About this cabin rental
Perched high in the mountains, this spacious, A-frame cabin offers stunning panoramic views, absolute privacy, and total comfort with a wrap-around deck, hot tub, fire pit, and on-site access to hiking trails and a waterfall. The interior features an open floor plan, internet, a dedicated workstation in the two-queen loft, and a primary suite with a king bed. Conveniently located 15 minutes from downtown Bryson City, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and the Nantahala River, this property requires a high-clearance vehicle due to steep gravel roads and a creek crossing—making it the ultimate high-elevation retreat for honeymoons or weekend getaways.

It is a treck to get to, but worth the view and quiet.
6 / 10Average·Dec 2025
The cabin was beautiful the only thing was it was too small for 3 teenagers plus us. They did have some dishwasher tablets but again with a family of 5, the 2 were just not enough to last the full trip. As well as the hot water it didn't last .it also would've been nice to have more than just 2 trash bags. It was a very nice cabin just not the best for a family of 5.The beds were very comfortable.
