Great location to get away. Cell service was not available as to location in mountains, but great way to disconnect. Kids 12/13 did not come out of the water the whole time, lots of fun for them. Great porches to sit, relax and have family time. Highly recommended for family get away.

Beautiful scenery, private & tucked away. Cozy and well stocked home. Fishing, kayaking, walking, making s'mores in the fire pit and relaxing on the deck. Outdoor shower is fun! Just the place to re-connect with nature! We stayed 3 weeks and enjoyed every minute! Annette is very attentive and helpful. Highly recommend!!

Summer vacation
Very nice property. Kid and adult friendly. Rained all week and could not use fire pit due to wet wood. Wood is not in dry area for use. Laundry room is outside of house in basement area. 30 minute or more drive out to activities if you venture out. But over all good place to stay.

Heavenly getaway
If you want to get away from the busy life and put yourself in the comfort of home In the middle of nature's beauty right outside your door, this is the place for you. While having all the conveniences of modern living, the activities that are available at Lakeside Cove include kayaking, swimming, fishing, grilling, hiking and all the privacy you need. We ended up spending more time at Lakeside Cove than sightseeing because we were so comfortable there. Annette was extremely helpful in giving us local information that enhanced our stay. Keep in mind that Lakeside Cove is in the mountains, but we had no problem finding the place or getting around. We plan on returning to this location again.

Nice secluded cabin with things to do
We rowed on the lake, walked around the property, fed the fish, relaxed on the porch bed/swing, used the outdoor shower, cooked meals in the well stocked kitchen, collected colorful fall leaves and disconnected for a bit. This is an older but updated cabin which had everything we needed. Beds in two of the rooms were a little too soft for our liking and it would be nice to have another bathroom but we made it work. We hit some waterfalls in the area and wandered around Cashiers and Highlands, a nice trip. Thanks Annette!

Absolutely incredible!
What an amazing vacation! My family had such an incredible experience and we are so grateful to have had the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful property! This home is well stocked with everything imaginable (both necessities as well as recreation), and the rooms are so comfortable. The scenery is gorgeous and the lake was a huge hit with our kids. They swam every single day and my husband enjoyed fishing every day. There is plenty of wood ready to use for fires, and the outdoor porches are so comfortable and well-appointed. We spent all but one day at this home and enjoyed every moment. The one day we left was just to go visit the waterfalls given the close proximity, and appreciate having done so, but we easily could have spent all 7 days here and never felt bored. Annette is wonderful, the house and property is just spectacular, and my family actually got know one another again. We unanimously decided this is our place for next year’s vacation!

Perfect Getaway Location
This was the perfect location for my family to take a week away during the heat of summer, it is on definitely on our short list of homes to return to in the future. The location is quiet, the views form the porches are beautiful, and the home itself is comfortable. Our two children (9 & 11) had plenty to do between the swimming and paddling around the pond, fishing, the abundant games, and the wide selection of DVDs. The beds are all comfortable. The internet is sufficient for checking email but doesn't have the bandwidth to support video meetings; this was very much a plus for me, as it kept me from getting sucked into work during time I wanted to spend with my family, but I was plugged in enough to know if a situation at the office needed my attention. We brought our two dogs along, and plenty of blankets/sheets were provided to put over couches so that they didn't leave fur on the nice furniture. We love that this rental is supportive of vacationers with dogs. We enjoyed travelling to Franklin and, especially, Sylva, both of which are relatively close. Annette was very helpful and checked in a few times during the week to ensure we were getting along fine.

Amazing Amazing Place!!!
What you can see in pictures is not even close to reality. This house, the lake and location are unbelievable!!! Plenty of things to do in the property, from fishing, swimming, boating, or just walking around and enjoy the beautiful landscape. We had a great time. Tons of things to do around the area. We went hiking a lot, enjoyed swimming in different waterfalls, rafting, zipline and horseback riding. And after all the activities, come back to a great place where you can relax. Thank you Annette for all your help, texts and recommendations! Great Host!

Gorgeous mountain getaway
My family and i were looking to get away from it all and that is exactly what we got. This Lakeside Cove is beautiful, remote, and surrounded by natural beauty. We had a great time in the lake, fishing, playing games, exploring nature and reconnecting. One thing to note is that if you are hyper connected, this isn't the place for you. There is internet, but it's basic - which I loved, but I know isn't right for everyone. This property is great to reconnect by disconnecting. Overall, we couldn't have had a better time and hope to be back!

Privacy in Paradise!
Very secluded wonderful home. This cabin has everything you can think of...towels, blankets, sheets, dishes etc. We had a grand time... we swam and fished in the lake, our Golden Retrievers also had a blast. We brought our telescope...the sky here is so dark and beautiful making it easier to view stars. Definitely highly recommend, we will stay here again.

The house was beautiful and well maintained.
We loved staying at this house. If you need time away from the world this is a place to stay. You can go on the boats are just sit on the deck and watch the fish. The boys caught fish, lizards, Tadpoles ,frogs and had a blast. Annette was so helpful if you had any questions you can call her. She was a blessing. The house was very clean and well maintained. Annette decorated it so pretty. I loved it. I would stay again.

Spring Break with the Family
We booked Annette's house with the expectation of a change of scenery. We got a whole lot more! The house is on 18 acres in the mountains with its own lake. The house was beautifully decorated and had everything you would need (including 3 boasts for the lake). We had rain one day of our trip and there were so many board games and movies that the kids never missed a beat. My family loved it so much that my wife wanted us to buy the place (though not for sale).

Wonderful Winter Getaway
We went just after Christmas. The house was so warm and had everything we could possibly need. The property is fantastic and very secluded. We were fortunate to have one night of snow. My favorite place was the back deck. The view of the lake and mountains was so peaceful. Every corner of the house offered a welcoming place to sit and relax. Great vacation!

God gave us a beautiful vacation in this cabin!!
This home is adorable!! We had an amazing time, we spent Christmas there. This home has everything you need, and I mean EVERYTHING!!! We spent quiet time, the kids rolled down the small hill, they fished although we caught nothing. We took pretty pictures by the fireplace :) Annette the owner checked up on us and was very accommodating What a treasure God has blessed the Krobatsch with a beautiful home . I strongly recommend this home if you want to relax, if you have kids they will have a blast. So much to do. We built puzzles on the porch while sipping on hot cocoa :) this home has a ton of dvds and believe it or not We were able to make actual phone calls from our cells and show our family back home through FaceTime Of course they now want to stay there Oh we can’t wait to come back. Like the others said, it was very hard leaving.....This is a true 5 star home !!!!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Annette Krobatsch

Host profile image
John and Annette visited Franklin North Carolina 16 years ago, fell in love with the area. We bought Lakeside Cove to share with our boys. Over the years we have shared the best of times, with family and friends. We would love to share God's gift of Lakeside Cove with you!

Why they chose this property

For the perfect Summer weather and the beauty of the mountains and the changing of the seasons. Witness the pristine color change of the leaves in Fall.

What makes this property unique

Relaxing in the cool shade of the mountains and surrounding woods. Cooling off in our private lake and outdoor swinging bed overlooking the lake and beautiful mountain range.
