About this property

Our house is located in the mountains of the Lake Toxaway Estates Community. Lake Toxaway is the largest private lake in North Carolina, and situated in Transylvania County, the county with the most waterfalls in the U.S.!

Our five bedroom mountain home features three levels. It is newly decorated with two separate family rooms, both with fireplaces, large screen TVs, and their own decks. This provides the perfect escape for families, friends, or an intimate setting for two. The upstairs loft area also provides a relaxing getaway for reading, tv, or just hanging out.

We like to keep the number of guests in our home at six. The five bedrooms includes two master suites with king beds and adjoining private bathrooms on the main floor. In addition, there are three more bedrooms, and an additional two and half baths.

The main floor also has a bank of floor to ceiling windows with amazing views of the Western Carolina Mountains. This same view is also featured in the lower level. The kitchen is open to the living area and dining area.

With access to the lake, kayak and boat rentals, hiking, fishing, swimming in the lake and much more. A short ride outside of the Lake Toxaway community, you’ll find the delightful towns of Cashiers, Brevard, Sapphire, and the Highlands. In addition, it’s a 45 minute drive to Asheville with endless shops, resort areas, and cultural activities.

Thanksgiving visit

What an amazing, comfortable home! The five bedrooms are spacious and give everyone plenty of privacy. Amazing views in a world class neighborhood of Lake Toxaway, North Carolina. The hosts were most gracious all the way through the process, and we will definitely be back for another visit!

Summer vacation 2024

This house is beautiful, clean and comfortable. The host was wonderful, checking in by text to be sure we had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped, and all of the bathrooms had plenty of products as well. The whole family agrees this was one of our best vacations, and a lot of it had to do with the comfort of the house. The views from the porch are breathtaking!

Even better than the pictures!

This is one of those homes that takes your breath away for all the right reasons. Looking out at that stunning vista from the living room, bedrooms, kitchen, balcony - you name it - is heavenly. You feel like you’re on top of the world. The home was beautifully clean, with an extensive array of dinnerware, entertaining platters, baking needs (perfect after an afternoon picking blueberries!) plus spices, and condiments and bathroom soaps/shampoos etc. All the bathrooms were spotless. Communication with Elizabeth was excellent. She was quick to answer any queries and very helpful with recommendations for nearby hikes, restaurants, stores. My husband and I stayed with our 3 girls aged 3-7 and my parents who were visiting from Australia. They agreed that it was the most relaxing stay! We’ll be back!

Beautiful home

Our family was delighted with our wonderful stay in this property! We have done plenty of vacation rentals in the past, and I can honestly say this was the cleanest and most well-appointed house we have ever stayed in. There were plenty of towels. The sheets, beds and pillows were all great quality. The kitchen was well- stocked with dishes, cookware, and cooking basics. The house was immaculately clean, and the kitchen, baths, etc all seemed newly updated. The owners clearly put a lot of love into this property, and it shows. Thank you so much for making our holiday trip to visit family so pleasant and easy.

Better than Home

One can tell how much care and detail has been put into making this vacation home feel even better than home. All the bathrooms were supplied with extra details like make up wipes/cloths, magnifying mirrors, lotions/shampoos, etc. The kitchen has plenty of appliances and dish ware/silverware to entertain and cook as you would at home. The TV and entertainment center were easy to navigate and had lots of options to choose from. The home was very clean and decorated like pictures from a magazine! The views from this home are spectacular! When sitting on the deck and sipping my first morning coffee above the clouds and enjoying the sky blue-pink sunrise are unforgettable!! We stayed at the place for over 2 weeks and had a couple of friends/family join us periodically. The house is well laid out with plenty of space and bathrooms that each couple had their own space. No one wanted to leave. :-) I've stayed at a couple of VRBOs in different locations and this place is definitely the tops. You will not be disappointed in staying here and relaxing in the mountains.

Breathtaking views, luxurious living

Our second trip to this home & the moment we walk in, my wife says, “I remembered it was lovely, I had forgotten just how lovely.” The beds and linens were remarkably comfortable with plenty of excellent pillows. The entire home was very clean. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with everything we needed for cooking all our favorite Autumn meals. The mountain views were breathtaking and ever present from all the living spaces. The living spaces were big and comfortable with ample room for us to spread out & stretch after our daily hikes. Communication with Elizabeth was easy & welcomed from start to finish. We could not ask for more from a luxurious mountain retreat. This home and its location are truly a treasure. We can’t for wait for next time!

Fabulous!

This home was perfect for our book club's getaway to the mountains! We had an unforgettable weekend discussing books, watching movies, and eating great meals in the well-appointed kitchen. Each bedroom was lovely and luxurious, and at the same time, the house was extremely comfortable. We had many enjoyable conversations around the table and on upper deck -- and the mountain views were spectacular! Many thanks to Elizabeth and John for a fantastic stay!

Wonderful Mountain Getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at this mountain house! The views were amazing, the house was perfect, and we could not have asked for a better weekend! Elizabeth was great in communication leading up to and during our trip. The house was charming! It had great views, lovely decor and a cozy element that was perfect for a relaxing getaway in the mountains. Charm aside, the house layout was ideal and very functional- it had everything you could think (including motion sensor lights outside for if we arrived back after dark, very well equipped kitchen, cozy blankets, grill, you name it!). Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the house, views and sipping wine by the fire! We hope to visit again!
