The Junction-backwoods tiny home on brook trout stream with mountain ridge view
About this cabin rental
Situated in Cheoah, this charming cabin for $85 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Are the backwoods calling? Travel a half hour from town to an uneven gravel/dirt road to get up close and personal with nature. The cabin overlooks two wild brook trout creeks converging to one, plus a mountain ridge view! Let this forest hideaway bring tranquility or adventure for a couple's overnight or longer. We want our guests to feel the spirit of the area and the simplicity of life so unplug, enjoy the view and melt the stress away. Be aware venomous snakes and wild animals are indigenous to our area. 2 miles from paved road, all vehicles need 5" clearance, 1.2 mile of uneven gravel/dirt and potholes. NOT suitable for motorcycles. No cell or WiFi. No charging EV batteries. Use ONLY our directions! Logging days of the past used the creeks to harvest timber. The boulder creek offers lots of white noise with small waterfalls that can be seen and heard throughout. Bring your pole as it's home to wild brook trout or hatchery supported downstream. Country décor shows logging history in this well-equipped 400 sq ft cabin. Relax on the deck or take a nap in the covered porch. Walk your own private trail that leads to the creek-side deck. The Nantahala National Forest is our backyard and playground. Bring your outdoor gear for adventure right outside your door. Come "tame the dragon", ride the "Cherohala Skyway" or "hug" a tree at Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest. It has everything you need for a solo traveler or a couple. Spend a few nights or an extended stay. We hope to hear from ya!

My wife and I had the misfortune of having to cancel our Honeymoon due to a knee injury. Upon looking, she found this treasure and we jumped on the opportunity to spend the time together. When we entered the cabin, there was a welcome sign and in the living room.....a small Christmas tree and hearts for both occasions. Not only that, there was a big brownie and a present on the kitchen table! Absolutely everything was perfect....from the cabin itself to the river flowing below us. It was great to be able to "unplug" and just be together. Oh, being able to leave our mark on the porch was a blast :) Thank you so much!

Once you arrive at the cabin/tiny house it is adorable and very tranquil and has all of your basic needs. I suggest you arrive at the cabin during daylight hours. We made the mistake of arriving at nightfall and it made locating it tricky. I am more of a going places and doing things kind of person so that required a lot of driving as the little town of Robbinsville has nothing to offer. However, you can get to Bryson and Cherokee in a little over an hour or so. If you really want to just relax and disconnect from the world, this is your place.

What a quaint surprise, tucked away in the serene hollow of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mtns. The creek was perfect and the cabin was everything we needed and wished for! We did a lot of our cooking and the kitchen is efficient. No cell signal and no WiFi took some getting used to, lol, but was exactly what we needed to recharge. We walked the Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest Trail and must say, it’s amazing!!! Allow yourself a couple of hours to really take it all in.

This is the perfect place to disconnect from the daily grind and reconnect with your spouse. We so enjoyed the fact that nature surrounded us and reminded us we where all that was needed. The cabin is beautiful and stocked with all the essentials, just bring your groceries and get ready to unwind. We walked the creek, drove the mountains and even played board games, most of all we held hands, talked and enjoyed our time together. Perfect is what it seems to be.

The property was just as advertised - clean, up-to-date, comfortable, and scenic. The furnishings inside the house were incredible, and the porch was beautiful. We spent the majority of our time sitting on the porch watching and listening to the river. Alice was a wonderful host, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Junction!

My adult son & I sought a place “away from the everyday hustle & bustle”, the tranquility of a remote location in a beautiful natural setting. The Junction fit what we sought PERFECTLY! We stayed a full week, drove into town only once, ~midweek, for additional groceries. Each day we hiked & explored the area near the cabin, fished in the steam, & caught Brook & Rainbow trout up & down stream from the cabin. It was like a camping trip to a remote wilderness area, but with all the comforts of home in a perfect cabin. Alice & Doug have done an outstanding job of researching the local history & very tastefully & appropriately decorated the cabin, confirmed by the posted pictures.They also provide everything one could possibly need/want in the cabin, both for comfort & necessity. After a day of hiking/fishing we would sit on the covered or open part of the deck looking down on the beautiful clear, flowing water of a mountain stream… or looking out & up at a colorful mountain ridge, both the sights & sounds were incredibly relaxing & spirit renewing. The natural beauty surrounding the cabin is outstanding! I could write/say much more, all positive, about the Junction & hosts, Alice & Doug… but will end this review by simply saying… I can’t wait to find an opportunity to return to THE JUNCTION!

First of all, this spot was perfect. From the small details like fishing poles and bait to the comfort of falling asleep to the sound of the creek behind the house. It was extremely relaxing. Plenty of rocks to be found for the avid rockhounds out there, which my wife is one of them. The cabin was absolutely great in every way, super clean and provided everything we needed and nothing we didnt. Funny enough, we were starving when we made it in and initially joked how food wasnt provided, only to discover two muffins awaiting our arrival; an ironic blessing. As for the title, I am glad I brought a truck. The directions getting there were easy enough to follow, even in the dead of night. But you are definitely "off grid'ish" way back in the woods on what seems like a perfect 4 wheeling trail. How they got a Miata back there is a mystery I have yet to solve. I would definitely recommend vehicles larger than a car - truck, suv, van... something of that variety, if you value your vehicle. If you end up on street racer paradise road, God be with you. It's awesome! But not so much in a truck. All in all, it was a great trip and will definitely be back, and will stay at this property again.
Kudos to the home owners! They have provided an amazing location to get away from the daily grind.

This cabin was neat and tidy! I expected to see bugs since we were in the middle of the woods but I never saw any inside the cabin! Sitting on the porch and listening to the creek was very relaxing. The owners were great in communicating directions and instructions to us and always available to answer our questions. I would highly recommend this cabin for a quiet retreat and any other properties that these owners own!

This property was nothing short of amazing. Exactly as described, it was incredibly peaceful and the perfect way to spend our 18th anniversary. We absolutely loved our short stay here and can’t wait to come back and spend more time when we can stay longer. Alice was the perfect host and was very responsive. Even left us homemade muffins in the kitchen, which were delicious.

It was very enjoyable and location very beautiful and roads were abit rough but that was our fault as we took the back road. Really loved the feel of the cabin, very cozy.

We have stayed at a number of VRBO rentals, none more relaxing than The Junction. From the remoteness of the location to the coziness and cleanliness of the tiny cabin, it was perfect for our needs. And the fly fishing was note worthy, both for the beauty of the creek(s) and for the results. If you enjoy somewhat arduous wading, you can find it in Squally, especially well above the cabin.
We look forward to a return visit.
Thanks again to Alice and Doug for the experience and for their hospitality!

What a great, cozy house way off the beaten path! The home and porch are perfect spots to take in the beauty of the area. The hosts are great and quick to communicate. Being "unplugged" and surrounded by nature, my hubby and I enjoyed the much needed relaxation and naps! We can't wait to come back and spend more time at the cabin and the surrounding area. Love this place!

This unique and beautiful property did not disappoint. The sound of the beautiful creek is so soothing. The cozy porch was so inviting and comfortable. We ate our breakfast and dinner outside by candlelight. They’ve thought of everything you could need in the well appointed kitchen. We roasted hotdogs on the nice outdoor fire pit. Watched movies and enjoyed so much this much needed getaway. Excellent precise directions were great. We will definitely be planning a return visit !!!

Husband and I had a WONDERFUL stay. Wish we could have stayed longer. The Junction is a very nice clean home. If you want to stay somewhere quiet and peaceful then The Junction is the place for you and Mrs. Alice is a very sweet lady, and full of a LOT of info of the area. We loved it so much we’re already planing to go back soon.
Thank you Mrs. Alice

LOVED this cabin! My goal was to "unplug" from the outside world and get away by myself for a couple days. Got exactly that. :) Beautiful area and the cabin itself is perfect for this type of getaway. Also really enjoyed getting to chat with the owners upon check-in; they seem like great people! Definitely would love to stay again in the future.

This was off the beaten path and surrounded by nature. We really enjoyed our time here. The host are amazing and are very, very thoughtful! It really was one of the best rental experiences we have had. The location is away from town and I would recommend it for anyone looking for true rest and relaxation.

This place is a little slice of heaven on earth. Alice is the most wonderful host and her written directions to the cabin is perfect. She thought of every detail. We got there after dark and the house was lit up with a small Christmas tree and just enough lighting that it reminded me of Thomas Kincaid art. My BF and I had the most wonderful relaxing time. I can’t wait to go back!

Alice and Doug your little cabin is just perfect! Clean and stocked with everything we could have possibly needed for a warm and relaxing stay. I could sit on that porch forever with that amazing view of the junction and that waterfall on the path down to the creek it is absolutely gorgeous 😍The kids did not want to leave either they loved fishing from the lower deck and hanging out and playing games in the loft. Thank-you for being such thoughtful hosts and friendly neighbors. We look forward to sharing this place with all our friends and family when they visit us on west buffalo. See you all in the spring!

The perfect getaway! This was an amazing place to get away from the business of life. The streams and mountains were breathtaking. The owners were fabulous and very accommodating. We will be returning as soon as possible!

I was really looking for a place that was off the beaten path, in nature, without distractions. This place had exactly that! Small and cozy with all the essentials. Very clean, very beautiful, I only wish I had had more time there. I could have spend an entire day in the creek looking for minerals and rocks. No internet or cell service, but don’t worry, the office was on Comedy Central. Review from two 39 year olds.
Host is attentive and responsive. Thanks for the great stay. Highly recommend

When we read the reviews for this cabin we had very high expectations. Well the reality blew us away. This cabin was exactly what my wife and I needed for our 20th anniversary. From the stunning views to the cabin itself everything was perfect. Alice did a great job communicating the directions to the cabin and making sure that we had EVERYTHING we needed for our 4 days here. From the kitchen, to the grill, the bedroom, and bathroom - Alice has thought of everything including DVD's of several movies filmed locally for us to watch. You will not be able to imagine how peaceful and beautiful this place truly is until you visit.
Alice also left us a nice gift for our 20th anniversary which was a great surprise and goes to show how much time and effort they out into making this place perfect.

What a privilege to stay here for our 6th Anniversary. We could only get away from our 3 little kiddos for a night but we would’ve stayed for a week if we could! The peaceful bubbling of the creek set the perfect backdrop for my wife and I to unwind and remember the the years since gone by and look forward to the future. We enjoyed our tea, our meals and our wine out on the deck and cozied up inside when the evening got a little chilly. It was perfect having the windows open at night with some extra blankets so we could hear the creek all night long. It takes a while to get back to the Junction but the winding roads were beautiful as they took us along a creek for miles. We appreciated our hosts Doug and Alice and all of they helps through well spelled out instructions and communication along the way. Thank you!!
