Spacious Lake Santeetlah Cottage w/ Lake Views!

Wonderful house, great location, excellent host

We stayed with a group of five adults for a trip to Deal’s Gap and just loved this house! The place is beautifully renovated and decorated with lovely landscaping. We were particularly pleased with the paved parking available for our five Honda S2000s. The location is about five miles to Robbinsville and about a 15 minute drive to Deal’s Gap (a.k.a. Tail of the Dragon). The house is well-stocked with many upgraded items and had everything we needed to cook some meals and grill some steaks. There were really nice personal touches throughout (some fresh flowers, water bottles in the fridge, etc.) and the beds were very comfortable. The host/owner (Aura) was very communicative and immediately responsive to any questions that we had. You can tell she takes great pride in the house and in making us feel welcome and comfortable. The view from the deck and lakeside bedroom is gorgeous. There isn’t direct lake access, but there is a stairway down to the road below where you can go to the public access or make friends with a neighbor with a dock, but we weren’t there to swim or boat. Highly recommended; we plan to stay there again.

Beautiful Santeetlah home

We have stayed at this property every year for the last four years and absolutely love this place. The neighborhood and setting is fantastic. House has great bedrooms and bathrooms, beautiful porch to hang out on, etc.

Wonderful, Spacious Home with Lots of Amenities

We were a group of 7 adults plus our dog and we had PLENTY of room for everyone to spread-out. The kitchen was stocked with lots of spices and oils for cooking our meals. The grill on the deck was ready-to-go with a full propane tank. There was more than enough firewood for us to have a great evening at the fire pit. The house was immaculately clean and we didn't lack for anything. Our host was very responsive when we had questions prior-to and during our stay. The house is located in an extremely quiet community and the roads leading in and out are very steep and curvy. There is a beautiful winter view of the lake from the back decks but no actual lake access. Just a short drive if you want to be at the marina or fishing on the nearby river.

One of our favorites

We've stayed at a lot of different houses in the area, and this one has become our favorite. It's always well-kept, well-prepared, and well-stocked for most anything you'd need as a rental in the area. We appreciate the lakeside location, but also being close to town in the event that you need supplies of any kind. We also enjoy the nice gestures from the owner, like stocking the fridge with fresh eggs to work with for breakfasts. Definitely recommend.
