Why the Owner Chose Lake Nantahala
We were looking for a mountain getaway and happened upon this home on Lake Nantahala. It provided the perfect blend of a beautiful home and a comfortable home that our kids could enjoy. The lake is beautiful, quiet and pristine. We have the fabulous views plus plenty of activities for the kids. We felt like we had found one of the best kept secrets in the North Carolina mountains.
The Unique Benefits at this Luxury Home
Lake Nantahala is a great place to relax. In the summer, it is always a wonderful relief from the heat of Atlanta. The lake is perfectly cool and refreshing. Best of all, it NEVER feels crowded. Our family enjoys skiing, tubing, swimming and canoeing. There is wonderful hiking, biking, horseback riding, white water rafting and even a public rifle range.
