Enjoy this beautiful, spacious 4BR/3BA lakefront home in magnificent Highlands. Superbly located directly on Lake Sequoyah near the dam, it's less than 2 miles from downtown Main Street. Ideal for groups of adults and families with kids, there’s never a shortage of things to do.
With windows along the entire back of the house, you’ll have a magnificent view of the lake from every vantage point. Enjoy your morning coffee from the spacious upper deck while watching the steam rise off the lake. At sunset enjoy your favorite appetizer and beverage while lounging on the comfortable outdoor couches. After dark, take in the spectacular stars that are breathtaking at 4100 feet.
The unique main floor is one large great room with distinct gathering areas. The large bar is perfect for casual dining, playing games, working on jigsaw puzzles or arts & crafts projects. For more formal dinners, you’ll enjoy the view of the lake from the dining room table. With multiple reading and relaxing areas, a cozy lounging area in front of the wood burning fireplace and a large sectional couch for viewing the flat screen TV with cable, Roku, and DVDs, everyone can be together in one room while doing their own thing!
The kitchen is well appointed and has a bar area for friends and family to hang out and keep the cook company. Eat inside or outside at the two dining tables that seat up to fourteen. A gas grill is provided for the grill master in your party.
The Main Floor has two bedrooms. The Master has a king bed, private bath, Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. The second bedroom or “Blue Room” has a king bed with a beautiful view over-looking the lake, with a separate bath with tub/shower.
Enjoy a game of ping pong or play games and cards at the gaming table in the lower level entertainment and game center. Relax and read a book from the large library of popular books or gather around the large flat screen TV for movies or games on the PS4 game console. This floor has two bedrooms, a bathroom with walk-in shower and a full laundry room. The kids can hang out and sleep together in this colorful bedroom that has 2 sets of twins over full bunk beds. The second bedroom has a beautiful lakeside view with a king bed.
Explore tranquil Lake Sequoyah in the 5 kayaks, canoe and/or paddle board from the private dock. Or take a swim! It’s an amazing experience to take in this spectacular setting. Bring your own fishing gear to catch bass, bream, trout, or nothing except a relaxing time on the water.
Waterfalls like Bridal Veil and Dry Falls, hiking trails, shopping, restaurants and downtown Highlands are within minutes from the house. You couldn’t ask for anything more!
At 4100 feet, Highlands is a magical place at any time of year. When the summer heats up, Highlands is an average 78 degrees and it’s the best place to come and cool off. In the fall the leaves are spectacular and in winter it’s majestic. Come stay and experience it for yourself!

Plenty of room for us. We had fun

This was the perfect house for our large family Thanksgiving get together! We had 4 houses total for our 51 person group and this house was by far the best. Plenty of space!! Great entertaining space! Adults enjoyed the extra large main floor living room and kids loved the downstairs ping pong etc. Great kitchen and well stocked. In fact everything was well stocked. Never wanted for anything! Didn’t get to enjoy the kayaks etc but did try a little fishing off the dock. Beautiful location!! Thx for the hospitality!!
4.0
Our group of six arrived to find the Lodge to be spotlessly clean, located in a quiet and tranquil setting and roomy enough to allow us all some space to relax.
Our only disappointments: the hot water side in the kitchen sink did not work. The mattresses in the two smaller bedrooms were old and not firm enough to sleep comfortably. The original VRBO listing indicated there was a pool available but there was none on site and no information as to where one might be located
5.0
Excellent for families. Close proximity to restaurants, town, hiking, etc. The home was better than presented, larger and so nicely equipped with everything needed. All small boat ramp right next to the deck was awesome. Easy to load kayaks, canoes and paddleboards. There were several kayaks, a paddleboard and canoe, plue all the life jackets needed. The kids had a ball on the water and we could watch right from the deck and patio. Loved it.
5.0
the views are spectacular! House is clean but not updated. It was comfortable and enjoyable. Great game room downstairs. Terrific equipment to take out on the water. Having to dispose of your trash is biggest issue. If I am paying cleaning fees, I should not have to worry about the garbage (yes, I realize there are bears - still, having to get rid of garbage is a pain). Being charged $50 on top of the cleaning fee to get rid of garbage is insulting.

Plenty of amenities. We had a wonderful stay and would love to rent here again when we visit the Highlands in the future.

Lovely home, setting on the water. Very short driveway that is on a very busy road.

We loved being on the lake and enjoying the kayaking and paddle boarding. The house was so spacious, clean, and comfortable. You can tell the owners care very much about their home.
5.0
We rented the lake house for relaxation with a few hikes thrown in. Relax we did….evening on the deck watching the sunset was truly magical! We loved every minute there.
Only one thing, the master shower head was old which could easily be replaced. That’s it!
Lovely home with a great ambience and view, great hikes and restaurants near by! Don’t miss the one it’s a gem!
5.0
This property was perfect for our three generations of adults. Tons to do, beautiful views and plenty of space to spread out. Everyone loved the kayaks and we caught several large mouth bass... One 4 pounder!
Often a house sleeps plenty of people but does not really fit them for relaxing and eating. This house had lots of space for everything. Thoughtful amenities in the kitchen and bathrooms, plus great labels and instructions for everything; no searching for light switches or struggling with TV's.
I would definitively stay again and for longer.

The owners had a book to log in your stay and let them know how you liked your stay/home.....they also had written in the log a little bit about themselves, which made it nice getting to know who they are. It was a nice touch and made you feel at “home”. We really enjoyed our stay on Lake Sequoyah!!

Already booked for warmer weather!
The house is as beautiful as the listing suggested! The view was absolutely amazing and the home is a short five minute drive to town. Unfortunately we cut our trip short due to a forecasted winter storm. Had the downstairs fireplace been operational, we may have stuck it out, but we were afraid we wouldn’t be able to heat the huge top floor with the fireplace alone. The only thing people need to be aware of is the proximity to the main road. the driveway is short and there isn’t much room to turnaround. But that is a minor shortcoming for what is truly a beautiful house. If this one ever goes on the market, I intend to buy it!

Great place for large group.
Our family spent Christmas here and really enjoyed the home. The party consisted of 7 adults and it’s not easy to find accommodations that suit that many..
The kitchen is large enough to have several cooks working at once. It was nice to have several sitting/gathering areas. And there was plenty to do. Some felt the mattresses were too firm and said comfy pads would have improved their sleep. The only other negative was conflicting/confusing instructions for dealing with garbage, the fireplace, and checkout.

Perfect mountain spot
We had a great time at the Mountain/Lake home. A perfect spot for 8 guys to plan the perfect golf trip. The house was the perfect get away. The property was in a location just outside of town with plenty of dining options. One night we even just brought pizzas back to the house. The host was fantastic and we would definitely love to return.

Awesome on the lake property
Great home with lots of space and a huge deck right on the lake. We used the supplied kayaks every day. A great family get-together for us after not being together for almost 1.5 years. The description and pictures perfectly depict this great property.

Wonderful time! I want to be in touch with Alicen about renting the same house for 1 week next summer. It was a pleasure to work with Alicen. She responded to my questions as if I was her only client. When I checked out, the Housekeeping person also replied quickly. You have a great team!

Dream House by the Lake
Have you ever dreamed a Christmas Day with snow? We had a couple days ago. The house, location and the nature (lake, mountains) were ideal. We will definitely come back!

"Good news, bad news"
Good news:
Convenient location
Beautiful back view
Large house
Good amenities
Lots of seating
Bad news:
Terrible location - very near the main highway (64) with very dangerous and difficult entering and exiting the driveway.
"Zero" front appeal
Both simple and more significant maintenance needed: cobwebs inside, dirty, stained and bunched up carpeting, garage remote not working, lower level Adirondack chairs rotted and one broken,
main tv not working,
Light out over downstairs that we could not access to change
Did report some of the maintenance issues as instructed on our second day but never heard back

Lake Sequoyah
The property was as advertised .Very clean, great location.Easy to check in. Highly recommend it.The kayaks were good. Beds a little hard but otherwise no complaint.

Beautiful view but needs some updating
The location was beautiful but the property needed some updating. It needed some new blinds facing the lake and it needed curtains on the top floor facing the street. Also one of the ACs did not work but fortunately the weather was cool so that was not a problem. Since the area was on a highway it was not walkable around the home.

Amazing Lake House
Our family had a great time at the lake house. Adults and teens enjoyed exploring the area on kayaks and the paddle board. The house is spacious and clean, everything is neatly organized and labeled, and the grill and all appliances worked great. The deck is huge and we were easily able to eat meals together and watch the sunset and enjoy the stars at night. The house is also very convenient to town for a quick grocery run. We had such a great experience and we would love to come back again next year.
5.0
Our stay was wonderful.
Our stay was wonderful. There is a large yellow jacket nest on the upper deck overhang on the end toward town. And there were quite a few black ants in the house. Nothing major. Great. Alicon is always helpful.
