This is the life.... comfortable beds & couches spotless~lots of privacy. Fireplace is amazing. I would recommend a very heavy vehicle or 4WD due to steep incline. We drove a Ford Expedition and had no issues but my parents drove a Honda CRV and had some difficulty. Three sets of stairs, no t.v on main floor (which I LOVED) you can sit and read while watching the fire. Big t.v. on bottom level as well as in bedrooms. Nice linens & towels. Very nice gas stove. We have stayed at several places and this is my favortite yet:)

We just returned home from a wonderful week at the Elk View Lodge! We vacationed with another family: 4 adults, 6 kids (21-9) and 2 large dogs. The description above is completely accurate and the lodge was spotless! The bedrooms were fantastic, the beds comfortable. Tile showers, wood floors and gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances gave us the luxury we were looking for in the mountains! We had plenty of pans/dishes/etc for our party of 12. The lodge was stocked with all paper products and cleaning supplies-easy to keep it clean during the week! We had a boys room and girls room downstairs-the kids loved the pool table and having their own space! We spent mornings/evenings on the deck absorbing the beautiful view. There is a wonderful fire pit on the deck with plenty of wood to burn. We felt after our weeks of searching for the perfect spot in the mountains that we did indeed find the perfect place! I would HIGHLY recommend this lodge. The price is great and the accommodations are fantastic. The owners are great to work with! You will not be disappointed!!! We did love the beauty and serenity of the one-lane mile drive up into the mountains to our private log home. I only wish we could have stayed another week! We hiked around the log home, rented a pontoon boat on Lake Glenville (wonderful!!), slid down Sliding Rock, toured the Biltmore Estate , hiked Chimney Rock and went White Water rafting on the French Broad River. I would recommend all those activities. Most activities required a 30 min-1 hour drive, however the view, privacy and seclusion of the mountain was worth it.

Recommended for:Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing.
