OVERVIEW
Luxury Lakefront Cabin Near Asheville | Private Fishing Dock, Fire Pit, Kayaks
Escape to your own private waterfront retreat in the Blue Ridge Mountains, where mornings begin with sunrise views over calm lake, days stay active with basketball and kayaking against scenic mountain backdrops, and evenings bring stunning sunset views over the mountains, followed by time around a glowing fire pit under the stars.

Designed with families and groups in mind, the home features multiple living areas, a dedicated bunk room, gameroom, and plenty of space to spread out while still feeling connected. With direct access to the lake and kayaks, this is where families unplug, spend real time together, and create lasting memories!
