Property Description
Welcome neighbor! We’ve decided to share our family’s lake retreat. This is not a full-time rental so it will have many homey touches and not be a sterilized hotel-like rental, if that is what you are looking for. Most of the neighbors are family too (one neighboring house is available on this platform).
This cabin was the first house built during the construction of Cedar Cliff Lake and features millstones from the old grist mill on the front porch. Pine paneling in most rooms give a warm glow to this cabin while a large front porch and enclosed side sunroom let you enjoy the surrounding nature and lake-views. Extensive yard features a fire pit, and there is access to a dock on the lake shared with a neighboring property (also available).
Please be aware Cedar Lake is at reduced pool since 2018 for dam repairs, which should be completed sometime in 2024.
The main bedroom has a queen size bed and a washer & dryer. The smaller bedroom features a full and twin Murphy bed with Disney theme. The den sofa has a pull-out queen bed for additional sleeping space. (Sleeps 7)
Many family members own pets, so this is a pet friendly rental, but please ensure a single animal under 20 pounds, and no damage occurs. Most neighbors have dogs who are not on leashes, but we ask guests to keep dogs on leash since they will be new to the neighborhood canines.
Please be aware the cabin is in the beautiful southern Appalachian mountains, therefore wildlife is abundant. Bears, snakes, spiders, etc. are common, as are deer, turkey, heron, and occasionally bald eagles. Keep a respectful distance from wildlife, and store garbage appropriately.
There is a short stretch of county maintained dirt road required to access the lake and cabin, so arrival during daylight is recommended if possible, but the driveway is asphalt.
Smoking permitted OUTSIDE ONLY! Grill available upone request. RING doorbells are in place, as are outdoor security cameras including one in the enclosed sun porch. NO cameras are in living areas. We hope you’ll enjoy your visit to our cabin on Cedar Cliff Lake as much as we do!About pets:Pets allowed: dogs and cats less than 20 lbs per pet (limit one pet total).About checkOut:Check out before 11:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About checkIn:Check in after 3:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 25.About events:No events allowed.

The location of this cozy cabin on the beautiful Cedar Cliff Lake made our stay exceptional. The host, Greg, was very responsive and friendly. Great getaway from the hustle and bustle!

This cabin and property was perfect for our ambitions of kayaking mountain lakes. We loved our view of the lake and mountains from the porch and spent lots of time of Cedar Cliff Lake and also a trip to Wolf Creek Lake. The cabin was comfortable and well equipped. The dock was a big bonus, not only for paddling but also taking a couple chairs for sunset on the lake. Shook Cove is a hidden treasure and we look forward to returning

This cabin sits above a beautiful quiet lake and is wonderfully centrally located to destination spots like Cashiers and Sapphire, Maggie Valley and Cherokee, and Franklin and Bryson City. It is an ideal place to stay if you are into hiking and chasing waterfalls, as there are plenty around.The host is highly communicative and accomadating. I would stay here again.It was great for two people, but I would think it tight for four adults (even with the two bedrooms), given the overall size of the home and the fact that there is only a small single bath.It fit our needs perfectly.

This cabin is exactly as described. It’s a perfect place for a private getaway. Greg was very good at responding to my questions and made my stay very comfortable.

We loved staying at this cabin! Greg provided the perfect instructions for reaching the property and we found it with no problem. He was a gracious host and all other instructions were great, too! Easy check in, easy check out. We enjoyed two very comfortable nights' sleeps and the quiet and serene surroundings for spending time on the front porch. It was perfect temperature, plenty of kitchen amenities, and a nice hot shower. I will say the property is DARK and it is QUIET! Perfect for our stay! We were staying there for a wedding at the nearby Bear Lake Reserve so we didn't get to spend as much time enjoying the lake as we would have liked but we can't wait to go back!The cabin is close to downtown Sylva and other attractions where we explored a little and had some delicious food and drinks. If you are looking for secluded and relaxing environment to spend a few days, I highly recommend Greg's spot!

Absolutely love staying at Greg’s place. Not my first time. If you are lucky enough to get a reservation (usually booked up) you will keep coming back. Super cool home with I’m sure lots of history. Location Location Location, the view of Cliff Lake is amazing, Kayaking made easy, short walk across the front yard and your on Greg’s dock hopping in your kayak going for a beautiful cruise on a beautiful lake. Fishing is great too. For those who like to relax no need to leave property, rocking chairs on front porch a kitchen that has everything you need to fix great meals while enjoying the view on the front porch. When you have to go out for supplies dollar store is less than 10 minutes away. The only drawback is you do actually have to leave eventually. Greg thanks for everything and will see you soon.
