About this property

Lakefront Cabin with private Dock - 4 Kayaks - WiFi - Direct TV


Come and experience the magnificent magic of a waterfront cabin with your own dock right in the Western North Carolina's Smoky Mountains! The southern exposure will ensure bright warm sunny days and a beautiful view of the sunset in the evenings. The lake has numerous waterfalls and you can rent different watercraft at a marina nearby to explore the lake or enjoy different water sports.

Visit the traditional, quaint nearby towns of Highlands and Cashiers while staying on the lake. Lake Glenville at 3800 feet elevation has 26 miles of shoreline, is 4.5 miles long and over 1,460 acres is spring fed by 5 mountain streams. You can enjoy the refreshing 72 degree water while jet skiing, tubing, fishing and boating. The glistening shoreline of Lake Glenville has waterfalls, a Christmas tree farm, and beautiful picturesque homes.

This waterfront, A-frame vacation cabin has the master bedroom (with a extremely comfortable king size bed) and bath downstairs. Upstairs in the oversized loft are 2 twin beds and king bed and a full second private bath.

You can take your steaming, hot coffee outside in the screened-in porch to curl up with a good book or go out on the large, adjacent deck to enjoy the view. The cabin has a fireplace, wireless internet, Direct TV and all the amenities of home.

The dock will provide hours of entertainment. You can bring your own boat or rent one from the nearby marina and step right from your dock onto your boat. The are jet ski davits to hook up your jetski. We even provide two kayaks on the dock for your use.

The cabin was perfect for our father/son getaway. The boys enjoyed kayaking and swimming from the dock. The screened porch was a perfect place for all of our meals, especially eating dinner while watching the sunset. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed.

Lake cabin

Nice area and beautiful view of lake. Stairs down to lake are strenuous but great dock once you get there! I highly recommend the cabin. Debra, the owner, was very accessible and easy to work with.

Adorable home nestled in the mountains

This home was amazing! We were in town for a wedding. The location was perfect, secluded, yet close to beautiful hikes, waterfalls, and quaint towns. The view from the porch is unbeatable! The house was clean and well stocked with anything we could’ve needed. Thank you!! We will be back.

Summer getaway

Loved the house and location. Good outdoor spaces as well as indoors. Comfortable beds. Beautiful lake. Enjoyed the kayaks. Only downside was the long stairway to the dock. Some of us older folks struggled a bit but we knew this before we rented. Good exercise, right?

Awesome lake location

Adorable lake cabin perfect for a small family ready for lake adventures- kayaks, fishing poles, and swim platform on clear & clean lake made for a wonderful vacation. The proximity to the marina was excellent to rent a pontoon boat for a day of exploring and tubing. Short drive into Cashiers for dining options was nice too. The cabin was well-equipped as if you were staying at a family home and not just a commercialized STR. Construction was going on at the house next door which wasn’t ideal for a quiet morning coffee on on porch, but no other complaints. Our boys counted 177 steps down to lake so it was quite the workout even for being a family in shape- maybe not the best for elderly or handicapped people. The back porch still had a wonderful lake view. We truly enjoyed our mountain/lake trip and would definitely rent again!

Great outdoor living

Unique A-frame house is well cared for and updated. Very comfortable beds and furniture. Big screened porch and large open deck means you can enjoy the outdoors in any weather. Fantastic view of the lake. The 170 stairs to the dock are a little bit of a work out, but are stable with a sturdy hand rail. Table, chairs and kayaks are already there. Super!

Fun lake times

This was my husband and I second stay at this property and once again it did not disappoint. It’s a beautiful cabin with an amazing Lake view, and we love the lake access because we have dogs and there are stairs into the water, which is perfect for getting them in and out we spent hours at the lake every day and we can’t wait to go back next year. The only downside as a dog owner that I can see is the yard space is a very steep incline so walking around the neighborhood is a better bet But that gives you great exercise on those hills so that’s a win-win :-) Deborah is very responsive and the access to kayaks is very kind

Fabulous Views and Relaxation

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful Lakefront Cabin. It is a slice of heaven! The views were amazing and the house itself was very comfortable and relaxing. The decor was perfect for a lake retreat. It was very nice having both a screened in porch and the balcony to relax and enjoy the views. The master bed was very comfortable. We also very much enjoyed the wood burning fireplace and had plenty of firewood supplied for us. Having the dock with kayaks was an added bonus. The location of the cabin was perfect as it is in the middle of several neat towns and waterfalls. You can even head up to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and do the railroad trip in Bryson City. Debra was a great host and very easy to communicate with. She answered any questions we had immediately. We would definitely recommend this cabin and plan to come back one day. Thanks for everything Debra and Mark!

Relaxing, Beautiful Views and Home.

Beautiful views and home. Clean, quiet and well equipped EVERYTHING...kitchen(even a crock pot), linens, cleaning supplies, dock furniture and water toys, firewood...just amazing! No joke about the stairs to the dock but it is soooo worth it. Your on vacation, take your time and a breather along the way. The waterfalls on the lake are breath taking. Beautiful hummingbirds visited the feeder every day, the kids saw a bear on a neighboring dock, squirrels and really cool moths too! I have never seen a pink and yellow fuzzy moth! We never did find the tube downstairs but we did not need it as one came with the boat we rented. As another reviewer said...Book it!

Messy and dirty property

This is a dirty and messy house!!! Spiders everywhere. We encountered dirty dishes in the dishwasher, no sheets or blankets in the king size bed, dirty laundry seating in the bedroom, a complete disaster. The ad advivertises that this house accommodates 8, which is not accurate. There are only 3 twin beds and 1 kind bed. Overall an awful experience.

Pros: nice location with pretty views,especially at the pier. Kitchen and bathroom remodeled. Cons: I have been staying in rustic lakeside cabins in northern Wisconsin since the 1950's, but with the jumble of old,worn furniture and bric-a-brac it felt like living in a rummage sale rather than rustic. Also, the musty smell hit you at the door and did not disapate. The bed was so soft (I know a matter of taste) that we could not sleep. And the long steep,uneven steps down to the dock were sufficiently strenuous and dangerous, that once or twice a day down to the best part of the rental was all that you would want. Having stayed at many VERBO rentals over the years, this is the first one for which I question the integrity of the glowing reviews it received. We left a day eary (out of 3).

Very nice lakeside cabin, with all the amenities one might need. I enjoyed kayaking on the lake, and the lake was warm enough for swimming in August. Close proximity to the marina facilitated pontoon boat rental. Check-in & check-out was perfect.
