Photos and Description of the Brevard vacation house rental
3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Den, Sleeps 8

Round Mountain Lodge, a charming mountain home perched above Lake Jocassee on the edge of Gorges State Park, provides an amazing retreat from life's hectic pace. It is only 2 miles from 'The Wilds Camp and Conference Center' and Georges State Park, Frozen Creek access.

Set on the south side of Round Mountain between the quaint mountain towns of Brevard (17 miles) and Lake Toxaway, Round Mountain Lodge is not simply a house in the mountains, but a ''mountain home.''

The main living area boasts a cathedral ceiling and mountain views from a bank of south-facing windows. The fireplace, dressed in floral tapestry, dominates the living area. Warm wood graces interior walls. The downstairs bedroom holds a king sized bed; another large upstairs room boasts a comfy queen. All bedrooms have down comforters. The Bunk Room holds two sets of bunk beds, making Round Mountain Lodge the ideal lodging choice for two families who wish to vacation together.

The den, home to twin trundle beds, contains family games, puzzles and media equipment. Children can watch a DVD or satellite TV while adults share conversation in the quiet of the living area. Peruse the books in the ''Loft Library'' or venture onto the rock outcropping below the porch to pick blackberries.

Watch the fog roll up the mountains from the porch swing. Discover one of six waterfalls within walking distance to the Lodge. All ingredients for the perfect mountain retreat are found amidst the tranquility and mountain splendor of the Blue Ridge Escarpment.

One of only 40 homes on the 1200 acres on Round Mountain, the Lodge boasts spacious rooms, comfortable and ample furnishings, and amenities that define it as a home rather than a ''rental unit''. This beautifully decorated home is amply supplied with accoutrements for the perfect mountain get-away. In any season, Round Mountain Lodge will call you back again and again.

Round Mountain Lodge

Round Mountain Lodge exceeded every expectation for our vacation in the mountains! The location was the perfect place for peaceful seclusion and visual beauty both inside and outside of the home. The owners provide everything you can hope for and more to make you feel at home and comfortable. The amazing scenery of nature and mountains from the upper deck made one feel that they were an actual part of a serene picture - standing still in time while the sites imprinted in your memory. Beautiful waterfalls are abundant and in close proximity to this home, so a daily outing to explore and hike the mountains and seek out the waterfalls was a real plus! The owners provided a plethora of information and reading materials on things to see and do in the area. They covered everything from A-Z in their handy Lodge Information Guide. And, when the time came to depart, it was difficult to leave behind all that we so enjoyed while there! The owners are friendly and made every effort to help make this a wonderful time for us! We definitely loved this lodge and hope to return there again!

THE Mountain Getaway for All Ages

What an absolutely wonderful home to spend a week in! Not only is the location just breathtaking, the house is truly a home away from home that is equipped with everything you could imagine needing! Our vacation at various times included adults and children from 10yrs to 82yrs.There was never a lack of anything for any of us to do! An added bonus for us was a trip to The Wilds as guests for a couple of hours where I got to ride the Big Swing with our grandson! Whoohoo! On another day, we went to downtown Brevard for a few hours where we walked around and then enjoyed a delicious meal at The Square Root restaurant. We also rode to the beautiful Looking Glass Falls since our physical limitations prohibited some of us from visiting the falls within walking distance of the house on this trip.(Maybe next time!) We also enjoyed the Sunday morning service at Old Toxaway Baptist Church which is very near. The cool weather during the week made it possible for us to use the wonderful fireplace which was such a blessing; and on other days the milder temps allowed the windows to be opened to usher in the refreshing mountain air! It was all great! We concur with the reviews of others who have spent time at Round Mountain Lodge and found it everything the listing describes and more, and we highly recommend it!

Great home in the mountains for families

  • Submitted: Jul 4, 2012

This was a great location for a recent mountain get-away. The home is comfortable and was perfect for people with children. The screened in porch was by far our favorite place to spend time. The view is terrific and the temperature was so pleasant. There were also games and toys downstairs along with foos ball and air hockey that the children loved.
The house is very close to two waterfall hikes that are breathtaking. The owners have put together a great information binder filled with hikes and information about Brevard. When we had a question, the owner immediately returned my phone call. There are plenty of cooking utensils so no need to worry about bringing anything with you except food, of course.
The directions to the house were perfect and everything was in great shape when we arrived. It is clear this is a home that is loved and used regularly and does not feel like a museum which made it very comfortable for our group of 4 adults and 2 children.

We stayed at Round Mountain Lodge for 3 nights this past week and it was a great place to get away from everything. The view is great and the house was always cool, the whole house fan works great!! Ashville is a quick trip NW. We enjoyed our time there and the owners are very accommodating.

I can't say enough nice things about this property. Everything was perfect. We had 4 adults and 3 children (ages 7, 5) at the house. The house was very child-friendly. The view from the living area/upstairs porch was fabulous. The furniture was clean and comfortable. The yard (with tire swing) was a big hit with our kids. We took a hike to Rainbow Falls, which was appropriate for our kids, with a little help (though it wouldn't be good for younger ones) and definitely worth the effort! Directions to the property and check in/check out instructions were very clear. You can not go wrong by choosing this property.

What a great week we had at Round Mtn Lodge. It is everything the listing says and then some. Just read the other reviews and you will see that this is a great vacation rental. The only potential drawback is the distance / time it takes to get back to Brevard for groceries so plan on picking them up while you are in the Brevard area. The leaf color was peaking during our stay and the photo ops in the area are endless. I did not make it up to the top of the mountain until the last day. The view was amazing. Try and do it early am so that the light is more favorable. Plenty to keep everyone happy here from the kids to the adults. We normally rent in a different mountain location every fall, but this is one high on the list for a return, especially since my sister's family was able to join us for the first part . Rock Creek Falls is a very pretty falls that you can hike to on the propery. I was able to view the falls after some heavy rains and it was spectacluar.

Owner's Response: It's great to hear that our guest enjoy Round Mountain Lodge and the views as much as we do. Great point about stocking up on food in Brevard on the way to our mountain home. We highly recommend the Ingles store (has everything, even a Starbucks). If you are looking for a gourmet shop then Poppy's is it and is just a few blocks from Ingles. There is also a Food Lion and a "SaveMore" on the way.

Perfect Mountain House

We enjoyed our stay at Round Mountain Lodge very much! With two older children, ages 17 & 20, we found plenty to do to make our weekend extra special. The kids enjoyed the foosball and air hockey games downstairs, while my husband and I enjoyed the view from the porch. Everyone had a relaxing time reading on the porch, sitting on the lovely swing. Evenings were spent playing cards at the neat pull-down table on the porch and later enjoying s'mores by the firepit. We also ventured out for several hikes and saw some amazing waterfalls. Our golden retriever had a ball swimming in the pond down the road.

The cabin has everything you need to enjoy your stay-from the well-stocked kitchen, to plenty of great books, to puzzles and games galore! The beds were comfortable and the cool evening breezes were delightful for sleeping! Our only regret was that we could stay only for a weekend!

What a wonderful house! We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our week long vacation. The three kids loved the bunk room, the tire swing and the games in the basement. The kitchen is stocked with any piece of cooking equipment you could ask for. There is nothing better than sitting on the deck in the morning drinking your coffee and looking at the mountains. Great location, too. A short drive to both Brevard and Cashiers. Wonderful memories!

Owner's Response: We are always very happy to hear about how much our guests enjoy their stay at Round Mountain Lodge. This really is a "home away from home" and has the thoughtful touches to make your stay memorable in many great ways. Drinking coffee in the morning with the mountain view from the screened porch is an experience not to be missed!
