This house was perfect for our family of 7. We had myself and my husband, 11 yo daughter and her friend, 20 yo son, 23 yo daughter and her bf. There was plenty of space and we didn’t feel crowded. We joked there needed to be an intercom system thru the house so we didn’t have to yell, LOL! The shuffleboard was a definite hit as was the hot tub. The beds were by far the most comfortable beds ever and so were the Columbia brand pillows were my favorite! The wifi was strong and my daughter’s bf ran his Xbox while we were there. I highly recommend staying here and would definitely stay again.

This place was great! You can tell the owners really care about their patrons. Everything was thought thru and they provide pretty much everything you need. There was a couple of small issues, but too small to really mention here. We did send the owners an email that some light bulbs were burned out and some other tiny issues, but nothing that would change my star rating. One of the most incredible views in NC!

Overall the home was clean and was what we expected from the listing. the neighborhood was very quiet and the view was great. Kitchen stocked well for chefs. Only negative was afternoon summer sun was hot and there was no shade on the porch / patio area. Porch / patio had a great view and was very enjoyable in morning and evening when sun was behind the trees or house.

We had a very nice stay at the Lookout Lodge. Everything was just as nice as it was described and looked like the photos. The lodge is very large and accommodated all 8 of us comfortably. We had a few minor issues in the beginning, but the property manager, Steve was very helpful and was quick to respond. We had a great time overall and made many happy memories with the kids!

We had the best trip to Bryson City and this cabin was perfect! Very convenient to downtown Bryson City, breweries and amazing hiking. The cabin itself was incredibly clean and the kitchen well stocked The sunset views were stunning which we enjoyed by the fire. We also enjoyed a snowy plunge in the hot tub and shuffleboard was a huge hit. We loved this cabin and will be back! Thanks for having us!

We rented the house for Our Son’s graduation trip. It was a perfect home with Mountain View’s. Our boys enjoyed fishing up the road from the house. It’s not within walking distance, but it’s just a short drive away. The house was very spacious and clean. I would personal recommend this home.

Great views. Quite getaway. Close to Bryson City
Property is located in gated community with surprisingly few homes. Beautiful views with great patio and deck to take advantage of the scenery.
House is large with plenty of space to spread out. Our party had 8 adults and the property never felt crowded
Kitchen was well stocked and even included a countertop ice maker.
3 good sized bedrooms. main floor bedroom has on suite bathroom.
1 small loft bedroom with moderate privacy
1 upstairs bathroom. Would have been nice to have one more bathroom with 8 adults, but we knew that before we arrived.
Added bonus was the yard. Bigger than described which was great for our 4-legged guest.
Hattub was large and clean.
Outside pictures of the house make it appear larger than it actually is. The west side of the house has a 3-car garage which is not accessible by guest.
The fireplace was being restored which took away from some of the luxury feeling., but not a huge deal.
No access to the water was the biggest reason for removing a star for accuracy of listing. Most lots are private and the only access we could find to water was the dock for boat access which has signs posted "no swimming, camera monitored"
I had the idea we could walk down to the water and swim, but that was not possible.
Overall, a beautiful property with great views and generous living space.

Absolutely perfect for a large group. Close enough for activities but far away to have complete peace and solitude. Large enough to spread out but great areas to come together.

This view from this house was incredible. The owners have really thought about what they offer their guests. I LOVED that I was able to take my dog on vacation with me. Overall a great experience in a clean and comfortable house. They only negatives I have is the REALLY CURVY road, which is kind of expected in the mountains and obviously no fault of the property owners, and that they only allow you to leave one bag of trash.

Very clean and inviting. Kitchen, grill, hot tub were all clean and ready to be used. Views were amazing. Entry road was a little narrow but nicely paved. I would recommend for families.

What a treat to not have to make beds after a long drive! Beds were ready with good quality sheets. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for cooking. Fluffy towels! Throw blankets! Comfy couch facing a gorgeous view! We managed to do stuff in the area, but we would have been perfectly happy just hanging out in the hot tub or around the fire pit. Wonderful!

This property is amazing and can easily fit 2 families(3 may be tight). The views are unreal and the property is very well stocked. The separate game room is amazing at night as it allows the kids to sleep and the adults to have some fun. The fire pit and jacuzzi make this place hard to beat.
