We had good communication with the host before our visit. It was our first family trip to Lake Santeetlah, although my son was familiar with it from kayaking Cheoah River. I recommend side trips to Joyce Kilmer Forest and its giant 400+ year old poplar trees as well as the Tapoco Tavern. The pictures of the house are accurate and being right on the water would be super in the summer.
We had a lovely stay. The property was clean and spacious with awesome outdoor space. Very convenient to town. Property owners were easy to communicate with. We will definitely stay here again.

Great Place
This is a great place that is very clean and well maintained as shown in the pictures. We had a nice time and during our stay we enjoyed the large screened in back porch, using out wave runner on lake, tubing near Bryson City and going to one of the local zip lines. We recommend this place and plan on returning next summer.
Comfortable house on gorgeous Lake Santeetlah! Well stocked kitchen, beautifully maintained, personal dock and kayaks. Felt like we were staying at a “home” and not a rental.
The lake house was perfect for our family. The house had everything we needed. The kids loved the downstairs, with the bunk beds. The ease of getting to the lake was amazing. We spent many hours swimming off the dock.
Some might complain of the spotty Internet and cell service, personally I loved our family being a little disconnected from the world. Thank you for sharing your home with us
We loved our stay here! Everything was clean and orderly. So many provisions. Communication with the owner was great. The location and access to the water and dock can’t be beat (just a few steps down from where the kayaks are stored). Wonderful screened in porch with comfortable seating; endless views as the sun changed over the course of the day.

Another Wonderful Stay
This was my family's 3rd stay and it truly is a home away from home! We absolutely love the house and the lake and surrounding scenery is breathtaking. We spent a wonderful relaxing week on the lake both in our own boat that we brought down but the kids had a great time kayaking in the 2 kayaks that are on the property. Our favorite spot when not enjoying the lake was the screened in porch.
Gail and Ron are wonderful people to work with and have always been very helpful and accommodating! They even left us a wonderful pie, which everyone loved!
This is the 2nd time for my husband and I staying at this lake house. The house is immaculate and clean, bed is comfortable and is well stocked with all that we needed. The lake is just steps away. We brought our own kayaks for fishing and had no problems getting them to the dock. We loved exploring Lake Santeetlah - the view is spectacular. Ron and Gail were just a call away and were helpful and attentive hosts. Will definitely be returning!
I was there with my 2 adult children and their spouses, including my 19 month old grandson. The house was perfect for us. Three separate sleeping spaces and baths gave all of us plenty of space and privacy. The house is beautiful and comfortable. We are accustomed to a view of the mountains, but the creek had a nice view and was close to the big water. The house is also close to town/grocery store. Great dock! We kayaked, rented a pontoon boat for 1 day, and swam off the dock. We thoroughly enjoyed the screened porch. The host was totally accessible and responsive the few questions that I had.
Our group takes an annual trip to the Dragon and we've always wanted to rent a house on the water, this place blew us away! Inside the rooms are spacious and well equipped, we appreciated the well stocked cookware when making meals for everyone. The twin porches were wonderful for enjoying the weather day or night, and the dock was a huge highlight. We spent hours swimming and kayaking, everyone had a great time and commented on what an awesome place to stay we booked. We will absolutely be coming here again!
Came hear with 7 adults and an infant. House fit us perfectly. House was clean and porches were perfect for lounging around. Dock was great as we could keep the boat at the house to ski every morning.
Beautiful home! The weather was not great so we didn’t get to enjoy the lake as much as hoped for, but the home was great, well-appointed and offered several spaces for socializing for kids to play and adults to hang out and visit for our birthday lake trip with children :)
At first the house seemed small. As we settled in and the family began to occupy the house, it became clear that there were many options to gather. The best place was the screened porch overlooking the lake. We ate meals on the porch and lounged on the couch/chairs watching the changes in the sky, water, and family laughing and splashing in the water off the dock. So, it wasn't small at all! It was great to have a variety of places to be alone, with a few people, or the whole gang! Owner was great to talk with as well.
It's a great house!
3rd year in a row renting this beautiful home for a nice relaxing family vacation. Great dock for swimming off of or docking your boat rental. Location is awesome. Robbinsville is very laid back so great place to get away from it all and just enjoy family. House has everything you need. Two bedrooms upstairs. One on the main floor and a bonus room downstairs that has a queen bed and bunkbeds. Lake Santeetlah is peaceful. Never too many boats or too busy. Will be back again next year!!
Enjoyed our stay. The house is nice and well equipped.
Loved the access to the dock and swimming. Owner was very nice and available if we needed anything.
This place is magical,so beautifully decorated.Everything you could want or need.Steps away from water.Great place for family to relax,swim,fish.Always very clean,parking is great.The host is awesome.
