* Note - The property amenities show a hot tub, but this property actually has a 4-6 person true Finnish wood dry/steam Sauna that is riverfront! It's awesome, but is not a hot-tub, however VRBO does not have an option to list a Sauna as an amenity *
If this property is booked, check out our NEW VRBO# 2040614 (Crystal Creek ARCADE house) - Awesome spring fed creek, huge treehouse style decks, ARCADE w/ VR and classic games, ping pong, and two 65" tv's w/ 100's of movies!
This is simply a dream come true property! - 3 Bedroom, 3.5 Bath - Quiet Riverfront on the Whitewater River, close to Cashiers, with no traffic noise, and truly the most amazing destinations & amenities in all of Western NC, right at your fingertips, all in the back yard & within a short walking distance! Imagine the most beautiful waterfalls, river stretches, fishing, hiking and trails in the Smokies, but having it all to yourself. This property is one of only 6 that has access to a huge area of Nantahala national forest where you can hike, hunt, fish and play year round. ALL pictures shown on this site are taken either in the back yard, or within a 1 mile walk from the property, and will NOT be found on any tourist map! Our guests all receive lots of detailed information after booking that will tell you all about our favorite secret spots both in the private trail areas and in the Cashiers area.

The Cabin - All on one level, with huge open living, chef's kitchen, stone fireplace and an elevated walkway that leads to a huge riverfront gazebo with stone grill. Then, a true Finnish Sauna for 4-6 that's on the river, with a path to crystal clear water for true hot/cold immersion therapy. The ultimate in riverfront luxury and relaxation! Plenty of flat area parking, and just one mile off of Highway 107, 6 miles South of Cashiers NC.
The Layout: (All beds are new memory foam mattresses!)
One King river view master suite with private bath and huge window shower
One Queen river view suite with private bath
One double twin bed suite (that can be pushed together) with private bath
Huge comfy sectional sofa and queen blowup mattress, with 1/2 bath in the large open living area, so guest 7 & 8 have their own bath too.
The crystal clear Whitewater River is your back yard, where you can fly fish for trout, then enjoy the huge grill, sauna & cabana overlooking the river. The river is mostly inaccessible to public fishing, and the trout are fed regularly, so some of the best fly fishing in NC is literally in the back yard. Nestled inside the Nantahala National Forest, this property literally puts everything you want to see and do in Western NC right at your fingertips, so wildlife, including amazing trout fishing literally from the yard, abounds. We maintain a private trail system that consists of roughly a 2.5 mile loop, featuring 6 names falls, and scores of other beautiful creeks and river areas to explore and play. It's like having a dozen of the most popular hiking trails and falls in Western NC, but having them all to yourself in a very condensed, private area. Our guests are always overwhelmed that it's actually true, and even better then they imagined. We love sharing our dream come true property!
The living space in this home is huge, and offers a large screened in porch and miles of windows to allow the beauty of the surroundings in. Nature, beautiful water, and adventure surround the home, and inside awaits the most comfortable, relaxing space that the all new decor could create. Imagine the best of Western NC waterfall country outside, and a spa inside.
Have a big group? We also have a larger, multi-cabin property on the same road (VRBO #869552) that has been very successful, so If you have a larger group, check that one out! It has access to the same trails and falls, and is one mile away on the same road.
Truly the only property in Western NC that offers EVERYTHING, including private hiking and access to Waterfalls, fishing and swimming that top anything on the public maps. Imagine the best water in NC all to yourself, and this is IT! No lines in peak season, and four seasons of photographic beauty to enjoy. This spacious 3 bedroom 3.5 bath has 2.5 acres on the Whitewater River with 4 season lounging & privacy, but only 6 miles to shopping & dining in Cashiers NC!
The riverfront features an elevated walkway to a large cabana overlooking the river. Sip wine or grill your favorite steak while you soak up the gentle sounds of water, and look across the river into beautiful national forest. There is NO highway noise to interrupt your serenity here!
Surrounded by National Forest in a secluded private neighborhood, you're in the heart of waterfall country, just 6 miles to town, and can walk to the most scenic waterfalls, tubing and swimming imaginable. There is simply nothing like this available so grab it while you can as it's brand new to the market.
**Things to keep in mind about Western NC - There are bugs, thunderstorms, little to no cell signals in the entire area of Western NC, and communications are almost exclusively via satellite, so please know that being in nature does come with some risks, but we do all we can to work around them by offering satellite internet that has several hours of backup power supply, landline phones (w/ free long distance), and close proximity to town.
Additional Note on Connectivity - From this property, we're able to work, make calls over wifi as well as landline, and conduct Zoom meetings and attend school via online classes. We actually have two satellites dedicated to Wi-Fi, just in case of a hardware crash, etc, so we have twice the capacity of other cabins, and redundancy in equipment. The WiFi systems also have battery backup, so even in a power outage the internet still works. We're also in the process of adding an entire house backup automatic power supply, which will be completed in late 2020. Also, the landline phone works with or without electricity, so that calls can always be made in or out during an emergency, or simply for convenience. We're trying to offer the best combination package of connectivity available in Western NC, but there will not be cell phone service at the house, or pretty much anywhere in the county that you plan to hike or drive.
