About this property

Come, enjoy total privacy, including no contact self check-in, at this immaculate cabin in the Nantahala National Forest!

***If your group needs additional accommodations please view our other vacation rental just 3 doors down at VRBO # 7935707***

Don't miss out on this dream of a vacation cabin!! Enjoy the seclusion of a creekside mountain retreat in this 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin with private hot tub.
The property borders the beautiful Nantahala National Forest of the Great Smoky Mountains and offers an abundance of exploration. Let the sounds of the rushing waters soothe your soul day and night. Walk across our bridge to enjoy bonfires or even pitch a tent for the night on our property across the river which is lit by festive cafe lights strung around the campfire. Hike through the Nantahala National Forest right out the backdoor. Or if you prefer the creature comforts, enjoy the fully equipped kitchen, comfortable new beds (King and Queen), new gas logs in our stone fireplace, Wi-Fi, large flat screen TV in the den and another in the King Bedroom with Dish Programming. Read a book or just gaze at the river from the sunroom/sleep porch with its comfortable oversized chairs and sofa which opens into a queen sleeper sofa. Enjoy family dining at the large dining table beautifully made of reclaimed barnwood.

Conveniently located on the Wayah Road section of Mountain Waters Scenic Byway, a paved road, the home is easily accessible even during inclement weather. We're just far enough out of downtown Franklin (8 miles) to be secluded yet we're directly on the way to Wayah Bald, Nantahala Outdoor Center, Lake Nantahala and The Appalachian Trail. Franklin/Macon County has 16 local water falls, world renown gem mining, and numerous biking and hiking trails including the Appalachian Trail and Bartram Trail. Grocery shopping and restaurants are less than 10 minutes away. A quick 15 minutes to downtown Franklin you'll find antique shops, local crafts, restaurants, entertainment and two locally owned Micro Brewery Pubs. Adventures are abundant in every direction - or you may choose to never leave once you've arrived!

Cozy Creekside Cabin

The backyard was absolutely amazing, perfect in every way!! We loved playing in the creek and sitting by the fire. Drinking my coffee on the deck, listening to the creek was perfect!! The cabin was super cozy and the beds were so comfortable.

Relaxing getaway

Bearly there was a perfect place for us to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. It was close enough to town that we weren't stuck in a car all day, yet far enough out there to feel a sense of peace. The house was perfect for us. I suggest bringing a large sheet or blanket to throw out in the yard to just lay on and take a nap next to the stream. It was so relaxing it felt almost illegal. One thing I would note is that even though the road is not super busy, it was a bit tough to pull out of, you cant see cars coming from either direction, I did see a mirror on the trees across the way that helped a bit, but seemed to be for the opposite direction. We backed into the driveway and it was awful, but still a bit scary. All in all, an amazing property hosted by great people. We will be back and noted Kathy's other properties which we will also likely check out.

LOVED that it was right on the creek as advertised!!!!! Easy drive up - we backed in to park as trying to back out onto the paved road was nerve racking ( for me , not for my husband ;) ) will stay again!!!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Reynolds

Hello, thanks for viewing our property! We bought this home in 2016 because we loved the location on the stream and the fact it is always 10 degrees cooler here than in downtown Franklin! We live a large part of the time in Georgia where summertime heat is inescapable and the Fall leaves are never quite as spectacular. We decided in June of 2017 to share what we think is a wonderful mountain retreat with others. We hope you love it as much as we do! We have another home 3 doors down if you need more space, VRBO #7935707 as well as another 11 miles away on Lake Nantahala, VRBO # 9453752. Additionally we have 2 vacation homes in the Florida Keys (VRBO #1027392 and VRBO # 2413494) and another on a beautiful lake in Central Florida, VRBO #1090075.
We take pride in offering guests immaculate surroundings with tasteful decor and all the creature comforts of home. Your comments and suggestions are welcome as we strive to provide a seamless vacation for our guests! We will be easily accessible via telephone, text, and e-mail before and during your stay. Thank you for considering booking with us.....I hope you'll become a repeat visitor!
