About this property

Wow!!! Creekside Cabin with Hot Tub, Fire Pit & Starlink High Speed WiFi!!

The perfect Winter escape!!!! State maintained road, 4 wheel drive not required!!! Come, enjoy total privacy, including no contact self check-in, at this immaculate cabin in the Nantahala National Forest!

***If your group needs additional accommodations please view our other vacation rental just 3 doors down at VRBO # 7935707***

Don't miss out on this dream of a vacation cabin!! Enjoy the seclusion of a creekside mountain retreat in this 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin with private hot tub.
The property borders the beautiful Nantahala National Forest of the Great Smoky Mountains and offers an abundance of exploration. Let the sounds of the rushing waters soothe your soul day and night. Walk across our bridge to enjoy bonfires or even pitch a tent for the night on our property across the river which is lit by festive cafe lights strung around the campfire. Hike through the Nantahala National Forest right out the backdoor. Or if you prefer the creature comforts, enjoy the fully equipped kitchen, comfortable new beds (King and Queen), new gas logs in our stone fireplace, Wi-Fi, large flat screen TV in the den and another in the King Bedroom with Dish Programming. Read a book or just gaze at the river from the sunroom/sleep porch with its comfortable oversized chairs and sofa which opens into a queen sleeper sofa. Enjoy family dining at the large dining table beautifully made of reclaimed barnwood.

Conveniently located on the Wayah Road section of Mountain Waters Scenic Byway, a paved road, the home is easily accessible even during inclement weather. We're just far enough out of downtown Franklin (8 miles) to be secluded yet we're directly on the way to Wayah Bald, Nantahala Outdoor Center, Lake Nantahala and The Appalachian Trail. Franklin/Macon County has 16 local water falls, world renown gem mining, and numerous biking and hiking trails including the Appalachian Trail and Bartram Trail. Grocery shopping and restaurants are less than 10 minutes away. A quick 15 minutes to downtown Franklin you'll find antique shops, local crafts, restaurants, entertainment and two locally owned Micro Brewery Pubs. Adventures are abundant in every direction - or you may choose to never leave once you've arrived!

***We are ensuring the health and well being of each guest by following CDC Guidelines to disinfect and sanitize with an EPA approved cleaner all hard surfaces, door knobs, remote controls, faucets, cabinet pulls and other areas in order to protect against COVID 19. In fact, all those measures were part of our regular cleaning long before this crisis! Rest assured, unlike a hotel or resort, this is our personal home and we take pride in our high standard of hygiene for ourselves and our guests***

The perfect family weekend!

This cabin and it's location gave us the perfect family weekend. We hiked to waterfalls, drove to Wayah Bald, and visited the Lazy Hiker Brewery... but we were always just as eager to get back to the cabin and enjoy the creek, fire pit, and hot tub! The proximity to hiking trails and to town were great for us, and we would definitely return!

Visit to Franklin NC for hiking adventures

A planned weekend away from the hustle and bussle of work life. We hiked on part of the Appalachian Trail, to experience Wayah Bald, Wesser Fire Tower and saw many waterfalls. Franklin is one of our favorite places to visit. The locals are extremely nice. There is so much to see and do. We are actually looking forward to becoming transplants to Franklin one day in the future.

Beautiful spot!

We loved our stay! The communication with the property manager was great, she was very quick to respond to some questions we had about the area. The house is very clean and the beds were comfy. We loved the hot tub and our children loved the stream. We had a campfire one night as well. A great family friendly spot that we will definitely consider again!

LOVED that it was right on the creek as advertised!!!!! Easy drive up - we backed in to park as trying to back out onto the paved road was nerve racking ( for me , not for my husband ;) ) will stay again!!!

Great place for a quick getaway

The house had everything we needed for a relaxing two night getaway, and the hot tub next to the creek was delightful. The house is much closer to the road than the photos make it seem, and although there is not much traffic, headlights shine into the 2nd bedroom whenever a car does come by.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Reynolds

Host profile image
Hello, thanks for viewing our property! We bought this home in 2016 because we loved the location on the stream and the fact it is always 10 degrees cooler here than in downtown Franklin! We live a large part of the time in Georgia where summertime heat is inescapable and the Fall leaves are never quite as spectacular. We decided in June of 2017 to share what we think is a wonderful mountain retreat with others. We hope you love it as much as we do! We have another home 3 doors down if you need more space, VRBO #7935707 as well as another 11 miles away on Lake Nantahala, VRBO # 9453752. Additionally we have 2 vacation homes in the Florida Keys (VRBO #1027392 and VRBO # 2413494) and another on a beautiful lake in Central Florida, VRBO #1090075.
We take pride in offering guests immaculate surroundings with tasteful decor and all the creature comforts of home. Your comments and suggestions are welcome as we strive to provide a seamless vacation for our guests! We will be easily accessible via telephone, text, and e-mail before and during your stay. Thank you for considering booking with us.....I hope you'll become a repeat visitor!
