About this cabin rental
Lakefront Blue Ridge Cabin
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Escape to your own private waterfront retreat in the Blue Ridge Mountains, where mornings begin with sunrise views over calm lake, days stay active with basketball and kayaking against scenic mountain backdrops, and evenings bring stunning sunset views over the mountains, followed by time around a glowing fire pit under the stars. Tucked away in the heart of Mills River, nestled between Asheville and Brevard, this home offers the rare combination of peaceful seclusion and unbeatable convenience, just minutes from the best hiking, biking, and waterfalls in North Carolina.
This wilderness-themed log cabin sits directly on a quiet mountain lake, delivering the kind of setting travelers search for but rarely find, panoramic water views, direct lake access, and a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Designed with families and groups in mind, the home features multiple living areas, a dedicated bunk room, gameroom, and plenty of space to spread out while still feeling connected. With direct access to the lake and kayaks, this is where families unplug, spend real time together, and create lasting memories!

10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2024
My husband, myself, and 5 kids stayed in this cabin for a weekend in the mountains. The cabin was beautiful and clean and the host even provided hotel-style amenities like little shampoo and conditioner bottles. Since my kids forgot to pack their toiletries, we thought that was a particularly nice touch. The cabin is also stocked with towels, life jackets for the kayaks, and everything you could want to cook with. The host obviously cares deeply about providing a top notch experience for their guests. The local mountains offered lots of beautiful places to explore and we wished we could have stayed much longer. We also forgot an iPad when we checked out and the host was very responsive, found the iPad, and shipped it to us promptly and well packaged. I really can’t say enough good things about them.
