Fontana Lake Cabin w/ Private Dock , Fishing Pond, Huge Covered Porch & 50+ Acre

This is a unique property for those who really want to get away from it all and who enjoy an active lifestyle in the great outdoors. Extremely private, this vacation home is nestled on 50+ acres of property that backs up to thousands of acres in the Nantahala Forest. Right on a pond with a private dock to Fontana Lake.

A 5 minute walk down the driveway next to our private and pond and then across a dirt road leads to our private cove and dock on this lovely jewel of the Smokies.

Jump off your own private dock into 25' of the purest, cleanest water imaginable. 85 degrees all summer long. Many guests bring their own kayaks, canoes, and fishing boats. Fish, swim or just relax next to the water. Bring the toys to splash in the lake. You won't want to leave the dock during the summer season.

*Please note that the lake levels are dam controlled and vary throughout the year. Typically we have a full lake from Memorial Day to Labor Day with accessibility year round from Fontana Marina - 10 minutes from the house. If you are visiting in the Fall or EARLY Spring, the cove will be lowered. We adjust our seasonal prices to accommodate for this. That said, you can still absolutely access the lake and enjoy it from several public access points.

The Main cabin has three bedrooms, a master bedroom with a King bed, a downstairs bedroom with a king bed and an upstairs bedroom with two bunk beds. Each bunk bed has a queen bed on the bottom and a twin bed on the top. The main cabin has a primary bathroom with shower, laundry room, vanity, and toilet. There is a second bathroom off the main floor king bedroom with a shower, vanity, and toilet.

There is also a separate, tiny cabin with a deck that has a queen bed. It is a short walk from the Tiny cabin to the 800 square foot covered porch nestled on the side of a hill. There is also a bathroom with a shower and toilet on the outdoor deck. The cabin is designed to encourages outdoor living and we spend 90% of our time on the porch, with three ceiling fans, when not playing in the lake or on the property.

The porch (outside living room) has a massive stone fireplace, surrounded by comfy seating. You will love roasting marshmallows by the fire every night or sipping coffee in the morning.

The porch also features a bathroom and an instant hot water shower. So the tiny cabin inhabitants don't need to go into the main house when showering or using the facilities. The shower has a little window overlooking the stream that runs next to the porch in the side yard. Our girls love to pan for gold in the stream for hours.

A charcoal grill is provided but guests should add charcoal to the grocery list to be sure they are fully equipped when arriving to the property (charcoal is not provided).

Walking up the property, there are several trails that lead to the top of the ridge where the old forest road runs for miles. If you're up for a leisurely 3 mile hike (once at the top) you can travel it to the end and you will be in the cove where they shot the Jody Foster movie, "Nell".

If you love to fly fish, it does not get better than this! Native Browns a short boat ride away.

This is a great place for outdoor adventurers. Some of the best mountain biking in the world is a 15 minute drive away at Tsali, where there are miles of trails that sweep along remote coves of Fontana lake.

The Nantahala Outdoor Recreation center is only 15-20 minutes away where you can go for lunch, a beer, or take a guided white water rafting, ziplining, hiking, or kayaking trip.

Wintertime enthusiasts: While the lake is too low to use from our cove, you can still absolutely access it from Fontana Marina. Additionally, Beech Mountain is only 45 minutes away, for fun NC skiing day or night.

We are also only 25 minutes from beautiful Bryson city, often voted the prettiest mountain town in America. There is so much to do in town, from browsing quaint little antique shops to riding the valleys and river on the old Bryson train.

Bikers are welcome, and our road is accessible to motorcyclists. We also have a covered garage area to accommodate your ride! The Tail of Dragon starts right outside our road, the best motorcycling on the East Coast and you're a short ride to the Cherohala Skyway, Moonshiner 28, Blueridge Parkway, and more.

Please note that we will NOT rent to large groups who are just here to party.

If you're looking for a city experience, this is not it. If you're looking for breathtaking views, adventure, hiking, fishing, biking, exploring, and time with family and friends, look no further.

*Please note that the lake levels are dam controlled and vary throughout the year. Typically we have a full lake from Memorial Day to Labor Day with accessibility year round from Fontana Marina - 10 minutes from the house.

Awesome location to disconnect and spend time with family and friends. We had a great time hiking the trail up to the back country mountain road and enjoying the remote location. The outside fireplace was a big hit with us being able to gather everyday and enjoy the company.

Family Vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Camp Cotton. The cabin was cozy and the property grounds were beautiful. We took full advantage of all this property has to offer....from fishing in the pond to enjoying time out on the covered porch in the evenings! Love the proximity to the lake and it's secluded dock access. It was the perfect escape for our family of four during the pandemic and we hope to visit again n the near future.

Great owner

We loved this place... great house, lake, pond, yard. We recommend it! The house wasn't particularly clean when we arrived, but the owner was very apologetic and made things right. His communication was excellent and I would highly recommend this rental not just for the rental itself, but for the excellent customer service.

Excellent Getaway!

A beautiful place with lots of area to explore without leaving the property. Still, relatively convenient to Robbinsville for shopping, etc. Love that dogs are allowed. Ours had a fantastic time on the trails and by the fire in the evenings. The owners don't provide the codes for getting into the property until the morning of check-in (this would have been comforting to know in advance for me). When we arrived, the lockbox did not have the keys, but the owner was fantastic about helping to get us in!

Secluded Paradise with the Smokey Mountain National Park across Lake Fontana

This property is extremely secluded and away from it all! On the inside it is well furnished and brand new. It has a very cozy feel of a true cabin in the woods. Outside a well kept winding road leads to the front gate. Then a private drive leads up to two small ponds filled with fish and wildlife. In addition the house is surrounded by 50 acres of private wooded land with a variety of trails. Across from the gate head down to Lake Fontana with a beautiful dock where we were able to dock a large pontoon boat. Plus a canoe and kayak were provided as well. A fantastic place to really get away!

Nice cabin, remote location

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin and it was a lovely get-away! We enjoyed the trails on the property and exploring Fontana Lake with the water level low. The cabin was of a good size and the beds were comfortable. Tips for those staying here, we were glad we had AWD for the driveway, which is a bit steep, and a couple of the numbers are missing from the mailbox as far as identifying the property. I would also suggest bringing matches or a lighter for the wood stove that is used for heat if you are traveling when it is cold. We also enjoyed trips into Bryson City for the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and the Three Waterfalls hike, and a trip to the Fontana Dam, all of which we found to be a bit farther drive from the house than mentioned in the listing. (For us Bryson City was at least 35 min and Fontana Dam was 20 minutes.). It is also helpful to allow extra time for communication with owner through the VRBO messages. Beautiful property!

This is an awesome cabin rental.

I would stay again. My grandfather in-law passed away so I took my wife along with her grandmother and mother away to this cabin for a getaway. We originally wanted to stay in Gatlingburg to spread the ashes, however there were no cabins anywhere in TN in the short time and proximity to Christmas we had. This cabin is only an hour and fifteen to Gatlinburg. So this was basically the only option we had and i'm glad it worked out that way. The cabin is pretty secluded so it was incredibly peaceful with many wilderness options. Plus all the reviews i read were awesome, the only problem i had is the reviews i was reading were from guests who stayed in summer months. I decided to stay anyway. Chelsea is the contact person for this property and i must say i had many questions along the way and she always answered them within the hour i had the question. Most other rental managers take at least 24 hours to get a response. Anyway we had an awesome time, even though we didn't get to try the zip line that runs from the deck to the lake, due to frozen water. Next time we will stay during the summer! Again thank you Chelsea! we had a great time.

What a hidden treasure...

There were 9 of us with six of them being kids and despite there being no satellite/cable, and the WiFi was not working we had a blast. We rented a pontoon boat from Prince Boat Dock because they let us keep it over night. We Fished, tubed on the lake, and swam in the lake. It is so deep that fishing was hard in the summer, but fun nonetheless. It is also near White Water Rafting, so we were able to do that as well. We spent most of the evening on the large porch with the fireplace and fans... Believe it or not, very little bugs when the fans are on. ALso follow the map in the cabin to the national park trails. It’s wonderful... So you can hike for hours, and boat for hours. WE also did the zip line at the house and it was well worth it if you have kids.... They loved it. THe house was clean and the caretaker was a wonderful person who was very informative. The pond on the property is full of fish for the kids to catch, and other than a long walk to the dock it was great. If you are going in the fall/winter, I know they drain the lake a lot so you might want to check before you go because the dock may be on dry ground. All in all, I can’t wait to go back, and other than the WiFi not working to watch Netflix it was great. But no WiFi did turn out to be a blessing in disguise because the kids actually had to play..... ha ha ha Lovely home!

Property is a 5-star; house is disappointing

When we opted to rent the property, we were happy to hear from other renters that the property was a 5-star one. The need for a 4x4 is real, as the approach is a windy gravel road. The grounds are just as described. We stayed over the Christmas holiday, so using the water activities or the fishing in the pond was out. The lake was very low, so that was out, as well. But this has nothing to do with the review. The hiking trails were clearly marked on a map in the property book. We definitely enjoyed that part of the trip. The shooting area was great, as well. The targets are easy to spot and are well distributed around the property. The disappointing part was the house. We've stayed at several other homes in the past, so maybe we have been spoiled. Given the price of our 10-day stay, we expected much more. The house needs to be remodeled. It is very dated. You enter through the kitchen. It is well-equipped with lots of pots and pans, dishes, glassware & cooking utensils. The refrigerator is older and the ice maker wasn't working. It works well, so we assume that's why it hasn't been replaced. The stove burners were dirty when we arrived, which we cleaned off of the ceramic cooktop to avoid further damage. The oven is missing the bar-handle, which makes opening the oven dangerous. There is no dining room in the house. The photos show a dining room table but it is located outside under the covered patio by the gas grill and outdoor fireplace. Luckily we were only 3, so we ate inside on the kitchen counter. Dinner in the cold is not what we were looking for. We usually look to enjoy a fireplace inside the house. The half-wall in the master bedroom isn't conducive for privacy. If someone is watching a movie on the living room side, you hear it in stereo. The master bathroom was comfortable, but older. The washer & dryer were in the bathroom, and I have to say the machines were great. The Wi-Fi was spotty, which made watching Netflix or Amazon almost impossible. The house's landline was disconnected, so in case of emergency, not having cellular service and the bad Wi-Fi connection is unnerving. Bottom line is that the house isn't homey, which is what we look for in a Christmas getaway. It wasn't decorated for the season, which might help. The main house is a 3/2 plus the pod. There should be a fire pit on the side of the house that faces the pond. That was a great spot to sit and view the water.

A wonderful time.

We had such a wonderful time staying here. It was so comfortable and plenty of room to run. The views around the cabin are spectacular. We’ve never stayed in this particular area of the mountains before but this was exactly what we were hoping for. Tons of area to mountain bike, hike, fish and just get out & explore. The cabin had lots of space for adults and kids. The kids loved the games and loft areas and we all enjoyed the outdoor areas as well. It was very scenic and just far enough from all the hustle & bustle of city life.

Drive a truck

We enjoyed a great time with our friends and kids at the cabin. The drive was much longer to get places than we anticipated. Mountain miles aren’t the same as road miles. (Totally our fault.) The lake was low, which we knew ahead of time, and I bet it’s so gorgeous when it’s full. It didn’t stop us from using it. We bought tubes and floated around. The house was very clean and well stocked. The only thing that was challenging for us was taking the garbage to the dump everyday. No one wanted to put it in our SUVs. Next time we would drive a truck. Very peaceful.

We live in South Florida and love the Smoky Mountains. This is our seventh year renting Camp Cotton and we're so glad to welcome you. We love this property, it has been a dream for us to own such a place. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

It is very unlikely you will find anything like our 50+ acres with trails, epic hiking on the ridge through Nantahala, a private cove and dock just a short walk away, a fully stocked fishing pond and an amazing, huge porch with a massive stone fireplace to keep everyone enjoying the outdoors until bedtime.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

So private. Yet we still have Internet! If you're hoping to stream for days, this is not ideal. The remote nature of our property does mean you will need to forgo a digital trip and get outside to enjoy! Cell coverage is not great. We're near Tsali, the NOC, the Appalachian Trail, the world famous Tail of the Dragon, Bryson City and the 20-Mile entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
