect time of year for a visit, the fall colors were beautiful. Thanks for sharing your cabin with us.

The property itself is absolutely beautiful. It is definitely a paradise. The cabin has a great layout but had several issues with sanitation. The grill was not cleaned and drip pan was full of grease. The master bedroom sheets were not checked nor washed and had been well (used). We had to wash them before we would consider laying on them. Also the garden tub was not cleaned efficiently and had nasty water come out after turning on the jets. The hot tub look great but smelled like mildew (long term use without changing the water). There were roaches in the kitchen (especially at night). You could see them all in the microwave and stove electronics. For the price we paid you would expect a 5star and it seems that a lot of reviews are 5star. But also throughout the guest book there were a lot of pages that had been torn out. Leads me to question if they were bad as well and got removed. All through everything was not up to par, we still had a great time and made the best out of our stay. We did take extra steps to try and better the experience for the next guest. We travel a lot and always have high hopes for get aways.
This cabin was all that we wanted and more! Quiet and secluded! We had two 12 year olds that fished from morning till night on the beautiful lake, Blue Ridge Tubing was another highlight of our trip to Blue Ridge! The kids have already asked about next summer! Highly recommend!
The cabin was beautiful and clean. We enjoyed kayaking and fishing on the lake. We would definitely recommend this place and come again for another family vacation.
This was a wonderful trip for some peace and quiet time. Perfect view of water. Paths make it easy access. We loved the fire pit and kayaks! Just a really nice place!
Everything as advertised. Beautiful scenery & ideal location. Kids enjoyed fishing, swimming & kayaking. When it rained the tvs & game table came in handy. Secluded & quiet but close enough to Elljay & Blue Ridge.
The property is beautiful and the cabin is functional and we were very happy to bring our dogs. The host responded well. However the washer was broken and full of water that had been there for awhile, which had a little smell. It was very dusty. I think the cabin is dated and could use some updating - unfortunately we waited to the last minute to book for Thanksgiving and paid over 800 a night for the cabin - more our fault then theirs. We just wished the price matched the experience.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the property beautiful, enjoyed the cabin’s functionality, and appreciated being able to bring your dogs, as well as our responsiveness during your stay.
We sincerely apologize for the issue with the washer during your visit. Since then, we have purchased and installed a brand-new washer to ensure this does not affect future guests. We also appreciate your note regarding dust and have reinforced our cleaning and inspection process.
The cabin is intentionally maintained as a rustic mountain retreat, and we aim to represent it accurately through our listing photos and description. Holiday periods such as Thanksgiving are in very high demand, and pricing reflects peak seasonal rates across the area. That said, we understand your perspective and value your feedback.
We would love the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future and are happy to offer a returning-guest discount should you decide to stay with us again. Please let me know if you’d like to discuss a future visit.
Thank you again for staying with us and for helping us improve.
We repeated our trip from last year and had just as much fun and relaxation as our first visit.
The property has an amazing secluded access to a small, peaceful lake that we loved kayaking and paddle boarding on.
The host is very responsive and checking in is a breeze. We brought all of our dogs with us and they loved the property oven more than we do!
Highly recommended cabin rental for anyone wanting a comfortable place to stay with an amazing lakefront property!
Stayed comfortably with my family of 5 and 2 large dogs. The pond was everyone's favorite. Kayaking and swimming or just sitting on the porch and watching the water was enjoyed by all. Cabin comfortably slept all 5 as well. Host was very accommodating and easy to work with too. Definitely can't wait to book again.
This was just what a cabin in the mountains in the summer should be Situated by a clean mountain lake with all the water toys you need to stay cool. Cabin was furnished with everything you need to enjoy your stay. As with most mountain cabins phone coverage was spotty but the wi-fi was excellent and we used wi- fi calling. Very private with nice porch and rockers for your relaxation as well as clean hot tub. Just be careful on the mountain roads as there are some rough spots but host not responsible. The county should be on top of this. We all enjoyed our stay very much.

Thank you for the great review! We’re delighted the cabin delivered the classic mountain experience — clean lake, water toys, peaceful privacy, porch rockers, and a relaxing hot tub. We’re glad the Wi-Fi worked well, as cell service can be limited in the mountains.
We also appreciate you mentioning the mountain roads — that’s helpful for future guests to know, and we agree the setting is absolutely worth it once you arrive.
We’re so glad everyone enjoyed their stay and would love to welcome you back anytime for another mountain getaway!
