About this property
Hike, Raft, Relax, Repeat
Tucked into the quiet beauty of the mountains, Payton’s Place is where slow mornings and crackling fire nights come naturally. Just minutes from Lake Fontana, this freshly remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath home blends comfort, charm, and convenience—perfect for couples, small families, or a peaceful getaway with friends.
Step inside and you’ll find a bright, open space with all-new flooring, fixtures, and finishes throughout. The living room invites you to unwind with a 50” flatscreen TV, Roku, and WiFi—whether you're catching up on your favorite shows or simply enjoying a quiet night in.
Outside, the covered front porch is made for morning coffee or evening conversations, with comfortable seating and a view of the surrounding woods.
As the sun dips behind the trees, gather around the outdoor fire pit with Adirondack chairs—perfect for roasting marshmallows, telling stories, or just enjoying the stillness. A cornhole game adds a fun, laid-back touch for guests of all ages.
Location is everything, and you’re right in the middle of it all:
*Just minutes to Lake Fontana for boating, fishing, or relaxing by the water
*A short drive to Bryson City for dining, shops, and the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad
*Close to Cherokee for cultural experiences and Harrah’s Casino
*Near the Nantahala Outdoor Center for whitewater rafting, hiking, and outdoor adventure
Whether you’re here to explore or simply unplug, Payton’s Place gives you the best of both worlds—easy access to adventure with a peaceful place to come home to.
