We love Nantahala lake, it’s always beautiful! The dock was perfect for swimming and fishing. We enjoyed the canoe and kayak. The cabin was good with many steps down to lake, but we didn’t mind the workout. We spent most of our time on the lake soaking up the mountain air.

Lovely getaway9

We had a lovely time at this lakeside cabin for a short honeymoon. A perfect getaway spot. The water was clean and cool, and the back porch was a perfect place to enjoy mornings and evenings. The cabin is clean and well cared for. We hope to come back again in the future.

We had a great time at the cottage! The private dock was perfect for swimming and just hanging out at the lake. The cottage itself is as advertised and "off the grid" so to speak. It was nice to not have the phones distracting us from our vacation.

Time away from heat

The house was remodeled and the bed was very comfortable. The stairs to lake was quite overwhelming but great dock when you get there. Had all that we needed, the owner has great artist on display. Loved our stay.

Amazing place to relax

We’ve stayed at Grace cottage twice now, once in the spring and once in the fall, and it’s always a wonderful place to relax. It’s private, clean and comfortable, and we cook all our meals there so we don’t even have to leave until time to go home. The lake is beautiful and not very busy, and the views of the surrounding mountains are amazing. We can’t wait to go back.

We love Grace Cottage and have stayed here many times. We had a great time swimming and fishing from the dock., caught some nice bluegill and bass. It's a quiet area as ever and time always slows down when we get there. Superb DVD collection with cabin classics like 'a river runs through it', Patch Adams and basically all the Studio Ghibli movies too. Long live Grace Cottage!! We'll be back.
