Prepare for a secluded retreat, where quiet is part of the bargain! This home was once owned by a Swiss German yodeler, who found that their yodel could echo up to five times due to the area's quietness. That's the kind of quiet you can expect! Take the adjacent, unpaved path, and head out for some lake fun, only 500 steps away.

There's plenty to do in this cabin-inspired home with a limited view of the lake and a beautiful view of the forest (especially from the living room's wall of windows). Enjoy a game of air hockey or oversized Connect Four in the game room. Stoke up a fire outside in the private firepit and spend a great time outdoors. If you're leaning toward cooking inside, the full kitchen boasts a dishwasher, a wine fridge, a French door refrigerator, a breakfast bar, and a double oven to help feed everyone on your crew. After dinner, enjoy a DVD from the library or stream from your favorite service. Central air-conditioning will keep everyone comfortable inside, and there's room for everyone around the electric fireplace at this home. Pontoon rentals are available at Prince Boat Dock (nine miles), Fontana Village Resort Marina (14 miles), and Almond Boat Dock (14 miles).

Friend and family and I booked this cabin months prior and under the listing they said they had wifi which was very important as I magage a home improvement company and had to work during the stay remotely. Once we arrived we saw a note dated for July 2nd 4 days before our arrival that said sorry for the inconvenience but the wifi is out do to a router issue. My issue is they had 4 days to notify me so I could make arrangements for a different place so I could accomplish my work. I lost 2 full days of work. There was zero service at cabin so in order to report the issue I needed to drive 20 minutes to get service and even then could not get the problem resolved. This also made planning very difficult. I have asked more then once for a partial refund due to lost work and inconvenience and haven't gotten a single response and its been 2 weeks so now Im writing this.

Booked this for a family vacation to polar Express in Bryson City NC. This cabin was the cherry on the sundae for our trip. The views are breathtaking and pictures online do not do it justice. Made beautiful memories and will definitely book again!

The cabin is gorgeous and perfect for a large family or group. We had 8. Clean and well kept. The only downside is there is not a lot of easy access outdoor areas. So it really depends on what your vacation goals are!

very nice airy place. easily accommodates eight people and an infant. wifi was good but cable did not work for us. Was able to sign into netflix. some fans did not work and a/c was hard to control. it was colder than we wanted but we were still comfortable. Minor safety issue with the deck.

I loved that it was so big with plenty of room to spread out. It was clean on the inside and the kitchen was very well stocked to cook any meal. It was close to Nantahala Outdoor Center where we went rafting, and the Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest where we hiked. The WIFI was fantastic the whole time we were there. My cousin had to work one day and had no problems with the connection or speed. The only thing I was bummed about is that there is absolutely no lake access whatsoever, or if there is, we couldn't find it and there were no instructions in the house how to find it. Also, we spent lots of time out on the deck and it was really dirty. Maybe wash the chairs, knock down all the spider webs and sweep the deck. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
