"Watia Creekside" Luxury/Hot Tub/2 FP's-Lake/Wi-Fi
A Unique and Rare find. "Watia Creekside" Retreat will exceed all of your expectations, and is sure to spoil you for all others.
When only the Finest Accommodations will do, - Watia Creekside Retreat is the place for you... to rejuvenate after a day Exploring the endless attractions this area has to offer! Let the Soothing Sounds of the Creek surround You as you Enjoy a soak in the Sparkling Hot Tub. (Offering easily accessible access roads, 4 WD is not necessary).
Tranquility, Serenity, and Quietude... All words to describe the calmness you experience while standing on the deck listening to the sounds of the Creek below or relaxing in the outdoor living area. The outdoor Fireplace provides a gentle warmth as you relax, wrapped in one of our Plush Bathrobes, after a relaxing soak in the hot tub.
If you prefer a wood burning fire, the Rock Fire Pit is along side the Creek, and the wood rack is stocked.
Inside the Cabin you will find the Designer Stainless and Granite "Chef's Kitchen" is well stocked with everything you need to prepare your meals.
The living room offers flat screen Smart T.V., a second Stone fireplace, and Leather seating. There are 2 extremely luxurious and comfortable bedrooms on the main floor prepared with the finest of linens and bedding. Designer appointments can be found throughout the home...
Upstairs, the loft was designed for entertaining with a Foosball table, second Flat Screen Smart TV, 3rd full bathroom, and a Desk/Home Office. Additionally, there are (2) very high end twin size rollaway beds that will be made available for groups with 5 or 6 Guests. (If you have stayed at Watia Creekside in the past and used the sofa bed, you will be pleased with how much more comfortable the rollaway beds are).
To keep in touch with your Friends and Family, Complimentary WiFi is provided, and we are excited to announce that the upgraded WiFi service is unlimited use and is the best service this area offers!
You have Private access to Fontana Lake front, just a few short minutes away.
Here you will enjoy the swim platform, 9 boat slips, and great fishing so bring your pole. Fontana Lake is home to every freshwater species of fish (including Waleye).
This Exclusive Location offers a Private back road that leads to the Nantahala Outdoor Center (N.O.C.). Along this road you will encounter over 7 miles of Biking Trails, and hiking trails are abundant. There is Beauty to behold no matter the season
As a Guest at Watia Creekside, the Amenities at the NOC are yours to enjoy (Both Public and Private). This includes: Whitewater Rafting, Kayaking, Horseback Riding, Fly Fishing (lessons, poles, and bait available), Tennis Courts, Bike Rentals, Miles of Mountain Biking trails (Gate Code to access the "Flintridge" Mountain Biking Trails is provided), Rope Course, Zip Lines, Outfitter Store, 3 Restaurants (from casual outdoor Riverfront to Fine Dining), Live Entertainment (seasonal), and even a "Tree Top Playground" for the lil ones.
There truly is something for everyone at this outdoor mecca!
The Tsali Recreation Center is just 10 minutes up the road, so bring the mountain bikes.
Bryson City for shopping, dining, and the Scenic Train Depot is minutes away.... Cherokee, Harrah's Casino, and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park is just 20 - 30 minutes away. Close enough to be very convenient, far enough away to feel completely Private. Watia Creekside is Perfectly located between Bryson City and the Nantahala Outdoor Center
... Also available is our Shopping service. If you would like to arrive at the Cabin with your Groceries already stocked, ask for details, we will have everything waiting for you upon your arrival.
... If you would like to enjoy a Spa Massage Service at the Cabin, it is a good idea to book in advance to assure availability. Your Professional Massage Therapist will come to you, so when you are done, they quietly disappear and leave you to relax!
... If your vacation dates are during 'Season' or Holidays and you plan to rent a pontoon or fishing boat, it may be a good idea to reserve in advance. Lake Fontana is primarily National Forest, Smoky Mountains, and Federally owned, so the Lake is never 'Busy', but the few available rental boats do get booked up.
