About this house rental

This welcoming modern cottage is located directly on Fontana Lake in the summer and Alarka Creek in the fall, winter, and spring. Pull your boat up to our dock in the summer or fish in the trout-stocked creek steps outside your door when the lake is down. Let the sounds of the flowing creek wash away all of your life's stress or hop in the hot tub for the same effect!

The house has a well-stocked kitchen with the tools and spices needed to help prepare a meal. The living room's gas fireplace provides the perfect backdrop for family game time, curling up with a book, or a romantic evening in. With a memory foam king bed in the upper suite, queen bunk beds downstairs, and two baths, this cottage perfectly accommodates a family or two couples traveling together. A Pack 'n Play and booster seat are provided. A washer and dryer are also available. You will find many of the "little things" are taken care of to help make your stay easy and comfortable.

Hiking, biking, rafting, and more are just minutes away. In about 10-20 minutes, you can drive to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, Tsali Recreation Area, Nantahala Outdoor Center, and Bryson City. Or stay in and enjoy a book, movie, or game with your family and friends. In addition to the smart TV and Roku, you'll have an extensive DVD collection to choose from. There is also an NES Classic Nintendo, with 30 retro Nintendo games, to help keep the kids, or the kid in you, entertained.

Fontana Lake is typically up from Memorial Day to Labor Day. During this time, boating, kayaking, and swimming directly from our cottage is possible. After Labor Day, the lake level is lowered and Alarka Creek is just outside the door. The creek level varies, but it generally isn't deep enough to support boating or kayaking. While we cannot control the water level, we are happy to answer any questions you have about it before your stay.

Bryson City is approximately 10-15 minutes down the road. There you will find a grocery store, dining options, local breweries, and shopping.

Cherokee is approximately 25 minutes away, just a few exits down highway 74. Here, Harrah's Cherokee Casino, museums and cultural experiences, hiking, biking, and more await your discovery!

We found the cabin to be clean and well stocked. Having kayaks provided was also a plus. We enjoyed relaxing on the porch as well as the dock.

We had such a great trip in this lovely cabin with excellent amenities. The cabin has wifi for the streamlining service on the tv and maybe another device but cell service was a no. I tried to enable WiFi calling but it wouldn’t work and I’m not complaining because I had forced separation from work lol. Sitting on the porch drinking coffee in the morning and listening to the water, relaxing with some adult beverages at the fire pit were highlights for me. The hot tub was nice but we only got to use once and the fireplace adds ambience. (Don’t forget that hot air rises for when you to bed 😁) Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay and plan to go back to the property in the future. It’s a great location and Bryson City has a ton of adventure to offer. I rated the cleanliness of the property 4 stars not because the home was unclean, but because the outside space was covered with spiders and webs. Early October is a bad time of year for bugs which I completely understand. If you are spider weary clean the deck prior to sitting outside or enjoying the hot tub.

Property was clean and well-stocked. We enjoyed the dock and lake- as did our dogs. I did have to run into town to buy a float as there were no tubes/floats, just kayaks. Not a big deal, but you might want to BYO.
