***If your group needs additional accommodation please view our other holiday rental just 3 doors down at VRBO # 7935707***

Don't miss out on this dream of a holiday cabin!! Enjoy the seclusion of a creekside mountain retreat in this 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin with private hot tub.
The property borders the beautiful Nantahala National Forest of the Great Smoky Mountains and offers an abundance of exploration. Let the sounds of the rushing waters soothe your soul day and night. Walk across our bridge to enjoy bonfires or even pitch a tent for the night on our property across the river which is lit by festive cafe lights strung around the campfire. Hike through the Nantahala National Forest right out the backdoor. Or if you prefer the creature comforts, enjoy the fully equipped kitchen, comfortable new beds (King and Queen), new gas logs in our stone fireplace, Wi-Fi, large flat screen TV in the den and another in the King Bedroom with Dish Programming. Read a book or just gaze at the river from the sunroom/sleep porch with its comfortable oversized chairs and sofa which opens into a queen sleeper sofa. Enjoy family dining at the large dining table beautifully made of reclaimed barnwood.

Conveniently located on the Wayah Road section of Mountain Waters Scenic Byway, a paved road, the home is easily accessible even during inclement weather. We're just far enough out of city centre Franklin (8 miles) to be secluded yet we're directly on the way to Wayah Bald, Nantahala Outdoor Centre, Lake Nantahala and The Appalachian Trail. Franklin/Macon County has 16 local water falls, world renown gem mining, and numerous biking and hiking trails including the Appalachian Trail and Bartram Trail. Grocery shopping and restaurants are less than 10 minutes away. A quick 15 minutes to city centre Franklin you'll find antique shops, local crafts, restaurants, entertainment and two locally owned Micro Brewery Pubs. Adventures are abundant in every direction - or you may choose to never leave once you've arrived!

We highly recommend this Creekside cabin! Our family had an incredibly relaxing stay and loved all the amenities, especially the peaceful creek, the hot tub, fire pit, and the convenient location close to so many beautiful hiking trails.Our favorite adventure was hiking to Rufus Morgan Falls, and the panoramic views from Wayah Bald were absolutely breathtaking. It was the perfect combination of outdoor adventure and peaceful mountain relaxation.The cabin was comfortable, well-equipped, and made a wonderful home base for exploring the Franklin area. Kathy was super easy to communicate with and answered all of our questions. We would definitely stay here again!

I cannot tell you how much my little family enjoyed this cabin by the stream. The cabin itself was perfect and had everything we needed, but the property was just amazing for us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and my son says that he can’t wait to rent this cabin again and again.

We had an amazing stay. The beds were comfortable, the cabin was very clean with a warm and cozy environment. We enjoyed that we could hear the stream while we were sleeping. Would definitely rate this stay 10/10 and were already talking about booking it again in August.

This was a neat little place on the river! The host was very welcoming and had a list of nearby things to do as well. I found it very odd having to take our trash to the dump ourselves, but we made it happen though. Wouldn’t mind coming back and staying here again.

Our second stay at this lovely home on a pretty creek. Well-stocked kitchen and extremely comfy furniture and beds. Clean hot tub overlooking creek. Kids loved the giant tv that connected to their favorite streaming services. Multiple outdoor spots including creekside fire pit to enjoy coffee/wine. Sparkling clean interior and exterior. Wayah Road is one of the prettiest drives in WNC. Farmland, lush forest, Mountain views at Wayah Bald, great waterfall hike minutes away on Rufus Morgan trail. Host is so kind and excels at customer service. Very responsive to any issues.
