Mountain Days at Lake James | Pet Friendly, Gas Grill & Fire Pit

Newly constructed and filled with luxe furnishings and rustic chic design elements, this upscale mountain home seamlessly incorporates modern luxury with craftsman-style charm. Ideal for family vacations, multiple couples traveling together, or those who have the flexibility to work remotely, Mountain Days is also the perfect vacation spot for those who want to bring the whole family along-including the pups! Upon entering the home, you'll immediately be greeted by the floor-to-ceiling windows that offer spectacular woodland views along with the spacious open layout. The gourmet kitchen offers everything you could possibly need and more—from the gas range stove to the stainless appliances to the coffee cart equipped with a grinder, French Press, and dual machine drip and Keurig with reusable filters to the added bonuses like an Instapot and waffle iron-cooking will be a pleasure instead of a chore.

The dining area accommodates up to 6 and provides the perfect place to savor delicious food and great conversation while the chic living area provides the perfect spot to cozy up around the gas logs fireplace and take advantage of the 50" Smart TV, DVD player, and movie collection, board games, and easy deck access. Venture outside to find the impeccably-appointed covered deck area with a 6-person high-top dining table that's perfect for enjoying your meals together while taking advantage of the temperate mountain climate. In addition to the dining table, there is also a grilling station with a sleek new gas grill and wine cooler and a corner nook perfect spot for morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening.

Just off the deck is the gorgeous stone fire pit area with Adirondack seating for up to 4 that reveals stunning views of Table Rock and Hawksbill Mountain. Other outdoor features include exclusive access to Arbor community amenities such as the covered pavilion area with wood-burning fireplace and park-style grills. While beautiful, the remote location of most mountain homes often means sacrificing internet connection and speed, but at Mountain Days, their high-speed internet starts at over 100 MBPS enabling seamless streaming, web surfing, and zoom video conferencing.

Enjoy the option of staying connected and working remotely while on your retreat or delight in some much-needed R&R without any distractions—the choice is yours! Located just 45 minutes outside of Asheville in Nebo, NC, this stunning lakeside gem is the perfect place to vacation and enjoy everything the Lake James area has to offer. Enjoy nearby hiking trails like the Fonta Flora Trail Loop or John Rock Trail before grabbing a refreshing craft beer at Fonta Flora's open-air brewery at Whippoorwill Farm. If you're interested in experiencing small-town charm during your stay, take a short 10-minute drive to explore the shops, galleries, restaurants, and breweries like Mica Town Brewing Company and Spillway Bridge & Co. in downtown Marion.

Please note: This home is pet-friendly with an additional fee. This home has exterior cameras facing the driveway & a ring doorbell camera. This home is located within the Arbor subdivision of Lake James and offers exclusive access to community amenities that include a covered pavilion area with a wood-burning fireplace and several park-style grills. While this home is close to Lake James, it is not lakefront and does not offer its own private boat dock.

2nd half (Peace & Quiet portion) of Vacation
This is an excellent vacation home near Lake James, and Mountains of NC. Quick access to cities & towns as needed, and also easy to Lake James. House is exactly (if not better) than advertised. Everything needed is available and well thought out. Lake James Boat Rentals is very customer friendly! Henry is the man!!

Exclusive Neighborhood
Beautiful home that provides private and social gathering spots to meet everyones need. Hiking trails within the community and a backyard camp were the perfect pairing to get a family together.

Good times!
We went swimming, boating, fishing, and hung out at the marina with friends! Even had a band there one night! Good times! My son especially had a good time as he caught a huge 27” walleye out of the lake! And the cabin had plenty of room, great privacy, comfortable beds, an awesome fire pit, and corn hole boards. Lots of great rest and relaxation after being on the lake!

Escape the Florida Heat
Trophy house, functional floor plan, and well-equipped. We spent most of our 6 day stay puttering around Lake James in a rented pontoon that stored nicely at the included slip—also, a good location to day-trip to Ashville, Mt Mitchell, and Little Switzerland. The management team was there if needed, but the house was perfect and no help was necessary. Thank you!

Dealing with Greystone is a pleasure. This house had so many special touches that it truly made our visit so enjoyable. Greystone has some nice properties for family rentals and I love using them. Very attentive and excellent correspondence. This particular property has small fans by every bed. So nice since I forgot mine. Nightlights in the bedroom areas. Big dressers and closets. All light switches were identified. Plenty of nice linens. Well stocked kitchen. Incredibly clean and well maintained. Loved it

Beautiful cabin…excellent location!
What an enjoyable stay! The cabin was absolutely beautiful and found everything we needed. It’s location by Lake James enabled us to enjoy a day on the boat and a day at the beach. We like to hike, but the hot weather kept us from doing long trails, but they were very accessible. We will definitely plan to stay again!!

Great house and neighborhood!
We loved this house for a weekend with friends to get away. The fire pit area is well stocked with wood and a great addition with plenty of room to gather around with friends! The kitchen is overstocked with plenty of utensils needed for whatever you’d like to cook, and the bedrooms are very roomy with each having their own bathroom. There is a gate code to get into the neighborhood which we didn’t have, and was the only trouble we had getting into the neighborhood. Otherwise getting into the house itself was a breeze. The neighborhood is really nice and walkable, and the community area by the lake is very inviting for groups! Overall we loved the house and would highly recommend it!
