Round Mountain Lodge, a charming get-away perched above Lake Jocassee on the edge of Gorges State Park, provides an amazing retreat from life's hectic pace. It is only 2 miles from 'The Wilds Camp and Conference Center' and Georges State Park, Frozen Creek access.
Set on the south side of Round Mountain between the quaint mountain towns of Brevard and Lake Toxaway, Round Mountain Lodge is not simply a house in the mountains, but a "mountain home."
The main living area boasts a cathedral ceiling and mountain views from a bank of south-facing windows. The fireplace, dressed in floral tapestry, dominates the living area. Warm wood graces interior walls. The downstairs bedroom holds a king sized bed; another large upstairs room boasts a comfy queen. All bedrooms have down comforters. The Bunk Room holds two sets of bunk beds, making Round Mountain Lodge the ideal lodging choice for two families who wish to vacation together.
The den, home to twin trundle beds, contains family games, puzzles and media equipment. Children can watch a DVD while adults share conversation in the quiet of the living area. Peruse the books in the "Loft Library" or venture onto the rock outcropping below the porch to pick blackberries.
Watch the fog roll up the mountains from the porch swing. Discover one of six waterfalls within walking distance to the Lodge. All ingredients for the perfect mountain retreat are found amidst the tranquility and mountain splendor of the Blue Ridge Escarpment.
One of only 40 homes on the 1200 acres on Round Mountain, the Lodge boasts spacious rooms, comfortable and ample furnishings, and amenities that define it as a home rather than a "rental unit". This beautifully decorated home is amply supplied with accoutrements for the perfect mountain get-away. In any season, Round Mountain Lodge will call you back again and again.

From Fall 2006: - We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend. We loved the view, the nearby waterfalls, and the big rock to catch some afternoon sun!
Positive Rating
From Fall 2006 We could not have asked for a better house tucked away in the the Blue Ridge, a better weekend to be here, or better friends to enjoy it with. Thank you for blessing us with Round Mountain Lodge. We definitely look forward to coming back. Thank you for such a refreshing weekend!

Happy New Year. We had the best time. It felt like home from the first day. We enjoyed all our day trips hiking to waterfalls and parks. We took one short day trip to Biltmore - very nice. Had all the amenities in the kitchen, lots of firewood too. We look forward to our next trip here for our mountain-view extravaganza.

Oh how I love these mountains. We spent hours and hours on the porch enjoying the mountains and listening to the sounds. Listening to music, watching the light change, reading, enjoying dinner and the company of friends. It was perfect, it is perfect. Just what a city girl needed to slow down and relax in peacefulness.

What's great about this beautiful setting? The view, the mountain scents, the nature sounds, the remoteness. I've looked at 20 mountain cabins with hoped of buying and none can compare to Round Mountain Lodge. Thanks for the welcoming touches and the wonderful A - Z boo. We came here for a week and have seen 12 waterfalls. This place has all the comforts of home and more. We will be back.

This home and the extra touches were terrific. We love the porch looking out unto the mountains while a fire roared in the fireplace. We'd love to make this an annual tradition with friends.
