This was truly an amazing Thanksgiving away. The cabin was great! It clean and very accommodating for a family of 12\. Pictures simply cannot capture how beautiful the view was. The owners were great and very responsive with any questions we had. My family and I had an amazing time and will definitely return. ##### PHILLIP ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rochelle N. 21 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quiet cove Echo cabin was exactly as described. Fantastic lake views!! Fully stocked, great layout and easy lake access!! Cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed soaking up the view from the many porches, hot tub and the dock. Owners were very quick to respond to questions. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Rochelle N.

This house is beautiful, perfectly private, and packed with activities to do (inside the lodge and out). Our group of ten people ranged in ages from 1 to 75 and there was something for everyone! Our days were spent swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, playing cards/games, and enjoying meals together. We found the lodge very clean. I was impressed with how well stocked it was with essentials (not all are like that) and the "extras" which made our stay even more enjoyable (two baby gates which were a Godsend with the 1yo). Craig was very responsive and helpful. We cant wait to visit again. ##### Emily O.

The music was softly playing in the master bedroom lighting was on and it was chilled off nicely! And the view! Incredible!!!! We really enjoyed our stay and the owner texted us and communicated with us all week about things we were curious or recommendations needed. It was like texting a friend and very quick to respond. The lake was great food at marina was awesome as well as the staff. they delivered the rental boat right to dock as well as our friday night pizza!! Anyways Def would stay again The Lutz Family ##### STEVE L. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 6 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house for a family vacation! Echo Lake Lodge works really well for a group like ours -- tweens, teens, parents, and grandparents! The kids loved the cozy loft upstairs, where the bunks are, and also the great hang-out game room on the ground floor. The adults basically lived on the deck with the beautiful lake view. Nice big comfortable open living area to accommodate everyone at meals and for socializing, but there were also great nooks and crannies for slipping away with a book or for a nap. Great dock with an umbrella. Very typical Lake Nantahala caveats for those who haven't visited the lake before: driveways are gravel and very steep, as are steps and paths down to the water, but our grandparent-generation did fine at this house. Loved having the kayaks and canoe available. Host was very responsive, helpful, and friendly! Would definitely visit again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan G. 24 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Such a peaceful home in the serenity of Nantahala! We were visiting for my brother’s wedding and had such a lovely visit! The house easily accommodated our group of 7 (two small kids) and could have comfortably fit a handful more. The kitchen was well stocked, lounge areas very comfortable for nights hanging with the family, and bathrooms very suitable for all the work that goes into wedding prep :) The beds were very comfortable and everyone felt like they had great nights’ sleep—very needed after long travels from the West Coast! But perhaps above all of that was Craig’s communication and responsiveness. He was SO helpful and friendly. He truly made our trip. And make sure you listen to his advice on getting a 4WD for the steep gravel driveway! We went in early Nov and there was one drizzly day that our 2WD barely made it out. Thank you so much for the great stay! ##### Megan G.

This lovely abode offered everything one could possibly wish for in a peaceful lakeside retreat, making it an unforgettable experience that left lasting family memories. The first thing that captured our hearts was the breathtaking view of the lake. The home's strategic location allowed us to wake up every morning to the most stunning sunrise over the serene waters. Whether we were enjoying a cup of coffee on the deck or simply lounging in the living room, the captivating lake views were a constant source of tranquility and joy. One of the highlights of the property was the relaxing hot tub. After a day of exploring the surrounding nature or engaging in water activities, sinking into the warm waters of the hot tub was an absolute treat. It was the perfect way to unwind and share stories under the twinkling stars. Another delightful feature was the porch swing bed. Swinging gently, lulled by the lake's gentle breeze, was an experience that felt like pure bliss. It quickly became our go-to spot for afternoon naps or quiet moments with a good book. The lakeside fire pit area was an absolute hit with our entire family. We spent evenings gathered around the crackling fire, toasting marshmallows and making s'mores—a classic camping activity elevated to a whole new level of comfort and relaxation. The private dock with a ladder provided endless fun for our family. We had a blast swimming and playing in the clear waters of the lake. It was the ideal place for various water activities, from swimming to fishing, adding an extra layer of excitement to our vacation. Stepping inside the home was like entering a dream. The interior was beautifully decorated, striking a perfect balance between rustic charm and modern comfort. The attention to detail in the decor made us feel right at home. The living spaces were spacious, inviting, and filled with natural light, ensuring we always felt comfortable and at ease. Above all, the memories we made in this lovely home will be cherished for a lifetime. It provided the perfect setting for quality time with our family, fostering a sense of togetherness and happiness. We plan to return again, as this home is a hidden gem that we feel incredibly lucky to have discovered. Craig and Andrea are wonderful hosts. They go out of their way to make you feel at home. Best vacay ever in N.C.! ##### Dale ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alicias S. 8 Apr 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful remote home This was such a great place to get away with family.

It was nice getting away from electronics and focus on the surrounding nature. ##### Luis A.

Plenty of room and great porches and decks to gather together and enjoy the wonderful views. Everything was immaculate and well appointed. You are definitely staying in the mountains when vacationing here, but that is exactly what we wanted. Thanks for the hospitality. We were impressed and will be back! ##### Carlton ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lindsey P. 22 Jun 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Waterfront Escape This house was the perfect location with just the right amount of activities for multiple families. Both kids and adults enjoyed the wide assortment of games, hot tub, kayaking and boating on the lake, to relaxing around the beautiful outside sitting areas. It was extremely peaceful listening to the babbling brook at night while sitting around the campfire. We would definitely recommend this property with many hopes to stay here again! ##### Lindsey P.

We loved this place, beautiful! During the rainy season I’d recommend a heavy car or 4 wheel drive, the mountain is steep going up to get out. Also stock up on groceries an beverages the county is dry, grocery is a little far. Orher than that, it was amazing!!! ##### Cynthia F. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sonja M. 29 Dec 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Christmas 2020 in the mountains Our stay was absolutely amazing, the newly built cabin had everything our family needed for our stay. The view was absolutely amazing on the lake, and there were plenty of room for the entire family. We had a beautiful white Christmas this year, waking up looking across the lake with the snow lying on the hills was almost like living in a postcard, absolutely beautiful. My family and I would definitely love to come back in the summer. ##### Sonja M. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### DuNard C. 5 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lake Vacation Our entire group enjoyed very much being on the water. We rented a boat and spent much time enjoying being out on the water. Our group enjoyed the porch (especially Grandma and Grandpa). We had a great week. The property is very rural and do not want to talk about the driveway! ##### DuNard C.
