About this cottage rental
Exceptionally crafted luxury Adirondack-style home overlooking Lake Santeelah and the Smokey Mountains, located in the sequestered western North Carolina community of Santeetlah Lakeside.
This community is surrounded by protected forest and pristine water. The marina is within walking distance, so take a boat ride and explore one of the most beautiful and tranquil lakes in America with over 90 percent conserved shoreline.
Spend your day boating, swimming or fly fishing, or maybe hiking in one of the national forests; drive the Cherohala Skyway or the Tail of the Dragon; visit Fontana Dam, the Oconoluftee Village and Cherokee Casino, or enjoy Southern Appalachian mountain culture at the Stecoah Valley Cultural Arts Center; take a train ride on the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad in Bryson City, then relax with an afternoon cocktail along the banks of the Cheoah River at Tapoco Lodge.

The view of the lake and beautiful mountains from Dragonfly Cottage was breathtaking. The house is exactly as described and was perfect for four couples to enjoy some downtime and a few adventures.

This was our second stay at the dragonfly Lodge. We were there exactly one year ago, riding all the country roads and looking at the beautiful mountains and leaves and the lake. We really enjoy staying at the dragonfly, it has all the things that we would be looking for and we felt at home. Carol and Alan did a great job with their house.
