My family and I enjoyed thanksgiving in this beautiful home. The weather was colder than we had wanted but that didn't stop us. The kids enjoyed basketball outside, cornhole and ping pong downstairs. While the adults enjoyed the upstairs, great food, unexpectedly good football and family. Thank you for the great family memories!!

This property had everything we needed plus more! We really enjoyed the fire pit by the lake. The lake cove was quiet and serene. The house was very clean and the bathrooms and kitchen were stocked with soap, towels, shampoo, pots, pans, and all manner of dishes and utensils. The WiFi was great and the TV’s were all up to date. Our group of 9 loved the vibe!

Great house on Lake James!

House was great! Lots of room, nice screened in porch room and large kitchen! We brought our boat and docked right at the house! The hosts were incredibly nice and answered right away with any questions that we had! We had to leave a day early because our grandkids came down with fevers and they refunded our last night. Didn’t need to, but they did! Super nice!!

Beautiful home for a family vacation!

Very comfortable home, we had a wonderful stay! Matt & Bhavana were very responsive and helpful. We booked a boat for a few days and it's a great spot for enjoying the lake. The walk to the dock is steep, but WAY easier than many of the other homes we saw. The view is lovely and the property felt very private. We took day trips to the Biltmore and a few hiking spots, and had some meals in Marion and Morganton; while feeling quite remote, it's not too far away from anything you might need! We also cooked a lot, and the kitchen was roomy enough for three of us to cook/prep and the others to sit around the island chatting. Definitely would book again!

Family Fun

Fantastic home! Loved the layout, kitchen, bedrooms. We ate breakfast every day on the screened in porch. Walked down to the lake for a float or swim or paddle board. The teens loved jumping off the dock at the house and s’mores at night by the fire pit. Loved fishing off the dock. The beds were really comfortable!

Quick visit

Matt was so great at accommodating our big group for a family funeral. We needed a really short stay and an unusual start time and he went the extra mile to make it happen. We were so grateful to have been able to stay together at such a hard time for our family. And the property is gorgeous!!!!

Beautiful home on lake cove

This home was perfect for our vacation , with plenty of space for each family unit. We enjoyed card games on the screened porch in the evenings. The house is pristine clean, has a spacious well stocked kitchen, and the beds all comfortable. The firepit is a cozy spot to gather and look out over the lake. We look forward to returning!

Lovely Lake House

The driveway was scary. Ground keeper came and blew leaves off which helped. Having 3 ovens was awesome for preparing Thanksgiving dinner. Of course, 2 refrigerators were also much appreciated. Fire ban was lifted so we enjoyed pit fires in the evenings.

5 bedroom lake house that delivers.

Fully equipped does not begin to describe how well this owner has furnished their home for your fun and enjoyment. Fabulous kitchen, comfortable rooms, huge screened in porch, ping pong, cornball, 3 paddleboards/kayak, fire pit/chairs/firewood, dock situated in quiet finger of lake. If they would provide lots of bathroom hooks to hang towels/bathing suits/wet clothes I would deem it perfect.

Bar has been set!

This was our 7th year of vacationing in the Mountains and we have finally found our spot. The property offered everything we needed and more. The upgrades the owners have done from the original post are awesome. Love having two kitchens, the covered screened in porch and the lower level for corn hole. The location is very easy and convenient for site seeing. The number 1 advantage was having a open golf course within a half mile. Can’t wait to go back.

Wedding trip

This rental was most convenient to my Granddaughters wedding at the Grooms fathers lake house about a half mile away. We cans early and stayed an extra day having enjoyed the property so much. The ony criticism was the lack of clothes hangers. There were only two, but my daughter from Fort Mill, SC brought a bunch when they arrived to stay with us. We only needed the upstairs for the whole stay. The water was great and the weather cooperated for the outdoor wedding Saturday at 4PM the 13th. May come back next year for a longer stay.
