He was always very helpful, kind, and quick to respond. The views of the property are also breathtaking. So enjoyed having coffee on the large covered porch and taking walks around the gorgeous neighborhood. ##### Brenna K.

Our group included our 3 adult children and grandparents. Great family time and the house easily handled our crowd with plenty of room to spread out. Great location, house was very clean, kitchen extremely well stocked, and comfortable.beds. Gorgeous views of the lake and mountains. Lots of fun swimming off the dock with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Kayaks and fishing poles were a plus. Owner very responsive. Thank you for sharing your lovely home. We will definitely be back! ##### Pamela M.

The inside of the house was actually nicer than the pictures display. Walk down to the lake is a little tricky, as others have said, but it's a small sacrifice for the view. There were only two of us, but the house can easily accommodate a family with kids or 2-3 couples. The guest book was a nice touch since previous visitors gave us some ideas of local adventures to seek out while there. Had one question for the host and it was answered very quickly. All in all, comfortable house for our visit! ##### Maureen W.

Plenty of room to spread out. About 30 minutes to Asheville. Very cool town Lots to see and Great Food,Outdoor music,Art Galleries We especially enjoyed the Pinball museum were you can play unlimited games for 15.00! Went hiking in Pisgah forest saw some beautiful waterfalls. Lake James was clean and great for swimming. Only Caution over 100 steps down to lake..pretty strenuous Not for young children or elderly and Wi-Fi was sketchy Apart from that Awesome house and Location ☺️ Bruce was quick to help with questions We had a great time!! ##### kathy t.

It was so nice. Very clean, well stocked kitchen. The shower in the master bathroom is amazing! It’s a steam shower and they designed it very well. The view is spectacular. The mountain is right in your face. It’s beautiful to see the mountains and the lake together. The homeowner is super nice and responds very quickly to messages. The owners have done a great job of letting the renter know all the sites to see and places to eat. The lake is super nice, very deep, and very clear. I would highly recommend staying at this house. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Larry S. 8 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Schwartz stay Everything was as advertised. We were a group of 6 adults in our 70's. Setting avaibality was not suitable, we had to use one of the dinning room chairs. Not the best comfort for watching TV. I would recommend a love seat in the main living room for additional seating. For groups who want to spend time together. Everything else was perfect. ##### Larry S. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ---
