The cabin was more than we expected. The different levels made it very private for the family to be together. Everything was provided for cooking and they had a lot of board games for enjoyment. The cabin was very clean and lake was beautiful. I will go back and try it out in the summer months as well!

Owner response:Dear Lee Ann, Thanks for your positive comments on your visit to Serenity on Cedar. We're looking forward to having you return this summer. With kind regards, Carol

True Family "Serenity" Thanksgiving

My family met to spend Thanksgiving week at Serenity on Cedar. It was absolutely FABULOUS!. It was layed out perfectly for my family and having 2 kitchens really worked well with all of our Thanksgiving fixings. The cabin is very well equipped, immaculate and so very cozy. The views are absolutely breath taking. It is such a peaceful spot to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday busy lives. Our famiily really enjoyed using the boats for recreation and fishing. Also, the owner Carol was very accomodating. She called to check on us several times and when we discovered we did not have ESPN to watch football she immediately had it added for us. It served as a big slice of serenity and fellowship for my family. We will definitely be going back....my kid's are already asking if we can go back this summer. The only negative I have is the road getting down into the cabin is VERY steep and trecherous so proceed down VERY carefully and then enjoy!

This cabin has to be the most beautiful one my family and I have ever stayed at. Great vista, great rate, great location. Perfect spot for friends, family or honeymooners.

WOW!!! Not even sure where to start. "Serenity on Cedar" is just as the name implies. The vista is majestic. I spent a week with family & friends and as I write these nostalgia is setting in. We never wanted to leave. (we even thought about calling Carol to put in an offer on the cabin-LOL) If you have a large group or just the 2 of you, "Serenity on Cedar" is the place to stay. We can not wait to go back next year. Be sure to check out the beautiful hand made pottery they offer too. the prices are great for beautiful one of a kind peices of art. "Serenity on Cedar" will be in my families memories forever.

Serenity on Cedar was even better than we anticipated! Even the rain didn't stop us from relaxing and enjoying our week by the lake! Thank you so much for sharing your cabin with us!

Serenity On Cedar is a great place to relax with family and friends. The photos on the website do not do the cabin or the scenery justice. You have to be there to appreciate how beautiful the cabin is; the mountains and lake are just picture perfect. The cabin is not only nicely decorated, but it is well equipped with kitchenware. There are also lots of games that you can play with your family when you want to stay indoors. The cabin is very close to the lake for easy access. The lake is barely occupied so you can feel safe to do any kind of water sports. Our family just could not have had a better time anywhere else! The Romagnolis and Zions

We were a party of ten people and we had an incredible time during our one week stay. The cabin surpassed all of our expectations. It is reminiscent of the kind of "dream home" which we would all imagine to own one day. This cabin is extremely remote and secluded on a lakefront hillside and there is virtually no sign of human kind when you look out over the magnificent green hills. The cabin has two outdoor decks overlooking the lake which have eating tables, bench swings and a hammock. If you're an early riser you can see the mist coming off of the water and hear the owls calling to one another. The cabin was immaculate and beautifully landscaped with colorful flowers abundant in the entryway and the internet access allowed us to check our emails and surf the net during our stay. Our teens loved the family barbeques, DVDs, board games, swimming, fishing and kayaking. On one day, we drove to see the nearby Biltmore Estate, and on another, we went shopping in nearby Cashiers...although it was difficult leaving such an extraordinary cabin. I would be truthful also in saying our hostess was very helpful and gracious and we will always treasure the time we spent there. Sarah Calcagno & Family

This home is truly a slice of heaven. We spent one week in mid- February and entertained family in from Atlanta. This home is very well equipped and the views and scenery are unmatched. What a totally relaxing week and we will return in late summer '07.Thanks again Carol and Ed.

The cabin was beautiful. It was so very clean and peaceful. The lake was beautiful -to cold to get in but beautiful to look at. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the area. We rode the polar express train while visiting. Overall a very nice relaxing trip. And the owners were so nice and helpful. Thanks.

If you love beauty and peace and quiet, you will not be disappointed. This cabin looks out on a gorgeous lake with beautiful deck views on 2 levels. We were there for 4 days and only saw 2 boats go by. AND we couldn't see any houses until we went out on those great kayaks and the canoe - absolutely blissful. We finally saw a few houses as we rowed, but they were high above us. We were there with longtime friends and felt no need to go to the nearby restaurants, which had great reviews. There are two kitchens and a grill, much more than we needed. We can't wait to come back.
