About this property

Summer is full of Hiking, white water rafting! Close to Nantahala Wedding Venue!

Our cabin is a 2/2 with plenty of room and offers a beautiful stream running behind it. There is a hot tub on the upper deck with the stream down below and a lower deck for listening to the stream or picnics. The cabin was recently updated with new living room furniture and new kitchen appliances. The cabin is very secluded in the Nanatahala Forest with the Bartram Trail for hiking within 5 minutes walking distance. The Trail will take you to a breathtaking gorge and the Nanatahala Dam. Nanatahala Lake is 10 minutes by car from our cabin where you can rent rafts or there is a boat ramp available not far to put your own boat in. This is the Cabin for you, I promise that you won't want to leave!
Area Description:
Fishing is very good for trout,sun fish and bass on the lake or in the nearby rivers which run in the surrounding area.
The Nanatahala River is great for white water rafting which is available down the mountain about twenty minutes east.
Cherokee which is 45 minutes away has a Casino and Museums and an outdoor theater. To the east is Murphy which is about 40 minutes away which also has a casino and is a cute town for shopping. Andrews is the closest town down the mountain for groceries and has a couple great restaurants as well.

The location is fantastic, even though there are some houses around, it feels secluded and is a great getaway. The hot tub is so comfortable and we enjoyed being able to have a relaxing soak at night. Being able to just sit on the porch in the rocking chairs and relax while drinking coffee was wonderful too.The surroundings are beautiful with the Nantahala river nearby and the little stream that runs beside the house.My wife, me, and our dogs all enjoyed relaxing the stay at Cabin Fever!

Amazing cabin in the woods

The cabin was VERY well equipped, clean, and so comfortable! We stayed there for a short weekend and are already planning to come back next year. We will be renting this cabin again, but for a week next time. The owners were so helpful with recommendations and advice. Everything was easy to use. Kitchen was fully stocked. Plenty of towels, sheets, comfy blankets… the porch and deck were so comfortable and relaxing. The hot tub was great. The exit instructions were super easy and clear to follow. Checking in was too. We had a total blast! I highly recommend this cabin!

Great place

The cabin is remote, private, and very comfortable. The frigid temperature outside didn't affect how cozy we were inside, beside the fire. This was our second visit to this location in the dead of winter. It is a wonderful place to retreat.

Great Get-away

The location was perfect for us. It was so relaxing to sit on the deck and listen to the stream beside the cabin. Because of the location, it felt like we were in a tree-house. The cabin was beautiful, comfortable and very well maintained. We were close to the lake and the views around the lake were gorgeous. We will definitely book this cabin again. Thank you for sharing this home with us.
