Our extended family had a great week at Indian Lake Lodge! Loved the modern decor and open design, gorgeous lake/mountain views, and large private lot. It was really nice to have the pool table and downstairs TV/relaxing area for the teens, and the deck/fireplace just off the great room was a favorite spot for everyone. Nice picnic table/grill area too. If you've been to Nantahala before, you will appreciate that the driveway is easy to navigate (and definitely follow the check-in directions *to*the*letter* because the roads get really steep!). Good communication with owner. We got used to the walk to the dock, but it was a switch from previous houses that we've rented at Nantahala not to be able to pop quickly back and forth from the house to the dock/boat if you've forgotten something. If you've got really old or really young folks with you, or anyone with mobility issues, be aware that the walk is very steep, even taking the road. Also, in the category of "good to know," be aware, particularly if you have work obligations, that the wifi isn't reliable for streaming or up/downloading, and is spottier during peak times, and there is no cell signal at all (shout out to Andrews Public Library for providing a great spot for one of us that needed strong and reliable signal for a work call that couldn't be postponed until after vacation!). VRBO's bathroom descriptions are a little confusing (four bathrooms have a tub or shower icon in the Rooms and Beds section) -- but to be clear for those like us with a mish-mash of families together, it's three full baths (the K primary bedroom has a full bath, the 2 Q rooms upstairs share a jack-n-jill bath; and the bunk room and downstairs K room share a hall bath) plus a powder room on the main floor.
Very enjoyable week all around -- Nantahala is such a gem of a lake!
