Great Smoky Mountains Retreat
Our secluded lot and open floor plan with lots of windows and glass doors brings the outdoors in. The views of the Smoky Mountains and Lake Fontana are priceless. Our house is very private as it sits on the top of the mountain a mile off the beaten path. 4 wheel drive is recommend as the driveway is steep and winding. If you are looking for privacy this house is for you. The master is on the main floor. There are 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom upstairs. The basement space was a garage and converted into 2 bedrooms. This is a great space for teenagers. Our living room table converts into a pool table, ping pong and card table. If you have a boat we have a dock you can use too. The Wilderness ramp is very close. We have a hot tub and outdoor kitchen that is great to use especially in the fall/winter. There are 4 cable tv’s in the house and one outside on the porch. There is plenty of room for parking multiple vehicles. Hunting is not allowed on our property but a weapon/ bear spray is recommended for protection from animals. Bears are seen in the area at times. There are some amazing hiking and bike trails nearby if you are looking for some excitement. The Nantahala Outdoor Center is about 30 minutes from house. They offer dining , zip lining and whitewater rafting. Kids love playing in the river there. River’s Edge restaurant has delicious food right on the river. I would recommend bringing your groceries with you as the closest grocery store is about 25 minutes away in Bryson city.

We had 10 people including 4 kids aged 3-9. Everything was great. The host was very responsive before and during our trip when we had questions. The property is even more beautiful than the pictures show you and the view is epic!
This property has the best view of the mountains!
Multiple outside areas for relaxing and enjoying the scenery. House was clean with plenty of towels and kitchen items. Hosts were extremely responsive. Hope to return next summer.
