Excellent Mountain Home with a Waterfall View

We've stayed in several mountain homes and cabins. Ron's is among the finest. The home is well-appointed, spacious, and well-equipped for large families and groups. It's in impeccable condition, including appliances and furnishings. Access is a short distance from the main area highway, yet the location is just "hidden" enough to make it very private. The views from the home's large windows include a beautiful cascading waterfall. Communication with Ron was instant; he even checked on us after we arrived to make sure everything exceeded our expectations (which they certainly did). Thank you Ron for the attention to detail!

Amazing Waterfall Views

We truly enjoyed your Lake Toxaway home!! It was very well designed, constructed , decorated and had the most beautiful views of the falls! Your kitchen was amazing and well stocked with cookware and utensils. The lower den/family room and gas fireplace hearth is where spent most of our time and it was wonderful. We ventured out to Gorges State Park, gem mining in Brevard and Moonshine Mountain Snow Tubing that all were great adventures. The home is very roomy for large families and lots of places to sneak away for a nap . The outdoor fire pit and hot tub were very easy to access. Highly reccommended!

Destination Toxaway Wedding

A spectacular home with an amazing view. Very comfortable guest areas and well equipped kitchen. Amazing view and great outdoor fireplace are just a few of the great features of this mountain home. Ron is an awesome host. Very informative and always available by cell phone or text. We hiked right out the back door, and the access road was not bad- a minivan could navigate it easily. I hope we can come back for another trip in summer. Thank you!

Gorgeous weekend

Our group of 9 thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was large enough to comfortably accommodate everyone. Beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and outside areas were outstanding. There were plenty of outside seating areas to eat and enjoy the fantastic scenery. We loved sitting under the stars at the fire pit, listening to great music and enjoying good conversation. The house was very clean. We’d love to return for another hiking weekend next fall.

Gorgeous view!

We had a really nice time staying here. It is large enough to spread out and have privacy or to be together and look at the beautiful view of the waterfall from the main room. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. Thank you Ron.

Fun for all

Two living areas, an outdoor fireplace and a hot tub made this a perfect house for adults and teenagers to enjoy the beautiful fall day and a view of the falls while catching some college football. Kitchen well stocked, beds very comfortable and the world's largest deck with lots of tables and chairs.

Family Fun

We were searching for a place big enough for 12, where our Ohio and NC families could meet for a long weekend. It was my husband and I, my 3 adult children and 2 spouses, and 5 grandchildren ages: 11,9,7,4 and 11 months. This home had plenty of room and was so beautiful. We enjoyed so many things: the outdoor fireplace, hot tub, foozball table, not to mention the beautiful view. It was a very short drive to the trail to Rainbow Falls. (This is a pretty strenuous hike!) Ron, the owner, called to check all was OK when we arrived and responded to texts when we had a question . The house was very well stocked with anything you might need. Thank you, Ron

Tennessee, Georgia and North Carolina Family Trip

The house worked really well for our family. It rained on us most of our stay. The covered deck and foosball table were really helpful in entertaining grandkids. Plenty of room for everyone. The outdoor fireplace was lovely and the kids enjoyed s’mores. The house is well equipped for basic kitchen needs.

Exceptional family house

We spent 7 days with 2 families in the house and we loved the space. With 3 levels, 2 living spaces, a huge deck and 4 bathrooms we were never in each others way. We have rented houses many times before and have never seen a kitchen so fully stocked, so many towels and the extensive outdoor seating options with cushions. Highly recommend this house for a larger group looking for a house with a view and hot tub!

Beautiful mountain home

This is a beautiful, well equipped mountain home with a great view of Toxaway Falls. Very responsive owner. The house has some close by neighbors, thus some typical “neighborhood” noise. However, most of that was drowned out by the sound of the falls.

Wedded Bliss!

This home is spectacular! The description and photos do not do it justice as in person! The deck view of the waterfall is simply breathtaking! We used this home as a home base of sorts for our wedding party, just our kids and grandkids and it was perfect! Spacious enough for everyone to get ready and the groom never saw the bride! You’re missing out on an amazing property if you go elsewhere! We will be back!

Great home with a beautiful view!

Our family stayed at this VRBO while attending a family wedding at Lake Toxaway. The home is large, beautiful, and the setting is gorgeous. It's a short drive (~10min) to the Greystone Lodge. We have stayed at many rental homes over the last decade or so and this is probably the best equipped one we have come across, it has everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, laundry, and for outdoor living on the deck! Our host was very attentive and responsive. I highly recommend this property!

Ahhhhhhhh!

What a fabulous vacation home! Our extended family of 9 arrived weary after 3 family units had just moved, and 3 individuals had just completed graduate school. The spectacular view, the highly equipped kitchen, the foosball & game tables, and the comfortable beds allowed us to gather and REST! Even though it rained most of all 5 days, no one complained because this home provided a vacation we all cherished. Thank you, Ron!!!

Wonderful!

We traveled with another family (4 adults, 7 children) and had an amazing experience. The owner communicates very well and provides detailed instructions for the home. The house is very well equipped and in a perfect location! We got stuck for an extra day because of a huge snowstorm and the owner was incredibly helpful and accommodating!

A wonderful Christmas.

Great spacious house for our group of 5 couples. Suitable for gathering together and plenty of areas for personal time away from others. Perfect house for a Christmas vacation. Wonderfully decorated for Christmas with Christmas dishes too. Well equipped kitchen for family cooking. Amazing view from spacious porches and comfortable yard. There are neighbors but It is very private. Hot tub worked perfect . The outdoor fireplace was closer to the house than it appears in the pictures which even better and convenient to the house and hot tub. Plenty of wood to burn. None of the spaces in the house felt like wasted space. Each area had its purpose and very comfortable. Ron was friendly and very helpful. We spent an entire week and enjoyed every minute in the house. Convenient to Cashiers and Brevard. Not a bad drive to Asheville. The Pisgah forest is beautiful. There is a fun and amazing restaurant less than 10 minutes from the house called Grand Olde Station in Lake Toxaway. It was perfect for what we needed. Thank you Ron!

Great stay - 5 stars

Great home, beautiful views, well equipped, close to some great hiking. 5 stars would absolutely recommend. We had a big group (8 adults & 3 kids) and everyone had space and privacy. Advice to renters - review the home arrival instructions thoroughly to make sure you get the house set up - for example, turning on water heater and water pump.

About the host

Hosted by Ronald Atkinson

We met as childhood sweethearts and have been married for over 40 plus years! During that time we raised six children. We retired and have close ties to the Washington, D.C. area where most of our children are still located.

Why they chose this property

My wife is originally from northwestern NC so building this beautiful home in western Carolina was a natural choice for us. We love the scenery and tranquility of the mountains and surrounding waterfalls.

What makes this property unique

When we bought this property years ago we had a vision to build a home that would be comfortable for our family. Later we decided to open our home to guests so they could enjoy the wonderful atmosphere and natures beauty are family so enjoyed.
