House rentals with a kayak

Peaceful home on a cute little farm.
Jami and her place were both wonderful! So quiet and peaceful and I loved sitting on the front porch watching the horses, chickens and cats. Definitely recommend this place!

Lakeside Landing-Hot Tub, Water Slide, Game Room
The pictures did not do this place justice, as it was more beutiful than the pictures represented. It was clean, vary large with many amenities and lots of water toys "several kayaks , a canoe, beach toys, life vest, and even a couple blow up tubes. There was a nice grill and firepit and Amanda even left the kiddoes smores fixing, which they enjoyed very much. We were there for Easrer weekend, and there did not seem to be anyone in any of the other cabins along the lake, so it was very private, which we appreciated. Give this place a try, and you won't be disappointed.

LAKE-FRONT! Hot tub, walk 2 town, chrgr sleeps 17
The Lake house was perfect for us! 8 of us stayed at the house for celebrating a graduation and 10-12 of us gathered there for lunch and breakfast and it was great fit. It is literally steps away from a sweet little lake, that had baby ducks and geese when we were there in the spring and was a lovely 15 minute walk to downtown Black Mountain. The hosts were great - when I reached out for recommendations on a restaurant or caterer to help us with after the graduation lunch, they wrote back quickly and made great recommendation. thank you! Oh, and they recently added a game table and my husband loved it and we always knew were to find him, haha.

Cozy Farmhouse w/ Private Lake and Hiking Trails
Elaina was a great host and the place is beautiful! We stayed for a weekend (3 couples) and enjoyed all the amenities. The location was great for the wedding we attended at Laurel Falls. Would absolutely stay again.

Stone Mountain Lodge w Mountain Views Fireplace
We loved this house! The lake setting was beautiful and the house was so cozy! They even had everything you could need to “move right in”… shampoo/body wash, every kitchen item you need, stocked fridge, serving bowls, games, blankets, so many EXTRAS!

Lakefront Escape • Hot Tub • Stunning views
Great location on Lake Lure. Quick access to the central part of the lake. Inside the house is on the small side but outdoor decks provide plenty of space to spread out. Everything you might need to enjoy your lake stay is provided, including the option for an on-site boat to rent. Parking is tight for larger vehicles - would suggest more compact size cars for easier maneuvering on street/parking area.

Lake Adger Lakefront Home- 11 miles to TIEC
Absolutely fantastic place to stay, right on the water in NC. My group loved the dock and patio, which felt both private and open to the beautiful nature surrounding it. Access to paddle boards and kayaks made for a great activity for everyone and the house itself was spacious enough for everyone in our group to relax comfortably. Would highly recommend!

Breathtaking View, Cozy, Dog Friendly
The house was nice and roomy. driveway was a little tricky. view of mountains and golf course was amazing. we had a storm on Saturday night and GODS light show was beyond incredible across the mountains viewing from the deck. Mark was a great host I would recommend the place 10 out of 10.
Cottage rentals with a kayak

Gorgeous Cottage on Private Lake - Walk to Town
This is the most serene comfortable home we have ever had the pleasure to visit. It is very private, beautifully appointed, and has every convenience you need or could wish for. It is situated right in the middle of quiet nature setting on a small lake with all kinds of birds, fish, turtles and other of Gods beautiful creatures. The host was easy to communicate with and very responsive. We plan to go back hopefully for a longer stay next time. We happened to be in Cashiers to attend a funeral. When we arrived there were fresh flowers and a personal condolence card sitting on the kitchen counter. Such a thoughtful gesture. Definitely recommend and we are going back! Oh and the beds are super comfortable which means a lot to us!!!

Lake Lure Cottage~Pontoon Available 2 Rent!
The Cottage at Lake Lure provided unmatched views and a relaxed and peaceful retreat. Outdoor spaces are beautiful but unfortunately the boat house that was present at the time of booking had been taken down by the time of our stay, reducing the ability to be on the lake. Access to paddleboards and kayaks a plus and the ability to rent a pontoon was a wonderful bonus. Wifi access was spotty and phone service challenging - this provided some challenges to individuals who planned to work a remote day from the booking. Overall a great stay with fire pit, grill, time on the water, and gorgeous scenery.

Lakeside Lodge-Not impacted by Hurricanes
We had a quick stay for camp drop off. Very comfortable home and beds. Clear instructions for getting there and staying.

Hike & Boat: Cozy Bear Lake Cottage!
Bear Lake is beautiful and isolated. Top notch staff, beautiful spaces and good amenities. The house was in fantastic shape and was everything advertised. The back porch is a fantastic place to hang out and enjoy a beautiful view of the mountains on the other side of the lake. A few things to consider - the road to the house is curvy and very steep. Also, cell service is very poor, so make sure to set your GPS and copy a picture with the door code before leaving the service areas.

Connestee/Lakefront~Hot tub~pedal pontoon~kayakSUP
This was the perfect location for our celebration of my mountain biking husband’s 50’th birthday. While the guys were biking the rest of our crew hiked the private trails at Conastee Falls within the neighborhood and paddle boarded and kayaked on Ticoa Lake. The house is located right on the lake, and adjacent to the boat launch and dock with a ladder, which was very convenient. The home has its own dock with kayaks and paddle boards to use. We did not use the Pedal pontoon. (It is noted in the description but for water access you need to be able to walk a good may steps down to the water from the house or drive down to the Ticoa Lake access one space over if it is too steep fo you to descend and ascend the stairs. We brought our dog with us and Jenni’s home accommodated her so well, with a large crate and dog toys and feeding bowls. The lower deck has the ability to fence in a space for pets while you relax in the hot tub or sit on the deck. The home had everything we needed.

Summer fun awaits at Lake J!
My family enjoyed a week at Ashley's place in Lake Junaluska. The kitchen is beautiful and well stocked, and everything in the house is very well-kept and clean! The pull through driveway is helpful on the narrow curvy road. The light on the front porch (which you are blocked from turning off) does glare into the second bedroom; keep that in mind if you have light sleepers.

Lake Summit Nest, Dock & Boathouse
I've spent many years using Airbnb. This was a very special experience! The cottage is perfection. The grounds and surrounding area are stunning! But the hosts, Melinda and Hal , made a lasting impression. You both made my birthday one of the best! I am forever grateful and can't wait to return.

Lakefront Cottage on Lake Agree
Annie was an absolute pleasure to have as a host. She was responsive, super friendly and very helpful in every way. Highly recommend booking with her! The house and location is great also!
Cabin rentals with a kayak

Serene Mountain Cabin with Hot Tub near Asheville
Beautiful place to stay. Hosts were very kind and immediate to respond, when needed. Would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a nice relaxing getaway.

Lakefront cabin getaway
The Lake house was one of the quietest and most peaceful air b-and-b's we have stayed at. The new back deck is the highlight of the lake cabin. The rest of the cabin is fully equipped and functional, but we hardly left the back deck. With its fenced in area and gate was perfect for the dog. The kayaks and dock are a nice addition. It is located close to good dining at Micas restaurant and Whiteside brewery. We came for the hiking in Panthertown area. We will be back again.

The Bears Den - Pet Friendly, Fire Pit, Kayaks!
We really enjoyed staying. It was very relaxing and very well clean well stocked and had everything you needed plenty of towels and linens and cleaning supply’s and etc.

5 Kings~Lake/Mtn Views~FirePit~EVCharger~PoolTable
The Airbnb was in a beautiful location and it was very clean. The instructions for check in, amenity use, and check out were easy to understand and very simple. The house was beautiful and the host was friendly and easy to communicate it. He gave us some local places to visit and recommended restaurants that were delicious. One of the best Airbnb’s I’ve stayed in. We had an excellent experience and would book this house again if we come back to the area.

Waterfront Luxury Retreat - 75 Acres, Hike & Kayak
Really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful location. Peaceful and with activities to keep busy throughout the day and evening.

Lure Me Inn Log Cabin, Lake/Mountain/Hot tub/View
We had a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, well furnished, and stocked with everything we could possibly need. It felt like home! The views from the house are incredible...even better than the photos. The lake has a small beach that was a highlight and there are some nice trails around the property. The host was very responsive and the information we received in advance very helpful. We were especially appreciative of the host's flexibility with a special request. I highly recommend this location and would love to return.

*Papa Bear Cabin-Game Room-Upper Hickory Nut Lake
5 stars. great cabin.

Old Chestnut Cabin; walk to Lake Junaluska!
I don’t have one negative thing to say about our stay, the cabin, or the hosts! Everything was great, from check-in to check-out! It’s such a peaceful, beautiful, rustic home, and a short walk or drive to the beautiful lake! The stairs definitely helped get my steps in! Lol. We had wonderful, quick communication from the hosts. We will definitely return next year!
