The cabin is spacious with plenty of room for a family. It has a great view of the lake and the backyard area with the hot tub, hammock and fire pit is a fantastic space. Plenty of activities such as the pool table, or board games and the kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and eat in. Morning coffee on the porch overlooking the lake is wonderful and having the windows open listening to the mountain rain is so relaxing. It's a very peaceful, relaxing mountain getaway. We enjoyed ourselves the and the s'mores are always a family favorite.

A perfect, much needed stay! The crisp morning mountain air, the calm and serene lake below, and the quiet and relaxing vibe made this stay one of our absolute favorite places we have EVER stayed at. If we are ever near the area again or just need a long weekend getaway, we are definitely going to look here again! Great for the kids, parents, and grandparents. My mom was with, who doesn't move around as well anymore, and the single floor layout (including outside) was absolutely perfect for her, too!

Perfect get away !

For our first visit to the mountains of NC, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. This lake house was amazing- the owners attention to detail was just beyond any expectations. We enjoyed everything about it, the s'mores welcome kit was the highlight of it all.
