Great Smoky Mountain Creekside Cabin

Escape to this cozy, creekside cabin and leave your worries behind on your relaxing getaway. Enjoy your coffee while listening to the sweet sounds the rushing waters of the creek from the sprawling front porch. Nestled in the Upper Cartoogechaye River valley, this peaceful log cabin feels secluded, but is only a short ride to town to pick up supplies. Spend your days being lazy by the creek or explore the Nantahala National Forest only a few miles down the road.

The main level offers master style bedroom with a luxurious King size bed and full bathroom en suite with tub shower combo. The second bedroom is as cozy as the master with a comfy Queen bed and a full bathroom right outside it's door. Accessible by ladder, is the cozy loft with 2 single beds.
Open the door, breath the mountain air and listen to the sounds of the creek through the screen door. A fully stocked kitchen affords you all the luxuries of home or step outside and fire up the Weber charcoal grill. A remote start gas fire place will keep you warm on those cool mountain evenings. There is also an outdoor fire pit to enjoy roasting marshmallows and great conversation. Creekside Cabin offers 55 inch HD TV and wifi for those looking to stay connected.
Once you arrive at this charming cabin in the woods you will never want to leave!

We provide linens, dish soap, detergent, and toilet paper. You will need to bring your own charcoal and firewood for the outdoor fire pits.

All renters of Creekside Cabin will agree to release the property and it's owners form any and all liability associated with any personal loss or injury occurring at or near the above property. Cell phone service is spotty but there is a land line and wifi for outside communications.

One of the best experiences we’ve ever had. The cabin is very family friendly and well equipped with all you will need AND MORE. We hope to rent again in the future for more family stays. The location tucked away in the trees with the best creek ever was 10/10! The WiFi and TV aren’t the best but it’s great for unplugging and have downloaded things on the iPad for the kiddos! Only about 11ish minutes from the store. My little one is 2.5 and it was perfection for her. She loved every bit of the cabin!

Absolutely Fantastic
I brought my mom here for her 87th birthday. We loved everything about the cabin. The location is beautiful, peaceful and secluded. The cabin is wonderfully appointed, clean and comfortable. The back porch and rockers were our favorite spot along with sitting by the creek. We didn’t use the fire pit but it’s a beautifully done area. The landscaping, both natural and planted are gorgeous. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back!

Perfect getaway
We were blown away by this place and can't wait to get back! The cabin was perfect. You can hear the creek from the porch. Small enough to be cozy but large enough to have some space. The beds were extremely comfortable. The weather was cold! 20 degrees one morning - but we were toasty with the fire. Property and creek were beautiful - it was a little cold to maximize the outdoor space, but we did have a small fire one night and it was lovely. I would highly recommend this place for a family of four. The loft space has two extra beds but was a bit hard to access on the ladder. We can't wait to get back and will be booking another stay - for longer next time! We did not want to leave.

Perfect Mountain Escape!
Beautiful property! The house is very comfortable, with a lovely gas fireplace and a nice kitchen. The deck is perfect for relaxing! The creek is beautiful, and kept my kids entertained. There are plenty of great hikes within a reasonable distance. My kids were documenting salamanders and found numerous specimens at the creek and on hikes. My husband sent pictures to his co-workers and had several ask for booking information they were so impressed! I would recommend this stay without reservation. (Note: cell service is non-existent until you get closer to town and internet is spotty so be prepared to have people call you on the house phone or bring a long distance calling card)

Felt property could have been cleaner. Coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator needed to be cleaned and kitchen in general. Forthrightness of no cell signal, slow Wi-Fi, and access to property should be addressed. Bedding should be updated. Sereneness of brook a nice touch.

We greatly enjoyed our time at this cabin. Everything on the listing was accurate. Extremally private location, as it shares a road with only one other cabin. The creek frontage offers a great place for families to spend hours enjoying the outdoors.

Comfortable Beds and an amazing Creekside view.....
This cabin is sooo relaxing. The creek and and cabin just take you away to an amazing mountain oasis. If you are wanting to get away from it all and unplug...this is the place for you. Completely off the grid and extremely amazing. The internet is EXTREMELY weak and practically no cell service. Which was fine with me but my Hubby and daughter were extremely disappointed. But sometimes, a family needs that to reconnect. Thanks to Hannah for allowing us to enjoy this piece of mountain paradise.

Magical
This place was absolutely amazing. It was very peaceful and secluded. Every morning when we got up we had coffee on the back porch and just listened to the creek and nature. The cabin its self was perfect, you really only need to leave to get groceries. Having the creek right outside your doorstep was awesome. Myself and my kids explored every bit of the creek. Our hosts were amazing as well, they answered any questions we had very quickly and nicely. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would love to go back in the future! Thank you Hannah and Lance for opening your home so others can enjoy what a beautiful and peaceful place you have!!
