This is our second rental, located in Nantahala, NC, both Rentals are located near each other for family gatherings or just a couples weekend away. (1st Rental VRBO #305973). Scotty completely remodeled the inside of this adorable cabin, which seems open and large with 20 ft ceilings. There is also wood burning fireplace, which gives you a cozy atmosphere, you will go home feeling relaxed after staying with us at Timberwood.
Timberwood is just minutes for the Famous Nantahala River, where thousands of Families come each year to Raft. If Fishing is your Desire, the Upper Nantahala River is just 5 minutes from the cabin. It is one of the two NC Rivers to be named in the top 100 Trout Streams Nationally, by Trout Unlimited. It is Lake Nantahala is 3 miles from the cabin, where there is a Marina as well as a Restaurant. At the Marina, you can rent Pontoons, Canoes, and Kayaks and explore the Gorgeous Mountain Lake. Another fun venture, is to hike up Silar Bald or Parts of the Historic Appalachian Trail . You can also enjoy the Beautiful Scenic three dimensional views from the top of the Acclaimed Wayah Bald. If a day trip is what you desire, we are just 90 minutes from the Iconic Biltmore House in Asheville, NC as well traveling through the Great Smokey Mountain National Park into t Gatlinburg, TN. If motorcycling is your hearts desire, Thunder Road is what they call Wayah Rd, which runs right in front of the cabin. If you are quite the daredevil, you would love to ride "The Tail of the Dragon", this route consist of 318 curves in 11 miles. It is considered " America's number one motorcycle and sports car road" connecting NC to TN. The things the Mountains has to offer is endless, we look forward to you coming and stay with us at Timberwood Cottage.

You were absolutely the best guest that I have ever had in the 25 years that we have been in the rental business. You really took care of our cabin as if it was your own. So neat and tidy, followed all instructions. I’d give you a 10 if I could, hoping that you’ll return again to stay with us.

Cabin was very clean, beds were comfy, hot tub was wonderful. Only slight negative was the driveway. It was a bit steep. For a truck and trailer, it was fine. Plenty of room to maunver around. But we had motorcycles so getting up and down that driveway was a bit sketchy. It was doable but challenging. The propane bottle ran out of gas but the hosts were very quick to respond and get it corrected. Would stay here again

Thanksgiving weekend getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the cabin has all the essentials, easy access, level parking with an open expanse around the property. It’s close to great hiking in the Nantahala Forest- we enjoyed the fire place and hot tub to warm up after the hikes. Beds were comfy- we would definitely like to rerun here again. Great hosts!
