A short distance from water skiing, rafting, and more, this family-friendly vacation home lets you experience it all. Nantahala National Forest is just steps away and Mountain Harbour Driving Range is within an easy 15-minute walk, so leave your car at the property, which offers covered onsite parking.

After you return, unwind in the hot tub or sip a drink on the deck or patio, and don't forget about the outdoor furniture. When you come inside, connect to the free WiFi or get cozy in front of the cable/satellite TV (video library available). There's also a pool table, video games, and a DVD player for your enjoyment.

A living room, a dining area, a gas grill, and a fireplace are featured at this 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom rental. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an ice maker, and a lobster pot. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
