Magical Multigenerational Getaway!Our 9-night stay for 3 families (ages 2-72) at this 4,000 sq ft Whitewater Lake home was spectacular. Host Lucia was an absolute joy to communicate with, and the property was immaculately clean. She and her husband are clearly striving for awesome, and it shows!The Home: The split-level layout with 2 kitchens and 2 living areas made managing a large group seamless. We loved the newly redone upper kitchen, remote-controlled ceiling fans, custom pocket doors, and the unique, rustic farm door to the master bedroom.The Lake & Dock: Hands down the best dock access on the lake! There are 42 massive, beautiful stone steps leading down (great exercise and exceptionally well-lit at night). The brand-new dock features incredible "LakeEze" stairs for effortless water entry. The fleet of water toys—kayaks, paddleboards, tandem kayak, and pedal boat—is exceptional.Outdoor Fun: The hosts thought of everything. Our grandson caught 3 large catfish using the provided gear and bait (and we have a great "fish story" about a massive one snapping the line!). We loved the cornhole boards, board games, new propane grills, and the fire pit stocked with firewood for nightly s'mores.The Highlight: Watching the 4th of July fireworks right from the water in the pedal boat and kayak under a clear, starry sky. Surrounded by nature, it was a magical evening that far outshone the Cashiers, NC fireworks. An unforgettable experience!

It was an absolute joy to be able to host you and your family and have you share such wonderful experiences with us. We hope you and your family will join us again soon!
We had a wonderful time in this spacious house. The grounds are beautiful and the lake was refreshing. There was lots of room for our family, 10 people in total. We especially enjoyed the extra touches from the host like the kitchen having coffee, filters, spices, paper towels etc. The bathrooms were also stocked and linens were included. This house deserves a 5 star rating!

About the host
Hosted by Lucia Scott Derks
I am originally from Columbia, South Carolina, and I have been escaping to upstate lakes and mountains my entire life. I strive to provide the kind of tranquility mixed with activity that I would personally want on my vacation. This home with serene lake views, a fully stocked kitchen, and large bedrooms with mostly king sized beds provide all of the relaxation needed. The provided kayaks, paddleboards, fishing rods, and noodles help with the sense of adventure, all without leaving the property.
Why they chose this property
Private lake fully stocked with crappie, small mouth bass, blue gill, and catfish. The lake itself is so serene, and it's uncommon to see more than one boat on the lake at any given time.
What makes this property unique
This house is so spacious and relaxing. It really provides the sense of calm we can all achieve by feeling like we can be together with our loved ones, but not too crammed together.
