About this property
Quiet Rustic Getaway
*4WD/AWD recommended* A beautiful mountain cabin in Whittier, North Carolina. Has one queen bed in the loft, pull out couch and child bunk beds downstairs, a fully functioning kitchen, heat, board games and a Smart TV. Relax by the fire pit or on the large porch swings. Enjoy time in the Great Smoky Mountains where you can have peace and quiet or enjoy the local outdoor adventures. With hiking, rafting, tubing, boating, shopping nearby, this is the perfect location. A short drive from Bryson City, where you can shop, visit the local breweries, or partake in the outdoor activities at the Nantahala Outdoor Center (white water rafting, zip lining). Also a short drive from the history and culture of Cherokee. The Harrah's casino is close if you enjoy concerts, gambling, and restaurants. The area is full of activities that will suit everyone! All ages will fall in love with the quaint atmosphere of this getaway. Located about 60 miles from the Asheville Regional Airport and all that Asheville has to offer. The craft breweries and Biltmore Estate are some must see Asheville land marks!
**The cabin is off a gravel (unpaved) road, 4-wheel drive or all-wheel drive recommended. **We recommend you arrive during daylight hours. **On the drive there is limited cell phone service due to the remote location. Wifi is available once at the cabin.

A for everything! Tucked away, no sounds but the running creek and an occasional bird. Spotless and well-stocked inside. The fire pit was divine. The electric stove has been replaced with a new flat-top since the picture in the add was taken. The Wi-Fi worked well, we were able to stream a movie each night from amazon. It is up a very-steep gravel road with switch backs so definitely glad we have a 4x4.

Thank you for the review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to having you back!
What a BEAUTIFUL place to just relax and unwind! The cabin itself is amazing and where it's located is even more so. All you can hear if you're outside is the mountain stream across from the driveway making that porch a little slice of heaven for sure. Just an all around amazing stay!

This rustic cabin was the perfect getaway for us. The drive up is not for the faint of heart, but if you are ok driving off-road this cabin is a great deal.

Thank you for the review! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay.
We enjoyed our stay in the peace and quiet that accompanied this beautiful cabin. The cabin was extremely clean. I could’ve stayed on the front porch swing for days reading my book and listening to the creek! We will most definitely be back! I highly recommend!
