Shady Rest - Lake Toxaway
Five years between visits is too long! We stayed at Shady Rest in 07/18 and again recently. The home is very well maintained and there were many updates from our last visit. With six adults, a 10 yo and a 13 yo, there was plenty of room to spread out. The home includes all the creature comforts, including Wifi and new streaming tv's, a well-stocked kitchen, and a deck boat. Yes, a boat! Water-skiing and tubing were a part of our daily activities, as well as cruising the shoreline and enjoying the charm of Lake Toxaway. Steve and Rosie are terrific hosts and wonderful at responding to any inquiries/issues immediately. It is our sincere desire to get back there as often as we are able! Patty and Ron H.

This was our 5th year in a row. Excellent property with great views. Convenience of a boat to enjoy the entire lake is a real bonus. We’ll be back. The hosts are the best.

Another Wonderful Stay 6/17-24
This is our second time staying at Steve and Rosie’s! We had a great week despite the rainy weather. You cannot beat the location on this beautiful lake! The layout of the house works well for our family. The kitchen is well stocked. We enjoyed sunrise and afternoon cocktails from the decks. The kids had a blast in the lake. Didn’t let the rain and fog stop them at all! I read a couple books outside on the deck and had a regular hummingbird visitor. Steve and Rosie were very accessible when we needed them as we lost power in one of the storms and a couple of other questions arise. We got to enjoy a couple of restaurants, wineries and breweries in the area this year. All were great experiences. All in all, we had another relaxing vacation at one of our favorite places! Thanks so much :). We will be back!

Beautiful Location
Lake Toxaway is absolutely beautiful. The house is located close to amazing hiking trails and water falls. Our three boys ages 7,9 and 10 had a blast in the boat fishing and tubing! We made lasting memories. The Shades were very good at communicating. We truly enjoyed our stay!!

Beautiful Views, TOP Hosts
We travel a lot and I will say that Steve and Rosie are Premier Hosts. They were always able to respond to every need of ours. There was so much rain that the Lake Toxaway Association had to close the lake. The status changed by the hour, so we needed to know when we could go out, how fast, etc. They were always available to help. Very kind and efficient hosts with true gifts of hospitality. The house was super clean and comfortable. Having the boat and kayaks, plus canoe, were top reasons we would be back. The location on the lake was perfect as well as the views from each bedroom and living areas. Two living areas make this nice for two families. Three bedrooms, two full baths downstairs with living area and main bedroom, one bath on the main floor with the kitchen and living areas. Lots of living space on two large decks. Like others have said, the kitchen is fully equipped. They have a Keurig, regular coffee maker and espresso maker. I would recommend bringing boat towels and soccer folding type chairs to sit out on the boat deck on the water. The house has a grill, very nice fire pit, plenty of bath towels, washer dryer, etc. We are grateful for our time at Shady Rest and hope to be back soon.
