Cabin vacation rentals in Santeetlah Lake

Absolutely loved my stay! The view is outstanding, and the house is great. I will definitely try to visit again!

Beautiful place! Levi & Darah reached out with info and helpful tips well ahead of time and were very responsive throughout our stay. The cabin itself is gorgeous, very clean with nice furniture and updated decor. Very comfortable and spacious, well equipped kitchen. We stayed 4 nights while on vacation and spent a lot of that time on the back porch enjoying the incredible views! Some noise during the day - traffic and landscaping from neighborhoods nearby - but quiet at night. Seriously consider driving a 4WD/AWD vehicle up to the cabin because it really is steep and between moss growing on the road & any amount of rain it can get really slick. It rained a lot during our stay and our Honda Civic made it up but was a nail biter every time. Overall an excellent experience, we really enjoyed our stay! Great place to retreat and minutes away from restaurants and things to do in Townsend.

Awesome stay! Loved the cabin. If we needed anything, we had our questions answered diligently.

Love it. We will be back . Ty so much

We had a lovely stay. Very close to everything Town has to offer but far enough off the paved road to feel secluded.

Very peaceful and relaxing. There are several houses nearby, but privacy was not an issue. The view was amazing! It is a one lane drive from the road 1 mile up to the house and extremely curvy, but road is paved all the way to the the house. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Best experience I've had with AirBnB. Michelle was friendly and polite. The cabin was exactly as described, clean and great for our weekend getaway. 5/5 would recommend.

Me and my husband searched for the perfect romantic getaway for our late honeymoon/ 1 year anniversary. When we came across Knotty But Nice we were sold! The view was immaculate, pictures do not do justice. The house was extremely clean and cozy. The hot tub was clean and so relaxing. Overall peaceful and private! The drive up was pretty scary the first time, I’m definitely glad that we had an SUV! But 10/10 recommend! We are already planning another trip in the fall. Thanks Dana & Trish! 😊

This cabin was the perfect weekend getaway with stunning views and true mountain home feel! Gina provided an extensive list of recommendations ranging from local restaurants to great hikes. Also having a home where I could bring my dog was a huge plus! I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

My husband and I and our two dogs came in for a quiet weekend for me to study and just chill. It was absolutely perfect. It’s just a cute cozy little cabin! The stairs going upstairs to the bedrooms are steep, but we had no issue with them. I would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again. We drove into Helen, which was about a hour drive due to the windy roads but very doable. Alex was great and check-in was easy. If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, this is it!

Heather’s place was a little slice of heaven! If you are looking for peace, beauty, and still close to town this is perfect! I felt like I could stay there forever!! It was the perfect place to relax after an AT section hike! Highly recommended!!

adorable cabin surrounded by trees with a very convenient dog park across from the driveway. i loved staying at this cabin! it truly made our trip so much better. the hosts were very friendly & helpful. there's grocery stores >5 min from cabin & a cute downtown area with shops & eats all close by. i would live there if i could!

This was such a wonderful place to stay! The views were amazing and the hot tub was very clean. The cabin was so spacious and such a cozy spot for our overnight stay. Would absolutely recommend!!

Mary was a great host & we absolutely loved Luna Lodge for a quick weekend getaway! Would recommend to any and every one!

The cabin is in a peaceful, secluded location. There are neighbors around, but it is hard to tell for the most part. The road to get up to the place i could see as challenging in certain weather or vehicles, but the directions are very descriptive and on point. We were able to enjoy the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, the city of Cherokee, Bryson city, and Maggie Valley, as well as go searching for waterfalls near Highland. The area is beautiful no matter which direction you go! Most favorite restaurants during the trip was Highlands Smokehouse in Highlands for some amazing brisket and Circle H Chophouse in Cherokee, NC--bonus points for this one due to watching elk walk right by the windows while dining! Overall, it was a great place to stay. The host is super responsive with any questions or concerns and active in ensuring that you have a great experience!

We had a wonderful time at Sandra's place. The cabin is super clean, well equipped and easily accessible, even with a lower ground clearance sports car. The car porch is a nice touch as well. Our only hiccup was some WiFi issues, we were expecting something a bit more stable since the cabin has Starlink, but that has more to do with Starlink itself I guess. All in all, great place to stay and super friendly host!

It was a beautiful home and location! The views are breathtaking. Zack was responsive, we wanted to do kayaking and Zack recommended Marina that had kayaks available for rent just 10 min walking distance. The house had private hot tub on the deck, very clean. Everything is the house was spotless. Fire pit had firewood available. There was nothing negative, just the most perfect stay!

The house is very nice, beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture, pretty view, great kitchen, everything you need is available. Nice lake access just a short drive away. You definitely need 4wd drive getting up the driveway. Very peaceful setting, but you can hear neighbors talking and dogs barking.

Great views! The bunk beds are small and the ladder to get up can be difficult, but overall great place and stay!

This is a nice lake house right on the water. The view of the mountains is fantastic and we saw one of the most beautiful sunsets we’ve ever seen? The house is comfortable and well stocked. Robbinsville is a nice little mountain town. Tapoco Tavern is a really nice restaurant about seven miles away on a beautiful river setting. It was so good we went there twice during our five day stay. Jodi is very responsive and answered our questions promptly. Overall one of our favorite Airbnbs.

The cabin is absolutely beautiful and very relaxing with the creek running right in the yard. We did lots of relaxing by the creek and front porch sitting enjoying the beautiful sunrises. I will definitely be visiting this little paradise again. Thank you Dallas and Dana for sharing your beautiful cabin with us.

The views are SPECTACULAR! Awesome sunrises and sunsets, hands down the best view of all of our cabin stays in the Smoky Mtns. The place is easy to find, narrow winding road but not treacherous. Definitely make sure you have a full tank of gas especially if you’re planning to head elsewhere like down to the Fontana Dam area because gas stations are few and far between. Pillows were pretty flat, but luckily we had our own in the car. The place is simple, but everything felt very cozy clean and comfortable. The owners have made updates to the place where it really counts like a new porch and flooring. Jacuzzi was a wonderful place to unwind! Very peaceful and super quiet, despite having neighbors nearby. Well worth it - we stayed just one night before heading further east & was the perfect way to kick off our mountain vacation!

We had the most amazing mountain getaway at this beautiful bothy in Robbinsville, NC. Tucked away on 28 private acres, the setting was incredibly peaceful and surrounded by nature—exactly what we needed to unplug and relax. The cabin itself was spotless, modern, and thoughtfully designed, with huge windows that let in so much natural light and gave us stunning views of the nature around. It was stocked with absolutely everything we could possibly need, from kitchen essentials to cozy touches that made it feel like home. You can tell a lot of care went into making this space special. Our host was outstanding—so friendly, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. You don’t always find that level of hospitality, and we really appreciated it. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape in the mountains, this is the place. We’re already dreaming of coming back!

Our stay at the Jessi’s Bee House was amazing. She was extremely thoughtful in all of her instructions and even had a guide full of things to do with their locations. She was excellent at communicating with us and checked in with us before and during the trip. The place itself was very clean and so, so cozy! It is a small place, but every spot has a purpose and it didn’t feel at all cramped. She had anything we could have needed in the kitchen, plenty of towels, and so much more. It really felt like a home. Service is basically nonexistent in the area, but she made sure we knew this ahead of time. Google maps will also take you down the wrong driveway so the place can be confusing to get to, but she also makes sure you know this ahead of time. Highly recommend!
