Peaceful Lakefront Apartment
We absolutely enjoyed your place! Sharon and Anna were excellent host and very supportive! The apartment lacked nothing! It was so peaceful and relaxing! We loved the trail around the whole lake and walked it each day! The location is very convenient to anything you would like to do in the mountains! We have no problem recommending this AirBNB location or the host, Sharon and Anna! Thank you for a great few days!

Lake Life Upper Apt-2 min walk to Lk Junaluska ASM
Carolyn's place is very clean, safe, beautiful, and loaded with all anyone might need during a stay. The location and view are amazing! Carolyn is very responsive and friendly. I enjoyed my trip and cannot wait to go back!

Great place and great owners. Very responsive to our needs. I would highly recommend staying here.

Lakefront Condo Flat Rock N.C.
Great place to stay - a covered outdoor seating area with a great view is provided and the room is just as pictured. Very clean and quiet - just what we were looking for. We are very happy with our stay.

Casa Paz: Creekside Oasis in the Smoky Mountains
The place is very nice, from the creek to relax in front of or the hot tub to get into:) Our weekend started warm then went colder and the fireplace in the house gets the place warm. The area is quiet. We had two ducks going around feeding and getting ready to nest. An eagle flew through and tried to get the ducks, they dove a couple times and the eagle left to go fishing. The area is mostly free from the damages of Helene. Plenty of birds coming and going all day:)

Lakeside Joy-Magical Views, Peaceful Escape
The place was great! A picture perfect location and the hosts were very accessible and polite throughout our trip. I would highly recommend staying here. We loved it!

Quiet Riverfront Escape with Deck & Fly Fishing!
We will rent this house again and again! I honestly felt like I was in my house. We rent for the Masters Tournament in Augusta then go on a vacation somewhere. Cashiers is where I love to go in the mountains. This house has everything we love plus the sound from the river we listened to every where we were in the house. It’s heaven on earth!

Riverfront Escape | Sauna | Private Trails
Our stay was exceptional! The house was well appointed and beautiful. It had a comfortable, cozy feel and we settled right in like we were at home. The amenities were fantastic, as well! We loved the screened porch and gazebo! I thoroughly enjoyed having a cup of coffee on the porch listening to the birds and the river. The gazebo was awesome for hanging out with a glass of wine or beer and grilling while watching the water curl though the rocks. We truly appreciated all the suggestions of places to go and things to do in the area, too. It was so helpful on our first trip to Cashiers. I could go on and on about all the things we loved. It was the perfect place for us and we hope to return when it's warmer so we can spend even more time splashing in the river.

Serene Cabin Overlooking Trout Pond on 66 Acres
Beautiful property snuggled up on a little hill. Inside was very clean, fluffy towels & lots of items to use if you’re in a pinch; like seasonings! About a 20 minute ride to the Pisgah National Forest.

Luxury Airstream w/ hot tub, king bed, & grill
We had an unforgettable weekend getaway in Western North Carolina! The accommodations were perfect—clean, cozy, and well-stocked, with a relaxing hot tub and a great grill setup. The location was ideal, close to Brevard, Hendersonville, and Asheville, making day trips easy. We were just minutes from DuPont State Forest, where we hiked to stunning waterfalls and let the dogs enjoy the trails. There were also plenty of spots for fishing, tubing, and enjoying nature. It was peaceful, pet-friendly, and full of adventure. This escape had everything we needed for comfort and fun. We can’t wait to go back!

Whispering Forest - Luxury, Custom Mountain Cabin
Perfect stay for a couples retreat or families with older kids. Not sure I would recommend for families with young kids. The location is gorgeous & the house is lovely, but you should be prepared to get there and stay. Some of the things I would note are that there is no cell service at all & the wifi only really works inside the house, so put your gps directions in before you get in the car. There is a Keurig, and regular coffee maker, but they had a replacement carafe that didn’t fit properly, so we couldn’t use the regular coffee we brought with us. The hot tub was incredible with the view and the private lake access was great for a little swimming and picnic day. This property is perfect and very private and peaceful. I would say that the price is probably not worth it for me given that it’s a 30+min drive to even the closest gas station and about an hour to any activity. Be prepared to bring all your necessities or drive a long way. 4 wheel drive should definitely be required.

On the River Mountain Getaway
Very responsive host. Clean and comfortable lodging. Would recommend!
Waterfront condo rentals

Lake Keowee Resort Condo: Waterfront Balcony
We can not say enough about how wonderful our stay was! From the beautiful surroundings, lovely furnishings, and exceptional cleanliness, it was just about perfect. For our "sisters birthday getaway", it exceeded our expectations. Would definitely return to this property. Minor suggestion - a pitcher for making tea, more kitchen cup towels and some Kleenex would be nice. : )

Lakeront Keowee Condo W/ Amenities - 20min-Clemson
My husband and I stayed at the Lake side Keowee Condo the last week of August. The condo looks exactly like to pictures. Kitchen was beautiful and had all that you would need. There are 2 master bedrooms. One is an ensuite with sliding doors to a small balcony that had a table and chairs. You could see the lake from the balcony . We would have breakfast out here in the morning. The living room had beautiful bay windows which also had lake view. There is a large cabinet in the living room that was stocked with games. The living room also has 2 sets of bunk beds that were like Murphy beds and folded up. We were only 2 people but condo could easily accommodate 10 people. You could walk to the pool but the beach you needed to drive to. Keowee Key is a beautiful community. It was very quiet the week we were there but we were fine with that as we were looking for peaceful few days. We did not play golf but course looked beautiful. There is also a restaurant on property

Mill House Lodge King Creek Falls Condo
We had a great time! My kids loved going on the canoe in the pond. We also loved going to the pool after a day out apple picking and hiking. The mornings are also peaceful sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee listening to the waterfall.

Lake Fairfield Hideaway LOCATION, VIEWS PRICE
We enjoyed our stay at Kim's place. It was very convenient to our son's wedding venue on Lake Fairfield. The area is so beautiful and Kim's place was very clean, well appointed and updated. It was easy to find and easy to access per the directions. Kim was always responsive to any questions I had and the clear communication was appreciated. We would definitely book again.

Bear Lake Reserve * Stunning Condo with Lake Views
We booked last minute and by that, a day and a half before we arrived. Darlene responded within minutes and made arrival so easy with perfect directions/information. Darlene checked in with us during our visit and with the welcome packet Darlene sent us, I had minimal if any questions. The place exceeded our expectations and was so very close to the club and all the amenities. View was beyond! The only negative was we never saw a bear. 😂 We will be back!

Sapphire Valley Escape and view
William & Melissa were excellent hosts. They were very welcoming and helpful with suggesting local things to do. They were very responsive with any questions we had. Their space was also beautiful, well stocked and great for young kids.

LAKE FRONT Comfort ! Canoe Firepit Hike fish relax
Donna was very helpful and very very understanding of our circumstances . She accommodated us very well.

Creekside Getaway, Quiet Wooded Lot Close to Town
We had a great time and really enjoyed the backyard area and zipline. The space was very clean and all the small details were well thought out and appreciated. Would definitely stay again.
