Lake Santeetlah review

Property owners were super helpful and friendly! All was as pictured, and we loved being so close to the water. Easy to put our boat in right across the lake. We had a great stay!

This was a wonderful location for our ladies weekend. The space was perfect. Plenty of parking, seating and bedrooms. We spent most of our time on the covered porch and floating in the lake. Looking forward to returning.

Beautiful house in the water and close to everything

We had a fantastic stay at this rental! The house was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. There were four of us, but it easily could have accommodated double that without feeling crowded. It’s extremely well-equipped with everything we needed, and the hosts were friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with. Check-in was seamless, and the checkout process couldn’t have been simpler.We especially enjoyed relaxing by the cozy fireplace in the living room and spending time on the split-level deck, which offers beautiful views of the water. The location is also ideal—centrally located near the Tail of the Dragon and tons of other great riding routes and scenic spots.Highly recommend this place, and we’d definitely stay here again!

This house could not have been more perfect. Attention to detail, including very comfortable beds. We cooked all of our meals and found the kitchen well stocked with everything that we needed. Because the weather was so perfect during our stay, we spent the majority of our time on the deck with views of the lake, morning coffee, happy hour and meals. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Awesome deck

Had a family get together and the house was perfect. One big area we could all hang out and some separate areas to escape to also. We rented a boat and road around the most beautiful lake ! Decks were great I could live out there.

A Joyful Celebration

We rented the house in Lighthouse Cove to celebrate my son’s 10th birthday. We had 5 adults and 3 kids (ages 7, 7, and 10!). The hosts were gracious, kind and communicative. There were coloring books, games, grills and plenty of kayaks and canoes for us to paddle on the water every day. The rooms were spacious and beds were comfortable. We had a wonderful experience and hope to stay there again next year.

The house was clean and as listed. There is gorgeous view of the lake out the back. The hosts were easy to communicate with and responded quickly. My group had plenty of space to hang out at the house and not feel cramped. The back porch was nice and had a great view as well.The house is located in a quiet neighborhood that is only a short drive to the Tail of the Dragon as well as other local roads and attractions.This was not a problem for us, but a word of caution about the neighborhood street…it is a single-lane road that is very hilly and twisty, so it could difficult for a motorcycle or trailer, especially in bad weather. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and look forward to making our trip down here again soon!
