The Views is an a appropriate name

With this place situated on a ridge in the middle of the lake, the views were awesome from both sides of the house. The only warning is that one needs to be prepared for the rather steep drive that is takes to get in and out.

Pretty spot, decent property

Served its purpose overall. Couldn’t get ahold of the manager though. The front and back doors didn’t seem the most secure. The place just seemed like we were the first people of the season to stay in it. Also, the door to the owners suite in the back of the house was left open. However the living area was nice and the house fit our needs for the weekend.

Beautiful location

Lovely place and the location is amazing! Perfect if a very firm mattress is what you prefer, unfortunately it's not our preference so sleep was challenging. Property is changing owners so changes may be made. We'd definitely consider staying here again despite the extra firm mattresses.

Amazing retreat!

We love this small, safe community. The home itself has beautiful views of the mountains and so many amenities to accommodate our needs during our stay. The furnishings are homey providing relaxation and recharge in comfort. We cook our breakfast and dinners in house. We spend our days hiking in the mountains and evenings walking around the beautiful lake. So much to see and do within minutes of this location. The owners are very sweet and kind. We were able to chat with them for a few minutes this visit. We have stayed here multiple times and have reservations to come back. So blessed to have a retreat like this available!!!

Retreat by the lake!

We hiked daily in the beautiful Pisgah National Forest (they allow dogs) each day and at night came home to a comfortable, relaxing Lakeview for the evening! Also took a walk around the lake each day on a wonderful paved pathway. The house is fully equipped inside and a lake view patio outside as well as a sun room on the other side of the house with a different view of the lake. We have stayed here several times and will be back!

Awesome accomodations!

Great views, homey/relaxing environment and wonderful lake community close to the beautiful mountains! Hiked by day and walked the paved lake path each evening. Relaxed on the patio both in the morning with coffee and in the evening with husband and canine companion. Two family members joined us for a couple of days and loved sharing the experience with us. Got to meet the hosts who are very warm and friendly people! We have been there before and are going again.....
