Our family felt right at home here. We loved the views of the mountains and lake. It is a very short walk to the lake although a steep hill coming back. The house is lovely and the best feature for us was all the gathering spaces inside and out. It was a perfect place for a peaceful family getaway. Host was kind and helpful.

Homebase for a Busy Week

This place feels a little like home away from home because we've stayed numerous times. This year was an especially busy year at Lake J, and this place was a perfect place to rest, gather one's thoughts and entertain friends. Alice is always a gracious host.

About the host

Hosted by Alice Mosteller

Host profile image
I have been involved in real estate sales for over 30 years. I recently decided to slow down and do some traveling.

Why they chose this property

When I found this property, I knew this could be something special. The location of the house is so convenient to everything and in a great neighborhood made it an easy decision. I remodeled most of the house adding comfort and coziness. I enjoy all the windows and large decks. I lived there for 30 years and decided to let you enjoy the house as much as I did!

What makes this property unique

You will find my house a great place to stay and convenient to all western North Carolina has to offer. Just across the street is the Junaluska golf course, and a short walk to the pool and canoeing and a walking trail around the Lake.
