Nice lake cove location. Plenty of room for families. If you bring your own boat, good place to dock. If you have a second boat, which we did, not an ideal situation with the owners boat on a lift.

Comfortable & Cozy for a lake weekend

Our family really enjoyed staying here. There was plenty of space for all of us and had everything you'd want in a lake front home - Views, easy access down to the water/dock, plenty of areas to gather. The dishwasher is quite finicky, but we were able to figure it out. Would certainly stay here again!

Beautiful house with easy access to the dock/lake. Very chill and quiet neighborhood. Great swimming for the whole family right off the dock in the cove as well as excellent fishing; Bluegill, Rock Bass, Small Mouth Bass and Catfish!The house worked great as a central hub for surrounding activities such as the Biltmore Estate, Carowinds Park, Pisgah National Forest as well as some great local shopping and restaurants within a 15 minute drive.

Perfect Family Vacation

The location of this lake home is ideal on a quiet cove for swimming. The surrounding trees give you privacy from neighbors. You can’t even see them. The older kids enjoyed jumping off the upper dock into the cove. Recommend picking up toys and floats for kids. We found inexpensive ones at Walmart.many grocery stores and other shopping is just 15-20 minutes in Marion. We boated Monday to Friday and practically had the lake to ourselves. The only slight downside is the 2 lake restaurants are closed weekdays. Our boat picnics were very fun.

Lovely lake house

Clean lovely house on the lake. Our family stayed for to attend a family wedding in the area. Due to the recent flooding, the lake was not as accessible as we had hoped. But, the stay was still wonderful and the area beautiful. We had a great stay in Nebo. Thank you, Steve Ness

Family Time = Happy Time!

This was a wonderful location for a family gathering. The house was comfortable and inviting, and we enjoyed the board games and books provided. We rented a boat for the week, so we spent a lot of time on the water enjoying the magnificent views. Lake James is not crowded so it was a very relaxing time together. We would highly recommend this location and this home.

Lake James Perfection

A lovely stay and very private! This home is well stocked and well situated on the lake, which btw is one of the cleanest in NC. Yes, you hear jet skis but they're on the bigger, wider channels. They aren't obnoxious on this home's deck like on some lakes. A nice indoor setup so that kids can be downstairs for their stuff and we adults can be upstairs.

Family Thanksgiving Celebration

Our family members traveled from around the eastern US to celebrate Thanksgiving together. Our youngest was 9 months and our oldest was 90 years. The house was perfect for all of us!! We loved the decks, the indoor and outdoor fireplaces, the grill, the view, the location and the accommodations. Karen, the manager, could not have been more helpful and responsive. Great stay for all of us!💕

Family Labor Day stay

This house was perfect for our family goodbye to summer stay! It was good for multiple generations. The cove was perfect for floating and having our boat. Internet and connections a little spotty in places but that was in the descriptions so no surprises. We love our stay and hope to rebook in the future. Karen, the host, was very quick to respond to our questions. Love it!!

Beautiful Property

Beautiful Lake front property as listed. Plenty of room for 10 adults and then some (2 queen masters, 2 kings with shared RR, and 2 rooms with 2 twins each). Parking was not an issue for as many cars as needed. Easy boating experience on the “nice” side of the lake with quick access to local marina. Highly recommend for large parties.

Excellent stay

Stayed over Memorial Day weekend with friends and family. We had awful weather but still had an excellent stay at the property. The house includes a large living/kitchen area and a nice basement area for the kids to play; both of which were essential with all the rain over the weekend. Covered porch and outdoor fireplace was great to accommodate rainy conditions as well. A huge benefit was the easy walk down to the lake which is rare in this neighborhood! Management was helpful and responsive throughout the process. Overall great stay!

Awesome house and lake.

House was perfect for 2 families—amenities and space were incredible. Dock and water access was perfect for taking boat out for water sports and swimming. Great time—highly recommend! My only gripe was it cost me $75 to store boat trailer for 3 days offsite due to HOA rules but then I see many trailers in the community.
