Gorgeous Mountain Home - Lakefront Property
Come enjoy this luxurious lodge on Lake Santeetlah with over 90 miles of coastline nestled in the protected Nantahala National Forest. Swim off your private dock, water ski or fish for trout and bass, ride horses, explore the nearby trails of the Smokey Mountains, Joyce Kilmer Park or the Appalachian Trail. This remote home offers fabulous lake views from almost all rooms, a gourmet eat-in kitchen, 2 master bedrooms, 2 guest rooms, 2 large living areas, 3 fireplaces, 3 outside wood decks, a sun/office room and a library room.
Every season in the Smokey Mountains is beautiful, serene and Lake Santeetlah is still pristine and uncrowded. Boat, kayak, jet ski, or camp on the lake surrounded by the marvelous mountains. The nearby Tail of the Dragon-311 turns in 11 miles with wide open vistas- is paradise for serious motorcycle enthusiasts and car clubs. Ashville, the Biltmore Estate and snow skiing are just over one hour away. Even closer are the Ocoee, Cheowa and Nantahellah Rivers perfect for all levels of white water rafting

About the host
Hosted by Raul Echarte
We are a retired married couple from the busy city of Miami, Fl and enjoy the peace and tranquility that this house provides for us.
Why they chose this property
One of the main reasons why we chose to buy is because of the national preserve in front of the house. The view that you see will never change; so you have no worries of any other houses destroying your gorgeous outdoors views.
What makes this property unique
Being right on the lake is very nice and convenient. We park the boat on the dock and its ready to go in the morning no dealing with the dock master. just in the boat and out to enjoy the beautiful lake.
