Beautiful views and location. Cabin is well equipped and the rooms are very comfortable. Fit our group of 15 adults just fine. Be warned - driveway is a bit steep!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this lovely cabin. The views are amazing. The spaciousness of the cabin was just what we needed. The host was very responsive and helped us out immediately. For example, one night we lost power momentarily because of the storm and I needed help resetting the Internet; even though it was after hours they helped us very quickly.

Loved the cabin, had great views and my family had a great time. The drive up and down can be a bit intimidating for some but it is well worth the effort. NOC is really close by, plan to return when the weather is warm enough to raft. Loved our stay!

The cabin is beautiful and spacious! The views are incredible! The cabin could've been cleaned a little more thoroughly but I am picky when it comes to cleanliness! The bed linens and toilets were clean. The home was well equipped with what our family needed. The oven did not work when we arrived. The rental company was easy to get in touch with and brought and installed a new stove the same day. We would stay here again!

Love the cabin, could use some updates. My cell signal gave me faster internet than the wifi. Brought our dog with us, he loved it too. Right at the entrance to Horse Branch trail so it's perfect for mountain bikers. Added a photo of our last sunrise there.

Great find, great views, mountaintop experience

This place is great for big gatherings. It has a great kitchen set up to do small preparations (you can’t run all the burners at once, but the dishwashers are amazing!) Ample bed space, four baths spread out, fun things to do and a nice hot tub! We loved it!

Great place for a family vacation

The cabin was spacious and comfortable for our family of 9. Sunrises are specular. Its a drive to the top, but it really is quite convenient to Lake Fontana, Tsali Park and Bryson City. We would definitely come back!

Great cabin and location

We've taken an annual work excursion to Lake Fontana for the last 3 years and this is our favorite cabin, yet! The location is easy to find and close to a marina. The layout of the cabin is nice as well. Really liked that the hot tub had its own deck and there was an outdoor fireplace (we didn't see these pictured) so it was a nice surprise. Property Manager was easy to contact. Would definitely stay there again!

Great Stay!

My sister and I had planned to have a larger group but it came down to just the two of us for the large property. We barely used most of the spaces. We spent the majority of the time in the hot tub and on the back porch overlooking the mountains. This place is gorgeous and had ever amenity you could need. The host was extremely helpful as well! Beautiful views!!!!
