About this property

Our lakefront mountain home is the perfect family vacation destination or for a weekend getaway with friends. Ideally situated on almost two acres of gently sloping land on Lake Glenville near the mountain resort villages of Cashiers and Highlands. Surrounded by the Smoky Mountains, Lake Glenville’s 26-mile shoreline meanders past forests, pastures, waterfalls and world-class golf courses. Warm days and cool nights are almost assured on this high-elevation mountain lake.

The Lakehouse’s 200+ feet of shoreline, provides ample space to enjoy swimming, use of our private boat dock (equipped with canoe and 4 kayaks) or relaxing on the sun terrace overlooking the lake.

The use of native materials and local craftsmanship throughout the 4,700 sq. ft. lake house makes it a true luxurious mountain lodge. Features include spectacular lake views, wrap-around porches with rocking chairs and outdoor grill, generous sitting and dining areas, quiet reading nooks, two massive stone fireplaces, antique heart-pine floors and a soaring, beamed ceiling in the main salon. Furnishings are a comfortable blend of antiques, rustic and overstuffed pieces. Modern conveniences include a fully equipped gourmet kitchen with granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances, king-sized beds, oversized tubs, fully equipped laundry room, DVD collection, gigabit speed wireless Internet access and unlimited nationwide long distance.

Family gathering for our 50th Anniversary

The home was perfect for our group. Our 2 sons, their wives and 2 children each. Five bedrooms, 5 king sized beds. Everyone had their space and privacy and comfort. The kitchen was better equipped than our kitchen at home. The lake frontage was perfect. Our rented pontoon boat fit perfectly. The fire pit lake side was great. The home is only a few windy miles from Cashiers and Highlands. This vacation will create lifelong memories for us and our family. Thank you for sharing this special place.

Heavenly Home on Lake Glenville

Every single aspect of this beautiful home and peaceful property was outstanding! The home itself was wonderful - so comfortable and immaculate! One of the cleanest VRBO homes we've been in. The owners' attention to all details and accommodations were really well thought out and helped to provide an amazing experience. Loved all the unique furniture, along with the coziness of the rooms & fireplaces. The home perfectly provided comfort & privacy along with wonderful common areas. The view was spectacular! Loved that it was an easy walk down to the shore & dock. Enjoyed sitting lakeside with the firepit roaring. Exceptional home, accommodations, view and communications. Highly recommend this amazing home - there is no way you can be disappointed with any aspect of it.

Perfect Girls Weekend

What you see is what you get with this listing--in all the best ways. It was very clean, well stocked and perfect for a large group. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. There was plenty of seating for our large group in the den and at the dining room table. We can't wait to return!

What a Treasure

We loved our time at this amazing home. We celebrated Christmas here with our kids. The first surprise was there was a Christmas tree for us to put our gifts under! There was plenty of room for everyone to be together and to spend the time alone. Everyone had a kingsize bed too! There was plenty of firewood to enjoy as many fires in the fireplace that we wanted. The kitchen was big and well stocked too! And we loved the round dining table. The property is very relaxing and great for families of all ages. We enjoyed hiking on the nearby trails and even had a little dusting of snow on our last day there. We can’t wait to go back!

SECOND year at Katie Camp...

Our family LOVES Katie Camp! This is our second year and it's clean, great for entertaining our large family and has beautiful views of the lake. We love sitting on the back porch in the morning with coffee and nighttime with wine. Susan is wonderful to communicate with and such a great host. We will hopefully be back for a third year!

Perfect Lake Getaway

From the moment we stepped into this absolutely beautiful lake house we felt at home. Enough room to fit our family more than comfortably. Fun nights spent around the large family dining room table playing games and laughing. Relaxing on the porch with a hot cup of coffee watching the sun rise in the morning. Our week spent here could not have been more perfect.

Family getaway

Despite the unseasonably cold weather we had a great time. Plenty of firewood to make campfires and stay warm. Fishing poles were great as well as the kayaks and canoes. We played games and watch soccer so everyone was happy!

Our Fall Break tradition scores again!

We love this house - this was our fifth time to stay there over Fall Break! The house and grounds are always so well kept and the kitchen is amazingly equipped - as is the whole house. It's like staying at home, but ... we're with kids and grands in a beautiful selling.

Loved Katie Camp

Loved our stay at Katie Camp. The early fall weather turned out to be perfect for hiking and kayaking. Kitchen was well appointed for cooking a big dinner. Everyone has already noted wi-fi and phone limitations, but that did not deter us in the least. TV worked fine for fall football watching. We loved our stay and our group had plenty of room to spread out.

AMAZING!

Our family of 8 stayed here and it was beautiful! Each of us got our own king bed (5 bedrooms). We used the kayaks, swam off the dock and rented a boat.. it was perfect. The only thing to be aware of is that there is no reception in that area and the wifi is not great. Some of us had to go into Cashiers (20 mins away) to do work. Other than that, we absolutely loved our stay here and hope to be back as soon as we can!

Great week at Katie Camp

We had a great family reunion at Katie Camp. House was so nice in ways we did not expect. The big round table was great for conversation during meals. Large kitchen and very large island table accommodated food prep and serving. We had up to 10 in rocking chairs on the porch enjoying the view, reading books and sharing conversation. There are 4 kayaks and 1 canoe so all can participate in water adventures. In hindsight we would put the early risers in the bedroom below the kitchen. Internet is barely usable by a large group, but we staged our usage and got by. The cool mountain air and nice accommodations left us refreshed.

Very Nice Clean Property, Excellent Porch

Great stay! The porches are amazing. The house seemed brand new, even though it was over 20 years old. The construction is impeccable. No mold or mildew smells. Even floors. They looked amazing too and are perfectly level. Probably the cleanest house I’ve rented. Just a perfect build and well maintained. It is a bit remote and the wifi and cell service is nearly nonexistent. The dock is a bit sketchy because the water level was low for August, so the walkway was tilted about 30 degrees which was hard for my father. I have a 25’ inboard boat and it was workable but if the water was any lower I wouldn’t have been able to park there (1’ of clearance from prop to lake bottom) It’s a bit tight to get into and out of because the neighbors dock juts out and is very stressful. I’d imagine it wouldn’t be doable off-season. If they could extend the dock out that would be perfect but it probably works out for most and would be a non issue for a pontoon and most outboards. Also the air conditioning didn’t work great, especially the bottom floor. The walk to the dock is gentle, but it’s a mix of dirt, uneven stones, mulch and grass, so that was more challenging than expected. Overall it was worth the price for the build quality, the covered porch with water views, and the cleanliness. I’d stay again.

Annual family vacation

We are Katie Camp fans! Three generations (all adult) of our family just completed a week at Lake Glenville. Our second year at Katie Camp. There is lots of room for parking and the dining room table is fabulour! The house is such so perfect – the layout is wonderful, each bedroom has a King bed (very comfortable), well-appointed kitchen, lake facing porches loaded with rocking chairs, and charming furnishings. The water toys provided are great. We used the kayaks all week. There is a massive basket of beach towels right by the lake side door. Dock is wonderful for sitting, docking boat and wave runner and tying up kayaks and paddleboards. Our younger generation had a wonderful bonfire in the firepit one night and loved their evening by the fire and by the lake. We have only one complaint – our July week in 2023 is already booked – we are so sad!!
