Good house, good amenities. Great to have a direct access to the dock from the garden. However the AC does not run in every room (no AC in the room upstairs). The communication was great. Checking process could have been a little better but ended up working well. Overall, good house but slightly overpriced, I would recommend with house regardless.

Great stay at the lake house

We all had a great time! There were 11 of us (6 adults, 5 kids (8-13) and there was plenty of space for everyone to sleep and spread out. The location was great! We spent a lot of time hiking and ate at some great restaurants in Cashiers/Highlands. I would definitely recommend this house to large families. Thanks for a great stay!

beautiful family retreat

This home is just perfect for a holiday get away. We enjoyed it so much. The house is beautifully renovated - and decorated nicely. It is well equipped with a full kitchen and plenty of bedrooms. Carl, the caretaker was very friendly and did a great job giving us a lay of the land - without being overbearing.

Fabulous lake house, felt right at home

Beautiful home on great piece of property, directly on Lake Glenville for ample swimming, boating, kayaking, and lounging. We loved the outdoor fire pit each night roasting marshmallows and enjoying the cooler evening air. Would definitely stay again given all the activities you can do right on the property, and the nicely appointed home.

Lovely lake house

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Sinclair lake house. The downstairs is perfect for kids...lots of beds and a kitchenette available for snack/drink runs. The lake is right out the back door, nice fire pit, lovely screened porch amongst other outdoor decks, ping pong table...good fun for everyone.
