This is our third year vacationing on Nantahala Lake and have tried to stay in different places—this is one of our favorites!From playing in the jacuzzi to tubing on the lake, playing pool to foosball, and relaxing on the multi-level balconies and theater room—it was all so much fun. We dubbed this place the Stairway to Heaven because we counted approximately 222 stairs from the top room to the boat dock—great workout and great fun! ##### Addie W.

The key box is difficult to open. Taking out trash required us to drive 30 minutes one way!!! Otherwise they threatened to charge us for each trash bag. There are over 100 steep stairs to the lake, keep it in mind. ##### Marina G. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sherry S.

This was our first annual immediate family reunion. The house was beautiful with wood decor and a great view of the lake. It was roomy and slept 12 comfortably and is pet friendly! The only comment I would have is that the access to the dock needs work - you had to walk across a loose 2x6 to get from the steps the the dock.

It is beautiful! It is very clean and well maintained. There are a lot of activities and restaurants nearby. We especially enjoyed renting a pontoon boat one day to take the children tubing. One day was spent river rafting, which was enjoyed by all of us. GREAT BEDS!!! ##### Betty C. ### 8/10 Good #### Eric S., DC Aug 28, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place on an amazing lake This property is a great place right on the lake with amazing views, nice furnishings, all the kitchen essentials, great video room and best movie collection I have ever seen and nice game room. Being close to a public boat launch is great since the grandparents didn't have to navigate the 80 or so steps. My only concern was there could be a few more basics like extra plates salad bowls, spices and the steps could be fixed up ( section had missing handrail) and be extended to cover all areas of the walk down to the lake. Still, I'd come back. ##### Eric S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### April J.

Supplied with movies or bring your own. Pool, fuseball, fire pit, dock & boat! The only thing is you have to be in shape, in lake Nantahala, most homes have many steps to get from lake to house. This one was no exception but beautiful comfortable home !! I would come again for sure. ##### April J. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Vickie M.

Also none of the pathway lights worked. And the steps and walk way leadi f to the cabin were in very bad shape and was not easy to walk with babies and elderly people. We will not be staying there again. ##### Vickie M. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dayna S.

There were many steps to the lake so if you have family members unable to make the journey this is not the place. Attention to the step area near the lake needs to be completed b/c it is slippery when wet. Beautiful home and wonderful lake. We rented the pontoon boat for several days and the process was very easy , Trevor dropped off the keys and picked them up in timely manner, very nice gentelman. We enjoyed our stay, thank-you for sharing your lovely home. ##### Dayna S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rita M. Jan 4, 2019 #### Beautiful, clean large lake home - great for families This five bedroom beautiful mountain lake house was a perfect remote getaway for my family over the holidays. The scenery was spectacular. Haveing no internet or WiFi makes it a perfect time for families to play games and bond. The game room and movie room was great. We hiked the Appalachian Mountains, it was definitely a real hike with amazing scenery at the top. I would definitely recommend this house to families who want to get away from it all and have a great mountain house experience. The owners Donna and Gregg were very easy to deal with and made the adventure very pleasant. We would definitely go back. ##### Rita M.

The kitchen was packed with pots/pans/utensils/bowls and anything you could think of. This was great as we cooked almost every meal during our 4 night stay. There were a lot of stairs to get to the lake but this was manageable and we were all in better shape by the end of the trip! The house was clean and well maintained. We had an issue with a loose step going to the dock and it was fixed within about an hour of us notifying the owners. The boat rental was also an easy transaction and we made good use of it. My family and I would highly recommend this rental property! ##### Christie D. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wendy J.

Game room with pool table was fun. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to feed a group of 12\. The beds were decently comfortable. The walk to the dock was just what we needed to work off all the good food. For the family members that couldn't walk down the stairs to the boat, we drove to the boat landing so no one missed out on 2 days of boating. The parking at the house was super easy compared to our last stay in the same neighborhood (could have fit 5 mid to large size vehicles). The house owners are very responsive and helpful. ##### Wendy J.

It was easy to find, clean, and well-maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed the theater, which was supplied with a wide variety of movies to watch. There were lots of steps, but they were not a problem for any us. This was our 5th summer vacation in the mountains of N.C., but our first time staying on a lake. The children thoroughly enjoyed swimming in the lake off your dock. We were so glad that you had plenty of life jackets for us to use. The owner was very helpful and responded to our questions quickly. I would (and already have) recommend this place to anyone to rent. Thanks for sharing your place with us. ##### Betty C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carrie W.

This large mountain house that overlooks a gorgeous lake is wonderful. The lake is low this time of year but it still didn’t deter the beauty of the lake surrounded by mountains. We loved everything about this house. The game room was great to hang out and play games on the pool table and foosball. We used the pontoon boat to ride around and just enjoy the surroundings. Highly recommend. It does cost extra but I feel it’s worth it. Just be prepared for a lot of steps in the house and outside but it is on a side of a mountain and the house is massive so we felt we got our exercise in. lol. The owner Greg and caretaker were very nice and always answered our questions in a timely matter. Thanks again for a wonderful stay. ##### Carrie W.

Our family greatly enjoyed our stay and had an amazing relaxing week at this house and Lake Nantahala. Our boys loved jumping and swimming off the dock and they also loved fishing off the dock. We rented a boat and enjoyed many rides and tubing on the lake throughout the week. The house is well stocked, it worked perfect for us to enjoy cooking breakfast every morning and dinners at the house also really enjoyed eating on the deck with a great view and watching the boats go by. There are stairs down to the lake and back as there are with most all houses on the lake, it was a great work out for the week for our family! It is a large lake house with space for all, so much to do there and so relaxing and peaceful at the same time. The owners were extremely responsive throughout booking and all. We all loved our week and our stay at this lake house and did not want to leave! ##### Amber S.
