What a great stay! This house is beautiful, perfectly private, and packed with activities to do (inside the lodge and out). Our group of ten people ranged in ages from 1 to 75 and there was something for everyone! Our days were spent swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, playing cards/games, and enjoying meals together.
We found the lodge very clean. I was impressed with how well stocked it was with essentials (not all are like that) and the "extras" which made our stay even more enjoyable (two baby gates which were a Godsend with the 1yo).
Craig was very responsive and helpful.
We cant wait to visit again.

This was truly an amazing Thanksgiving away. The cabin was great! It clean and very accommodating for a family of 12. Pictures simply cannot capture how beautiful the view was. The owners were great and very responsive with any questions we had. My family and I had an amazing time and will definitely return.

We were visiting for my brother’s wedding and had such a lovely visit! The house easily accommodated our group of 7 (two small kids) and could have comfortably fit a handful more. The kitchen was well stocked, lounge areas very comfortable for nights hanging with the family, and bathrooms very suitable for all the work that goes into wedding prep :) The beds were very comfortable and everyone felt like they had great nights’ sleep—very needed after long travels from the West Coast!
But perhaps above all of that was Craig’s communication and responsiveness. He was SO helpful and friendly. He truly made our trip. And make sure you listen to his advice on getting a 4WD for the steep gravel driveway! We went in early Nov and there was one drizzly day that our 2WD barely made it out.
Thank you so much for the great stay!

Echo cabin was exactly as described. Fantastic lake views!! Fully stocked, great layout and easy lake access!! Cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed soaking up the view from the many porches, hot tub and the dock. Owners were very quick to respond to questions. We would definitely stay here again!

We had the pleasure of staying at the most enchanting lakefront home in North Carolina, and it truly exceeded all our expectations. This lovely abode offered everything one could possibly wish for in a peaceful lakeside retreat, making it an unforgettable experience that left lasting family memories.
The first thing that captured our hearts was the breathtaking view of the lake. The home's strategic location allowed us to wake up every morning to the most stunning sunrise over the serene waters. Whether we were enjoying a cup of coffee on the deck or simply lounging in the living room, the captivating lake views were a constant source of tranquility and joy.
One of the highlights of the property was the relaxing hot tub. After a day of exploring the surrounding nature or engaging in water activities, sinking into the warm waters of the hot tub was an absolute treat. It was the perfect way to unwind and share stories under the twinkling stars.
Another delightful feature was the porch swing bed. Swinging gently, lulled by the lake's gentle breeze, was an experience that felt like pure bliss. It quickly became our go-to spot for afternoon naps or quiet moments with a good book.
The lakeside fire pit area was an absolute hit with our entire family. We spent evenings gathered around the crackling fire, toasting marshmallows and making s'mores—a classic camping activity elevated to a whole new level of comfort and relaxation.
The private dock with a ladder provided endless fun for our family. We had a blast swimming and playing in the clear waters of the lake. It was the ideal place for various water activities, from swimming to fishing, adding an extra layer of excitement to our vacation.
Stepping inside the home was like entering a dream. The interior was beautifully decorated, striking a perfect balance between rustic charm and modern comfort. The attention to detail in the decor made us feel right at home. The living spaces were spacious, inviting, and filled with natural light, ensuring we always felt comfortable and at ease.
Above all, the memories we made in this lovely home will be cherished for a lifetime. It provided the perfect setting for quality time with our family, fostering a sense of togetherness and happiness.
We plan to return again, as this home is a hidden gem that we feel incredibly lucky to have discovered. Craig and Andrea are wonderful hosts. They go out of their way to make you feel at home. Best vacay ever in N.C.!

Echo Lake Lodge works really well for a group like ours -- tweens, teens, parents, and grandparents! The kids loved the cozy loft upstairs, where the bunks are, and also the great hang-out game room on the ground floor. The adults basically lived on the deck with the beautiful lake view. Nice big comfortable open living area to accommodate everyone at meals and for socializing, but there were also great nooks and crannies for slipping away with a book or for a nap. Great dock with an umbrella. Very typical Lake Nantahala caveats for those who haven't visited the lake before: driveways are gravel and very steep, as are steps and paths down to the water, but our grandparent-generation did fine at this house. Loved having the kayaks and canoe available. Host was very responsive, helpful, and friendly! Would definitely visit again.

We had an amazing stay at your home and enjoyed good friends, food, the cold plunging and boating.

Enjoyed the cabin on the lake and the quiet that came with being away from any town. Had a blast on the lake and finding places near to raft and hike.

Everything about our stay on Lake Nantahala was perfect! We can't say enough about how comfortable and well-stocked the lodge was. The large decks, screened room with a fireplace, swinging bed, comfortable beds and furnishings, first-class amenities... We could go on and on. The lodge was clean and well designed so our whole group could be together or we could spread out and have our own space. And that's just indoors! Lake Nantahala is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. The kayaks and paddleboard were definitely enjoyed by our family. So fun to paddle around the bend to the marina/store for ice cream! As stated by other reviews, the host was so helpful in every step of the process. So many helpful notes and instructions in the lodge to make everything go smoothly!! Definitely a new favorite vacation spot!!

We just completed our 3rd stay at this beautiful lakefront home and will definitely go back next year. The cove and dock are the perfect spot to relax; everyone enjoys the paddle board, canoe, and swimming in the clean water. The house works out well for our multi-generational group. The grandparents get the gorgeous master suite, and the kids and grandkids have the remaining four bedrooms to share. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking at home. One of our favorite spots is the large back deck with lots of rocking chairs. Lake Nantahala has been our favorite lake vacation destination for over 20 years, and this lovely home is allowing us to continue the family tradition.

It was an amazing experience, being on the lake you could enjoy time on the dock, deck, or in the water. It was nice getting away from electronics and focus on the surrounding nature.
