Casa de Yayo



The Space:

A gorgeous setting both inside and out, this luxury home on the shores of Lake Toxaway is a place for taking in the quiet beauty of the North Carolina highlands. In this blissfully tranquil spot, you'll have a small dock at the water's edge, a canoe, a kayak, and life jackets to take out each morning.



This three-story lakefront home is full of understated luxury and style. Begin each day on the ground floor, workingout in the well-equipped gym with two TVs, readying the canoe (1) and kayak (1) for a morning paddle, and sipping your coffee on the flagstone patio overlooking the lake.



Moving upstairs, you'll find the main living spaces on the third floor, including an inviting family room with foldable glass doors that open to a covered deck. Adjoining this room is an elegant kitchen with stainless steel appliances, including a French-door refrigerator and a gas stove. There's also a farm sink and a large island with bar seating. There's also a formal dining room and plentiful outdoor seating.



There are two top-floor bedrooms- one lakefront room with an en suite bathroom and direct deck access and another with an en suite bathroom and a connected study that serves as a fantastic work-from-home spacer. The second-floor bunk room offers a lake-facing play area for the kids.

    Amazing home. This was our second stay and it was wonderful. Lots of room and our teenage grand children loved the freedom of the bunk room. Plenty of swimming and kayaking on the lake as well. This is an exceptional property and we easily agreed on a 5 star rating. Being fair though, a set of proper pots, pans and cookware is needed. Those available were mismatched orphans. Likewise additional flatware (forks and spoons) would be great. Those available were adequate at best. Also, as has been mentioned in other reviews, this great property has one queen bed and one double. A king bed or two additional queens would be better than having guests sleep in the children' bunk room. Still a 5 star though.

    Beautiful property! The location is incredible and the home was even nicer than the pictures. We wished the upstairs bedrooms had king beds or at least 2 queens, but either way we will definitely be back!

    We had to be in Lake Toxaway for work so it was not a pleasure trip but that view made it feel like we were on vacation in the afternoons after work !

    This is our third time staying here, and each time is as good as the last. Beautiful home, serene setting, and a great setup for two families!

    My family travels to Lake Toxaway once a year and we love the area. It was our first time to Casa de Yayo. The house itself is great. And the view of the lake is spectacular. The house was not clean (Vacasa offered to come and clean, however we did not want the disruption since we had just arrived). The house could use an instruction book covering things like light switch system, overriding the programs on the thermostats, how to use the sound system, etc. We thought it could be stocked better (e.g. no tissues, partially used roll of paper towels with no back up, better organization of kitchen and supplies checklist, at least two more Adirondack chairs on patio, etc.). Greater potential here with a little more effort.

    This is a nice house and it was clean. The stairs are quite steep going downstairs, so if you have bad knees be careful.

    This house was beautiful, and in a very quiet area. I would definitely stay at this location again.
