Cabin holiday rentals in Lake James

Really enjoyed the property. Everything was as described, very clean, and well stocked with necessary items. The kitchen was supplied with everything you would need, and supplies were on hand for replacement of paper items. We loved the peacefulness of the location and the noise created by the neighboring stream. The only issue was the hot tub cooled off after the first night, we may have left the spa cover off too long, but when we notified the host they were very responsive and responded to fix the problem. We had a great weekend. Definitely a property worth renting for a quiet weekend getaway!

We loved our stay at New Direction!! The hot tub was wonderful after our long hike, and we also really enjoyed the fire pit and just the peacefulness of it. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked.

We were not able to actually stay at Lisa’s place because of Hurricane Helene, but will definitely go when we are able! Lisa was a great host, very responsive and helpful!

We enjoyed our stay. The view of the mountains from the big windows were awesome. The hot tub was very relaxing. The fire pit was nice to sit around at night. The stars at night were so bright. Visiting the shops and restaurants in downtown Marion was nice and convenient. I’d love to see the outdoor string lights repaired, it looks like a storm took down half of them

We really loved this forest cottage. The outside spaces were great and the entire cottage well appointed. It was also available on short notice and that was really helpful. Comfort +

This place is a really nice get away. It is not very far off the main highway so it's easily accessible. The cabin itself is nice and private with the nearest neighbor being quite a ways away. I never heard anyone else the entire time we were there. The cabin was nice and clean and the giant wrap around porch made for a great hang out spot. The hot tub was very nice and clean and is where I spent most of my time. Todd was very responsive to any questions I had.

Our stay was great! There's plenty to do in Hendersonville, with some great restaurants (our favorites were Umi and Hen dough) and fun little shops to pop in to. There's also Asheville nearby and some good hiking trails as well. The cabin itself has a really nice vibe, and the fireplace and hot tub work well too. Some Air BnBs go a little too far with eccentric decor, but this place feels very tasteful while still being unique. Kaitlyn was also responsive with helping us out with a few things, and gave us multiple opportunities to contact her if we needed anything. Overall it was a great time, and we would love to come back - maybe with some friends next time!

Perfect place for a Valentine's weekend trip!! Quiet, peaceful and cozy☺️

We needed to get away from the city life where all of the normal life and work anxieties were bottling up. Finding this location was exactly what I sure needed! I found an amazing and beautiful spot to just sit and do…. NOTHING. The view of the mountains was amazing and serene. Very quiet. No traffic sounds at all except for the occasional resident on the road going home. With it being cold, we were able to utilize the fireplace which was very relaxing. Allison made sure that there was a good amount of amenities available such as towels, soaps, shampoos, coffee makers, etc. Any questions we had prior to our arrival, she was quick to respond. A very kind and great host! I am definitely giving this 5 out of 5 stars and am looking forward to coming back!

The place was great! It's a super cute secluded cabin. Would definitely recommend having a 4x4 or AWD car during winter months

I had a wonderful experience here! Just looking for a calm and fun weekend away, this cabin provided exactly that! The place was well furnished and stocked with everything you could need from toiletries to towels to cooking supplies. Esther was awesome and super communicative, and she gave plenty of instructions on how things worked, what activity were nearby, and lots and lots of other details. 10/10, not a single complaint I can think of!

Wow! The views were amazing. The home is well laid out with plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable. Kitchen had everything needed to feel at home. Private and relaxing, just what we needed. Joe was great with quick communication and answering all our needs. Definitely would come back to Lure of the mountains!

Beautiful location and lovely cabin! We were so thankful to our hosts for being able to accommodate us and allow us to visit our family for the holidays as WNC recovers from Helene. They were so kind and even left us cookies (+ treats for our pups)! <3

Kevin’s place was just like the pictures and has everything we needed! It was quiet and cozy! There was a beautiful trail in the back yard and a fire pit! The road to the cabin wasn’t too bad for my little Toyota carolla as well. Would stay again thank you!

We have two special needs handicapped boys and we wanted to take them someplace extra special for Christmas this year. We’ve never really been anywhere besides visiting family, so we were a bit anxious about going to a cabin in the mountains. But the cabin was exactly as described and Julie assured me that it didn’t snow and ice over until January mostly. So we braved the trip and absolutely loved it. I can’t describe how cozy and special it was to be able to have our boys with us all in one cozy cabin so high up where the boys could enjoy the scenery. Wonderful lovely cabin and friendly host…thank you for answering all my questions about the accessibility! We will definitely return in the future!

Absolutely fabulous getaway to the woods! It was peaceful, private and a great cozy cabin to “get away from it all!” The host provided lots of helpful information about the area and nearby hikes, as well as very clear instructions on how to find the cabin location. She was also very responsive when we had a couple questions during our stay. Highly recommend this gem in the Blue Ridge Mountains!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Sunflower Cottage. The cottage overlooked large fields and the mountains. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and driving the 15-20 mins to Chimney Rock and Lake Lure. We attended a wedding at Bearwallow Mountain and this location was very convenient to the wedding events. We brought our fur friend with us and she loved exploring the area. We felt right at home at Sunflower Cottage. We can't wait to return in the future!

We had a great stay and enjoyed the peaceful and beautiful atmosphere. Convenient location to restaurants and activities while also providing privacy. The cabins were cozy and charming and had just what we needed. Most importantly, the pups loved exploring and had a great time too!

My daughter and I stayed at the cabin on a visit to see my son at Warren Wilson College. It was the perfect place, literally minutes from the college. The cabin is super cozy and comfortable. Great water pressure for showers, heating system kept the house toasty. It had more than enough space, awell equipped kitchen, and comfy beds. Check in and communication was easy and clear. Only a 10 min drive into Asheville to the West or Black Hills to the East. Momentos Coffee is just down the road and has delicious scones, breakfast sandwiches and one of the best latte's I've ever had. Next time we come back to the area we will definitely try to stay here again.

The place was as described and as depicted in the pictures, warm, cozy and small. I went there with my son to spend a night before taking off early for a ski day in a nearby ski resort. For that purpose, the place was great and inexpensive. We arrived late at night, barely interact with the hosts by text on arrival and took off early in the morning. I will go back to this place if I go skiing again to that area.

The house is amazing, plenty of room for 2 people to be more than comfortable. The area is great with lots of mountain scenery and a porch view of a river right next to the cabin. Although the recent hurricane that passed through the area has left debris and damage to surrounding nature the area is still beautiful! This cabin is in a great location being only 20 minutes from downtown Asheville which has plenty of brewery’s, restaurants and shops to keep you busy for an entire day, and also only 15 minutes from the town side of mars hill that has grocery stores and pharmacy’s for any needs! The location of the cabin feels secluded enough that you don’t feel like you’re still in a town but close enough that you don’t have to worry about not being able to quickly grasp anything you need or might have forgotten. The outdoor area attached to the cabin was amazing for late night fires and hanging out. I highly recommend this cabin to anyone wanting to visit the Asheville area!

Great place to stay, the host contacted us frequently to ensure satisfaction and I would highly recommend her to anyone

Just a wonderful place. I was born near there so it was like going home. The place was well thought out, and everything I thought I’d like to have was already there. Host’s didn’t hover and the decor was terrific. Pics don’t do it justice

Stayed here for a few days. It was perfectly comfortable accommodation for multiple nights, had all the amenities we needed, and the hosts were very communicative and helpful. I would definitely stay here again - and recommend the stay to my family and friends.
