Wildside Retreat | Lake James | Pool & Zugang zur Resort-Gemeinschaft | 3 Schlafzimmer | Haustierfreundlich

Wildside Retreat puts you inside Camp Lake James—one of Western North Carolina's most coveted private lake communities—with full guest access to the resort-style amenities that make it special: a community pool, the Canteen café, a covered pavilion, and lakeside gathering areas, all within a short walk of the front door.

The home itself is a three-bedroom, three-bath cabin with a sleek, modern interior that feels more like an upscale mountain lodge than a rustic retreat. Vaulted ceilings, a granite kitchen island with bar seating for four, a gas log fireplace, and a lower-level den with a game table give everyone room to settle in and spend quality time together. Outside, a screened porch with its own gas fireplace is perfect for morning coffee, while the fire pit in the backyard is where you'll spend evenings under the stars.

The layout: Three queen bedrooms spread across three levels (main, upper, and lower), plus an upper-level twin room, ideal for families. Three full bathrooms, in-unit laundry, and an EV/Tesla charger round things out.

Out the door: Fonta Flora's open-air brewery at Whippoorwill Farm is 1.5 miles away. Downtown Marion for craft beer and dining is under 20 minutes. Morganton is 30 minutes, Black Mountain is 45 minutes, and Asheville is about an hour. Pontoon rentals are available at Lake James Neighborhood Store (4.3 miles) and Noah's Landing (10.3 miles).

Note: Dogs are welcome (up to two, $100/dog non-refundable fee). The home has a Ring doorbell camera. The home is near the lake but is not lakefront and does not have a private dock. Community docks and the fitness center are private and off-limits to guests.
