The cabin was clean and the owners made sure lights were on for our late arrival. We ate most meals on the large screened in porch with a great view of the lake and mountains. The location was an easy drive for apple picking at Mercer Orchards and Murphy. We will certainly look to stay here again in the future.

Our family, including my father, traveled to Fort Benning to watch our son graduate basic training and then spent a few days vacationing at the hilltop. The home itself exceeded what my expectations were and we all enjoyed our stay, The porch area was a family favorite to relax on, it our dinner on and the view was perfect from the porch. The kitchen was well stocked and the kids had a great time eating snores off if the fire pit. Mrs. Banks was always very helpful in answering all of my questions and was very accommodating. My father who has not traveled in 16 years is already talking about how he can go back! It was a great time for all of us ages 3 to 72!! ##### Alisa H.

Rented the second week of July 2018\. From the moment we entered we were blown away by how comfortable and charming we found the cabin. Pictures truly do not do it justice. The four bedrooms and three baths were a luxury with 8 adults and 3 children. Everyone had space and privacy if needed. The beds are all excellent. The whole cabin is stocked with everything you could need and more. The kitchen is perfect. The porch is the real highlight. Children played games on the table and the adults reveled in the evening views of the lake, the mountains, and the sunsets. So convenient also to the marina where we rented a pontoon for three days. The lake is pristine and it seemed at times if we were the only people on the water. One of the best vacations ever. We will be back! The Banks are so responsive and truly understand Southern hospitality. Our Georgia graduate kids didn’t even seem to mind that they are Alabama fans!!!! If you’re from Georgia you get that is truly high praise! Dennis and Susan Dorner, ATLANTA ##### Dennis D. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### carey s. 19 Jul 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Social Distancing July 2020: Rented this house to replace vacation to New York that was cancelled due to corona virus. We did a general search for accommodations in the mountains to get out of Florida heat. This house and its location was a perfect match. We wanted to be respectful to the people in North Carolina and stay in or near cabin, which was easy to accomplish. We brought food and drink for the week. (I think the grocery store is 25 miles or minutes away.) We brought a slow cooker (I did not notice one there, but also was not looking for one) so we wouldn't be spending a lot of time in the kitchen. We did rent a boat for 2 days on the lake and paddle boards, kayaks for a third day. The lake was gorgeous. The water was perfect: warm but refreshing. When not on the lake, we were on the porch of the house that overlooks the lake. It got warm in the afternoon for a short period but never felt too hot to be outside. There was a cabinet full of games and we brought some of our favorites from home. Before we knew it, the week was over. The house was beautiful and descriptions were accurate. Kitchen well appointed. Had plenty of paper goods and cleaning supplies. Beds were comfortable (we did have to bring our own blankets due to corona virus and we did use them at night). House was clean. The owner was very pleasant. We will definitely come back. ##### carey s.

The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we could have possibly needed. The porch had a beautiful view, but would have enjoyed it more if the outdoor heater had been working. Overall, very nice stay with great accomodations. ##### Randy E. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2021 ---
