Country Escape Cabin in Smokies-Dog Friendly/Including Pool Table

GORGEOUS LOG HOME ON FOUR VERY PRIVATE ACRES with a real stone wood burning fireplace, pool table, foosball table, and two living spaces! Escape from it all with NO neighbors right next to you to interrupt your vacation! Best value, most privacy, and easiest access in the area! Only cabin in the area with a pool table and four bedrooms. Please note that we only rent our cabin with access to all three floors, including the first floor with the pool table, foosball, and large extra living space.

Great for couples wanting a romantic and fun break, a getaway with friends, and also for families wanting quality time together.

Two primary bedrooms, both with luxury king beds, one en suite, and one with a deep tub and slate tile surround in the nearby bathroom.

Two living spaces with beautiful leather couches.

Wonderful views of the Smoky Mountains and the Appalachian Trail right from our wrap around decks!

Great for friends and families with the games and videos in the game closet, a smart tv in the primary bedroom, and close proximity to gem mining and train rides.

Enjoy a romantic drink on the deck or grill out on our gas grill as the sun sets over the mountains.

Hike in the nearby trails, some leading you towards beautiful waterfalls!

Very easy access in a two wheel drive vehicle from Bryson City Road (28N).
Halfway between Bryson City and Franklin with easy access to both!

Enjoy the Little Tennessee River right at the entrance to our area for fishing and tubing in the summer. River is clear again and did not flood in our area.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Worobel

Host profile image
We love the gorgeous mountain views and the escape from the heat and our hectic lifestyles. We enjoy going to the cabin to relax or to have fun with friends and family. Our kids love the gem mining, tubing, train rides, and whitewater rafting.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location because we kept coming to this area and fell in love with the natural setting, the ease of access to our property, and the proximity to lots of fun places in Western North Carolina. We also love to relax and watch the beautiful sunsets and the wildlife go by as we sit on the deck overlooking the mountains and our 4 acre property.

What makes this property unique

We have four bedrooms with lots of space for you and your family and friends to relax. We have a fully stocked kitchen with a gas grill and outside picnic table. We also have two wrap around decks, one with gates at the end to help contain pets when they want to enjoy the beautiful North Carolina weather. We have a pool table, corn hole board, ring toss, dvds, games, and many books for you to enjoy during your stay.
