About this property

Mountain Days| Pet Friendly, Fire Pit, Boat Slip

Newly constructed and filled with luxe furnishings and rustic chic design elements, this upscale mountain home seamlessly incorporates modern luxury with craftsman-style charm. Ideal for family vacations, multiple couples traveling together, or those who have the flexibility to work remotely, Mountain Days is also the perfect vacation spot for those who want to bring the whole family along-including the pups! Upon entering the home, you'll immediately be greeted by the floor-to-ceiling windows that offer spectacular woodland views along with the spacious open layout. The gourmet kitchen offers everything you could possibly need and more—from the gas range stove to the stainless appliances to the coffee cart equipped with a grinder, French Press, and dual machine drip and Keurig with reusable filters to the added bonuses like an Instapot and waffle iron-cooking will be a pleasure instead of a chore.

The dining area accommodates up to 6 and provides the perfect place to savor delicious food and great conversation while the chic living area provides the perfect spot to cozy up around the gas logs fireplace and take advantage of the 50" Smart TV, DVD player, and movie collection, board games, and easy deck access. Venture outside to find the impeccably-appointed covered deck area with a 6-person high-top dining table that's perfect for enjoying your meals together while taking advantage of the temperate mountain climate. In addition to the dining table, there is also a sectional sofa and coffee table that serves as the perfect spot for morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening.

Just off the deck is the gorgeous stone fire pit area with Adirondack seating for up to 4 that reveals stunning views of Table Rock and Hawksbill Mountain. Other outdoor features include exclusive access to Arbor community amenities such as the covered pavilion area with wood-burning fireplace and park-style grills and access to a private boat slip on Lake James so you can spend your day boating, swimming, fishing, and sunbathing to your heart's content. While beautiful, the remote location of most mountain homes often means sacrificing internet connection and speed, but at Mountain Days, their high-speed internet starts at over 100 MBPS enabling seamless streaming, web surfing, and zoom video conferencing.

Enjoy the option of staying connected and working remotely while on your retreat or delight in some much-needed R&R without any distractions—the choice is yours! Located just 45 minutes outside of Asheville in Nebo, NC, this stunning lakeside gem is the perfect place to vacation and enjoy everything the Lake James area has to offer. Enjoy nearby hiking trails like the Fonta Flora Trail Loop or John Rock Trail before grabbing a refreshing craft beer at Fonta Flora's open-air brewery at Whippoorwill Farm. If you're interested in experiencing small-town charm during your stay, take a short 10-minute drive to explore the shops, galleries, restaurants, and breweries like Mica Town Brewing Company and Spillway Bridge & Co. in downtown Marion.

Please note: This home is pet-friendly with an additional fee. This home has exterior cameras facing the driveway & a ring doorbell camera. This home is located within the Arbor subdivision of Lake James and offers exclusive access to community amenities that include a covered pavilion area with a wood-burning fireplace and several park-style grills. While this home is close to Lake James, it is not lakefront and does not offer its own private boat dock. However, it does offer a dedicated boat slip at the Arbor's residential marina on Lake James that's a short drive from the property. If interested in renting a boat during your stay, please contact Lake James Neighborhood Store or Noah's Landing.

Exclusive Neighborhood
Beautiful home that provides private and social gathering spots to meet everyones need. Hiking trails within the community and a backyard camp were the perfect pairing to get a family together.

Good times!
We went swimming, boating, fishing, and hung out at the marina with friends! Even had a band there one night! Good times! My son especially had a good time as he caught a huge 27” walleye out of the lake! And the cabin had plenty of room, great privacy, comfortable beds, an awesome fire pit, and corn hole boards. Lots of great rest and relaxation after being on the lake!

Escape the Florida Heat
Trophy house, functional floor plan, and well-equipped. We spent most of our 6 day stay puttering around Lake James in a rented pontoon that stored nicely at the included slip—also, a good location to day-trip to Ashville, Mt Mitchell, and Little Switzerland. The management team was there if needed, but the house was perfect and no help was necessary. Thank you!
