About this property

Lakefront Cabin with private Dock - 4 Kayaks - WiFi - Direct TV


  • Come and experience the magnificent magic of a waterfront cabin with your own dock right in the Western North Carolina's Smoky Mountains! The southern exposure will ensure bright warm sunny days and a beautiful view of the sunset in the evenings. The lake has numerous waterfalls and you can rent different watercraft at a marina nearby to explore the lake or enjoy different water sports.

    Visit the traditional, quaint nearby towns of Highlands and Cashiers while staying on the lake. Lake Glenville at 3800 feet elevation has 26 miles of shoreline, is 4.5 miles long and over 1,460 acres is spring fed by 5 mountain streams. You can enjoy the refreshing 72 degree water while jet skiing, tubing, fishing and boating. The glistening shoreline of Lake Glenville has waterfalls, a Christmas tree farm, and beautiful picturesque homes.

    This waterfront, A-frame vacation cabin has the master bedroom (with a extremely comfortable king size bed) and bath downstairs. Upstairs in the oversized loft are 2 twin beds and king bed and a full second private bath.

    You can take your steaming, hot coffee outside in the screened-in porch to curl up with a good book or go out on the large, adjacent deck to enjoy the view. The cabin has a fireplace, wireless internet, Direct TV and all the amenities of home.

    The dock will provide hours of entertainment. You can bring your own boat or rent one from the nearby marina and step right from your dock onto your boat. The are jet ski davits to hook up your jetski. We even provide two kayaks on the dock for your use.

The cabin was perfect for our father/son getaway. The boys enjoyed kayaking and swimming from the dock. The screened porch was a perfect place for all of our meals, especially eating dinner while watching the sunset. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed.

The lake view was gorgeous. We just stayed the wrong time. The weather was too cold and windy to enjoy the time there. Just our luck it decided to snow while there. The lake looked amazing though.

What a great time at this comfortable cozy cabin perched up the hill from the lake. BEAUTIFUL views of the lake inside and out. We greatly enjoyed our time and will be back. Beds were very comfortable and kitchen greatly supplied. Close to everything Cashiers and Highlands but away from the traffic. We will be back !

Adorable home nestled in the mountains

This home was amazing! We were in town for a wedding. The location was perfect, secluded, yet close to beautiful hikes, waterfalls, and quaint towns. The view from the porch is unbeatable! The house was clean and well stocked with anything we could’ve needed. Thank you!! We will be back.

lovely lakeside retreat

home was as advertised, well supplied, spacious and comfortable. It is a rather steep path from house to lake and renters should be aware of the challenge presented to very young children, elderly or those with a physical disability or in poor health

Summer getaway

Loved the house and location. Good outdoor spaces as well as indoors. Comfortable beds. Beautiful lake. Enjoyed the kayaks. Only downside was the long stairway to the dock. Some of us older folks struggled a bit but we knew this before we rented. Good exercise, right?

Stayed over Thanksgiving break 2025. Best family trip ever! Cabin has everything you need. Hosts were gracious to have heat on when we arrived and firewood stocked. We took full advantage of the fireplace round the clock while we were there in 30 degree weather. Grabbed a great steak for the grill from Meat and Fish in Cashiers. Ate at Happ’s and The Local.Rode horses at Arrowmont. Hiked High Falls. Fished the dock- fished the public access from the cabin up to Tuckasegee. Cut down a Christmas tree at the farm across the road. Couldn’t have asked for better. Coffee drinkers: no filters necessary! Mesh filter in coffee maker. I recommend the Pisgah Roasters ground coffee you can find in town. Yes the steps are a lot but they didn’t stop us at all. We drove in a 4x4 diesel and the driveway pull in was tight- tip: go to the second driveway entrance and make a 2-3 point turn in.

Fun lake times

This was my husband and I second stay at this property and once again it did not disappoint. It’s a beautiful cabin with an amazing Lake view, and we love the lake access because we have dogs and there are stairs into the water, which is perfect for getting them in and out we spent hours at the lake every day and we can’t wait to go back next year. The only downside as a dog owner that I can see is the yard space is a very steep incline so walking around the neighborhood is a better bet But that gives you great exercise on those hills so that’s a win-win :-) Deborah is very responsive and the access to kayaks is very kind

Clean and beautiful

The property was the cleanest we have had, which is saying something because we use Vrbo all the time and because being in the middle of the woods, one is likely to bring in dirt. Also, they had the sharpest knives of any kitchen we have used. I really appreciated that. It was a beautiful view, too. The house was really well-stocked with supplies. The steps are very steep, and I did slip one time, so be careful, but everything was great. Awesome, awesome week!!

Great Mountain Getaway

The house was great, just what you'd expect for that mountain cabin experience. Clean and everything needed to be comfortable. Easy access to Cashiers, Highlands and Sylva, we hit them all and Happs Place is about a mile away, great food, drinks and 3 season room with a fireplace that opens to an outdoor area. Friday night they had a band on the outdoor stage. The access to the lake from the house includes 177 stairs, yes we counted, not ideal for small children or elderly. The lake is very clean, would have liked to see the 3 waterfalls visible from the lake but the marina wasn't renting boats for the weekend, probably because it was October and the high 30s morning temps discouraged taking the kayaks out. Overall a wonderful stay.

Fabulous Views and Relaxation

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful Lakefront Cabin. It is a slice of heaven! The views were amazing and the house itself was very comfortable and relaxing. The decor was perfect for a lake retreat. It was very nice having both a screened in porch and the balcony to relax and enjoy the views. The master bed was very comfortable. We also very much enjoyed the wood burning fireplace and had plenty of firewood supplied for us. Having the dock with kayaks was an added bonus. The location of the cabin was perfect as it is in the middle of several neat towns and waterfalls. You can even head up to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and do the railroad trip in Bryson City. Debra was a great host and very easy to communicate with. She answered any questions we had immediately. We would definitely recommend this cabin and plan to come back one day. Thanks for everything Debra and Mark!
