Summary:

The Space:
Enjoy unwinding in a charming cabin within the Coosawattee River Resort, outfitted with everything you need to relax in the mountains.
Spend time outdoors on the back deck where there's an entire living area set up with a gas fireplace perfect for unwinding together while taking in views of Short Range. The outdoor firepit is a great spot to enjoy alfresco dining. Just grab a seat at one of the picnic tables as the stars come out. Inside, you'll have the choice of warming up next to the fireplace or kicking back in the cool central air-conditioning. The high ceilings and wood paneling are sure to put you in a cabin mood! The impressive full kitchen features upscale mounted appliances, as well as a deluxe prep island with an extended section that doubles perfectly as a dining table. The lowest level features a game room with a Ping-Pong table, plus a wine fridge so you can store refreshments until you're ready to pop the cork. On the highest level, cuddle up with a book and enjoy the calm space.
