About this cottage rental
Enjoy being tucked away in the trees surrounded by 2.5 acres overlooking the Snowbird mountain range and Lake Santeetlah. This one story, two bedroom cottage sleeps six (two queen beds and one queen sleeper sofa). Lake access in a private cove is a short walk away so bring your kayak, paddle board or canoe. If you are seeking a quiet place to relax or looking for outdoor adventure, you have found the perfect place to land. Trillium Cottage is located in Blue Boar Estates, minutes from Robbinsville, North Carolina. Enjoy the beauty of Nantahala National Forest and Lake Santeetlah.
Start your day with coffee on the front porch, watching the birds fly high above the lake as the morning mist slowly disappears. Spend you days hiking, fishing, biking, swimming, canoeing, or simply relax on the front porch with a good book or journal. Finish your day with a soak in the hot tub under the blanket of stars! It's a true escape.
**ATTENTION: The forest service road leading to my property is a gravel road and somewhat steep in a couple places. We recommend front or all wheel drive. Please check with me before Instant Booking if you are in doubt.
*If you have a group larger than Trillium Cottage can accommodate and looking for an additional cottage close by, please check out Sundance Cottage (Rental 1093066vb). It's a very short walk away and can accommodate 7.

We loved our stay at Trillium cottage, and Lake Santeetlah. Spent many hours on the lake with the family, hiked in Joyce Kilmer, and enjoyed just hanging out in this beautiful cottage. Thanks Jim, you were a wonderful host!

My kids and I stayed here in early July '23. The cottage is lovely. It's close enough to go explore and do things, but also secluded for privacy. The host does a great job communicating with you before and during your stay, if need be. The hot tub was spacious and the wifi was strong enough to connect to the world when needed. It's also located close to my favorite hike Huckleberry Knob. Defintely recommend.

Great cottage and home base for doing some fly fishing in snowbird creek. The view from the front deck is amazing. Cottage had everything we needed. We really appreciate the owner’s flexibility and responsiveness.

Very thankful for the peace and quiet, and sophisticated subtitles of this VRBO. Jim is an excellent host who made my first experience with VRBO a very pleasant memory worth repeating.

Beautiful house and even more beautiful view!
Fell in love with the area. My daughter is planning her wedding at Tapoco Lodge and this was our home base.
Clean, cozy, well appointed home. Jim thought of everything.

This little cottage was absolutely amazing. We wish we had booked it for longer--we were only there for two nights. Jim was a very communicative host and very quick to respond to any questions we had. The place was very clean and had an amazing view. Jim didn't miss one detail--there was everything anyone could have needed right there. Next time we will stay longer and enjoy more of what it had to offer. Thank you, Jim, for being a wonderful host!

This was the nicest cottage (best view) that we've stayed with tons of cooking supplies and certainly roomy enough for 4 people (2 couples). Everything was as described. We did like many others and drove down to the lake (10-12min hike) because the path IS the driveway/road.

This place was loads of fun!! We have four kids, 11 and under, and we fit just fine. This property has everything you need: towels, toiletries, oil for cooking, lots of pots and pans, and spices! Very well stocked kitchen!
You need to drive to the lake for lake access but it’s really close and has a wonderful cove that is the perfect size for kayaking and swimming. You can also kayak/boat outside of the cove.

Perched on a hillside over a quiet Santeelah bay- a fine setting. The Hot tub following days hiking or paddling was just as fine. Exceeded expectations on all counts.

We are two retired couples from Virginia and Tennessee that decided to meet together for a visit and to see the Joyce Kilmer forest. The view from the deck is wonderful. The house is one of the best maintained and all needs and then some in the kitchen. Really excellent. The drive way is admittedly (we were warned by the owner) quite steep, but we both made it up without difficulty.

We enjoyed our stay at Jim's with all the amenities , the location, the hot tub and all the little details that make a stay even cozier! Things like super comfy robes, a fully equipped kitchen with spices and teas, awesome board games to play, and access to a gorgeous lake with paddleboard and canoe. We didn't get to use those this trip but we will the next time! Thank you Jim! We look. forward to coming back!

Jim’s home above Lake Santeetlah was beautiful, comfortable, and completely private. We loved the lake and the property and hope to return some time. Thank you Jim!

This cottage is a mile off the highway and has lovely views at a 2000’ elevation. It allows access to all types of outdoor recreation, and there are lots of hikes in the area (which is what we were looking for). Fall colors just starting to turn.

This place is well loved. We will be back!
