House vacation rentals in Fontana Lake

Cottage by the Creek was exactly as described. It was so relaxing and peaceful. My absolute favorite place to be was the swing listening to the creek and sharing my time with the multiple ducks, geese, cardinals and other birds. We got lucky enough to see a turkey and a hummingbird. The distance to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg were perfect! I’m so hoping to be able to stay here again in the future.

Exactly like the pictures! They almost don’t do the view justice! The hot tub was one of our favorite parts. We drove about 40 min to Cade’s cove for a hike.. highly recommend. We also stopped at “Burger Master” and “Townsend Abby Pub” where David took great care of us! We will definitely be back to the Rocky Top Retreat!

An excellent spot for enjoying the Nantahala National Forest, as well as having ample room and accomodations for guests and vehicles.

Phenomenal house. Pool and hot tub were great. Ample towels and disposables (soap, tp, etc.). Definitely an older home but you can tell it has been well loved over the years. Only two complaints were one of the pool sticks had a missing top and the bottom trundle bed was not very sturdy. Overall though, phenomenal stay and will be back if available again in the future.

Perfect place to stay that offers a peaceful getaway , but close to everything the area has to offer. We appreciate this pet friendly host. Danny was very quick to respond to messages.

This is such an amazing place and yes it is real! Incredible views and wonderful stunning home in the mountains. It really was a memory I'll have forever. Matt was so awesome, he helped us get settled in and the amenities were so awesome🙏. Stay here and prepare to be pampered all the way up in the mountains! ❤️

The view from the cabin was simply breathtaking. The cabin was meticulously designed and equipped with all the amenities you could ever need. The hot tub, game room, and fire tables in the porch were a huge plus. Joyce was incredibly kind and attentive to our questions and concerns. Throughout our stay, we appreciated the time and effort you put into providing us with detailed user guides for every appliance in the cabin. We can’t wait to return to this wonderful place!

We had such a wonderful stay at this cabin! The home itself was beautiful—clean, cozy, and well-maintained. Everything we needed was already there, which made our stay so easy and comfortable. The views were absolutely stunning, and we loved being able to relax and take it all in. It truly felt like a peaceful escape. Highly recommend!

Beautiful home that was very comfortable and private. Set peacefully in the woods just off the main road, the house was quiet and very well appointed.

Me and three friends trailered our bikes down to do the tail of the dragon. Joseph was quick to respond to our questions. The house is tucked away down a dirt road. He told us right away trailer would not work on his drive. We decided to park the trailer near the cemetery down the street. Do NOT attempt to take a trailer. We loved it because we kept our bikes in the garage. I had an issue with my bike and luckily he had tools laying around in the garage and I was able to fix it on the spot. Over great time. Air was super cold and it was a great view in the woods.

This is the perfect getaway spot to unplug and unwind. The views are spectacular, the hikes are great and the lake being so close was perfect. Our 2 year old had a great time on the trails and hammocks up top as well as swimming in the lake. If you need suggestions on what to do the guidebook (or contacting the hosts) will give you all the info you need. The hosts are there to answer any and all questions incredibly quickly as well as lead you in the right direction for things to do. The kitchen is well stocked so if you want to stay on site just pack groceries and you’ll never want to leave. This cabin is nice and private with all the romantic touches. We definitely will be back to keep exploring the area!

Absolutely amazing stay! We loved every aspect of our time here. The air conditioning kept the space perfectly cool, the bed was incredibly comfortable with pillows that were just right and soft, clean linens that made it hard to get up in the morning. The bathroom is luxurious, especially with having hot water and overall cleanliness. One of the highlights was the view complete with a charming little stream/mini waterfall right outside, creating the most peaceful ambiance for sleeping. The outdoor amenities were also a wonderful bonus and made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

very nice place. well thought out. nice a quiet and the host was very responsive and helpful. would stay again.

Great location and very peaceful. Extremely clean and well stocked. We stayed in the winter, so the lake was low, but we knew that going in. Parking and stairs down to the door can be a little trickey, especially at night. As others have said, dont bring a boat to the property but take it to a marina. There is limited ability to turn around. Would certainly stay again.

Great stay in Highlands! A few things to note - the mile drive after you get off the main road is gravel and there’s no service. There was also no Uber/Lyft but we were driving so no issues there. Just a couple things to plan for during your stay! Overall, amazing place, extremely clean, & great communication with host. Would 100% stay here again!

If I could give this place 10 stars, I’d do it in a heartbeat. Everything about this cabin was amazing. I’ll start with the hosts - they literally thought of everything when it comes to their home and the information they provide. They were super responsive and really great to work with. The cabin itself was so incredibly clean. The views — absolutely beautiful. The cabin was super comfortable — it even had hot water and the temperature inside the cabin was well maintained (which we haven’t always had in our previous cabin stays elsewhere). The drive up to the cabin was easy, even in a minivan! I can’t recommend this cabin enough - you won’t be disappointed!

This is a fantastic little place. The view was amazing and the sound of the creek was the best. Everything you might need is thought of and if we had any questions Samantha was helpful and very quick to respond. My husband didn’t want to leave.

Great place and location for our planned activities on the lake and Nantahala. VERY responsive host. Had a small problem and Mike was on it immediately with help. Couldn’t ask for a better host. Would highly recommend.

This location is perfect! The house is close to the river and the property is a short drive from town. Highly recommend!

Matthew’s place was very nice and cozy. Definitely one of the cleanest and best stocked cabins I have ever stayed in! We had a few hiccups in our trip (mainly issues caused by weather, nothing anyone could help). However, Matthew stayed in constant communication throughout the trip and kept us up to date with information we needed regarding the weather caused outages and the such and made sure we were taken care of. I can truly tell that he goes above and beyond for his guests. I would definitely stay here again!

The cabin is even more amazing in person, world class views every day! It was also exceptionally clean, well stocked kitchen and pantry and our questions were responded to quickly. It’s a remote location which we didn’t mind. Quick access to the lake/river for fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and fun encounters with the Great Smoky Mountains train. Close enough to the Nantahala Outdoor Center and Bryson City for daily excursions.

The best house that we have stayed in our 3 visits to that area!

Another year and another stay. Dina was great with communication, to arouse we arrived safely and also made sure we departed safely. Dina was very responsive when ever we had questions. As a car enthusiast, Dina location is great for multiple cars, although it is a steep incline to get in and out. it was no problem for us. We will continue to stay here every year we visit.

This is our second time staying here and we just absolutely love our stay every time. It's a beautiful, comfortable home with stunning views that you'll absolutely fall in love with. We come down for a car event called Wookies in the Woods and we are able to have 8 cars in the driveway for our stay. Bryan also added a pressure washer this year which made cleaning our vehicles for the event so effortless. We absolutely love staying here, and will continue to recommend it to everyone. Bryan, thank you for everything!
