About this property

TREE TOPS IN THE MOUNTAINS

Tree Tops cabin is a beautiful log home located between Dillsboro and Franklin in the gated Watauga Vista community. There are hiking trails throughout the community. The home has a spacious Great Room with tongue and groove cathedral ceilings throughout with a gas log stove (fall and winter use). The well-appointed kitchen offers granite countertops with microwave, dishwasher, and gas stove. The cabin affords beautiful long-range views with a wrap-around deck and plenty of chairs to enjoy the view. A picnic table on the deck offers the opportunity to enjoy a meal while savoring the view. There is satellite TV, WIFI and great cell reception. Easy access even at a cool 3400 foot elevation with magnificent long range views of the ridge of the Appalachian trail. Central air/heat . Sorry, NO PETS. “There are stairs from the driveway to porch and main level of house. There are stairs to master suite and also to laundry in basement. If you have any issues at all with climbing stairs, this cabin may not be for you”.

Great views
The cabin was a great base camp for our fishing trip. We especially enjoyed the wonderful views from the porch with our dinner each evening, lingering out there until well after dark.

Tree Tops Above Franklin
I you can imagine being in the tree’s canopy and becoming a leaf, part of the tree, this beautiful, spacious and well appointed residence is for you. Views of the surrounding Mountains and peaks are Amazing. This setting coupled with all of the furnishings you need make for a worthwhile memorable vacation. I can’t compliment the owners enough, what an awesome home! We will definitely be back.

You can see for miles and miles
What a view! You're able to see many mountain ranges over 23 miles away! The cabin was everything we needed and more. Extremely clean, and well kept. Very, very easy to find, you won't need a 4 wheel on this road! No neighbors, yet close to everything you might want to do! Sara, was so very helpful and quick to answer any questions! We'll be back soon!!!
