About this house rental

Welcome to a home of 5,800 sq ft of pure luxurious comfort located in a prestigious gated community, secluded yet about 20 minutes from the quaint town of Andrews, NC. This is one of the largest and most magnificent homes on Lake Nantahala with breathtaking views from all over the house. These views are even more incredible while canoeing or just hanging out with family or friends right from the private floating dock.

Spend your days basking in the sun, swimming, canoeing, hiking, mountain biking, antiquing nearby, white water rafting, horseback riding or simply relaxing in the large hammock. The gourmet cook w/ love our large kitchen that includes top of the line stainless appliances, Jenn-Air grill, double oven, etc. After dinner relax by the fire, watch a movie on our 60" TV, stargaze from the upper deck or relax while the kiddos play air hockey downstairs.

For the boaters, we have a pontoon boat available upon request.

The property itself is beautiful and lived up to expectations based on the way it was advertised with a few exceptions. The cleanliness was lacking in a few areas and two of the showers did not drain properly from the very first day. The kitchen was only stocked with the very basic tools. We had to go out and buy a wine bottle opener. The hot tub that we were really looking forward to did not work and the owner knew this for a few weeks leading up to our stay but didn't let us know ahead of time, so we were disappointed. We rented the boat from the owner but he failed to tell us that when the engine is warm, the boat sometimes doesn't restart. Luckily we didn't get stranded anywhere at night and learned we had to keep the engine on at all times. Overall though, the property is beautiful and at a great location on the lake. We really enjoyed the fire pit area and being on the water every day in between all the rain that was coming up from the Texas area. We were able to escape the oppressing heat that the rest of the country was experiencing that week, in those beautiful mountains and the gorgeous lake.

First, let me say that this property has the most beautiful views and the home is lovely as well. For those considering staying here, you will not be disappointed in the home or the views. We rented a boat from the Lands End Marina for the week, so we were able to enjoy the water everyday for fishing and tubing. The kitchen has every appliance you'd hope to have from an awesome waffle iron to plenty of silverware. There were only a few things that were challenging: to get this view the driveway is really steep so consider that, along with a crack in the driveway from a prior earthquake event that prevents parking over that area. The area under that may need attention with additional support or dirt or added retaining wall as viewed from lower deck. The home is waterfront so that is a huge positive and a reason we rented here, but the access to the water really could use handrail support for the elderly and even moms holding babies etc. If you fall, you will roll a ways downhill. It didn't keep us from enjoying our time or walking down, it's just something to consider for safety. Bright harbor lights could be turned off when home is being rented, shine really bright in bedrooms.Owner was there on arrival, which for some renters they may have enjoyed that part as mentioned in other reviews, but it made us feel a bit awkward, as he stayed and chatted for over an hour. A list of what to look for or do at check out would have been fine. Overall lovely and recommend.

As other reviews have said, this is a gorgeous location on the lake. The views are incredible. The house is custom and beautifully constructed. The house is in overall good condition though it has a variety of minor deferred maintenance issues (missing paint, leaking faucets, etc). Todd was very responsive to questions and drove up from Atlanta to troubleshoot the boat that wasn't starting properly once the engine was hot. A few things to be aware of that were not on the listing: 1. There is a charge for the boat. 2. Cell coverage is terrible in the area. Verizon and AT&T both have minimal coverage at the house and none on the lake or on the roads in the area. T-Mobile has no coverage at all. 3. Wi-Fi connection is slow and they tell you to only use it minimally because they are limited to only a few GB per month. 4. The house is 30 minutes or more from the nearest towns with grocery stores (Franklin or Topton) or major highways. The house itself has a very steep paved driveway. Then there's a half mile of well maintained single lane gravel road, then about 15 miles of narrow windy paved mountain roads to get back to the highway. So, in short, if you're looking for a gorgeous home in a beautiful location with a great excuse to disconnect from the rest of the world, this place is perfect.

2 weeks and it still wasn’t enough! Todd and Dana were great hosts prior to and during our stay. This house is top notch, great location, amenities and spacious enough for a group of 11 including four kids under 13. The kids room was perfect for all of their late night shenanigans. We fished, cruised the lake, tubed, hiked to the waterfalls, went white water rafting and took a trip to Wayah Bald and took in spectacular views! Could not ask for more!

The house is located on the Nantahala Lake which is a sweet water lake. It was so nice to stay at this place and enjoy every minute without cell service thus no interruptions from the rest of the world. The quietness is so relaxing and the night sky full of stars - it was amazing to see what your eyes can only see. I do not know if it matters but when we stayed there there was NOT even one mosquito! Definitely hope to be back there some day. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy what this place has to offer.
