A perfect place to enjoy both the indoors and outdoors.  Huge deck with plenty of room to sit and enjoy the sound of the creek that runs along side the property.
Located in a cove, sitting on 5 acres of wooded land, you'll enjoy the space to roam, sit by the fire pit, or play in the creek.
Living room is a comfy space to catch up and enjoy family and friend time.
A spacious kitchen with everything you need to cook and make meals....or go out and enjoy the many restaurants and coffee shops a few minutes from the cabin.

Lower level of the "sun tower" is a great space to unwind with natural light flooding through the many windows.  The gray chairs fold out as twin beds for extra sleeping options.

Upstairs in the loft is a queen bed.  Crack open the windows on nice nights to listen to the creek lull you to sleep.
The loft space is one of our favorite spots to rest and look out over the property.
Bedroom #1 has a super comfortable queen bed.
Bedroom #1: A view of the woods all around.

About this place

Peaceful 5 acres with creek! Central to WNC!

This updated cozy cottage sits on 5 magical acres with a bubbling creek, tucked away in a private cove, yet is centrally located to all the best of Western NC. You'll love sitting on the spacious deck, enjoying the firepit or exploring the woods. This nook of the woods feels far away from everything, but is just 3 minutes to Dillsboro, 9 minutes from Sylva main street, 20 to Cullowhee. These towns have excellent restaurants, coffee shops, breweries and unique stores. GOOD CELL SERVICE NO WIFI
A few minutes from the Tuckesegee river and only 20 minutes from Cherokee and Bryson City, half an hour from Nanthala outdoor center, Waynesville and Franklin. Less than an hour to Asheville for a great day trip. You are surrounded by gorgeous hiking trails and waterfalls in the area. Top notch mountain biking is nearby at Fire mountain trails.
