House is located near HOA common area entrance to the lake, may experience HOA members parking adjacent to house parking area (very few people use this area). Starlink is our Internet provider. Small jet ski and small boat trailers welcome, large trailer parking not permitted, AWD or 4WD required year-round, personal boats can be brought, but boat must be launched at public boat ramp and trailer stored at one of the local marinas. Mooring equipment would need to be supplied by customer. (Owners can assist with directions and how to for bringing a boat).

Guest access



Guests have access to entire house and trails off to the left side near fire pit. Guests are allowed to use the stairs to access the water, however no guest is allowed on anyone's boat except your own. No littering or shooting firearms of any kind anywhere within the HOA and National Forest. This will result in a heavy fine and is in place for everyone’s safety. If you want to target practice, Panther Top has a public range with pay what you can money box and is open most days all day.



Other things to note



You MUST have a 4WD or AWD to access. We recommend you stop and get groceries before arriving to the cabin. Tammy's Ice Cream and General store just 10 minutes away. They serve literally the world's largest ice cream scoops; it is recommended to only get the small :). Also at same location is a country store with gas, selling a mix of items, from fishing equipment, laundry detergent, kitchen supplies, some food, etc. They also serve great counry food daily. Ingles is in Murphy and Blue Ridge depending on route. There are bugs in the woods and may get in the house if doors are left open. Be sure to have mosquitos spray or long clothing at night. Please don’t use canoes without signing waiver.
