Hilltop was the perfect place for our getaway. We were able to invite our previous neighbors from FL who now live in Hayesville,NC to join us. We were familiar with the area as our family members own a home in the neighborhood. The home was well stocked with cooking supplies and very spacious and cozy.

Great time with family. The accommodations were as wonderful as advertised. I would however, caution older folks to be aware that it’s a long and steep trail to the dock but well worth the trip.

Love this property and Greybeard rentals. The property was beautiful, the location and lake were perfect. Greybeard was so easy to work with and treated us so well. We definitely hope to be back!
