    We arrived at the property after a long travel day. When we entered the property, we all noticed a strong musty smell. When I went into the master bedroom, I noticed a framed photograph that looked very dusty. I swiped my finger across it and it left a mark. Within seconds, my husband started coughing and had to go outside. He is highly sensitive and allergic to mold and went into a full on attack with vomiting and difficulty breathing. We called the property owners right away and were told to contact property management. They cancelled our reservation immediately and refunded our money. However, it was 8:00 on Saturday night of Memorial Day weekend and we now had no place to stay (family of 6). We called around and finally found a hotel for the night. The owners were kind and responsive, however, it needs to be noted that the property has a high water content and mold issues that need to be addressed. It is not safe for a family to stay there. We want to help more families avoid their vacation being ruined. Please install dehumidifiers and clean for mold remediation.

    We had a great time. Nice to drop our boat and canoe in close by and get to the dock. The stairs are long, but a good leg and cardio workout. The owners were amazing and responded very promptly- espeically important since we booked so last minute, but also responsive during our trip. Thank you Joe and Nancy!!

    Perfect getaway on this absolutely charming lake. The house was perfect for two families with teenagers. Plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed; and the house was so nice that we happily cooked every meal at the house and enjoyed them on the porches overlooking the lake. The dock was great for swimming and for the boat we rented from Lakes End Marina. This was probably one of my favorite vacations of all time and we all look forward to returning soon.

    The host, Joe, was awesome! He stayed in communication with us. A cold front came in and my father in law was cold, Joe walked my husband through changing the temperature on all floors in the house. We loved the quiet stay and the view. Home is very spacious so everyone had their own quarters. We loved it and wasn’t ready to go! Will definitely stay again!

    Our family loved this house. There was space for everyone (10 of us) and the 4 bathrooms gave everyone privacy. The kitchen was well equipped. The porches were amazing. We spent all our time out there. The walk to the dock was definitely a workout but once you got there it was perfect. Lake Nantahala is spectacular. We brought enough food for the week so we did not need to go out. We brought kayaks and paddle boards that we were able to ferry over from the public marina that is very close. The house also had 3 kayaks, so we had toys for everyone. It was a wonderful family vacation.
