Experience Serene Lake Views at The Cove
Secluded on Fontana Lake, this brand-new, 2750 SF, lake-front mountain home is only 12 miles, 25 minutes from downtown Bryson City. A perfect property for families or a few couples who desire mountain lake enjoyment at its finest. A spectacular, wilderness lake view greets you as you enter. Soaring wood ceilings lead to large windows with breathtaking views and a floor-to-ceiling stacked-stone fireplace finishes the main living area. You'll enjoy a large deck for outdoor socializing in a serene, private setting. A well-stocked roomy kitchen overlooks the open floor plan inviting a comfortable social atmosphere, plenty of room for dining. One luxurious master suite is on the main level with its own deck overlooking the lake and comes with a spacious bathroom, dual sinks, and a large walk-in shower. The lower master, also with lake views comes with it's own private bath room with a walk-in shower and water closet. The 2nd lower-level bedroom comes with a full-size bunk bed with a pull out trundle. A roomy downstairs living, gaming, recreation area, with full bath, includes a 55" TV w/soundbar, mini foosball, comfortable furniture, including a sleeper sofa. TV’s are also provided in both the masters and upstairs great room. A patio off this lower level also offers amazing views, a fire pit w/ comfortable seating, a separate picnic area and of course, a hot tub. You'll be amazed with the hardscaping. More private seating for two is also provided on a lower deck looking over the lake. An easy stroll on the private trail leads to the covered dock where you can swim and store your boat for fishing, lake touring, skiing, or tubing. Over 700 miles of trails can be accessed by boat into Great Smoky Mountain National park or one can tour by boat over to Tsali's famous mountain bike trails. One can arrange for boat rentals at one of two local marinas. Two kayaks and a stand-up paddle board are provided for complimentary use. The Bryson City area has been described as the most beautiful pristine lakefront wilderness areas in the southeast. Access to 30-mile-long Fontana Lake is limited in that 96% of its 236 miles of shoreline is federally owned, bordered by the Great Smoky Mountain National Park to the north and the Nantahala National Forest on its southern shores. National Geographic’s Vacation Magazine and ABC’s Good Morning America rated this area the “Number One Vacation Water Destination in Americaâ€. Travelers Magazine rated Bryson City as one of the five most amazing mountain towns in America. And, according to the Men's Journal article, one of "The 10 Best Mountain Towns in America†with the area offering unsurpassed outdoor recreation. *Please note that Fontana Lake levels fluctuate in the off season and the dock will not be floating for about 5 months of the year.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Beautiful property
We came over the Thanksgiving holiday and once we arrived we loved it. It was a little hard to find so be prepared to find it on GPS before you start your trip. I arrived at night so didn't see the key at first. The house is well equipped and new. Amenities were great. Internet worked great as well as streaming devices.
