Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Fontana Lake

I stayed at this cozy cabin for my birthday, and it was truly one of the best experiences I’ve had. From the moment I arrived, everything was smooth and stress-free thanks to the incredibly helpful instructions and thoughtful notes left by the owner. The cabin itself was clean, peaceful, and beautifully tucked away in nature. It had everything I needed and more. The owner’s care and attention really showed—they even left personalized recommendations for nearby spots and a guide for things to do in the area, which made the whole trip feel special and personal.

Enjoyed staying here for second year in a row. We stayed as two couples, but there is a third bedroom. Above all very clean and nice. Hosts are super! Neighborhood is quiet. Great porch, we didn’t have time to use this time but lovely suburban backyard. Easy in and out of neighborhood. Close proximity to shopping and dining. The driveway is steep in the car, but level getting in and out so was perfect for my mom. One of the parking spots is covered. Split level with lots of living space to gather. Comfortable bed. Good closet space for hanging clothes. All’s taken care of for you. Feels right at home.

Wow. Beautiful. This place was so clean it took my breath away almost as much as the views! The porch, the property, the yard, it was all perfect. I can’t wait to come back to this peaceful, quiet place and bring my big doggie girl. We’ve stayed in “pet friendly” places before. Often they smell pet friendly. This place smells like nothing. The best smell EVER. It doesn’t smell like someone is covering up what you could imagine pet stays would need to conceal. It was just like being in our own home. Easy to fine, climate control easy to use, lots of windows, plenty of parking, and home was easy to access. Love, love, love.

This house is awesome! Great views with lots to do! The backyard is beautiful. Phillip was a great hosts and made sure we had everything we needed. Would recommend to everyone!

We loved our stay at Ashley's cabin! Beautifully decorated and so peaceful and quiet. Exactly as described. Would recommend to anyone looking for a Highlands getaway.

Very quiet and peaceful. Short drive to Sylva and to WCU. Kitchen had most every utensil you would need. Deck area was nice with lots of chairs. Wife liked the large bathtub, and beds were all comfy. Living space is open and worked well for community time.

Wonderful home and super nice. Awesome proximity to all the shops and restaurants. Considering how close it was to the main highway it was very quiet. Don’t let the surroundings scare you, the neighborhood is older but everyone was friendly. The house over all was very clean and comfy. The main bedrooms bed was very low to the ground but oh so comfy. Kids had a blast in the back yard and playing the games. We were all able to relax in the living room and enjoy some movies in our down time. Definitely a diamond in the rough, highly recommend!

Great experience! Highly recommend! -Tara was an amazing host! She responded very quickly and went above and beyond to accommodate any requests and answer any questions we had. -House was VERY clean, nicely decorated & furnished, well-maintained inside and outside. -The kitchen is fully-stocked with dishes, cookware, appliances, all very clean and in good condition. Bathrooms were very clean and the towels smelled nice and fresh. -Lots of space for the whole family! The game room was tons of fun for our teenagers, and the fenced yard was great for our pup. -Location is perfect - very peaceful and quiet, yet it's also just minutes away from all the shops, restaurants, and fun attractions. We would absolutely book this home again if we return to the area! Wonderful home and wonderful host!

would stay here again ! lovely location and nice place inside and out

Words fail to describe how much we appreciated the hosts and their attention to detail to make sure that our stay was comfortable and perfect. We were greeted by Don. The hosts have lifted the bar on hospitality. I choose to stay through airbnb over hotels, because I am looking to connect with locals and community. Our hosts made their home feel like home - and more - for us. We came to relax, and we got what we were looking for. We look forward to staying here again. Hopefully, we can make it back in the fall. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Thank you for making us a part of your family while away from home. 🙂

By far one of the best places we have ever stayed with AirBnB. It was spotless, well furnished, located close to everything. Kathy was an excellent host and we will check availability of this place the next time we are in the area.

Will rent again, so cute!

I enjoyed staying at this quiet and peaceful place. It was neatly kept, clean, and comfortable. Dave and Barb were great, and I also enjoyed meeting Beans! Thank you for a wonderful place to stay during my trip.

Great place close to Bryson City, private, with kid-friendly amenities. Would recommend.

We had a wonderful stay! The home was very clean, well-maintained, and had a warm, welcoming feel that made us feel right at home. One of the best parts was the location—it was within walking distance to several great restaurants, which made exploring the area so convenient. We did encounter a minor issue with the A/C during our stay, but the host was very responsive and quick to offer assistance, which we truly appreciated. Their attentiveness made a big difference. Overall, it was a great trip, and we’re already planning to return and stay here again next year. Highly recommend!

We never got to stay at Lara’s place due to the hurricane and not being able to get there but I seriously can’t rate a host higher. Lara was compassionate and so so helpful. It is hard to come by true, genuine people like this and I can’t recommend their place higher! Thank you for everything, we will never forget your kindness.

we had a great visit, the condo was clean ,cozy, and felt like home. easy access to downtown. parking was a little crazy at the condo because they had a large gathering of folks the weekend we visited. definitely will be visiting again soon.

I had a great stay at in Gatlinburg! The location was perfect—just a short walk to downtown, which made it super convenient, but it was still tucked away in a quiet, peaceful area. The setting was beautiful, especially with the river running right behind the property—it made for a relaxing backdrop throughout the stay. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly what I was looking for. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

The condo was absolutely perfect. It looked just like the pictures. It was very clean. We really enjoyed our stay and will stay again.

This place was a perfect place to stay for our Smokey Mountain trip. It was a great location because it was an easy drive to the national park and Gatlinburg. The place was nice because we were able to hike in the morning and relax the rest of the day in the comfortable space. I would come back!

My whole stay was amazing. Tammy was so friendly and inviting. I would love to stay there again the next time i come to Gatlinburg.

Had a great time here. Perfect location walking distance to restaurants and quick drive to access the National park.

It was wonderful, clean, and in a private area!

Very clean, very comfortable, well maintained, and great apartment for the price! Would recommend 100%. We both felt right at home. We had a peaceful stay. The people directly above us were noisy, but we sent a message to our host, and he was very proactive about contacting the owners of the above apartment, and it seemed to work, because they quietened down a great deal. Our host was friendly and he even gave us some extra time to check out because the above apartment kept us awake most of the night. Thank you to our host for such a great stay! We would definitely rent again!
