About this property
River Access & Hot Showers
Clean and cozy glamping yurt at a mountaintop retreat. Includes private use of a climate-controlled building ten feet away that has a full bathroom and can act as an entertaining room and/or additional sleeping area. Beds have top-notch linens, coffee bar is stocked, and Wifi is fast and reliable. Come stay and play! Guests enjoy unlimited access to five acres of trails, scenic outlooks, and wildlife. There’s even a trail down to the Little Tennessee River; plenty to explore on-site or at nearby Nantahala Outdoor Center and Bryson City.
This listing is for the yurt and game room building, including the surrounding deck, basketball play area, and gardens. Guests also have access to the 5 acres around the house, including trails and river access.
The portion of the property that is not part of this listing are the two other buildings at the top of the driveway: the large main villa and the two-story cabin. For those who need more space or prefer absolute privacy, the entire property is available for rent in a separate listing.
We will be as present or as unimposing as you'd like. Some guests prefer self check-in with minimal interactions; others want to know the property’s history and where to find the perfect meal. Whichever is your preference, we are happy to accommodate. Let us know how to make this trip the best experience of your life!
Although it feels like a mountain to yourself, you are just minutes away from Cardinal Coffee shop, local boat ramp and restaurants, and of course Nantahala Outdoor Center. More shopping and a quaint downtown are a 20-minute drive to Bryson City NC.
You won't want to leave, but the property is also convenient to: Smoky Mountain National Park - 35 min Cherokee NC / Harrah's Casino - 30 min Fontana Lake - 30 min Tail of the Dragon - 20 min Asheville NC / Biltmore Hotel - 1 hour 20 min Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg / Dollywood - 1 hour 30 min Knoxville TN / University of Tennessee - 2 hour 30 min
