Lakeside Retreat at The Ginkgo Cottage - Location, location, location

Retreat to a rare Lake Junaluska find, boasting an unobstructed, expansive Lake and Mountain View. With a location just off of North Lakeside Drive, this is the perfect spot for a retreat, a long weekend, or an extended vacation in the Blue Ridge Mountains. You have easy access to all of the Junaluska amenities, and an unbeatable view from the oversized windows. This relaxing mountain home overlooks the Lake, the Rose Walk, and historic Stuart Spring.

Come enjoy all that the mountains of Western North Carolina have to offer in this conveniently located lakeside gem. The home has solid wood craftsmanship throughout, with vaulted and beamed ceilings, and a wood burning fire place. The open floor plan allows for hours of quality time with friends and family, while enjoying the stunning lake view.

This well maintained historic (1953) home is clean and well stocked with the items that we find essential when we travel. The Kitchen is equipped with modern appliances for your use. Several original and antique furniture pieces remain in the home, along with updated beds, three flat screen TVs, and WiFi access.

The home has 3 bedrooms on the main level. Two of which are accessible just off of the living room, and flank the upstairs full bath. The Master bedroom has an amazing lake view, and a half-bath.

At the bottom of the stairs, you will find a converted garage space which leads to the downstairs/basement bedroom. This bedroom has the most privacy and a full bath; although it is located below grade.

NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW:
Our home is steps away from the community pool (seasonal/fee), boat rentals (seasonal/fee), lake access, putt-putt golf, tennis courts, and playground. We have putt-putt supplies for your use, so play as much as you want, when you want. Two adult bicycles are also available with the property.

Take the short walk to Corneille Bryan Native Garden, or enjoy access to the 5-miles of community maintained walking trails that surround the lake. The Golf Course is a quick drive across the street from the main Junaluska community entrance.

From the Parkway, drive along the scenic 26 mile route to the Cherokee Reservation. You can be at the Cataloochee Ski Area in 20 minutes (Cataloochee snow tubing is only 10 minutes from the house). Ingles Grocery Store and Walmart Supercenter are easily accessible within 10 minutes.
