Ideal Family Spot

Our stay was everything we had hoped it would be. The house was spacious, clean and private, and equipped with what we needed to entertain ourselves and prepare all the food we brought. The cove was a nice surprise....perfect for swimming, kayaking and fishing, and docking the boat we used to explore Lake James.

The property as advertised. We were able to have a wonderful family getaway on the lake. Despite every day rain, there was afternoon sunshine for fishing, swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding. In addition, we were able to go on a local 3 mile hike, obtain all of our supplies at super Walmart and enjoy the local downtown area at Marion. Bruce’s fabulous foods was a wonderful lunch spot. Bruce is gone, but certainly his spirit lives on through Barbara, his widow. She certainly loves her husband, their business they created, their staff and most of all the customers. I know you will love this spot.

Great property -- the pictures don't do it justice. The kitchen is well stocked, the floorplan well thought out & spacious and the path down to the lake is a nice touch as you walk down through the trees. The playroom was a hit with the kids as well.

Best Rental Property

We have stayed in many rental homes and I will say this one was the best we have stayed in. The home was exceptionally clean and well stocked. There was plenty of room to spread out and many game tables in the basement for our boys. There is not one negative comment I could say about this house, I highly recommend to anyone staying on Lake James.

This house was immaculate, beautifully decorated, kitchen was stocked with everything needed to prepare meals. The games downstairs were fun for the whole family. Access to the boat dock was perfect for our pontoon boat, and the paddle boards and kayaks were such fun to use. The wagon provided downstairs was handy to carry our coolers to the boat each day.

Beautiful new home with lots of amenities! Andrew was efficient and easy to work with.

Wished we had had a better view of the lake! Overall, great getaway with our adult kids!

Great place to take the family

Great house, just as pictured in the listing. I had a few questions for the owner and he was always prompt in replying. The house was very clean. Kids really enjoyed playing in the game room downstairs and going out on the kayak. Caught some smallmouth and largemouth bass off the dock. The walk down to the dock is not bad, though it is a reasonably steep incline back up -- just something to note if anyone in your party is frail or in very poor shape. We enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Gerstner

Host profile image
2016 I discovered Lake James from a family member that said it had the clearest water since it was the first lake of the Catawba, cleanest water since the water is coming right down the mountains, and the most beautiful views you can get. I took their advice, went out, and visited the lake with some friends to see what all the talk was about. They were right Lake James is hands down the most beautiful lake I have ever seen in North Carolina. After visiting the lake, I had to get a piece of it so I could share the splendor with everyone I could.

Why they chose this property

The lot is a 150-step walk down the paved sidewalk to the water. There are tons of things you can do at the house like ping-pong, foosball, shuffleboard table, and board games. Once your adventure outside you can play horseshoes, corn hole, hang at the fire pit, go kayaking, or paddleboarding. Your options are endless so come check us out and take your mind off the hustle and bustle of your busy life and make some memories.

What makes this property unique

The open floor plan of the home was crafted with a purpose of families and friends being able to enjoy and make memories together. From entering the front door a getaway that is welcoming with options for everyone to enjoy the lake and mountains.
