Rushing Waters Cabin is an incredible 1200 square foot rustic cabin located just feet from a rushing, meandering creek. The creek borders the heavily-wooded 1-acre lot for 250 feet! Enjoy the views and sounds of the creek from the many decks, or the sleeping porch with its futon and gas fireplace, or from the comfort of the living room, with its huge stacked-stone, wood-burning fireplace. The creek is lit for evening enjoyment. There is also an outdoor firepit to enjoy a cozy fire off the deck and an outdoor dining area perched over the rushing creek and a hammock to hang out or nap by the creek. If you have ever stayed creekfront, especially loud, in-your-face creekfront, you know that no location compares or is more relaxing. If you haven’t stayed creekside, you HAVE TO experience it ... and this is as good as it gets!
The cabin is located amongst a forest of tall trees and is heavily shaded creekside. The creekside is usually cool, even on a hot day. It is very secluded most of the year.
The cabin itself is very rustic, with cedar tongue and groove throughout, giving it the cozy, mountain feel you want for your mountain vacation. A massive stone fireplace in the living room enhances the mountain cabin experience. It is decorated with style and comfort in mind (not plaid!). You will find a comfortable, fine leather sofa and club chair in the living room. We have an indoor dining table that seats 4 and outdoor dining seats 6. Cabin has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths and sleeps 4: the master bedroom has a king bed with a full bath; the second bedroom has a queen log bed. The adventurous can sleep on the futon on the sleeping porch, which locks with a latch. Additional guests permitted; let us know if you need an air-mattress. Nothing but the best for our guests. High-count linens, plush towels, washer/dryer provided; kitchen is fully-equipped. Central air and heat.
We have all the tech toys too offering you the best of both worlds! Satellite television is provided in the living room and each bedroom (you even have TIVO on the living room TV!). And who says you can’t mix work and play? As much as we love secluded mountain living, we know you need technology sometimes. DIAL UP INTERNET is available on your computer (bring your laptop). We also provide a printer and a fax so you can take care of business while you are enjoying your mountain getaway. And we have lots of books and magazines.

HOW TO GET HERE. Fly into Atlanta or Asheville and rent a car for a scenic 2 1/2-hour drive to the cabin. Hayesville also has a shuttle service that takes you to and from the Atlanta airport for about $75; this is really convenient if you have other guests coming in during your stay and don’t want to leave the comforts of the cabin to bring them in or get them home. |
