Holiday rentals with a hot tub in Chattooga River

Absolutely perfect. We stayed for the week with our five kids (6,4,3, & 1 year old twins) and had an amazing family vacation. The space worked perfectly for our needs as a large family with small kids and the beach area was especially perfect for toddler playtime. The waterfall across the way was stunning and we loved boating around, fishing, swimming, fires by the lake, and rainy evenings in the hot tub. Such an amazing place for families!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The location was perfect—just a short walk to town, which we took advantage of multiple times a day. We explored nearby gems like Black Rock State Park, Tallulah Falls, Brasstown Bald, Minnehaha Falls (the drive there around Lake Rabun was stunning), and both Panther and Angel Falls. After long days of hiking, it was such a treat to soak our tired legs in the stream and then unwind in the hot tub. The beds were incredibly comfortable, probably the best I’ve had at an Airbnb. We’re so glad we chose this spot!

Loved our stay! This is a great place to unwind, relax and enjoy. Richard provided a detailed list of local sites to see and restaurants. We highly recommend staying here and visiting Tellico Plains.

Awesome oasis in tree-covered canopy! We stayed at the airstream more then we ventured out! We loved the outdoor area and even took a nap on the sofa! We took numerous dips in the hot tub and grilled out! We loved the tree-lighted areas indoors and very detail has been thought out! Thank you for a wonderful getaway and would definitely recommend to others! Loved tubing with Brevard Tubing .3 miles away! Hiked to waterfalls in DuPont State Park. Well worth it! Beautiful! Walked in downtown Brevard to shop. A must!

This is a beautiful home tucked into a peaceful little corner of the mountains. The house has all of the basics covered. The waterfalls in front of the house are beautiful and provide a constant white noise that I found to be very peaceful. However, the roar is surprisingly loud. The home is very automated (Alexa to control the lights, motioned sensing trash can, etc.) which I guess can be a pro or a con depending on preference. We especially loved all of the deck space! And I loved all of the windows that brought in a ton of natural light.

Had the most amazing time during our stay. Views were breathtaking and the cabin was more than we could have ever thought possible. Will most definitely be planning a trip back

Will be coming back to this space!! So beautiful, every detail and amenity was available and thought through. Felt right at home & was able to bring the pups! We forgot a water bowl & Lindsey had one ready for us when we got there with plenty of paw towels and doggie bags!! Also, expect a pretty steep driveway! We have a 4-WD and AWD vehicle and had little to no problems. Thank you to Lindsey for offering this amazing space !

Nick is an absolutely wonderful host, and the house is just beyond incredible. The view is AMAZING, and you can see the attention to detail all over the home as well. The smore kit and fire starters were so thoughtful too! Thank you Nick for an incredible stay and a wonderful menory 🙏 I will most definitely be back. The sunset is a must see as well from the deck!!!!

I had an amazing stay at Casey’s place! The home was spotless, well-equipped, and exactly as described. The location was perfect—peaceful and scenic, with beautiful views of Lake Lure. The bed was super comfortable, and I appreciated the thoughtful decor and extra amenities. Casey was a fantastic host—quick to respond, friendly, and made check-in a breeze. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great stay in Lake Lure!

Spacious and beautiful cabin. Lovely outdoor area and incredibly comfortable bed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

This place exceeded all the high expectations we had going in. The view cannot be done justice with the photos. We have stayed in a bunch of places in the NC mountains and this was by far the most beautiful view we have ever seen. We also didn’t realize just how great it would be to have access to the lake club facilities just by staying in the reserve. Aurelia was super responsive, friendly and helpful. If it’s available, we hope we can stay again next year!

This place was everything we didn’t know we needed. Tucked away in the quiet beauty of Lake Lure, it felt like our own little escape. The house was clean, cozy, and had so many thoughtful touches. We started each morning with coffee on the deck and ended each night under the stars—it was peaceful in a way that’s hard to put into words. Our family made real memories here, and we’re already talking about coming back.

I can't really say enough but here's a brief synopsis. Beautiful, very private, cozy, clean, responsive, helpful host, plenty of extra thoughtful touches, fantastic views from every part of house. Firewood and even some good food is provided. Everything you could need or want and even things you wouldn't think of. You will not be disappointed.

My family enjoyed a long, relaxing weekend at Craig's Encore at the end of Lake Nantahala. We have stayed in many places, and this home was truly exceptional with every detail considered. We enjoyed watching Lake Nantahala change throughout the day, paddled in the kayaks, swam, soaked in the hot tub, relaxed and had fun outings renting a boat one day and tubing down the Nantahala River the next. It was truly memorable, and the only drawback was the long drive in over gravel, but that's what makes it so peaceful and remote. The lake was never busy and such a big change from so many crowded and touristed spots. We hope we made a good impression and will be welcomed back. This is truly a loved and cherished family home, and we appreciate Craig sharing it with us.

The home is clean, modern, and easy to get around in. The kids enjoyed the game room (ping pong table and pool table downstairs) and use of the private pool area. Having TVs in every bedroom was helpful, especially with children of varying ages. Lots of seating available in the kitchen. Our host was responsive during our stay, taking the time to check in with us and answering our questions. The home is surrounded by big trees and greenery. If you are traveling with children bring mosquito repellent. Good experience overall, would stay here again.

Absolutely Perfect for a Family Gathering Our stay in Bryson City was phenomenal. The views alone are worth the trip—breathtaking mountain panoramas in every direction. But what really set this Airbnb apart was how thoughtfully everything was set up for a large, extended family to relax and reconnect. The gathering spaces—both indoors and out—were stunning and comfortable, perfect for everything from morning coffee to late-night games and conversations under the stars. The yard games and the game room kept the kids entertained for hours, and the coffee bar was a huge hit with everyone. The sound system and music setup made it easy to set the mood wherever we were. The unobstructed views of the pristine Smoky Mountains from the hot tub were beyond what we imagined. You can tell the hosts put real care into creating an experience. We made amazing memories here, and we’re already checking our calendars for when we can make it back.

I wish we could have stayed an entire week! The cabin is wonderful. Cozy, clean, with the right amount of magic to make rustic feel luxurious. Theresa and David are wonderful hosts and stayed in communication during our travel snags and cancelled flights. I am already looking ahead at my calendar and trying to decide when I might be able to return. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful spot.

They didn’t miss a single detail in this gorgeous mountain home. Cooking, the jacuzzi, sitting for hours on the patio watching the storms roll across the mountain tops, sleeping on a comfy bed, playing board games, watching movies, everything was wonderful! It’s a great location that’s easy to get to Townsend, and it’s super close to some of my favorite areas in the Smoky Mountains. Well done Karly and Joe!

This place is absolutely beautiful!! You get the Mountain View and the rain forest feel at the same time. And if you have a dog-stop looking now and BOOK. My dog had as much fun as we did. The fence is so useful. The hot tub is larger than most! And the rain on the tin roof!! Priceless. Along with very comfortable bedding-you’ll sleep like a baby. Parker is nothing short of excellent! You will not be disappointed. We will be back very soon.

We absolutely loved our stay at Black Hollow! The process of checking in and out was a breeze and we were able to communicate with them as needed without difficulty. The attention to detail in this home was breathtaking!!! You had everything you needed at the property should you not choose to leave. They even accommodated a slightly later check out which was most appreciated. We look forward to returning to this property! Many thanks!

Love it love it love it LOVE IT!! It was everything we needed ! I will come back to blue ridge JUST to stay here !

DON’T miss your chance to experience the magic of the River Love barn. Kangee’s EXCEPTIONAL hospitality throughout our time in her home set the tone for the entirety of our stay. Her attentiveness & genuine warmth made us feel right at home. The beauty of this property is truly beyond words. While the photos online are stunning, they don’t fully capture the enchanting atmosphere that envelops you as soon as you step onto the grounds. Our favorite spots were the clawfoot tub, perfectly nestled in a private, serene area of the property & the outdoor hammock within the screened in back deck. Kangee truly brought the outside in with her thoughtful design. Even on a rainy day- the sky lights during a storm that had passed through was such a reminder of the cozy atmosphere that permeates the barn. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful getaway or a relaxing family trip, the River Love Barn is a hidden gem that I cannot recommend enough. We left feeling refreshed & inspired, with hearts full.

This place was so peaceful and relaxing. We stayed on the dock or around the fire pit. Mornings were spent drinking coffee on the deck with the gorgeous lake views. Never even turned the TV on. The house was clean and well stocked. There’s lots to do in the area as well. Definitely will be back.

We had a wonderful trip! Enjoyed the fire pit and beautiful views from the deck. Our first time to the smoky mountains and we were very pleased with the location and ease of getting to the park. Especially enjoyed the quieter side of the park. Host was very responsive to our questions and things we needed help with. We would definitely stay at their properties again. Cozy bed and everything we needed for the week. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
