I also appreciated the check in process and easy text communication. A couple of issues though, the frig wasn’t properly cleaned. A couple of the drawers still had juices from previous guests. The frig also stopped cooling on day 3 of 5. We were offered to use the owner’s frig on the lower level. That was nice but quite inconvenient to the kitchen and no update on if anyone was going to come fix the frig for the rest of our stay. I’d say that put a damper on our stay as we’re a big foodie family and some groceries were wasted. Overall, the house was beautiful and communication was good until an issue arises and there was no follow up besides issuing a ticket to fix ##### Amanda F.

Water like glass at all hours of the day. Very few other boats at this location. Nice covered dock slip in very deep water. House is nestled in the woods with no other houses in sight. Neighborhood has a nice boat launch but be warned that you need to navigate 6 miles of hairpin turns up the mountain to get there. House was decorated beautifully and furniture was very comfortable. Kitchen had gourmet appliances but was light on the type of serving implements and cooking pans that you need for a large group. There is only seating for eight at the table. An outdoor dining table with seating for as many as the house sleeps on the upper deck off the kitchen would be a great addition to the house! ##### Kim Z.

This cabin was cozy, comfy and had a magnificent kitchen. We made most of our meals here, so we appreciated how well equipped it was. We rented a pontoon boat for two days and were able to dock it at our cabin so we could go tubing and enjoy a sunset cruise before having to return the boat. We went tubing down the river in Cherokee one day and then stopped in town to just stroll through all the shops and grab a bite to eat. We also enjoyed kayaking and swimming from the dock and making S'mores in the fireplace on the upper patio. The views were fantastic. We loved every minute of our stay. Thank you! ##### Nadine S.

Just a word of caution - it is quite a long and curvy road to the house. Expect a 15-20 minute drive once you turn off the main road into the subdivision. Once there, the location is great - just don't forget anything at the grocery! The loft is rather hot and was unusable in the August heat as there is only one a/c vent for the loft. The furnishings, water toys and house are awesome! ##### Dana M. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim H. Jul 15, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fontana Lake Lodge The property was just as described. It was beautiful and spacious enough for our 9 family members. The amenities were awesome! The only issues we had: there was no ventilation in the upstairs loft, where the pool table and foos ball table were located. There needs to be an exhaust system or ceiling fan up there because all the heat rose to the loft and it was so hot up there, it was almost unbearable. It would have been nice to have a broom in the house instead of a swiffer. Lastly, the gate code changed in the middle of our trip and we weren't notified. After several failed attempts to use the gate code, which had just worked the previous evening, we contacted the property management and were told the gate code changed. Minor things in an overall wonderful stay!! ##### Kim H. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### AMY W.

My husband and I took our two teenage boys and four of their friends it was the best week!! The guys had just as much fun at the house in the game room and all getting to stay down stairs together as they did on the lake each day. The home comes with a covered dock. We rented a pontoon boat from Almond Boat rentals. Their boats are spotless and some of the nicest people!! You can keep the boat overnight since it is a covered dock. They will deliver the boat to the house. Note the home is a LONG beautiful winding road from the entrance so make sure you stock up on all the groceries you will need for your trip. The home is one of the best stocked houses I’ve been too but would still bring extra paper towels and TP if you will have a full house. Beds were all so comfy which is always a pet peeve of mine. This house did not disappoint in any way!!! ##### AMY W. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Clark J.

Looks somewhat pricey at first but worth every penny. Fit 15 people very comfortably. Property management very easy to deal with. ##### Bobby N.

Nov 1, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### great location great location, close to NOC, Bryson City, Asheville, and the GSMNP. Drive up to the house takes about 20 minutes from the main road and is a little narrow (for those not used to driving in mountains). Not a quick run into town kind of road but we loved that the drive was beautiful and helped us slow the pace down a little bit. ##### Katie B. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Shanon V. Nov 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### The view was amazing and we truly enjoyed our stay. We were disappointed that the grills did not work properly, only one tv got reception, and the hot tub was filthy and not warm when we arrived. Overall we enjoyed the cabin but expected more up to date tv and working grill. Thank you. ##### Shanon V. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John S.
