About this lodge

This incredible vacation log home has expansive decks overlooking beautiful Lake Glenville and is surrounded by 16 ranges of mountains. Take in the beautiful sunsets over the lake as you dine on one of the covered decks or expansive stone while patio sitting around the fire pit. If privacy is what you desire, Heaven's Gate is situated on 8 acres for the kids to run and play. The kids (and adults too) will love the game room which has a pool table, shuffleboard table, and an electronic plastic tipped dartboard as well as a flat screen tv.
The expansive living room is right out of a magazine with soaring ceilings and beautiful stone fireplace. Sit by the fire in the morning and sip your coffee or sit on the deck and watch the deer and wild turkey.
Walk to your own private dock which awaits you on Lake Glenville, pontoon boat rental is also within walking distance.
This fabulous log home is perfect for a romantic getaway for two or a family reunion. Its peacefulness, thus the name Heaven's Gate, also lends itself well for a church retreat.
Every bedroom has a beautiful view of the lake and its own bathroom. The master suite with jacuzzi tub, has its own deck with a swing for two. Bring your sweater, it is cool even in the summer at nearly 4000 ft. elevation. The AVERAGE low temperature in July is 59 degrees. It is not uncommon to light a fire in the morning just to take the chill off. This log home does not need air conditioning as the cool nights keep the home cool during the day. Ceiling fans are in every room just in case there is an unusually warm day.
There are two bedrooms upstairs both with two queen beds. The master suite downstairs has a king bed. The finished basement has the game room, a king bed and the bunk room has two sets of bunk beds.
Just a short drive to Cashiers, Highlands, Cherokee and Franklin, this area of Western North Carolina offers activities for all ages from golfing to whitewater rafting.

Words truly cannot express how incredible this property and home is. 10/10 stay for our family during Thanksgiving week. Absolutely breathtaking views with complete privacy. I highly recommended this amazing home to anyone looking stay in North Carolina. Memories for a lifetime.

6 / 10Average·Sep 2022
Plenty of beds, lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and nice greenspace with distant view of the lake and mountains. The lake is quite far away and not a walk. We saw no instructions on how to find the “private dock” so accessing the lake from the property was not really possible. The downstairs with the queen bed and 4 bunks was very musty smelling and we were never able to air it out. The small kitchen was well stocked with well-used equipment but the cabinets were a hodge podge of stuff and terrible messy. Some of the knife handles from the drawer were not clean. It is a functional property but not worth the price. Everything was a bit outdated and well worn.
