The Space:
We're very proud of the space and environment we've created here at the Lakeside cabin and nothing makes us happier than hearing from guests who think so too!
When you pull up in one of our two driveways, you'll easily be able to walk up to our second level, full wraparound deck, where the main entrance is equipped with a custom code door lock.
As you enter the house you'll walk into our huge open concept living room, perfect for watching movies next to the massive, floor to ceiling fireplace, or even playing family board games on the centerpiece coffee table. There's more than enough room for large groups, families, or even multiple families vacationing together.
On this main level you will also find our fully stocked kitchen, that has everything you need to cook and entertain large groups. We have a full size, walk in pantry filled with additional kitchen items, and more than enough space for you to fill up with whatever you need.
Next to the kitchen is our oversized, custom built wooden table with seating for 6, but you can easily pull up additional chairs for more people.
If you'd prefer to eat outside, you can also walk out to our screened in porch, with another oversized, custom built wooden table. Or any of our wraparound decks.
Also on the main floor is our master bedroom suite, with it's own private bathroom equipped with a jacuzzi tub and a large closet.
As you walk up the reclaimed wood staircase you'll find three lofted twin beds and a second HUGE bedroom suite, with two queen beds and another private bathroom with a standing shower and a separate jacuzzi tub. This bedroom has a very large walk in closet.
Please note that while the Jacuzzi is available for use, the jets are currently non-functional.
Heading all the way downstairs to the first floor/basement level, we have a third, large bedroom space taking up practically the entire floor. This room has three bunk beds creating sleeping space for an additional 6 people. There is another HUGE fireplace in this bedroom, making for a gorgeous accent.
Attached to this room is a separate space dedicated to our washer and drier, and this room has an exit that leads you directly out to the gazebo & pond area.
On the other side of this first floor bedroom you can walk out into our garage which has been converted into the ultimate game room, sporting a full size ping pong table, seating for larger groups, and another bathroom.
Outdoors, we have the two levels of oversized wraparound decks, filled with seating and space for larger groups, a grill for BBQs and gorgeous lighting that provides a warm and cozy feeling at night.
There is a mountain stream that has been channeled into a series of gorgeous pond, all stocked with fish that our guests are welcome to try and catch. We've seen some pretty incredible pictures of MASSIVE fish guests have caught, bigger than you would ever believe to be in ponds of this size.
On the other side of the pond there is a large wooden deck that extends into the pond, perfect for fishing or just relaxing in the sunshine.
The vision for Lakeside Cabin was to create a private vacation paradise for you.
You'll love stepping outside to relax and drink your morning coffee on one of our two oversized, wraparound decks overlooking the private gazebo and pond where you can relax shoreside and listen to the sound of the mountain stream flowing right by your private vacation paradise.
NOTE: The red dock on the pond is shared with other neighbors for fishing. The rest of the pond is private for you to enjoy!
On the first floor wraparound deck you'll find our large hot tub overlooking your private pond. Wind down with a glass of wine enjoying the serenity of the mountain, or stay up all night enjoying each others company! It seems like the stories never end when you're sitting in the hot tub.
As the stars come out, roast marshmallows over the fire pit right next to the lake or cozy up inside next to one of our two custom fireplaces.
Our cabin features a fully stocked kitchen, with all of the appliances you need to cook and entertain large parties of people. Eat in the dining area on our reclaimed wooden tables, out on the screened-in porch, the wraparound decks, or even down by the water in the gazebo, the choice is yours! We also have a grill on the deck for your BBQ needs.
Our garage has been converted into the ultimate game room, featuring a full size ping pong table, with a couch/seating area, and another large bathroom.
There are horseshoe pits on-site, as well as corn hole boards, and plenty of green space for a variety of outdoor activities. You're welcome to use any and all of the hiking trails on Memory Mountain, or take a quick trip to several of the nearby parks such as the Great Smokey Mountains, Pisgah National Forest, or the local Wolf Laurel Ski resort.
