Incredible View, Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Grill & Foosball | Mountain Gem by AvantStay
Your mountain escape begins at this Waynesville cabin, nestled in the Cataloochee Hills 35 miles from Asheville. Mountain Gem is a two-story log home with cathedral ceilings and windows, a loft, a hot tub, and incredible views.
Step onto the wrap-around deck, with a 20-mile Smoky Mountain vista. Fire up the charcoal grill for barbecues, or gather around the fire pit for a marshmallow roast. A hot tub invites you to soak away your worries while gazing at the stars.
Indoors, the open-concept great room offers a warm and inviting space, and the fully equipped kitchen invites you to prepare meals for your group. In the loft, foosball tournaments await.
