YOU HAVE FOUND THE PERFECT CABIN ON THE NANTAHALA RIVER NEAR BRYSON CITY!

Nantahala River Lodge is a unique riverfront cabin on the Nantahala River. It is a rare and magnificent opportunity to have the rushing river a few steps from your front door. The Nantahala River Lodge offers privacy, an outstanding location, luxury accommodations, world class fishing and so much more.

We custom designed and built our cabin with reclaimed wood from our family's North Carolina cabins and barn. Native stone was used inside and out. We furnished our home with handcrafted furniture and transformed family heirlooms into art. Every detail was carefully considered as we blended our family history into the creation of the Nantahala River Lodge. The Lodge offers accommodations for up to 8 people. Every room offers a view of the river. We encourage you to open the windows to bring the soothing river sounds indoors.

Riverfront cabin

This property was perfect. The cabin and grounds are well kept and they have thought of everything for their guests. And for an added bonus the fishing was great.

Amazing

The craftsmanship that went into the lodge is incredible! The beautiful landscape is something to behold! The owners have thought about every possible need and desire! They even thought of our old lab dog that goes everywhere we go. We loved our time there. We will be back again!

Simply Peaceful

This was our second stay at the River Lodge. The first time was 8-9 years ago when my wife was pregnant with our oldest daughter. This home and property was amazing then and even more beautiful today. The memories made with my wife and two daughters will never be forgotten. Annette and Mickey, thank you for creating one of the greatest memory making places on earth, we hope to be back next year to make even more! What a blessing to have the opportunity to experience this beautiful place.

Fly fishing paradise !

From the original booking to the final checkout, Mickey and Annette were fantastic hosts. Their helpful notes and "instruction sheets" were very detailed and made everything simple and was the best VRBO experience I have had....and I have had more than a few. As for the property.....It is the perfect spot for a relaxing fly fishing get away. Myself and 2 friends caught and released approximately 60 trout in 3 days including a rainbow in the 20" range right behind the house. The house is an amazing cabin with a lot of great details and character. The pictures are a good representation. It is set up with pretty much everything you might need except for food. This was my first trip to this property and we are already talking about when we might be able to return. Thanks to the hosts for a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by Annette and Mickey

Mickey's grandparents came to this area for their honeymoon in 1921. It has been a long standing tradition to enjoy and care for this area. We've been making memories and friends here for three generations. We can help our guests make the most of their vacation.

Why they chose this property

We love the Great Smoky Mountains, especially the uniqueness of the Nantahala Gorge. We were thrilled to build our home on the banks of the Nantahala River. We have learned through the years that each of the 4 seasons is indeed distinct, unique and wonderful.

What makes this property unique

We love listening to the sound of the river. It's also nice to fish and swim in our front yard. The Lodge is located on a Scenic Byway and has very quick access to all of our favorite activities.
