Mountain retreat
Great location over looking the lake. Plenty of room for our family. Nice to have spices and some basics in house especially since it was a short stay. The dishwasher could use a new lower rack. Didn’t have enough tines to hold dishes and they were being held together by zip ties. Otherwise it was lovely.

The best vacation ever
This home felt like home from the minute we arrived. Managers were helpful and responsive to all questions and helped us greatly with restaurant recommendations, activity planning, etc.
The covered porch was our station for much of the trip -- the view is incredible.

a house provides full of memories
Beautiful house with plenty of space for everyone! It's cozy and convenient. The most impressive part of this house is its kitchen. It literally has every utensils and cookwares we need, and the numbers of plates, dishes, glasses, mugs, woks etc are just more than one can imagine! We had a blast time in this lovely house.

Nothing better than Lake Toxaway NC in October
We had 5 couples in this beautiful home. We were very comfortable as we all had our own room. The back patio had plenty of chairs and an amazing view.
The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and pots and pans, though we could have used one more large deep pot.
We had a really good time. I would definitely come back. Our host, Karla was great. Very responsive to questions. A definite 5 star getaway.

Mountain wedding weekend
The house was absolutely stunning with high end furnishings. The town was so beautiful! We were attending a wedding at the Greystone inn and the location couldn’t have been more perfect- maybe a 2 minute drive? Karla was the best host, easy communication and so accommodating. The house had everything we needed, including nice linens/towels, toilet paper and trash bags! Would definitely recommend! Hope to visit Lake Toxaway again!

It was simply perfect !
The house became a part of my wedding experience with my family I had the best memory of sitting on the porch with my father having him tell me the story of my mother and his wedding but of how proud she would have been of me, all the while looking out into the mountains and lake . Magical to say the least and a warm home filled with love the moment you walk in.

We really enjoyed staying at Karla’s. We had a big group in town for a wedding and it was the perfect place to house a large group. The views were amazing, the house is spacious, it was clean when we arrived and check in and out were a breeze. Our only difficulty was getting the oven to work properly but we made due.
