The best part was it was decorated for Christmas with a tree and stockings hung on the fireplace. It was the perfect place for my family to enjoy Christmas and get some well-deserved downtime. The hosts were easy to work with and communicated very well. I would highly recommend this cabin. We can't wait to go back in the summer! ##### Michelle D. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### steve w. 12 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Serene. Beautiful views. Incredible star gazing. Lazy Elk is 4-5 miles from the nearest through road. The last two miles are on a well maintained gravel driveway. This guarantees privacy and quiet. We spent hours on the deck without hearing a man made sound (except for occasional hot tub and air conditioning). At night we counted satellites and watched shooting stars. Mornings we watched the clouds form and rise right in front of us. At first we had trouble slowing down to natures pace but by the end of our stay we were ready for another week. The dock is fun but it is a steep winding trail to get there. The ATV is a must. The only negative is it does takes a while to get to hiking trails. We hiked Lake Santeela Lake Nantahala and various hikes in the Smokey Mountains and it was always 45-75 minutes. Bryson City is about 45 minutes away. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/747e1a93-8a85-43fe-9071-d3e278e3d170-1757698641790.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/16866f9a-d99a-4435-b5e4-99268868a8af-1757698661199.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### steve w.

There is everything you could hope for and more right there-gas fire pit, pool table, ladder golf, dinner table, hot tub, and more with a swing set a few steps below. Kids and adults all had something to do! We enjoyed our days on the large dock and kids loved the water slide. 10/10 would recommend-we loved our stay! ##### Michael H.

It is remote and that's what we like about it. ATV provided for trip down to the dock and we rented owner's pontoon boat which was so much fun. The view cannot be beat, pool table a plus, we cooked all our meals and did not lack for anything. Owners are very responsive and a plumbing problem was fixed same day as call made. Comfy beds and plenty of room for all to spread out. ##### Marjorie D.

Enjoyed our walks on the trails, trips to the private dock area, relaxing in the hot tub and playing pool. Very secluded. Loved the view of the Lake. Definitely planing a trip back ##### Robert S.

What a wonderful home!! Stunning views, great location/dock for all sorts of water activities (really enjoyed the kayaking), and the house had everything you could possibly want. Plus the host is amazing! Had the place decked out for my sister’s birthday celebration - what a warm and welcoming surprise. And the host (Amy) was incredibly helpful and accommodating. Thank you Amy for everything! Hope to get back again soon. ##### Patricia O.

Off the beaten path you are assured of peace and quiet. The cabin was well stocked with kitchen equipment, paper and cleaning supplies and more than enough entertainment to keep teenagers away from their iPhones for the majority of the days/nights. The views from the cabin and dock area are breathtaking! The pontoon boat, kayaks and water slide were a huge hit for our group and the hike back and forth from the cabin to the dock was plenty of exercise. We will be back! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [The Beacon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Morehead-City-Hotels-Salter-Path-Inn.h10655047.Hotel-Information) > - [Travelodge by Wyndham Winchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Winchester-Hotels-Travelodge-By-Wyndham-Winchester.h9600.Hotel-Information) > - [Lighthouse View Oceanfront Lodging](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Buxton-Hotels-Lighthouse-View-Oceanfront-Lodging.h13278801.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyatt Place Chapel Hill / Southern Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chapel-Hill-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Chapel-Hill-Southern-Village.h16543920.Hotel-Information) > - [Tesla MedBed Center, East Dubuque](https://www.expedia.co.uk/East-Dubuque-Hotels-Tesla-MedBed-Center.h1076011.Hotel-Information) > - [Folkestone Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cherokee-Hotels-Folkestone-Inn.h1551198.Hotel-Information) > - [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Price by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Price-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Price.h9253345.Hotel-Information) > - [Scandinavian Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sister-Bay-Hotels-Scandinavian-Lodge.h16603450.Hotel-Information) > - [Baymont by Wyndham Mishawaka South Bend Area](https://www.expedia.co.uk/South-Bend-Hotels-Baymont-By-Wyndham-Mishawaka-South-Bend-Area.h1976.Hotel-Information) > - [Days Inn and Suites by Wyndham Oxford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Henderson-Hotels-Days-Inn-And-Suites-By-Wyndham-Oxford.h15792345.Hotel-Information) > - [Relaxing, Cozy, Beautiful 3 BR Log Cabin in Blowing Rock/Boone NC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boone-Hotels-Relaxing.h33311517.Hotel-Information) > - [Hilton Garden Inn Outer Banks/Kitty Hawk](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kitty-Hawk-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Outer-BanksKitty-Hawk.h1445722.Hotel-Information) > - [Trailborn Surf and Sound, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wilmington-Hotels-Blockade-Runner-Beach-Resort.h15691.Hotel-Information) > - [Holiday Inn Express Plymouth by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Plymouth-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Plymouth.h662090.Hotel-Information) > - [The View Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kayenta-Hotels-The-View-Hotel.h59418009.Hotel-Information) > - [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Salisbury by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salisbury-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Salisbury.h14769213.Hotel-Information) > - [Riverside Log Cabins](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boone-Hotels-Riverside-Log-Cabins.h22870419.Hotel-Information) > - [American Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hickory-Hotels-American-Motel.h15676263.Hotel-Information) > - [A View for Two: Tiny House with BIG VIEWS](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fleetwood-Hotels-A-View-For-Two-Tiny-House-With-BIG-Views.h46979075.Hotel-Information) > - [Asheville-Million Dollar Views, Hot Tub, Theatre Room, Billiards, Sleeps 16](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Asheville-Hotels-Asheville-Million-Dollar-Views.h33570667.Hotel-Information) > - [Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cherokee-Hotels-Harrahs-Cherokee-Casino-Resort.h13319510.Hotel-Information) > - [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Southport - Oak Island Area by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bolivia-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Southport-Oak-Island-Area.h8282528.Hotel-Information) > - [LOG CABIN + MOUNTAIN VIEWS!
