We had a wonderful time at the Mountain Rest Lake cabin! It has everything we needed in such a beautiful setting. It was peaceful & fun for my husband, daughter & I.

Relaxing fishing destination

This was a great trip (4 nights) for myself and 2 other college buds to who enjoy fishing, talking old times and relaxation. We fished the lake and the nearby river and had a good time. Looking forward to a return trip in the future. Owners were great communicators prior to our trip and after our checkin. Billy H
