We are glad to support the car and biker communities by giving a good value for the money and we have not raised our rates since we bought the cabin despite the ongoing improvements
This was a beautiful home with all the amenities anyone could ask for. Perfect location for many tourist activities and the Miata rally at Fontana Village.

Thank you for staying with us. We chose the home because of its location to so many activities. Hope you will stay with us in the future.
Though the rooms are a little small, the overall location and its proximity to Fontana Dam are excellent. The Cabin is at a height and the view from it is really nice.

About the host
Hosted by Al & Heidi London
We bought this property because we go to Robbinsville annually for an event called Minis on the Dragon. We decided we'd like to come more often and have our own a place to stay. We have been involved in various types of real estate for the last 30 years. We both retired and are back to work part-time so we don't go stir crazy. I was a school system Director of Auxiliary Services which included everything having to do with the "non-educational end" of running a school district. I also have a background in law enforcement. My wife is an RN. We call the Florida Panhandle home.
Why they chose this property
Once we decided to purchase a home in Graham County, we looked a many properties. This house kept coming to the top of our list because it was well taken care of, has good "bones" and gave us a homey, welcoming feeling when we first saw it. We are in process of changing a few things here and there to make it more in line with our ideas.
What makes this property unique
We really like the solitude and yet the home has the proximity to so much. Fontana Village Resort is only a short distance down the road, The Nantahala and NOC is close by, The Cherohala Skyway is less than 15 minutes away as is the Appalachian Trail. We really enjoy the firepit. Our neighbors are great and there is a real sense of community and sharing. In the several years we have been visitng Graham County, we have come to enjoy the area and the people.
