Contemplate the day's activities, which could include golfing, whitewater rafting, tubing, swimming, water skiing, hiking, horseback riding, or any of the other many activities available. Perhaps a day of craft and antique shopping is in order...
Dinner can be had at any of the fine restaurants, or cook on the grill. In the evening the family can gather to play games, do puzzles, or simply watch TV, or DVDs, Everyone will enjoy a fire on a cool mountain evening.
Too busy? Well then get a good book, and head for the porch swing, hammock or rockers. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the woods and lake.
Relax and enjoy!

Your house was perfect in every way,both for us as a couple and when the kids joined us after camp. We could ask for nothing more to make our vacation any better. The weather was amazing, the hikes the best we've ever been on, and we loved the local music at Lake Toxaway Community Center on Friday night. Thaks for Everything!

Six years and counting...and as usual, the week at your lovely home has been the highlight of our year! Hours spent fishing...hiking...reading...swimming...and napping have left us rested and relaxed...much better prepared to return to the hustle and bustle of daily life. The house looked great...fresh paint and new porch furinture a lovely surprise. The yard was looking as pretty as ever..truly one of the prettiest years ever! Thank you for thinking of all of the little things...the small appointments that make it feel like such a welcoming home. We are already counting down the days until next year! Much Love M&S Aiken, SCDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Although some rain kept us from the boat we thouroughly enjoyed our week in your home. You provide all of the comforts of home!! When the weather broke, we had a wonderful time and enjoyed the fire at night,with smores down by the lake. Thank you for helping us find a home to purchase and look foward to spending time with you both in the upcoming years!

My husband and I rented and spent three relaxing days in this lakefront home after our wedding in Asheville on October 6th. We called this special time our mini moon because we will be traveling out of the country later this year, and just wanted a few days to relax and enjoy being together without interruptions after our wedding. We live in Asheville and it was so nice to be able to go somewhere close to home, but oh so pretty. We cooked meals, went on an epic fall hike in Panthertown Valley, and spent time on the boat. The home is so cozy with a great fireplace indoors as well as a fire circle right on the lake. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for fun in the mountains, relaxation and spending time with those you love.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

This was our second stay at Jeanne and Bob's Lake Toxaway cottage, and we had another wonderful, relaxing week. We slept like babies on the most comfortable mattresses ever, cruised the lake to fish and enjoy the fall foliage, and ate dinner at the Brown Trout Grille. The cottage was clean and inviting, and Jeanne and Bob are very attentive owners. We'll be back in 2013.

Hi Jeanne, Have been meaning to write a review and finally.... My family had one of our most memorable vacations at your lovely home. The location in the cove was very private, yet you could view your surroundings on the lake. Having the boat was priceless and we all know how breathtaking Lake Toxaway is. The fishing, hiking and exploring we did simply reinforces why we love the Highlands and Toxaway areas so much. To come home to the comforts of your cozy cottage was wonderful. My parents also came up and we had a nice birthday celebration for her - they loved the master suite upstairs! The Florida room was perfect for happy hour and our nightly fire in the fire-pit by the water (and marshmallows, thanks for bringing them to us!) always served as the perfect ending to our day. You and your husband are wonderful hosts - we hope to visit again soon. Best, Liz Belcher and familyRecommended for: Families with teenagers.

I can't say enough positive things about Jeanne and Bob--and their wonderful home. This is our second year to stay here. This year we stayed for 2 weeks--& it still wasn't long enough. Our grown children talk about their experiences here all year long. They plan ahead so they can be with us. The home is wonderfully equipped, the beds are very comfortable, having the boat is a complete luxury. We enjoyed the fire pit and swimming off the dock. The house is well maintained. Both Jeanne and Bob are extremely responsive to any request--no matter how small they provide resources & resolutions. We're hoping to return next summer for 2 weeks--wish we could spend the summer there. The water is gorgeous.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

Owner info
Year Purchased: 1996
About the owner: My husband Bob and I are from Fort Myers Fl since the 1970's although originally from Indiana and NJ respectively. We bought our home in NC as we both grew up on Lakes in our childhood. Lake Toxaway brought us back and gave us the best of both worlds! I am a Real Estate Broker with Hazel R. Fisher & Associates in LakeToxaway and Bob is my right hand man!
Why the Owner Chose Lake Toxaway:
Dead End street, level lot, old lake charm (updated) cozy and comfortable with a view that is one of the best!
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
We love the little neighborhood with neighbors close enough to 'holler' at, but with the privacy afforded by being the last house on the dead end road, private dock and level lot, big decks and a shaded yard! The fire pit, hammock and swing add to the relaxing mode amongst the many flowers!
