The place was perfect for what we were looking for. We considered this a camping trip on the lake with easy lake access by boat, so it more than satisfied our needs.
Unfortunately, our boat was too large (28’ Sea Ray) to fit down Goose Creek channel, but the location was right next to Asheville Bay Marina, so we rented a slip there for the weekend. Andy at the marina was super helpful and made sure we had everything we needed every time out on the water and was always there when we returned to help us dock the boat. He went way beyond what was expected to accommodate us.
The cottage was homey and has all basic necessities for a weekend on the lake. It is on the small side but has everything 2 people would need. I highly recommend, if you’re looking for something affordable just off the lake that satisfies simple needs. If you’re looking for fancy, it’s not the place for you!
If we decide to return to Lake Chautauqua next year, we will be booking again!!
