Welcome to Lakeside at Hawksnest!

Lakeside at Hawksnest is a charming mountain cabin centrally located in The Lakes community on Seven Devils, between Boone and Banner Elk, and close to Blowing Rock, Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, Grandfather Mountain, Beech Mountain Ski Resort, and much more. Hawksnest Snow Tubing and Zip Lines, Otter Falls hiking and walking trails, and the Seven Devils Town Park are all a short drive away from the cabin, also on Seven Devils.

The main floor queen bedroom features an HDTV and an adjacent full bathroom with a tub/shower combo. Step out from the dining area to the covered deck and relax in the porch swing or rocking chairs. Cook dinner on the gas grill and serve it at the outdoor dining table. Year-round mountain and lake views await guests from the back decks of Lakeside at Hawksnest!

Not At That Price
The biggest issue I had was that it was not clean. The garbage can was overflowing with the previous tenant(s) trash and there was a greasy film on every surface of the kitchen. We spent a lot of time recleaning dishes and surfaces just to be able to use the kitchen. Overall, the cabin is logistically in a good location and has the basic necessities for a rental. I just think the price is too high when you don't maintain the property well.

Don’t be fooled!!
The pictures show a completely different cabin that what you stay in. Why would I bring two dogs where there is no where for them to run? You have to walk them on a road for potty time. The cabin was DISGUSTING. I called as well as my wife to the rental place with no help. The day we arrived, we opened the door and was hit with an awful smell that wasn’t just cabin musk (the “master” had its own foul smell). Yes, I know it’s pet friendly, this smell wasn’t pet scents. The trash can was covered in grease or oil that I would’ve had to go buy special degreaser to clean. (We did go buy fabreeze and a plug in because the smel was terrible). The dishwasher was FULL of dishes, I suppose it was our job to put those away? The hot tub wasn’t in a good location, nor was it clean. After speaking to two different agents at two separate times with no help, we gave up. Now I will say they offered to come clean it, but we didn’t feel comfortable having a stranger in the cabin while we were there or not there, especially having our dogs there. And judging by the lack of response, who’s to say they would’ve even showed up during our visit. We sent pictures to a random number we were asked to send pictures to with no response. I am not impressed with the cabin as well as the rental agency.

A good escape into the mountains.
We used this property for an easy commute to the ski businesses in the area. Good breakfast restaurant at the bottom of the mountain and quick access to gas stations and convenience stores.

Do not rent this cabin
I wish I could leave a zero star review. My family stayed at the Lakeside at Hawksnest cabin 1 night - and it was just nasty. The entire cabin was filthy, nothing but the black mold growing! Everything was stained , smelled horrible. After one sleepless night we contacted VRBO and the Carolina Cabin Rentals broker was able to moved us to the real nice place. It was very obvious that Lakeside at Hawksnest was being run by a money greedy owner with no care for upkeep. Please don't rent this cabin. I have plenty of pictures just showing the filth

Overall good experience...
Overall, we enjoyed this cozy cabin for a family vacation. The location and condition of the cabin were great. There were small issues that kept our trip from being more enjoyable: there were substantial leaks from the top floor bathroom when using the shower, there were no batteries in most of the TV remotes and/or they were not working, the dishwasher was still full with the previous guests dishes, the ping pong net was broken, and there were no garbage bags for the trash can in the kitchen. Overall a good experience, but attention to some details could have made it better.

Great hostessing spot for large groups
We had 12 people in our group for a long weekend, and this was the perfect spot for hanging out and cooking meals. There were lots of beds and a good kitchen with plenty plates and other supplies. Beautiful decks too! It was unclear what “lake access” meant (we thought we could use the neighborhood club lake access but we were asked to leave because it’s for club members only)

Great ski cabin
Super nice property with a good pond view out back. Extremely steep hills to get to, I have AWD but would've needed chains if it snowed more. Don't disregard chain warning. Pull out beds can be more cramped than it looks but it fit perfect for 8. Owner communicates in normal time and allowed us to purchase one more day. Would stay again

Need improvement
Overall the cabin was ok. However the staff needs to pay more attention to cleaning the property, when we open the home it smell like mildew, there is mold on king master bath windows, the hot tub was not hot enough and cloudy water, there is not a lot of lighting in the kitchen we were cooking almost in the dark, the main leaving area the ac gave us issues to start. In the main floor bathroom the rug was clean but it had pet pee stain, there is leak coming from the main floor to the laundry room. This issues did not make our stay 100% satisfied.

Nice quiet get away,
We loved the location. The cabin could use a good cleaning and updated pictures on VRBO. I was expecting a good view of the pond but the yard has grown up so the you only have a few glimpses.

Nice but the pictures on the site are old
The place was ok. The location was good because we weren’t too far from family friendly activities. To get to downtown Boone was like a 15-20min ride. The home could use a few upgrades. Under cabinet lighting would help with meal prep. It was so dark I couldn’t see what I was cooking. The shelves where pots were stored had fallen down. The bath tub didn’t drain and the floors of the tub and showers was stained.

Totally misrepresented
We booked this property with our teen boys in mind, with the assurance that we could fish in the lake pictured behind the cabin. I specifically asked if we could fish , and I was told yes. I asked if we could bring kayaks to use on the lake and was told yes that we could use them on that lake pictured behind the house. Only to arrive to realize that the lake behind the house in the picture is a private members only property. We were not able to use it. There was a small pond a way from the house where I couldn’t see what the kids were doing. I was very disappointed at being deceived. There is nowhere for kids to play. There was barely a place for the dog to go the bathroom it is literally on the side of a mountain. There’s not even access to that lake pictured in the back from the house. It’s a drive away. So misleading. Not only that but when my husband took the kids down to that lake pictured, the members who told them it was private property said that the cabin rentals deceive people all the time. They are constantly having to correct what renters have been told, telling people that it’s private property despite the fact that they were told by the rental agency they could have full use of the lakes in this development. Other than the house being super tired and needing a lot of repairs, it was clean and the management refunded $75 towards our stay because we could not use the lake. But there is no reason to rent this house this time of year; the drive up is treacherous and if you can’t use the lakes there’s really no reason to be up there: It took 10 mins of switchback dangerous road just to get up there. We won’t be back.

Mountain View Retreat
This property was mostly in good shape. A few problems we encountered include, the hot tub did not heat even after a service call. Only one roll of TP for the bathrooms, our trip was for 5 night! The futon was broken, the only way to use it was to pull the cushion to the floor. The hand rail to downstairs was torn off the wall leaving two big holes in the wall. This house definitely needs some TLC!

Fun weekend
The house was very clean which was awesome. It was a little odd that it was still decorated for Christmas on Presidents weekend. There are a number of things in the house that could use some updating like an ottoman that was burned and some of the comforters were falling apart. In general the location and house were good.

Great mountain experience
Had a phenomenal trip up the mountains with this cabin. Place was super clean and rental company was quick with any questions of assistance (nothing big, firewood and extra car parking). Town does great job making sure roads were safe with the snow we did get for our trips back down the mountain. Only advises if traveling with guys make sure the bring a extra towel if don’t want have do towel load everyday. All the girls has brought 1-2 and still had do towels for a group size of 7.

Great property, faulty hot tub
We had a party of 6 adults and 5 children stay at this property for a long weekend in February 2019. The property is spacious and welcoming. We enjoyed the downstairs play room and the open layout of the kitchen and living room. Everyone had plenty of space to sleep. The only downside is the faulty hot tub. We discovered it on day 2 and communicated with the management company, who was very responsive. They tried to fix it that day and kept convincing us that it will work, even in light of our repeated calls and texts throughout the day to let them know that there was no change. The same thing continued on the 3rd day. I'm sad we wasted so much time coordinating about this and in the end we got a meager refund that in no way represents the premium that they charge for having the tub on property. Overall, we had a good time but a lot of headache (and unmet expectations from excited guests ready to soak in the tub) could have been avoided had the management actually checked the status of the tub before our check in (as per their policy).

Too expensive, too small
The cabin is way smaller than it looks in the pictures. The wide lens will do the trick. To get an idea of how small it is, look at the outside shot. It's more relevant. Also, the heating system it's kind of outdated. It will accommodate 12 people but it will be crowded.
