We fell in love with the cabin, it’s history, the porch and the ease of it all. We rented kayaks from the nearby dock to paddle in the clean water of Santeetlah. We hiked around Joyce Kilmer. We bought local produce from a market that’s just a few miles away and strung beans on the porch for dinner with the most beautiful view and cool breezes. We played Yahtzee on the dock as the sun went down. We slept like babies, read, had long coffees in the mornings and talked. This isn’t a fancy place but a homey one tucked in a cove perfect for swimming and floating on a hot summer day with easy, shallow access to the water. There’s just tons of heart in this place. The owner is just lovely and was always ready to answer any questions. She told me her Grandfather built the place and that endeared to us it even more. It’s an original to this wonderful lake. Don’t let it pass you by, there’s great memories to be made here... Robbinsville is just a few miles away with an Ingles for anything you forget! This is the kind of place to take a break from everything to see how simplicity can recalibrate..,
