About this property

Private and Secluded Lake Glenville Waterfront Luxury Home

Our lakefront mountain home is the perfect family vacation destination or for a weekend getaway with friends. Ideally situated on almost two acres of gently sloping land on Lake Glenville near the mountain resort villages of Cashiers and Highlands. Surrounded by the Smoky Mountains, Lake Glenville’s 26-mile shoreline meanders past forests, pastures, waterfalls and world-class golf courses. Warm days and cool nights are almost assured on this high-elevation mountain lake.

The Lakehouse’s 200+ feet of shoreline, provides ample space to enjoy swimming, use of our private boat dock (equipped with canoe and 4 kayaks) or relaxing on the sun terrace overlooking the lake.

The use of native materials and local craftsmanship throughout the 4,700 sq. ft. lake house makes it a true luxurious mountain lodge. Features include spectacular lake views, wrap-around porches with rocking chairs and outdoor grill, generous sitting and dining areas, quiet reading nooks, two massive stone fireplaces, antique heart-pine floors and a soaring, beamed ceiling in the main salon. Furnishings are a comfortable blend of antiques, rustic and overstuffed pieces. Modern conveniences include a fully equipped gourmet kitchen with granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances, king-sized beds, oversized tubs, fully equipped laundry room, DVD collection, gigabit speed wireless Internet access and unlimited nationwide long distance.

Great time at Katie Camp!

Was fabulous! Lake house is awesome, great kitchen space, also very well stocked- beautiful water views, fun yard for kids to run around. Rented a boat from signal ridge which was also very easy. Already planning our next trip! Owner so helpful and communicative. Comfortably slept 3 adults couples, one grandpa and 3 kids under 3!

Nice place

We really liked this place. All king sized beds, so not ideal for many kids, but our girls doubled up and we made it work. The kitchen was nice and the porch was great because it didn’t have stairs, so the kids couldn’t run away! My one complaint was that it is a long haul to cashiers and highlands from this spot on the lake.

Our 4th year & 4th house at Lake Glenville for family vacation

Our family loved this house. Kitchen was fabulous with everything you could possibly need. The dining rom table was the greatest. Fans in every room. Lots of lake toys, loved the kayaks. We brought our own paddle boards. Dock was perfect for two boats and our patio umbrella and table for snacks. Good location on the lake. We had plenty of parking for 6 cars.

Beautiful/Comfortable Stay

Katie Camp was absolutely perfect! The home was so inviting. Each bedroom was spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The rockers on both levels were so nice to enjoy the view out to the water and to be able to utilize all of the screen doors was a plus too. The walk to the water is very gradual with steps and a well defined path of mulch! The kitchen was so well stocked and wasn’t lacking for any need you had (from pots and pans to dish towels to cutting boards to dinnerware). Overall, we would definitely stay here again and was such a cozy, well appointed home.

Heavenly Home on Lake Glenville

Every single aspect of this beautiful home and peaceful property was outstanding! The home itself was wonderful - so comfortable and immaculate! One of the cleanest VRBO homes we've been in. The owners' attention to all details and accommodations were really well thought out and helped to provide an amazing experience. Loved all the unique furniture, along with the coziness of the rooms & fireplaces. The home perfectly provided comfort & privacy along with wonderful common areas. The view was spectacular! Loved that it was an easy walk down to the shore & dock. Enjoyed sitting lakeside with the firepit roaring. Exceptional home, accommodations, view and communications. Highly recommend this amazing home - there is no way you can be disappointed with any aspect of it.

Great week at Katie Camp

We had a great family reunion at Katie Camp. House was so nice in ways we did not expect. The big round table was great for conversation during meals. Large kitchen and very large island table accommodated food prep and serving. We had up to 10 in rocking chairs on the porch enjoying the view, reading books and sharing conversation. There are 4 kayaks and 1 canoe so all can participate in water adventures. In hindsight we would put the early risers in the bedroom below the kitchen. Internet is barely usable by a large group, but we staged our usage and got by. The cool mountain air and nice accommodations left us refreshed.

Annual family vacation

We are Katie Camp fans! Three generations (all adult) of our family just completed a week at Lake Glenville. Our second year at Katie Camp. There is lots of room for parking and the dining room table is fabulour! The house is such so perfect – the layout is wonderful, each bedroom has a King bed (very comfortable), well-appointed kitchen, lake facing porches loaded with rocking chairs, and charming furnishings. The water toys provided are great. We used the kayaks all week. There is a massive basket of beach towels right by the lake side door. Dock is wonderful for sitting, docking boat and wave runner and tying up kayaks and paddleboards. Our younger generation had a wonderful bonfire in the firepit one night and loved their evening by the fire and by the lake. We have only one complaint – our July week in 2023 is already booked – we are so sad!!

Very Nice Clean Property, Excellent Porch

Great stay! The porches are amazing. The house seemed brand new, even though it was over 20 years old. The construction is impeccable. No mold or mildew smells. Even floors. They looked amazing too and are perfectly level. Probably the cleanest house I’ve rented. Just a perfect build and well maintained. It is a bit remote and the wifi and cell service is nearly nonexistent. The dock is a bit sketchy because the water level was low for August, so the walkway was tilted about 30 degrees which was hard for my father. I have a 25’ inboard boat and it was workable but if the water was any lower I wouldn’t have been able to park there (1’ of clearance from prop to lake bottom) It’s a bit tight to get into and out of because the neighbors dock juts out and is very stressful. I’d imagine it wouldn’t be doable off-season. If they could extend the dock out that would be perfect but it probably works out for most and would be a non issue for a pontoon and most outboards. Also the air conditioning didn’t work great, especially the bottom floor. The walk to the dock is gentle, but it’s a mix of dirt, uneven stones, mulch and grass, so that was more challenging than expected. Overall it was worth the price for the build quality, the covered porch with water views, and the cleanliness. I’d stay again.

Excellent comms by host. Lovely home! Great location. Very well kept. Very clean. Access to canoes and kayaks was nice. Access to towns and college nearby. The lake is beautiful. A bear ran through the yard while we were out on the dock—cool experience! The cleaning people did show up a little before our checkout and we felt a little pressured. Still, a full 5 stars. We would stay there again!

We’ve stayed before and had a wonderful time then. Even better the second time with the updates made to the home. We had a Wi-Fi outage from Wednesday until we left Saturday, but that turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Coffee on the porch, swimming and other fun stuff on the lake, fire down by the water in the evening, star gazing, everything we wanted and more. Well equipped with everything we needed. Great vacation. I wish we could just live here!

Family gathering for our 50th Anniversary

The home was perfect for our group. Our 2 sons, their wives and 2 children each. Five bedrooms, 5 king sized beds. Everyone had their space and privacy and comfort. The kitchen was better equipped than our kitchen at home. The lake frontage was perfect. Our rented pontoon boat fit perfectly. The fire pit lake side was great. The home is only a few windy miles from Cashiers and Highlands. This vacation will create lifelong memories for us and our family. Thank you for sharing this special place.
