Notes: There are two decks or balconies with great views of the lake, mountains and tall swaying pines. The walk from the house down to the lake is short, but you would need to be able to descend down the steps and walk on a short, rustic woodland path. If you decide to go down for a night swim or star-gazing, you would want a flashlight.

Further details for this vacation house rental in Lake Nantahala, North Carolina

Peace at the House: This is a perfect romantic get-a-way. Wake in the morning to the sun coming over the mountains shining across the lake. In fall, reds and yellows against the dark green on the mountainsides or right outside the window engulf you with the wonder of fall. In summer, be engulfed by Appalachian lushness. Sometimes the Smokey Mountain mist creates shining wonders before your eyes. Cook your favorite gourmet meals in our kitchen in full view of the lake. Basking in the dappled sun on the deck is always wonderful. At night, build a fire and sink into comfort with a glass of wine or your favorite tea while moonlight plays on the mountains across the lake. Try some candlelight while soaking in our double-sized oval tub. Or simply sink into the private spa on the lower deck and watch the stars. Take a swim in the clear waters below. Use our canoe or two kayaks or launch your own boat nearby and tie up at our dock. Spend evenings on the dock, gazing at the stars.

Activities Close at Hand: Stroll down our scenic, peaceful neighborhood lane, take a loop hike through the woods on primitive roads or take the nearby hikes on the Appalachian Trail to Wayha, Wesser or Siler Balds. Watch the birds, try your luck in the nearby award-winning trout stream or right off the dock, explore one of the many bike routes or visit the famous Nantahala Outdoor Center for rafting, kayaking, biking and delicious food. Challenge the kids to air hockey, pool or ping pong or try one of the many family games. Or canoe around the bend to find a secluded secret waterfall at the end of a challenging rustic trail.

Day Trips: Smokey Mountain National Park invites you just an hour away, or you can visit the famous Biltmore House in Asheville. Take a scenic ride on the historic railway or try panning for gems. Do you like music? Viist Dolly Parton's village or attend free Friday night concerts at John Campbell Folk School and local bluegrass jammers nearby. On the other hand, just sitting on the deck in the tree tops gazing at the lake might be just the peace and solitude you need.

Billy & Kimberly Green Canton, North Carolina
Review Submitted: July 19, 2007 Date of Stay: July 2007
We spent a week of our daughter's spring break in this house. We have been going to Lake Nantahala since we were both children (at least 25 years). This house is wonderful. It is neat, clean, up-to-date and has a wonderful open floor plan with many, many fantastic amenities. We took our own boat and could tie it up at the private dock. It was one of the best vacations we have had in a while and this house truly contributed to that. We are certain to stay again many, many more times in the future - we plan to every year now. Thanks Marilyn for sharing your awesome lake house with us.

Halloween Weekend on Lake Nantahalla

wcmarcos Charleston, SC
Review Submitted: November 10, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
My wife and two friends and I stayed here over the Halloween weekend, 2009, and it was fabulous. It was unfortunate that the weather wasn't the best the entire three nights we spent there, but the house amenities made up for that. We did get a chance to take the canoe out on a warm, sunny Saturday, and we used the owner's notes to guide us around to see the various streams and watefalls. This is a great place for a group, or even better for a romantic getaway for two since it is right on the lake, and the views cannot be beat! I would definitiely return to this home in the future.

perfect for our family

Review Submitted: October 4, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
This was the perfect house for our family. It was clean, well maintained and the ideal setup for grandparents, parents and two kids. We all enjoyed the view; the area was beautiful. We all also enjoyed taking the canoe and kayaks out onto the lake - especially since it was a short walk out the back door. We would definitely recommend this property!
