A mix of a magical fairy forest and a picturesque Appalachian cabin, this place feels like stepping into a storybook. The sound of the babbling creek washes away every worry, and the moss-covered rocks glisten like something out of a dream. Each sunrise paints the mountains in soft gold and pink, making every morning worth waking up early for.The cabin itself is decorated to perfection, filled with antique tools and rustic furniture that stay true to its mountain charm, balanced with just the right modern comforts to make it cozy and welcoming. You can tell every detail was chosen with care.If I could, I’d pick this place a million times over. It’s pure magic.

About the host

Hosted by Brianna McIntosh

Host profile image
Hi! I'm a woman Veteran, the founder of a therapeutic yoga and wellness business in Georgia, and the proud owner of The Hemlock Hideaway—my first Airbnb.


I have a passion for restoring and renovating homes and am currently bringing an old Bronco back to life. I also volunteer as a domestic violence advocate, a cause that's very close to my heart.
When I'm not working, you'll usually find me rock hounding, mushroom hunting, chasing waterfalls, or writing. My favorite app is Seek—I love identifying the incredible plants, fungi, and wildlife found in the mountains. I also enjoy a great glass of wine and have yet to meet a food I didn't like!
I hope you enjoy the beauty, peace, and adventure of this special place as much as I do. Welcome to The Hemlock Hideaway!

Why they chose this property


I chose this area because it offers the perfect balance of peace, natural beauty, and adventure. The cabin is tucked away in the mountains where you can relax to the sounds of the creek and waterfall, watch wildlife, enjoy dark starry skies, and truly unplug from the busyness of everyday life.
One of my favorite things about this area is that you're surrounded by incredible outdoor recreation. From hiking, waterfalls, kayaking, and fishing to scenic drives and Lake Santeetlah, there's always something to explore. Even the drive to the cabin is part of the experience, winding through the beautiful Nantahala Mountains.
While the setting feels like a peaceful retreat, you're still within a short drive of Robbinsville for groceries, restaurants, and other essentials.

What makes this property unique

The Hemlock Hideaway blends rustic mountain charm with peaceful creekside living. Filled with thoughtfully chosen antiques and cozy touches, the cabin offers a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like stepping back to a simpler time.


What truly makes this property special is its setting. The cabin sits directly beside a large mountain creek with its own beautiful waterfall, creating a relaxing soundtrack throughout your stay. Whether you're soaking in the hot tub, enjoying coffee on the wraparound porch, gathering around the fire pit, or simply listening to the rushing water, you'll be surrounded by the beauty of nature.
With access to Lake Santeetlah, canoes and a kayak for exploring, and endless opportunities for hiking, waterfalls, and wildlife, The Hemlock Hideaway is more than just a place to stay—it's a place to slow down, reconnect, and make lasting memories.
