About this property

Your dream of vacationing on a private island in the middle of a majestic mountain lake is a reality with this property. The 5 bedroom 3 bath 2 half bath home is located on the Southern facing shore of Buck Knob Island in the middle of Lake Glenville. This property conveys the feeling of secluded living, while remaining completely accessible and convenient to the mainland and nearby town of Cashiers. Once in Cashiers the drive to the landing is very easy with no winding roads. The 5-minute, boat ride is what makes this community unlike any neighborhood or club in the mountains. No cars, no traffic, just walking and nature on Buck Knob. The home was custom designed for mountain/lake life. The large great room arches support the beautiful cathedral ceiling. It is a stunning architectural element not to be missed. The spacious open layout allows for easy flow between indoor and outdoor living, with two indoor and one outdoor fireplace. The master bedroom on the first floor is spacious, with beautiful views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Two guest bedrooms upstairs offer guests privacy and plenty of room to enjoy their mountain experience. On the lower level, the bonus room is set up as the ultimate game room. A pool table, shuffleboard table, dartboard and huge television all create a recreational dream for the kids or the kids-at-heart. Two additional sunny guest suites downstairs provide more privacy for your friends & family. The outside of this home is as beautiful as the inside. There is a walking trail that circles the island.

We can provide you with a contact to directly rent a pontoon from. You are welcome to bring your own boat as well. The lake offers day cruises, tubing, waterskiing, fishing, or just hanging out at one of the three waterfalls feeding the lake. Get to shore to roam the beautiful towns of Cashiers and Highlands or take short drives to several beautiful hiking trails close by.

The house offers a hot tub, washer/dryer, full kitchen, 5 bedrooms, 3 baths and 2 half baths.

Weeks run from Sunday to Sunday with a seven day minimum. We do have a 10 person maximum for the home.

Wow…just WOW

We have stayed for many years in and around the Casheirs area, and this incredible place is by far the most unique experience we have had!!! The home and property are SPECTACULAR. So well appointed, luxurious, comfortable…just jaw-dropping. It’s like staying at your own private resort. This is not a typical mountain/lake home—it is truly on another level! Don’t be afraid of being on an island. The manager, Danny, is so incredibly helpful and accommodating. He really made all transportation and logistics seamless and easy. Danette, the host, was so responsive, flexible, and just overall wonderful. I can’t say enough good things about her, Danny, and this awesome home. We had a very special time on the lake, and hope we can visit again soon!

beautiful, unique vacation spot

Home and island setting are beautiful. Easy in and easy out, thanks to Danny. We also rented a pontoon for the week for recreation and for trips to the "mainland".
