My mother and I along with our two dogs stayed three nights in this beautiful lake cabin. The kitchen has very nice cookware and dishes to use. The view of the lake was absolutely breathtaking, especially with the fall foliage. The neighborhood was very peaceful and we enjoyed our time very much. We visited the state park Oconee and did a short hike as well as went into town, called Walhalla and did some shopping and had great cheesesteaks.

This is a very sweet spot. We had a great time, even though it rained most of the time we were there. We had the opportunity to use the canoe a few times even with the rain, and we also enjoyed the fire pit one night. We would definitely book again!

One of our favorite stays. VERY quiet close to many small towns well worth exploring (Walhalla, Highlands, NC, Cashiers NC). Wish we had stayed longer. Communications with property manager were great, responses very prompt. Gave us great ideas for places we had not thought about for food shopping, etc. peaceful relaxing stay for our anniversary. Well stocked with everything needed. We brought perishables, of course, but also enjoyed local restaurants (recommend reaching out to property manager for her EXCELLENT suggestions)

We had an amazing stay in Mountain Rest. I lived in the community and worked on the river as a guide for 8 years. I am down here often, but wanted a nice place to put our family for a long weekend. This cabin was perfect! We swam in the lake, made s’mores by the fire, paddled the sup boards around and had some great conversation on the screened in porch. I would definitely recommend this cabin!

Perfect lake cabin! Exactly how it was described. So relaxing and accompanying. Love the cabin, the lake and the area. The host was very attentive and answered any questions quickly. The claw foot tub was a plus! Looking forward to a visit in the Fall!

Perfect fall getaway

Loved this cabin- was perfect for me and my family for a long weekend. My family loved all the water toys and spend most of our time on the lake. Our pups loved the property too. It is situated perfectly- far enough off grid to really get away but close enough to state parks and other amenities. Would definitely recommend and would like to visit again in the summer!
