Cottage on the Point

Home away from home! 4-bedroom home with expansive screened-in porch facing the lake. If you want to get-away, enjoy all the outdoor activities of the mountains, but keep the comforts of home, this vacation home is for you.The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a quartz countertop with seating for two at one end. All the necessary cooking pots, pans, appliances and dishware are there, as are basic cooking staples and spices. The indoor dining area next to the kitchen comfortably seats 4-6 people. But the real mealtime joy is the adjoining dining area on the screen porch.The screen porch extends the full width of the house. It has a dining table for 6-8. It also has a cozy seating area for two at one end for enjoying a morning coffee or to curl up with a good book. A couch and casual seating at the other end accommodate a larger group. There’s also plenty of space to set up folding tables on the porch for games or jigsaw puzzles. You could easily find yourself spending most of your time on the screened porch!The rest of the first floor includes the living room area with seating around a large stone fireplace. Put your feet up and enjoy a book from our collection or find a good show on TV (HBO included). The master bedroom, bath and walk-in closet are on the other side of the first floor. The spacious bedroom with a king-size bed has plenty of room to spread out. The bathroom has two sinks, a tiled shower with a shower-seat, and a large walk-in closet with tons of room.Upstairs are three more bedrooms. The largest of them has two full-size beds, two dressers, a couch and still has plenty of space! It has a dormer looking out on the front yard and triple windows on the lake side. The other upstairs lake side bedroom has a queen bed and also has triple windows overlooking the lake. The upstairs front bedroom has two twin beds with a dormer window looking out the front and double side windows. Completing the upstairs is a full bath. It has a shower-tub combination and a quartz top vanity. There is also plenty of cupboard space for toiletries.If the weather is bad or you are just tired from being outside, there is a lower-level game room. The kids will enjoy this colorful get-away spot. There is a second refrigerator down there that is a perfect place to grab a soda. Then make some popcorn, play some board games, foosball or pop in a good DVD to while-away a rainy afternoon or evening.The front yard includes a quiet garden area that gets the afternoon sun. Adirondack chairs surround a central table. It’s a great place for an iced tea and a book!. Or sit in the shade on the front porch in the rocking chairs or on the park bench.The path down to our private dock is made easier with timber-tie steps. Our dock has a panoramic view of most of the lake, enjoys a nice breeze and gets sun until mid-afternoon. It’s perfect for swimming or boating. At the lake you will find the canoe and four kayaks. Paddles and lifejackets are stored up at the house. We also have plenty of swim noodles and floats. After dark, take a flashlight walk down to the dock and check out the stars or walk down early in the morning and talk to the flocks of geese (and the occasional early fisherman).Finally, enjoy exploring the area. There are three waterfalls on the lake which you can enjoy by renting a boat at the marina (you can kayak to the closest one, but the other two are further away). If hiking is your enjoyment, the house is in a gated community off two private mountain roads, each approximately 2 miles long. So, you can enjoy long walks without barely meeting another soul or there are many nearby hiking trails. Twenty-five minutes away, Cashiers is a wonderful small town with plenty of quaint stores (along with all the necessities) and lots of places to eat. Nearby Highlands has upscale stores and dining. And of course, Asheville – which is about a 90-minute drive – has innumerable things to enjoy.Come enjoy the comforts of home and the beauty of the North Carolina mountains.
