Quiet Mountaintop Vista w/ Hot tub and Fire pit

Come escape to this newly-renovated 2/2, minutes from Morganton, Lake James, several breweries and wineries, a wedding venue and all the hiking and other outdoor activities in the state park the property backs up against.
The house boasts every modern comfort you would need to work or play if you don’t want to unplug, but this house was meant to be enjoyed outdoors. The hot tub, screened porch, and fire-pit offer the perfect setting to enjoy the tranquility this house provides.

Rest and Relaxation
My girlfriend and I loved this cottage and the view was amazing! We spent 99% of the time on the back porch. Enjoyed the clear days and watching the rain roll through the valley. There is some other cottages around, but you won’t even notice they are there. The owner did a great job with modernizing the cottage, but keeping a mountain cottage feel. Morganton has many parks with great trails, waterfalls and views. Visit Lake James…beautiful lake with kayaking available. We hope to return next year! Owner was very responsive for any questions. We were looking for a romantic and fun getaway…mission accomplished!

We were really impressed with the placed and loved the screened in porch, where we spent most of our time. It is a drive up the mountain but worth it. Would stay there again!

Great View but No Water / Service Issues
The view was amazing. We didn't have any water the final night of our stay and the next morning until around 9AM. Rather than allow us the time to finish our damp laundry, and take showers the next morning, we felt extremely rushed to get out of the house. They seemed more interested in making money for the next customer rather than making the current customer happy. Apparently, water issues are a repetive problem with this property. I would not stay again.

Mountain Gem
Our family of 4 stayed here for the weekend surrounding our daughter's graduation from NCSSM in Morganton. It was fantastic! The views are incredible. This house is 25 minutes up the mountain and it is so worth it. Go slow and enjoy the local flora and fauna. We saw turkeys multiple times, including a family with babies! Our mornings on the screened in porch were delightful with the view and the sounds of so many birds. The house was clean and well stocked with linens and plenty of all the things you would need for a stay (dishwasher pods, trash bags, laundry detergent, hand soaps, etc). Beds were comfortable. If you're planning to cook meals, bring any special utensils/cookware/spices you would want. There are towels provided for the hot tub as well as an awesome shuffleboard table. Smart tv and games and puzzles available too. The arcade was super fun and we enjoyed showing our girls some classic games. Online guidebook answered any questions we had and made it all super easy. Highly recommend!

Heavenly views of the mountains!!
The view from the back deck is absolutely breathtaking, especially from the hot tub at sunset!!! I recommend grabbing all your groceries before heading up the mountain to the rental- it’s roughly a 15 minute drive on paved switchbacks to get up there, so not conducive to “running to the store real quick” for any forgotten items! :-) We ran into an unfortunate issue that forced us to leave a day earlier than planned, but the host was more than gracious and fair and worked with us to ensure we were happy with the experience despite the setback. Enjoy the peaceful retreat!!

Breathtaking view
We had an absolutely amazing experience during our stay at this rental. The breathtaking view of the mountains and the captivating sunset left us in awe every single minute. We took full advantage of the beautiful surroundings by having our breakfast, lunch, and dinner outdoors, immersing ourselves in the stunning scenery. The jacuzzi was a fantastic bonus that added another layer of relaxation to our stay. Without a doubt, we cannot wait to return to this extraordinary rental in the future.

High above the clouds
The house is adorable, clean and the view takes the cake. My family had a blast. The hot tub and fire pit are perfectly placed for max view of the valley, and of course the Smokey mountains and lake James. The only thing I wished I would have know was that there was no drip coffee maker. Had I had known I would have brought my little French press. There was 4 K- Cups and a small machine, but had I known there were only 4 I could have prepared to add them to my shopping list before hand. Coffee on the porch was something I was very much looking forward to. Otherwise this place is perfect!

Would stay here again
Our stay at the house was perfect for our family of five. The three bedrooms allowed everyone to have their space, the hot tub was relaxing after a day of adventure, the fire pit was a good spot for conversation and the views at sunset were breath taking. I would highly recommend this location.

Breathtaking views all the way from the tippy top of the mountain!!
You will literally die when you arrive bc the view is beyond amazing and the fact that the backyard faces the sunset seems unreal. The house inside is set up perfectly and everything has been updated! We never used the fireplace bc it was warm enough with the heat on. The arcade has 5,000 games from your childhood- things you haven’t played in decades!! The shuffleboard in the living room is a perfect added touch! Make sure you make plans to be at the house every night for sunset- we changed our plans two of the nights to do just that! There’s plenty to do in state park that the house backs onto and a Morganton is a cute little western nc town with great shops and food. Sarah was a dream and we’re so thankful she found this property to take care of and share! We’ll be back for sure!!

Touch the clouds from the hot tub!
Stayed for five days, property manager was very responsive with our questions. Beautiful location, adventurous 20 minutes up paved mountain road, didn't need four wheel drive, our rental van did just fine, worth the distance every time we came home to immaculate sunset views for days. Beds comfy, and they included both regular bath towels and beach towels for the hot tub, with handy laundry right on site. Campfire and hot tub awesome, satellite and smart tv for tech, but preferred quiet reading, games, or puzzles. Gas fireplace wasn't working first week of October but the nest does both heating and cooling so we didn't need it. Also included plates, cups, silverware, utensils, pots and pans, toaster and kureig, super helpful. Flew into Charlotte and then onto Asheville, but if I had to plan it again would drive straight from Charlotte airport. Great hiking in the area.

Great Girl's Weekend Getaway
The property was as described, the kitchen was well stocked. and beds were very comfortable. The view from the deck was absolutely amazing. We were disappointed there is no dishwasher and the refrigerator does not have an ice maker. As the host stated, make sure you have everything you need before you make your way up the mountain, it is a full 30 minutes back down! Overall, we were very pleased and would recommend this property/

The property and location of the home is beautiful. Inside is new with a lot of perks to keep our family of 5 busy including a hot tub, shuffleboard, arcade game and more.
