Lake James N.C. Waterfront, Private Dock, Bunkee/porch on water! Beautiful views

Quintessential lake front cabin in private setting on beautiful Lake James N.C.. This is a beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home with outstanding views and water access to N.C.’s most beautiful lake. The house is located on a delightful , private natural wooded lot, allowing guests to enjoy the property and its amenities with no disturbances. Down several steps with landings to the lake you can find a large private dock with two boat slips, a jet ski dock, and a small screened-in bunk house on shore for sleeping or hanging out. Four kayaks are included, water basketball goal, and dining area on the dock! The property was a family home recently updated and now available for vacation rental! The house has high speed internet for your convenience. Lake house has updated kitchen, open floor plan in upper living area with fireplace. Master bedroom with private water closet on main floor with fireplace and TV. Deck with comfortable gliders, fire table and a small bar to enjoy the awesome views and sunsets! There is also a brand new Blackstone grill on the deck available for use by renters to cook anything! Downstairs has two bedrooms with TV’S (one queen, two twins), a full bathroom, and an extra shower for coming off the lake. There is also a central living area with TV, video games, board games and wood stove for those cold nights. Screen porch with TV, outdoor shuffleboard table and outdoor seating area. Wonderful neighborhood to walk around the loop and enjoy the views. One of the closer subdivisions on Lake James with easy access to I-40 (8 minutes) and to easy access to get to Morganton & Marion (15 minutes), or Asheville (45 minutes) for great shopping and restaurants. This wonderful home is close to Lake James State Park and beach, Fonta Flora biking and hiking trails, and Fonta Flora brewery, two public golf courses. These are all within 10-15 minutes of the cabin. Pontoon rentals are available at the local marina which is 5 minutes away from the home. The rental does come with water mat, canoe, kayaks, and various life jackets. Our family has lived on the lake for 22 years and would love to share this property with you! Come enjoy all that Lake James and surrounding mountains have to offer! Multi week discounts are available.

Beautiful home and great location!
The homeowner was very helpful at every step. The house is exactly what you think of when you think "lake house." The furniture was inviting and the house well decorated. The beds were also very comfortable. Kayaks, canoes, paddle board. It had it all!

Great getaway!
Lake James is beautiful and the house was great. We cook a lot and the kitchen was well equipped. We spent much of our time on the deck or down by the water. Great week!

Paradise on Lake James
We loved our stay! The house was well decorated and stocked with what we needed. The views were spectacular! We kayaked and hiked at local parks as well as venturing out to other places to hike as well. Fall is gorgeous there! Our only complaint was that we did not stay longer. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home!

Very nicely updated house with gorgeous view
This house attracted my with a reasonable price range and ability to stay for a weekend only. It was a nicely updated, older house, with everything you need on hand. It was clean, had all the necessities and was supplied with linens and towels. The best and most thoughtful thing was that the owners left cofee for guests. We arrived late and forgot our own. It was the best surprise you can imagine. The house was prepared for guests and smelled nicely. The outdoor area was amazing. The garden stairs looked magically with outdoor lighting. I wish we could spend more time at the lake. The fact this house is in a cove makes this place quiet from the water traffic noise. I definitely recommend this place. The only thing that could work better was the internet.
