Located within the upscale Arbor subdivision of Lake James, Sunset Haven is a lake lover's dream! Outfitted with cozy yet modern furnishings, this home boasts a lower-level game room with a ping-pong table and game table, a fire pit overlooking the lake, and a private swimming platform with a ladder, boat slip, and sun deck with unbeatable views. When you're not relaxing or soaking up the sun while swimming and boating at your home away from home, spend your days exploring nearby hiking trails like the Holly Discovery Trail, Fonta Flora State Trail, or West Wimba Loop Bike Trail in Lake James State Park. For view chasers, this home is about an hour's drive from Linville Gorge Wilderness–aka the “Grand Canyon of the East,” which offers even more epic hikes.
Cool down after your hiking and biking adventures with a craft beer and a snack from Fonta Flora's open-air brewery at Whippoorwill Farm. For dinner, stop into J. Hartman's for fresh seafood and a cocktail or McDowell Local for a delicious burger paired with NC staple, Cheerwine. For some retail therapy, take a 30-minute drive east to Morganton or a 40-minute drive west to Black Mountain to browse the local shops for special keepsakes to remind you of your time in Western North Carolina!
