Best View on the Lake
Wow! We enjoyed breakfast, lunch, and dinner with an amazing view of the mountains and lake. The view on the deck is spectacular but if it was too hot or rainy, the beautiful windows allowed the view to continue inside. We rented the boat for a few days and enjoyed touring the lake. Checkin/out was easy and communication with the property owner was great. We had a wonderful stay.

Great experience!
First time to Lake James and very glad we chose this property. It was well maintained and clean. More than enough kitchen items to make any meal (we cook a lot). A slide and diving board were recently added to the property and the kids loved it!
Communication with the host was very good; friendly with quick responses that answered our questions.
The only "concern" I would point out are the steps going to boat dock. They are very cumbersome to navigate and somewhat unstable depending on your physical condition. Most of it is due to the topography of the land, but make sure you are ready to carry coolers, floats, etc. up and down 100 stairs - quite the workout!

Perfect relaxing house on the lake!
The house and property were beautiful! The view of the lake was amazing; we enjoyed coffee on the deck in the morning and watching the stars in the evening. The furniture in the house was excellent; very comfortable chairs and beds. There is plenty of room to spread out, but also great gathering spots for family time. The den downstairs was perfect for enjoying family movies. The kitchen was amazing and there was tons of seating options.
The stairs to the lake definitely gave us our daily exercise! The location of the house and on the lake is quite private; we almost never heard or saw the neighbors. Overall, it was a perfect house for a relaxing stay with our family of 5.

Luxury with a view
The house was one of the nicest we’ve stayed in, plenty of room for three families. Our 3 and 4 year old kids loved swimming and using the slide. The hosts were quick to fix a problem with the water pump for the slide and very responsive to any questions. The kitchen is very well stocked and we used the grill as well. The house is also not a really long drive in, unlike some properties on the lake. We’re already talking about when we can come back.

Secluded Lake House - Outdoor Amenities
Visited home on Memorial Day weekend. Cannot say enough great things.
Location: Lake James is very large, deep lake, but with state park and camping facilities on a large portion, the houses are limited compared to other lakes and crowds are very light. Easy to reach just a few miles off highway.
House: One of the best stocked houses ever stayed in with almost anything you could need. Very comfortably housed 2 families of 5 in 4 bedrooms. Fully stocked kitchen, games, bedrooms. Outdoor fireplace on a turf grass backyard with large wood storage. Expansive outdoor deck with ample seating and a covered porch with pool table. High up on cliff overlooking beautiful section of lake.
Activities: Long stairway down to dock area. May be difficult for anyone with challenges walking up stairs. Paddle Boards, Kayaks, extra seating, diving board and slide all on dock provided hours of fund. Owner will rent personal boat / jet ski to guests only for additional fee (docked right at house).
Already looking into booking again. Spent most of the time on lake, but drove 25 min to Linville Wilderness area for hiking and stopped at Fonta Flora brewery and farm on way back.
Keep the lake a secret as long as can.

Mountain Lake Get-Away
This is a beautiful, clean, and very well stocked home with Spectacular Views of Lake James. We loved having the master up on the main level and the remaining bedrooms with an additional living area downstairs for our adult age children and their partners. The kitchen was very large and well stocked. We really enjoyed the pool table on the back porch and the built in Sonos Sound system throughout the entire home. We enjoyed coffees each morning and evening cocktails on the deck overlooking the lake. So peaceful!!! Booking and corresponding with Karen was easy and effortless. I strongly suggest renting the pontoon boat from the homeowner, who is also a pleasure to work with! This allowed us to enjoy the entire lake while trolling around admiring the other lakefront homes and searching for fish. We definitely look forward to future vacation Get-Aways at this beautiful home!!!
