Robbinsville Cabin Sleeps 10 | Game Room, Pets

🌲 Five Echos – Secluded Cabin Retreat Near the Lake 🌲



Game Room • Forest Views • Water Access



Tucked deep in the woods, Five Echos is a cozy cabin retreat where peace, play, and a touch of storybook magic come together. Legend has it this cabin once belonged to a Swiss-German yodeler (yes, really!)—so don’t be surprised if the forest feels alive with echoes of its past.



Just a 5 to 10 minute walk from the lake, this hideaway blends rustic charm with modern comforts, making it the perfect escape for families, couples, or friends looking to relax, reconnect, and recharge.



Inside, soaring floor-to-ceiling windows frame the forest, while the warm woodsy interior and thoughtful amenities make you feel right at home. Step outside to stargaze, roast marshmallows by the fire pit, and share laughter echoing through the trees.

About the Lake Access -



5 Echos is close to the lake but is not a lakefront property. The water is not on the property itself. To reach it, you follow the road down from the cabin, past a neighboring home, to an access point at the shoreline. Plan on a 5 to 10 minute walk each way.



At the water there is a small floating platform. You can tie off a kayak, canoe, or paddleboard, and it works fine as a launch point for getting out on the water. The platform is older and in rough shape, so we do not recommend using it for sitting, sunbathing, or spending time on the dock itself.



A few things to plan for so your expectations are set:



- The access is a 5 to 10 minute walk down the road, not steps from the cabin. Getting gear down and back takes some effort, so pack light for the water.

- There is no boat ramp or launch here. You cannot back a trailer down or drop a boat in the water at this access point.

- The final stretch to the shoreline is a natural grass and dirt slope, not a finished walkway. Wear appropriate shoes and use care, especially with kids or anything you are carrying.

- Think of this as a convenient way to get onto the lake for paddling or a swim, not as a private waterfront lounging area.

- If getting out on the water easily is the main goal of your trip, we are happy to point you to nearby public boat launches and marinas.



✹ Private Access

Enjoy full, private access to the entire home during your stay—your mountain retreat awaits!



Attic Space - The attic area is heated by a space heater. The AC unit in this room does not produce heat when outdoor temperatures drop too low, so the space heater is used to keep the area warm and comfortable.

✹Important Note About Fontana Lake Water Levels

Fontana Lake is a man-made reservoir managed by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). Each year, from September to November, the TVA gradually lowers the water level by up to 60 feet as part of its routine lake management.



While this process is gradual and the lake remains scenic, water levels during this time—especially in the later months—may be noticeably lower than in summer. Guests booking earlier in the season are less likely to see a significant difference.



Fishing and the lake’s natural beauty are not impacted by this wter level adjustment. Water levels typically return to normal by April, though exact timing may vary depending on the TVA's schedule.



✹Please note that this property is at the end of a mile long gravel road. It is safe and easy to traverse all year long, but if you arrive for the first time at night it may be intimidating. If you are on a motorcycle or are trailering motorcycles be aware that you will have to use a long gravel road. The driveway is very steep, but we have bee…
