Log cabin features fantastic views, with privacy on a serene mountain side. Be lulled to sleep by the cool wispy mountain breezes and the sounds of the river down below. On the covered back porch, relax in several log rockers and watch the clouds float by and the ever changing skyline of the Smokies. B-B-Q your catch of the day or your favorite meat on the grilll; or enjoy picnic on on the Amish picnic table on the back porch. Hikes up and down the mountain display laurel, wildflowers, blue & black berries private road. We regularly seen flocks of wild turkey, deer, rabbits & other wild life.
Plenty of comfy furniture to laze away a rainy day & listen for the dramatic raining sounds over the metal roof on the big rocking porch. Cozy up in front of the stone fireplace. 2-Satellite TVs with DVD. With new wifi, we haveunlimited data available. We are a pet friendly cabin. 2 pets included in pet fee; extra charge for 3 pets.
Just down the scenic 4 mile road past two amazing waterfalls (pictured below) is the launch site for rafting the Nantahala. Just 4 miles the other direction is the beautiful Nantahala Lake. Three rafting companies conveniently close to drive. NOC approximately 6 miles from river launch site. **Note, the steep inclines on our gravel, mountain road were just recently paved which should make our road passable by any 4-6 cylinder vehicle. (Please note: our town is Topton; Bryson City is about 35-40 minutes from us.)
We had a wonderful weekend visit at the cabin. The views and mountain air were so nice. The cabin is cute and quaint and comfortable. The drive up Wayah Rd is breathtaking of the river! So many waterfalls. We enjoyed fishing and river rafting and sight seeing while there. Be sure to bring what you need or grab on the way in a town since there are no gas stations or stores within 20-30 minutes.
Everything was very nice. The cabin is very comfortable and clean. The view is amazing. The mountains are beautiful. We were attending a wedding and did not have much time to take advantage of the beautiful location, hiking, waterfalls. The information about the WiFi code that was sent to me on VRBO was inaccurate, but the correct information was posted in the cabin. It was the perfect place to come back to after hectic wedding activities and then after a beautiful ceremony and reception.
Our trip was to remember my son whose ashes were scattered at the waterfall on Wayah Rd. The cabin was a perfect pick for us and was wonderful with stunning views from the back deck. We appreciate the opportunity to stay at this beautiful cabin and it will definitely be our choice to stay every year from now on. It is close to the waterfall and we could visit often during our stay.
The property was nice but the viewâŠ.literally a million dollar view! The road up to the cabin was a bit dicey and we were in a 4 wheel drive truck. Donât recommend driving up at night or in bad weather. Once you reached the cabin it was worth it! The cabin had what we needed for a comfortable stay. We chose this cabin for solitude & reflection and it was exactly perfect. I definitely recommend stopping at Ingles prior to going up to the cabin. The closest market is at least 20-30 mins away. There were MANY waterfalls and hiking trails close to the cabin, within 3-4 miles. There was also lots of rafting and trout fishing which is what the area is known for. All in all a lovely getaway. Thank you Judy!
The cabin was as described and had all we needed to cook dinner our first night there. I do wish we had realized that there are no towns close by and no stores. The deck outside was perfect to enjoy the mountain view and cool crisp air!
We were thrilled with our visit to this cabin! It was cozy with an awesome mountain decor. It was very well stocked and had a fabulous back deck/porch with a stunning view of the mountains. The weather was perfect and we ate out on the back porch and took our dog for lots of walks around the mountain. This is the perfect place to get away from it all and relax.
This property is up where you can see the valley and the mountains across from it. Itâs quiet with everything you need for a short, medium or long stay. We unplugged as well as watched the NFL season opener. Day trips nearby and further are spectacular.
Nearby you have Lake Nanthaha, Nanthahala River, Bryson City, hiking to observation towers, mountain biking and about 1:15 from Ocoee River. Beautiful country.
It was great. Driving into town was beautiful and the people were so nice.
Only one complaint was the lighting in the bathroom was lacking. They could use more.
The view was exceptional. Cabin was stocked with everything we needed. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and grilling out while looking at the beautiful mountains. Slept well in the king bed upstairs.
The view is spectacular. The cabin is clean and very cozy. There is plenty of hiking trails nearby. We enjoyed our stay very much, and spent a ton of time out on the porch enjoying the view. A qarning about the driveway up to the cabin: its steep and curvy. Highly recommend doing it in daylight the first time. We had our Camaro with us and it made the trip up the hill without any problem.
The cabin was very nice and well maintianed. The back porch view was truly amazing durning the fall colors. The road to the cabin is not motorcycle acessible unless using a small trailer to pull bikes up and down. Great location for the lake and a Wayah rd is a must to travel on and take time to enjoy. I would recommend and revisit this cabin. No cell phone service for us in the cabin (verizon).
The cabin is as beautiful as the pictures if not more. The kitchen was equipped with all the essentials that you need to cook.
One suggestion is to bring a few extra trash bags as the accumulation of trash can happen fast if you are cooking for a family and although there are trash sites on certain days, it was a bit of a challenge for us. But we made it work.
The other is, definitely want to arrive in daylight your first day. We didn't get there till 10pm and the road was a bit scary. However, after your first time you will be okay.
The host was very responsive and quickly.
We have stayed at this wonderful home for a month on three different occasions in the last three years. It is everything the write-up describes and much, much more. The view is the best one weâve ever had, and weâve been coming to the Nantahala Gorge area for at least 15 years. The house is comfortable and well stocked and there is a lovely one mile walk up and back down the mountain right out the door. I canât say enough about this place and itâs owner, who communicates quickly when needed!
The drive up the first time is a little scary (especially at night), but youâll get used to it. The place is cozy and clean. The back porch is the crĂšme de la crĂšme of this beautiful property. Every day the view was changed by the weather. Our cell phone didnât work, but the limited internet data gave us the ability to text. Itâs a getaway that truly helps you get away from all the ruckus of daily life. The river on Wayah road has numerous waterfalls, that rival most of the falls in the national park. You could spend your days photographing them, fly fishing, tubing, or rafting on the numerous rivers in the area. Donât forget to fire up the grill for some grilled fresh trout you catch from the river. Iâd rate this place a slice of Heaven above the clouds among a sea of green. Canât imagine what this place looks like in the Fall. Do some research before you come, because thereâs so much you can do. Or just hang out at the cabin and do nothing, sâmores around a campfire, games on the back porch. Either way, youâll have a magical time.
The view is spectacular, and it is so quiet. Only saw the neighbors once and that is while they drove by the cabin going to their place. I would place this in the top 6 of all the VRBO's I've stayed in.
We loved our stay at the cabin. Clean and had everything you would need for a nice comfortable stay. The view was amazing. We could hear the waterfalls and river from the back porch. So peaceful and relaxing. So glad we stayed there for our family summer vacation.
The property ideal for two although it can sleep 6. The indoor fireplace and thankfully firewood provided makes a very cozy cabin when the mountain rain weather hunkers in. Super benefit you can bring your animal babies. You must be country tough as in order to see this view youâve got to have the know how to manage the steep drive in and out. The owner is awesome to communicate with.
We had a great time at the cabin. The view and everything you see in the surrounding area are just breathtaking. Be careful if you drive in to the area from US 129, the Dragon Tail portion can be crazy on a nice sunny Saturday like we encountered. The cabin had everything we needed, even some cooking oil and spices, a crock pot, and even some cortisone cream in the bathroom for first aid. There was also plenty of firewood. We enjoyed our quiet and private week long getaway with our toddler and pug, and would love to return someday when the toddler is big enough to enjoy the river sports! Access to GSMNP was easy through Cherokee we got to know the roads very well in just a week. We recommend the hike to the fire tower on the Appalachian Trail (tellico gap if I remember correctly) not far from the cabin. Also Bryson City is easy to get to and a nice little town to explore while visiting the road to nowhere.
