Sitting on a peninsula lot on Lake Norman's main channel, this house earns its sense of seclusion – over 600 feet of private shoreline wraps around it, with water visible from nearly every room. The vaulted great room pulls in natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows, while outside, a saltwater pool and spa sit right at the lake's edge. A covered dock comes ready for a rented boat, with kayaks and paddleboards on hand for the group. When the sun drops, the lakeside fire pit with Adirondack chairs takes over, and the converted garage games room keeps everyone busy long after dark.

Water's End

Described by New York Daily News as "folksy and fabulous", – we couldn't agree more when it comes to this home in Asheville. Combining the home's original features with refined luxury, the hardwood floors, the original structure and many small architectural details remain faithful to the spaces long-lasting history while modern interiors and home comforts present a serene space that makes relaxing easy. 

With the host's dedication to sustainability, this home's meticulous attention to detail speaks volumes of their values towards protecting the environment. The hosts are dedicated to recycling and encourage guests to do so. In addition, the proximity to downtown Asheville, just a two-block stroll, means there is little need to use a car here either as you'll have an abundance of local shops and award-winning restaurants, all within reasonable walking distance. 

Make the most of the property's expansive grounds and charming historic renovations from the garden or rooftop terrace, making the perfect spot for an afternoon tipple when the weather is kind. Stay for the sunset to take in the stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and downtown Asheville.  



Cinnamon Swirl

Soaking in the hot tub as the sun drops behind the Blue Ridge Mountains is the kind of moment this house was made for. Perched on a wooded lot with sweeping mountain vistas, it gives a group serious room to breathe – two separate living areas, multiple balconies, and a private outdoor pool all surrounded by trees. When the mountain air turns cool, a fireplace keeps things cosy inside, and Asheville is just a short drive away for restaurants, breweries, and the River Arts District.

Blue Ridge Reverie

Tucked into the Tennessee mountains, this custom-built lodge sets itself apart from the moment you arrive – a secluded retreat surrounded by forest, with the Smoky Mountains rising almost close enough to touch. The double-height great room, anchored by a floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace, is made for evenings spent in from the mountain air. An indoor pool lets you swim with the tree canopy in view, while a covered hot tub deck and dedicated arcade room give groups plenty to do once the sun dips. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a forty-five-minute drive away.

Hickory Moon

Tucked into the Tennessee hills, this cabin earns its mountain retreat credentials quickly. Vaulted ceilings and a stone fireplace anchor the main living area, while huge windows keep the surrounding woodland in constant view – from the living room, the dining area, and the lofted perch above that comes into its own when snow settles on the trees. Multiple decks and a front porch with rocking chairs give you plenty of spots to breathe it all in, and a private hot tub and sauna mean the end of a long hike is well taken care of. Downtown Gatlinburg is a fifteen-minute drive.

Snowfall & Mountain Breeze

Sitting at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on the shores of Lake Norman, this house is built around the water in every sense. A private dock and on-site canoes invite early-morning paddles before the rest of the group stirs, while the multi-level deck – with outdoor dining for twelve and a fire pit – keeps things going long after dark. Inside, a stone fireplace and lake-framing windows anchor the great room, and a dedicated game room and movie room mean there's no shortage of ways to fill an evening together.

Canoe & Stone

Set directly on the Lake Norman waterfront, this house is built around the idea that bigger groups deserve more to do. An in-ground pool sits at the heart of the outdoor deck, ringed by loungers and dining areas that look straight out across the water – ideal for long, unhurried afternoons. When the sun drops, the basement games room pulls people in with ping pong and a large screen. Six king bedrooms across the main level mean everyone sleeps comfortably, with the main suite catching pool views through its windows. Topping it all off is the lakeside fire pit – the perfect way to end the day.

Lake Norman Nocturne

Comprising two custom-built townhouses sitting side by side in the Blue Ridge foothills, this home is made for groups who want breathing room without being apart. Each home has its own deck looking out over tree-lined grounds – ideal when the mountain air cools and the outdoor fireplace comes into its own. The Blue Ridge Parkway and the Mountain-To-Sea Trail are half a mile away, while downtown Asheville's breweries and restaurants are a six-minute drive, and the Biltmore Estate sits just four miles from the front door.

Sweetgum and Sycamore

Treat yourself to the stay of a lifetime at this mountainside cabin in the heart of rural Tennessee, ten miles from downtown Gatlinburg. Boasting breath-taking views of Mount Le Conte and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this place is perfect for fans of the great outdoors, offering plenty of opportunities to get reacquainted with Mother Nature. Soak up gorgeous mountain vistas from your very own private deck or make your way to Cosby Creek – the best local fishing spot – to prove your angling prowess to your fellow guests. Oh, and if you’re looking for somewhere to practise your golf swing, the Bent Creek Golf Course is just a short drive away. Ideal. 

The fun doesn’t stop when it’s time to head home, though – if anything, it’s just getting started. Show off your dunking skills on the communal basketball court, make a splash at the outdoor pool, or cosy up in the living room and while away the afternoon with a board game by the fire. Then when it’s time to eat, head out onto the deck and fire up the barbecue as the sun dips down between the mountains. Who knows – you might even catch a glimpse of a black bear or two…

Black Bear Chalet

If you’re looking for views that’ll take your breath away, this place is just what the doctor ordered. Perched on the edge of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this cabin-style home has everything you need for a relaxing family retreat to rolling Gatlinburg, boasting two gorgeous decks with hot tub and front row seats to stunning Mount Le Conte. 

Whether you’re travelling with little ones or kids at heart, there’s plenty to keep you busy here from the outdoor pool table to the Disney-Plus-equipped HDTV. While away the afternoon with a board game or two by the fire, then fire up the grill and rustle up your favourite barbecue dishes as you gaze out at the spectacular scenery. 

If you fancy getting out and about, there are plenty of hiking trails at your fingertips, not to mention a whole host of attractions on Gatlinburg’s main strip which is just two minutes away by car. Get your heart racing with a ride on the Moonshine Mountain Coaster then come home and unwind with a glass of whiskey on the back deck. We can’t think of anything more Tennessee than that.

Roaring River Lodge

Two cabins, ten bedrooms, and room for twenty-two guests across the wooded hills of Sevierville – this is a serious setup for a big group that wants to stay together without living in each other's pockets. Wraparound decks look out over the tree canopy towards the mountains, making the case for long alfresco dinners and slow mornings with coffee in hand. Evenings settle naturally around the outdoor fireplace or inside the private cinema room. Pigeon Forge's attractions are a short drive away when the group is ready to venture out.

Smoky Mountain Vistas

Sitting right on the edge of Lake Norman, this house gives you direct water access from the moment you arrive – dock your pontoon, grab a paddleboard, or simply swim from the backyard. Days out on the lake give way to evenings in the hot tub, and the covered patio is an easy spot for alfresco dining with the barbecue going and the water in sight. Inside, the kitchen handles big-group breakfasts without fuss, and there's enough going on – ping-pong, board games, the lake itself – to keep everyone happily occupied.
