The house and cottage combo fit our large family, which is hard to find. There is plenty of parking and room inside and out. The house being lakefront is a plus. I especially loved the proximity to Pisgah! We would stay here again.
Such an amazing trip and place to stay. It was so perfect for a girls trip, so much space and so many accommodations. Games, floats, fire pit and so much more! We had the BEST time
