About this property

Cozy NC Red Barn Mtn Cabin w/ Woodstove & Firepit • Mins to Harrah's Casino

Escape to The Holly House on Candy Mountain—your private retreat where peace and adventure meet. Set on 3 wooded acres, this cozy cabin offers quiet mornings and star-filled nights, just minutes from lakes, hiking, and rafting on the Ocoee River. Enjoy nearby dining, shopping, and entertainment, including Harrah's Cherokee Valley River Casino & Hotel. The perfect home base to relax or explore.

Surrounded by nature, you’ll enjoy quiet mornings, fresh mountain air, and evenings under the stars. It’s the kind of place where you can truly unplug… or stay connected if needed.

Just a short drive away, you’ll find no shortage of things to do. Within 45 minutes, there are 11 lakes and rivers to explore, along with world-class whitewater rafting only 15 miles away on the Ocoee River. The area also offers hiking trails, horseback riding, scenic overlooks, charming local shops, and great dining options—giving you the best of both adventure and small-town charm.

A couple things to know before you arrive:

- Road Access: The road through the community is an unimproved dirt and gravel road. Vehicles with low ground clearance may have difficulty. SUVs or trucks are strongly recommended.
- Cell Service & Connectivity: There is no cell service at the cabin. However, we provide high-speed Starlink internet that works great. Guests should plan to enable Wi-Fi calling on their phones to stay connected during their stay.

I absolutely adored staying in this cabin! The drive up to it is definitely worth the peace & quiet you get up there. It’s very centrally located to hiking trails galore, antique shops, local attractions, and it’s only a 45min drive to Mercier Orchards in Blue Ridge GA. Communication with the owners was wonderful, and the little touches they put out really made it feel personal. I would absolutely stay here again!
