Romantic Adventure Cabin w/Hot Tub+Mountain Views

We can't adequately describe how peaceful it is to sit in the HOT TUB on the deck & watch the sunset turn the sky pink & purple over the Smoky Mountains. We purposely tucked the cabin high up against the mountainside to achieve the most incredible view! Evenings around the Fire pit w/the stars are simply magical! Guests come to hike the Appalachian trail, whitewater raft the Nantahala River, and to just rest in an amazingly cozy & romantic mountain cabin with a hot tub and view of a lifetime.
