What guests think
House On Blue Waters is a very special lake front property with amazing views, where guests consistently praise the serene setting, plentiful lake gear and dock access, clean and comfortable interiors, and a responsive host who helps make stays easy.
The location is peaceful yet convenient to hiking trails, waterfalls, and scenic drives such as the Tail of the Dragon and the Cherohala Skyway, with a marina and grocery store within a short drive. A few guests mention practical constraints like tight parking for trailers, a spot that can be hard to find, and the compact home lacking a dishwasher. Expect a relaxing, view-forward, lake-centered stay.

We love staying at the house on blue waters. It has everything we need including laundry and an amazing view. I have dozens of pictures from the deck as I watched the clouds dance and the sun set. We will be returning next year for our 3rd year.

This is a great place to stay with all the water toys you could ask for! The house is clean and open with fantastic views from all rooms and plenty of space for guests to relax and chat either inside or outside. We focused on time at the water and all the kayaks, stand-up paddle boards, canoes and lily pad gave us plenty of options for things to do. A huge perk with this home is the amazing organization of all these different toys! They are easy to get to and get out in the water, but also helps them stay clean and ready for use from the next guests. The deck area has multiple seating areas depending on if you want sun or not and the dock was perfect for these hot summer days in the water. The home was very comfortable for us overall and Mark was very clear with communication and asks for the check-out process. We hope to be back again!

We had another fabulous stay at Mark's house on the lake -- 5 stars and more! It is a wonderfully comfortable and bright home with lots of great outdoor space. We enjoyed the beautiful lake view from the house, deck, and dock each day. Plus, we had so much fun with the paddle boards and kayaks. Mark is a super responsive and helpful host -- and I'll be reserving a week again next year for sure!

The lakehouse offered everything we needed for a lovely family trip. Beautiful view of the mountains and lake. Loved the dock and lake equipment! First time trying out a kayak and paddleboard. We paddled with the kayaks to a jumping rock in the next cove over. My son enjoyed fishing off the dock. We also enjoyed a fire in the chiminea. Grocery store was just 10 minutes away. Rented a pontoon.

Wonderfully warm and often full sun for most of our stay (late October). We enjoyed trying the two kayaks, then settled on the square stern canoe for a couple of longer trips (6 miles each). We hiked several trails in the general area, and had a very pleasant Halloween evening dinner at Tapoco Lodge & Tavern. We made a longer drive to Maggie Valley to visit the Wheels Through Time motorcycle museum. Among the conveniences we enjoyed were the coffee maker, the gas grill on the outdoor deck, and the laundry room. The house was well appointed, quiet, and clean. The view to the west, from the kitchen/dining room/great room, through the large sliding glass doors was wonderful. And of course, sitting outside on the deck to watch the sun set was amazing. The comfort and convenience of this house helped to make our honeymoon memorable!

Nice place, very convenient for lake activities. Just a suggestion on those bringing a boat…Go straight to the Marina and drop the boat and trailer prior to going to the house. That road is tricky pulling a trailer.

The House on Blue Waters is modest at first blush, but the view of the crystal clear lake and mountains in this fall season made a lasting impression. Canoes and kayaks, with safety gear on site allowed the family to launch onto the lake from the dock and become one with that view! Lots of little details, like the Tesla charger, to a dedicated gas feed for the Weber grill and fireplace indoors left my wife, cousin's family, and I wanting for nothing. This house is essentialism embodied, but essentially also a perfect getaway.

Our stay was over the arctic cold Christmas weekend. We couldn’t have been in a better place. The stunning views of the lake surrounded by mountains was breathtakingly beautiful. The cabin was cozy and warm- and the gas fireplace added the perfect touch. Everything was clean and comfortable. Planning to return in summer months for life on the water experience. Can’t wait.

Once again Lake Santeelah was a peaceful and fun vacation site. The house was small but worked perfectly for having our children and their families come one at a time, leaving us a couple of nights alone. There are so many amazing lake “toys” available that we only brought our favorite tubes. There were plenty of linens and the futon couch was comfortable. Cute house in a quiet cove. Enjoy! We did:)

Loved this place. The view from the back is easily the best out of all the other homes in the cove. The interior is very comfortable with lots of room and a well stocked kitchen. It may have just been the time of year but it was very quiet around the cove and incredibly peaceful. It’s perfectly located around the nearby scenic drives as well so it’s an ideal location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at House on Blue Waters. We felt right at home, and the hosts had things we needed for our stay, such as dish soap and a new sponge, which is a plus. When we had a question, they were quick to respond. And, oh, the view! We probably could have spent our entire time in NC on the deck, on the dock, or on the water and been content. We've stayed in many rentals across the USA, and I have to agree with my husband that this is one of the best!

We had another fabulous stay at Mark's house on the lake -- 5 stars and more! It is a wonderfully comfortable and bright home with lots of great outdoor space. We enjoyed the beautiful lake view from the house, deck, and dock each day. Plus, we had so much fun with the paddle boards and kayaks. Mark is a super responsive and helpful host -- and I'll be reserving a week again next year for sure!

This was our second visit. The lake house is wonderful, clean, comfortable and stocked with everything you could possibly need. I look forward to renting again next year. Communication with Mark was easy.

We fell in love with this property last summer and couldn’t wait to return this year. We enjoy how peaceful Lake Santeetlah is. All the amenities offered at this property allow you enjoy the lake to the fullest. From paddling to watching sunsets on the dock, there is never a dull moment. Communication with the owners is always quick and they provide the most relaxing experience. Our family is already counting down the days until next summer. It truly feels like a home away from home.

Location
Peaceful lakefront setting with easy access to hiking trails, waterfalls, grocery, marina, and popular routes like the Tail of the Dragon and the Cherohala Skyway. Some guests found it a bit hard to locate and towing a trailer on the road can be tricky.

The lakehouse offered everything we needed for a lovely family trip. Beautiful view of the mountains and lake. Loved the dock and lake equipment! First time trying out a kayak and paddleboard. We paddled with the kayaks to a jumping rock in the next cove over. My son enjoyed fishing off the dock. We also enjoyed a fire in the chiminea. Grocery store was just 10 minutes away. Rented a pontoon.

Loved this place. The view from the back is easily the best out of all the other homes in the cove. The interior is very comfortable with lots of room and a well stocked kitchen. It may have just been the time of year but it was very quiet around the cove and incredibly peaceful. It’s perfectly located around the nearby scenic drives as well so it’s an ideal location.

Nice place, very convenient for lake activities. Just a suggestion on those bringing a boat…Go straight to the Marina and drop the boat and trailer prior to going to the house. That road is tricky pulling a trailer.

Lake Santeetlah is a very relaxed place to take a break from the daily rat race. The property is ideally located and well appointed with the necessary comforts. Everyone we met at the lake was very friendly and helpful. A truly relaxing break.

The House on Blue Waters is modest at first blush, but the view of the crystal clear lake and mountains in this fall season made a lasting impression. Canoes and kayaks, with safety gear on site allowed the family to launch onto the lake from the dock and become one with that view! Lots of little details, like the Tesla charger, to a dedicated gas feed for the Weber grill and fireplace indoors left my wife, cousin's family, and I wanting for nothing. This house is essentialism embodied, but essentially also a perfect getaway.
