Sunset View over the Mountains! Rustic Cabin w/ Hot Tub

When we say this home has a little bit of everything, we mean it! This beautiful 3 bed, 1 bath cottage is perfectly nestled in the woods with direct access to the main road, in between Bryson City, Robbinsville, and the Nantahala Gorge. This rustic cabin has been restored and repurposed from a family home to a luxury vacation rental with the most beautiful sunset anywhere in the region.

If you're one to enjoy the outdoors, you are in luck. Less than a half-mile from the Tsali bike trail system, only five miles away from the Nantahala Outdoor Center, and one mile away from the boat ramps accessing Fontana Lake! Close to the Tail of the Dragon, you will be near one of the most sought-after motorcycle destinations in the nation. This property borders the National Forest Service, with signs posted all around. If you enjoy more of the scenery, you're also in luck - enjoy the breathtaking views from all around this house, whether it's on the ride in or just sitting in the spacious hot tub.

This home is boat-friendly, motorcycle friendly, and HANDICAPPED-friendly! Easy driveway access is directly accessible from the four-lane highway, yet this home is still secluded from the rest of the world. Take a moment and relax from the stress of life on the covered back porch, with a view all the way to Cade's Cove, TN.

Amazing views! The place was beautiful, very clean, and had everything we needed. The hummingbirds were awesome to watch. We had a little trouble finding it but Pat was really nice and very helpful. We had a great time and can’t wait to go back!

Rain, Rafting and good times

This was the end of our family vacation. We stayed for two days. And in between rain storms. We explored the Dragon, hiked deep creek falls, White water rafted at NOC. All the while taking in the lush green from the rain, and woodsy scents. Great stay! Thank you for having us!

What a great cabin - when it says rustic, it means it. The doors are different color paints all peeled off, but beautifully stained and sanded down. This optimizes a wooden cabin feel - the chairs, the beds, the tables, even the lamps were made from wood!! So pretty! The kitchen has everything you will need to make dinner for your family. The beds are large and comfortable, plenty of towels. We left shampoo, conditioner, and detergent for the next lucky visitors. We did not use the hot tub because my children were scared of the hornets that were around it, but this is the wild lol. The sunset was amazing, we roasted marshmallows in the fire pit. Lots of fun things to do next to the cabin, really had a great time with my family.

Absolutely Charming

We were here for the 4th of July and found the cabin to be absolutely charming! We watched the sunset in a very clean hot tub while the fireflies blinked around us. The kids were so enchanted. We found the cabin to be very clean as well and our host were beyond welcoming and gracious. They even sent us a Spotify Playlist for the ride up the mountains. One of my other favorite features was the shower. The shower head was so much better than what you typically find in a cabin. There is also a boat ramp 5 minutes away for those that are visiting the lake. The store by the house was closed while we were there but they did still offer ice and firewood. Everything during our stay was perfect and we will be sure to visit this property again.

Beautiful property!

This was the perfect getaway for our family vacation to GSMNP. The kitchen was well stocked with all the tools necessary to cook. The beds were comfortable providing a good nights sleep after a long day of adventuring. The property was well maintained and the view off the back deck was spectacular. We would absolutely stay here again!

Loved our stay!

The cabin was very comfortable, and communication with the owners was quick and easy. So much natural beauty, outdoor exploration, and mountain river fishing in the area. We used the hot tub and fire pit every evening. We would definitely recommend this location!

Beautiful mountain oasis!

Super impressed by this cabin! The pictures on the putside dont do it justice for what you get on the inside! Beautiful views, very large hottub and easy to access from the main roads. ( no steep mountain driving) We stayed for the weekend with our family of 6 at The Smokey Mountain Railroad which was about 17min away! Highly recommend! to enjoy a ride at Polar Express at the Thtain

Just a short vacation for two. The views were amazing but still had easy access to the highway. We didn’t use the kitchen but seemed to have everything you would need. We would definitely stay again!
