On a ridgetop at 3600 feet, Misty Laurel Chalet has a beautiful view of Lake Nantahala and the Smoky Mountains. It's a great place to escape the Low Country heat as it's 15-20 degrees cooler than at sea level in the South and it's often breezy. Imagine awakening to a gorgeous view of the lake and then taking a brisk walk thru a lovely forest with crisp, clean air.

Misty Laurel is spacious - 2400 square feet - with two living areas, both equipped with flat screen TVs, DirecTV HD satellite receivers & DVD players, in addition to three bedrooms, so the kids can entertain themselves downstairs while the adults enjoy themselves upstairs. There's also an extra dining table, full-size refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker downstairs, so that increases the privacy options. Take a look at the floorplan illustrations below.

For ADVENTURE SEEKERS: check out the Area Attractions on our supplemental website at www (dot) mistylaurel (dot) com for information about horseback riding, ziplining, whitewater rafting, biking, fishing and hiking.

We are again offering a FREE half-day pontoon boat rental at Lake's End Marina or a FREE half-day guided fishing trip with Dale Raxter of Nantahala Guide Service with rentals of at least a week in duration! For many of our previous guests, these excursions have been among the most memorable highlights of their visits to Misty Laurel. Lake Nantahala is spectacular and there's no better way to see it than from a boat. Dale is a life-long Nantahala resident and will regale you with his tales as a park ranger and tracker!

                        Our vacation at Misty Laurel Chalet was so relaxing. The cabin is beautiful, and has an incredible view of Lake Nanataha and mountain ranges. Pat, the owner, is so helpful, you feel like family. We especially enjoyed fishing with Dale Raxter, Nanataha Native fishing guide. Also, we loved rafting the Nantahala River, renting from NOC. We highly recommend this cabin, and will be renting it in the future.

                        We like to hike and see waterfalls and we always bring our dogs with us. This cabin is beautiful with the most amazing views of the lake. The gate on the porch is great so the dogs could sit out side with us and enjoy the view. We had everything we needed in the cabin. Many pet friendly VRBO's we have stayed at are not as well kept and well equiped as Misty Laurel. Patrick was more than helpful with all paper work, directions and making sure we were comfortable. We only wish we had more time to stay and use the canoe and get out on the water. The grocery store is only about 20 to 30 mins away, along with trails and waterfalls. Great area for outdoor adventure seekers and perfect rental for lake lovers and bringing your fur kids! Thank you for a perfect vacation!

                        We built out family vacation around a seven night stay at Misty Laurel and had a great time. The cabin was just as advertised -- large, well cared for, clean, having great views and many modern comforts. Using the cabin as a base-point we hiked, watched mountains, clouds, and colorful songbirds, toured local waterfalls, ate a 2.5 pound family burger offered at the marina, rafted through NOC, pontooned and tubed on the lake, and stayed up late watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy on the big TV. Our dog had the run of the place as well. Pat was always available and prompt in communication, suggestions, answering questions, and administratively (four hours after we left we got an email confirming our security deposit refund was on the way). This was our first visit to North Carolina. Living in Chicago, we usually head out west for mountains. We definitely recommend Misty Laurel for a family vacation.

                        Recommended for: Pet owners, families with teenagers, sightseeing.

                        Owner response: I am really glad to know Misty Laurel met your expectations in every way and that you and your family had a great time in the area! I hope you will be able to come back for another visit sometime in the future! Pat

                        I used this house for both business and pleasure and it was great for both. The house was clean, well kept, and had plenty of room. The view of the mountains and lake was excellent. The owner was super helpful whenever we had questions. We will definitely recommend it to our friends.

                        We just came back from a weekend at Misty Laurel Retreat. This place was fantastic! The house was beautiful and the rooms were spacious and nice. The view from the deck and living room was stunning. It overlooked the lake and mountains. We were amazed at the items provided for us: aluminum foil, ziplock bags, fluffy towels, board games, every kitchen gadget we could want, and more! We were able to bring a dog with us, which was nice. You could not tell the place had ever had a dog in it. It was immaculate! The owners were great to work with. They were pleasant and accomodating. We are already planning our next trip!

                        After moving to SC from TX, we were looking for a quiet place to "hide-out" and let our dogs play since they have been cooped up in an apt for months until we find a home to buy. This cabin is exactly what we needed! The view is amazing! The cabin was extremely clean, well-equipped with everything you can imagine and working with Pat and Jo was simple. The nearest cabin was down the gravel road a piece and no one was even in it! Though there was no hot tub, the two level covered porch was terrific to sit on and just listen to nothing but birds. My 20 yr old daughter and my husband took the canoe/trailer offered by the owner out to the lake a couple of times and fished while floating in a peaceful and beautiful lake. Great waterfalls, stores not too far; maybe 20 minutes. They also have a nice portable fire pit that we used for s'mores! This cabin was nice and large with 3 floors and comfy beds/great baths. Full size washer and dryer, too. The one night it rained, we loved listening to the rain hitting the roof. Our 2 dogs totally enjoyed being free to roam around the cabin, and the dogs can be safe on the porch because it has a gate to keep them from roaming off the porch. Simply relaxing! You'll love it here!! It's about a 2.5 hour drive from Anderson, SC. We will definitely return this summer and fall to see the great colors offered by the forest of trees.

                        Smokey Mountains at Christmas? There is nowhere else I want to be. The drive to this BEAUTIFUL chalet was an adventure. There is nothing below a five star. From the moment we walked in the door, it felt like home. We had 4 adults, 12 year old, 9 year old and a 3 year old. Did I forget to mention the 2 dogs? It never felt crowded. If this is what cabin fever is, I'm more than happy to have it. Pat was so wonderful. He cares greatly for his guests and makes sure that everything is perfect. (He even called us at home to make sure we made it back safely). This was the best gift we could have given and received for Christmas. Thank you so much!!!

                        The chalet was everything you said it was and more. The view is amazing and the place was an experience for us city folks. The chalet was clean and had everything you could want. Eating dinners looking at the view is something you have to experience. There is so much to do and go to around the area you can't get it all in the first time and we will have to come back to do it all over again. Pat you were so helpful with information and maps. It was a pleasure to rent your beautful home! Our two Maltese dogs loved the chalet and thanks again for letting us bring them.

                      Owner info

                      Year Purchased: 2007

                      About the owner: Pat and Jo are, respectively, a retired scientist (biologist) and educator (Spanish & French). Our puppy, Mitzi, a miniature poodle, loves being at Misty Laurel!

                      Why the Owner Chose Lake Nantahala:
                      We love to get away from the heat and humidity of Florida (Tallahassee) and Misty Laurel Chalet at Lake Nantahala is a great place to cool off and have fun!

                      The Unique Benefits at this Cabin:
                      While it's nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, we still need to be able to keep in touch. DSL internet access provides for this need, so we can still fulfill our obligations as consultants, etc.
