Original stonework can be found throughout the property, including around the fire pit and outdoor chimney, and creates a charming outdoor space to unwind after a fun-filled day on the lake!

Work trip

Lovely community, nice and quite very cozy. Great location next to Lake James. Would have loved to use the screened in porch but weather did not permit. Have already recommended to friends.

A little piece of heaven on earth.

IT. WAS. PERFECT. We loved it. Greybeard and the owner checked on us after the big t-storm and power outage. So much history in the area and we did not want to leave this am. Will be back!
