About this house rental
Kingfisher's Roost is a luxury lakefront two-bedroom nestled at the mouth of Lake Fontana. In the Summer, you will find a calm oasis just outside your door, and after Labor Day, the lower waterline transforms the property into a riverfront home where you can witness the changing ecosystem. No matter what time of year you're vacationing, you will love the beautifully manicured path to the water and the natural stone seating, perfect for casting a line! Enjoy the hot tub or sit by the fire pit while you observe wildlife, or take advantage of the private dock and your own personal gravel put-in, right beside the home. Bring your own boat, or rent one from Alarka Marina, about a mile away.
Perfect for a small family, or couples' retreat, Kingfisher's Roost is furnished with two King Bedrooms, offering maximum comfort and privacy. With views of the water from nearly every window in the house, there's no better way to relax! The open-concept layout of the kitchen, dining and living room makes a perfect atmosphere for sharing family time and recounting the day's adventures.
When you're ready to venture out you can enjoy dining, hiking, and shopping in Bryson City, only about a ten-minute drive. You can also hop on the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad from Bryson City to Dillsboro and enjoy sightseeing through the mountains. Venture to Cherokee for a historical tour or visit Harrah's Casino for games and entertainment. If you fancy a trip to Sylva, about a 30-minute drive, be sure to ask us about exclusive spa and dining discounts with our partners at Fusions Spa and Foragers Canteen! Are you ready for the real mountain experience? We can't wait to have you!

Beautiful property and place, hot tub works great and was very thoroughly cleaned! Easy to drive to in a small car and the views were amazing! Nothing bad about this place to say! I will like to say the cleaning fee verses the actual cleanliness was a little overpriced, as soon as we arrived my husband immediately slipped on the back stairway/stone path between the deck and the hot tub. Not from any rain or weather but The deck is super slick and maybe needs a good pressure washing. I also had to clean out the k cup machine and wash our dishes before using them, which is no big deal considering I do that anyways. But my husbands fall was major & honestly could’ve been prevented. He came home with a softball sized, very nasty bruise to his lower back. He’s okay, he’s tough, but my point is simply for the cleaning fee, I would’ve expected the exterior walkways to have been sprayed off and cleaner. The first night, the chlorine scent was so strong we couldn’t stay in the hot tub long at all but I understand and at least I know it was sanitized lol overall the owners/rental agency were great with communication, no complaints about them at all, also to note nobody was contacted about my husbands fall as there was nothing we could’ve expected from them but I feel as though if we had called they would’ve done anything they could to accommodate. We enjoyed our thanksgiving holiday overall & look forward to visiting again!

Loved this place for a weekend getaway! Sounds of the creek by the fire pit, upstairs bed is super comfy. Quick 15 minute drive into Bryson city. Will definitely be back! Only quarrel is that the coffee maker was not good. Ha.

6 / 10Average·Sep 2024
House was clean, comfortable, with basic supplies, wifi/tv worked well, hot tub was clean and well maintained, House not on lake but on a creek that feeds the lake, water had been let down so basically a mud hole remained, could not use the dock sitting since on the ground, no swimming or fishing since the lake was gone well before they said it would be lowered, should have booked a house on the main body of the lake, would not recommen or return
