Lake Hiwassee – A Hidden Gem
Nestled in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, Lake Hiwassee is 93% U.S. Forest Service land, making it one of the region's most private and pristine lakes. Known for record-breaking fishing (a state-record 66-pound striped bass was caught here!), this lake is perfect for:
✔ Boating, skiing & wakeboarding
✔ Fishing & canoeing
✔ Kayaking, paddleboarding & rafting
The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) controls the lake levels—it’s full in summer and lower in fall, winter, and early spring. No worries! Our dock floats year-round on deep water frontage—it’s just a longer walk when the water is lower.
Your Private Mountain & Lake Getaway
Located in a remote, peaceful setting, yet just 45 minutes from Murphy, NC, this home provides the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience.
