My husband and I had a wonderful and very relaxing time at the lake house. This was our second time staying at the lake house and we will be back again. This place is so clean, comfortable and it has everything you could need. We love going out exploring the lake in the kayaks and course the fishing is really good too! Thanks again Donna, for allowing us to stay at your place and for being such a wonderful host!

Wifi did not work. The code was wrong or not related to the system. TV was not cable but that horrible streaming where you cant get any normal network programming. Floors did not match. Kitchen light switch was hidden. No TP holder in bathroom. Shower faucet was falling off and hard to adjust. Building seemed to be coming apart. View was not very good despite the pictures. Driveway was rutted and poor condition as was the street in front. Really a terrible experience. We have photos.

Awesome time exploring Lake Santeelah and Fontana Lake. My grandfather grew up in Robbinsville and being up here brings me back to my chikdhood coming up here with him and my family. Just an amazing time. The charcoaled steaks were a bonus!

The Good, the Bad & The Ugly

Good- Great view of Lake from Upper Deck, Kayaks provided and good lake Access, Great star gazing, AC works great Bad & The Ugly- House is surrounded by 3 abandoned properties, old RV, a junky lot and a dilapidated "Barge" in the water, the outside of the property needs some TLC, dish washing and paper supplies were sparse

Good value

This is a cozy cottage with some views of the lake, but there are a couple of other houses between the cottage and the lake. The highway is very close and the location is between the Tail of the Dragon and the Cherohala Skyway, two motorcycle bucket list roads, so the noise is a regular part of the atmosphere. Some of the nearby properties have messy yards that the owner probably cannot help. There were some nice touches to items furnished for comfort, but also some sparseness.. For example, only two dinner plates, only salad forks that were smaller than usual to eat with, no can opener, the grate that holds the charcoal in the grill is missing and there are no appropriate tools for grilling or lighter to light the charcoal. The property could use some maintenance such as power washing the porch and deck and washing of the windows. It's definitely an older structure, but considering the cost of other houses in the area, this place gives good value for the price. With a few additions and a little elbow grease, it could be awesome.

Do you love the smell of marijuana in the morning? Boy do I have the property for you!

Come get away in the rustic mountains of Western North Carolina where the weeds are waist high! The amenities include: A terrible gravel driveway that’s half washed out in a sketchy cutback curve. You probably will not be able to make if you don’t own an SUV or Truck. The rustic smell of weed that smacks you in the face the second you open the door. Love no cell service and promised Wi-Fi when, surprise, there is no Wi-Fi! Windows with broken screens on most of the windows, if they have a screen at all, to let out all the weed smell and let in all the insects you can imagine. A fully functioning window A/C unit complete with mold. A view to die for of overgrown trees, and an abandoned house blocking the lake. Lake access through someone else’s property. Don’t forget about the fresh green weeds growing at least waist high all around the property, including the back yard! Ants and various other insects roaming both inside and out. A back yard full of weeds, an unkept retaining wall of rocks perfectly suited for a family of snakes! It’s pet friendly! The backyard is fully fenced in with chairs or rocks patching up the holes and a single piece of 1x12” board to keep your pet from escaping. I promise you you’ll leave it better than you found it! You’ll pay for rustic and you’ll get unkept. Happy travels! :D

It was a quick & easy process of checking in & out. My husband & I just came with our Harley in tow to conquer the Dragon, which we did several times! It was awesome! We also enjoyed the scenery, fishing at the nearby lake & took advantage of the kayaks provided with the property.
