truly special. Then cook out on the grill, sit on our log chairs on the deck and listen to nature
make it's way into the night.

Hike along the dirt roads

Perfect cabin, beautiful mountains!
We just got home from a week at the Cabin. None of us wanted to go home, the cabin was perfect. We even spent extra days just at the cabin and enjoying the Lake. Greg gave us very detailed instructions and answered any questions we had promptly! The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed and then some. The internet was a little slow, but we were just happy to have internet in the Mountains. We had a couple beautiful mountain storms come through. I think we might have lost power, but if we did it wasn't obvious because of the Generac generator. If you are planning a trip to NC this cabin is a must!

Beautiful house and location
The house was beautiful and had everything you needed to stay and enjoy the lake. The best part of everyday was sitting on the deck overlooking the lake and drinking coffee. The fire pit was a plus and would definitely recommend this house. We hope to be back soon,

Property was large and clean with amazing views of the lake and mountains. Greg was a pleasure to work with. At no fault of the owner, the property is a little difficult to access, there was road/underground utility construction, and a home renovation happening next door (Greg kindly notified us in advance). All in all a great experience and definitely a 5 star property.

Great house, beautiful view!
The layout of the house was great and we really enjoyed the large decks/porches where we spent hours enjoying the view and watching the birds at the feeders. The kitchen was well equipped which made meal making a pleasure. The hot tub was wonderful and larger than most we have seen at other rentals. Greg was a great host. He gave us all the info we needed for our stay at the house up front so we had an easy check in and stay. I would definitely stay here again when it is warmer to enjoy all the lake activities

Incredible Getaway
Couldn't ask for better scenery or property amenities, being tucked away in the mountains! The kayaks and paddle boards were MUCH appreciated. Views from the decks were one-of-a-kind, and the night sky totally captivating. The water is very clear and clean, and the fire pit was a nice touch and use of the outdoor space. I will note that for anyone with knee issues, this is probably not the easiest location for mobility, so please read through other reviews before determining if this is the right property for you. The property manager was very responsive, and provided helpful insight regarding our route to the cabin -- which would have had us on the Tail of the Dragon after a long day of travel (we did take this route back home, and while challenging, it was an awesome experience).

NC Mountain Stay
The cabin was beautiful and truly fully furnished. But I did not go to the mountains to be woken up at 7:15 every morning with screaming, hollering, and banging by the construction workers building a house 2 lots over. This went on until 5-6pm everyday. It made it unenjoyable to sit on porch for morning coffee or being on the dock and swimming around the cove.

Wonderful family time!
We spent Thanksgiving week at Serenity Cove. Our teen and young adult family members and their parents really enjoyed kayaking and exploring a small island in the lake. The fire pit was a big hit as well. Day trips to hike, and see waterfalls were fun even in the cold weather. I am sure the view from the decks at this lake house are beautiful year round. Would love to return in warm weather. Highly recommend, if you enjoy peace and quiet or are a thrill seeker. There is something for everyone to enjoy, both inside and outside the home!

Great Property and Owner
Can’t say enough about the property and the owner. The cabin was just what I wanted for my girlfriend’s 40th birthday get away. You are about 15 mins from a main road. You overlook the lake and at night it is just the sound of nature. We had some issues that the owner took care of promptly and we had great communication. Probably the cleanest VRBO/home stay I have had in a very long time. So many times it seems like the cleaning fee is an excuse to get extra money but in this place you can tell it is put to use. Things to know: Verizon service was 0. The WiFi is satellite so there are restrictions on downloads and streaming. I was able to work from the cabin over VPN but Teams meetings was a bit sketchy. The cabin is 1.5miles down a dirt road which if you have a low car can take some effort. The driveway is steep and cars will need some speed to get up it but we have a Malibu and I never worried it wasn’t going to make it after the first time. I highly recommend downloading the map of the area on Google. Take your time and read the road signs don’t rely completely on GPS.

Perfect!
My husband and I came here hoping to see the leaves doing their thing, while relaxing in what we hoped would be a pretty setting. We got more than we hoped for. Staying on the lake while still having the Mountain View’s was the best of both worlds. The home was lovely, the lake was beautiful and the area was quiet. We had a great stay.

Beautiful cabin
We truly enjoyed our fall break at this cabin! The lake is gorgeous. We took advantage of the kayaks and fire pit. The space was perfect for us with our 17 year old daughter and 9 year old son. They each had their own room which they loved. The view of the lake from every room and each balcony and the hot tub is perfection! We left a couple of times and went into Murphy for the River Walk and then Highlands for some shopping and lunch. Greg was super helpful with questions while we were there. Loved everything about it!

We stayed at this lake cabin for four nights and could not be happier with the accommodations. It is a beautiful clean home that feels like truly like a home.
