Chestnut House by CM | Pet-Friendly Cabin w/Mountain Views & River Access

Chestnut House offers five-star log cabin charm in the heart of the Smoky Mountains. This hand-hewn log cabin vacation home in Canton, North Carolina, is ideally located halfway between Asheville and Maggie Valley, close to countless adventure opportunities—hiking to waterfalls, fishing, kayaking, tubing, and cruising the Blue Ridge Parkway. Nestled in a private rural community, Chestnut House is a gem of a mountain getaway, perfect for reconnecting with loved ones. The interior is rich with character, featuring antiques and enchanting decor that give the space a cozy, well-loved feel. Every room showcases mountain views and exquisite custom woodwork, including rare wormy chestnut railings, paneling, and cabinetry. Hardwood floors and bespoke log furnishings surround a massive, double-sided stone hearth—one side with a woodstove in the living room, the other with a wood-burning fireplace in the kitchen.

The gourmet kitchen is bright, cheerful, and spacious—ideal for preparing a family feast. A large butcher block island invites group cooking sessions, while the generous dining table offers the perfect spot to gather and watch hummingbirds through the picture window. A favorite feature is the wide, covered front deck, offering ever-changing views of Lickstone Bald on the horizon. Grill out and dine in the wooded picnic area as clouds roll between distant peaks. Create timeless traditions with classic mountain moments: rocking on the deck, chasing fireflies in the field, stoking the fire pit, listening to the river in the valley, or watching the mountain silhouette fade into the night sky. Imagine settling into a glider in the kitchen, fire crackling in the hearth, as a radiant warmth fills the cabin. For a truly unforgettable Asheville log cabin vacation rental, Chestnut House stands a step above the rest—offering a once-in-a-lifetime mountain escape. This Asheville vacation rental is located in Canton and is approximately 40 minutes from downtown Asheville.
