Cabin rentals with a hot tub

Remote, cheerful, mountain cabin with hot tub.
This is the perfect Airbnb for a vacation in the mountains! I have stayed here twice and will be back again! The house is very comfortable and has everything you need. Sitting in the hot tub at night is very relaxing and you can see so many stars out. Be sure to explore all of the waterfalls in the area to!

Mid-Century Mountain Magic! Rare fenced yard!
We had a wonderful family time at Parker’s cabin. Has everything you may need to enjoy your time in the secluded woods of NC. Very private but with all the amenities you may need. Internet was good and the place very comfortable. It was quite rainy during our stay but we had no issues staying in and enjoying the hot tub from time to time. Would fully recommend this place to any one. Thank you Parker!

Amazing Views! Log cabin with hot tub + fire pit
Absolutely stunning views, incredible property and lovely landscaping made this a wonderful stay! The host was so helpful and our entire trip went perfectly!

The Blue Bear Cabin
We searched for a cabin for a long time, and in the end got tired of all the options and just picked this one. From the moment we entered we know we had made a great choice and we ended up booking an extra night. The cabin is supercosy and well organized, the view is amazing. There is one cabin at like 60 meters away or something but when you look out on your deck you feel like you're all alone in the world and it's a wonderful feeling. I can 100% recommend staying here.

Little Bear Creek Franklin/Highlands/Smoky Mts.
The Bear Den was a superb place to stay. Patricia was a wonderful host. This has been our best experience with an AirBnB this far. Patricia was super organized with all her information and we really appreciate her information she shared on everything there was to do in the neighborhood from Sightseeing to restaurant recommendations. The place was great. It did not have a nice mountain view like we have had with other placed but it was in a very tranquil location and it felt very private. We stayed with their with 4 adults and 2 teens and it was easy to sleep us all. The creek outside was awesome as well and gave our teens plenty of entertainment. No need to bring games or things to do, it's all there, including a hot tub to relax and corn hole for a bit of fun. It location is fab with the most beautiful windy roads and waterfalls just 10 minutes away. Would definitely recommend this place and hope to visit again.

The Pines - Spring Sale!
We loved our stay at the cabin, will keep it in mind for future stays!

Dog-friendly cabin w/ views, HOT TUB, game room
I was impressed of how spacious the home was on the inside and all of the amenities were perfect too!

Cozy Creek Front Tiny Cabin
Our stay here was absolutely lovely! The location right next to the creek was so peaceful and we fell asleep to the water noises, which was so relaxing! The hot tub was truly divine and a wonderful way to end the night! We have already booked our next stay at this lovely property!

Cozy + Secluded 180 Degree Mountain View Cabin
Photos don’t do it justice! Cant wait to come back in the fall. Loved the proximity to Pisgah and 10 mins to downtown but also felt secluded.

Modern Mountain View Cabin in the Treetops
So thankful to have found Jaclyn’s place. The view is breathtaking and she was the most responsive and kind host we’ve ever had. The chickens were such a cute addition to the stay! Will forever remember this place because I got engaged on the back patio 🥰 This place will forever be special to my fiancé and I and we will be back as soon as possible!! The pictures of the view from the kitchen and bedroom along with the 100 year old tub and massive shower don’t do it justice! Highly suggest you stay here if you can!

Unique Waterfall Cabin
Second time at this magical place and it’s so hard to leave. We sit on the deck and just marvel at nature in utter peace and quiet.

Riverfront Cabin | Mtn Views, Fishing & Rafting
We really enjoyed our time at the cabin. Location was great and the deck over the river's edge was wonderful. Only suggestion we would have is a vacuum for the cabin versus just a broom. Rate was great and we will be back.

Chattooga Lakefront Cabin w/ Hot Tub + Pvt. Dock!
This place was so peaceful and relaxing. We stayed on the dock or around the fire pit. Mornings were spent drinking coffee on the deck with the gorgeous lake views. Never even turned the TV on. The house was clean and well stocked. There’s lots to do in the area as well. Definitely will be back.

The Old Log Cabin
We loved it! Charming, cozy and clean. Loved sitting on the porch, watching hummingbirds feed. The whole family enjoyed exploring the beautiful yard. Perfect place!

The Homestead in Franklin, NC
Our second visit to this peaceful cabin. The hosts are wonderful and made the trip extra special for our birthday girl. We explored nearby towns of Dillsboro and Bryson. Wonderful restaurants and local shops. We drove ‘the tail of the dragon’ on our route in. Loved sitting on the porch and enjoying the view. Looking forward to coming again.

Shooting Star Ridge
Had a very peaceful few days in the shooting star lodge. Such a lovely place to relax and be surrounded in peace by nature. Very quiet and the cabin was extremely homely and we felt relaxed as soon as we walked in the door. Host was great with very clear instructions for arrival and on hand if we needed anything else. Recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in this part of the smokies.

Pisgah Highlands Chestnut Creek Cabin
The house is a very cute out in the mountains! The creek in the backyard and the sauna are easily the highlights!

Rustic Hideaway | Log Cabin | Pet Friendly | Cozy & Private
Absolutely the most beautiful authentic log cabin I have ever seen! This place is quiet, very private and can be reached with a regular car or truck. Amazing views, great fire pit, beautiful master bedroom with a one of a kind stone rainfall shower. Within 10 minutes drive to both Clayton Ga and Franklin NC, also close to state park with lots of hikes. Very responsive host, who checked in with us frequently and could not be more helpful.

17 Degrees North Mountain Cabin
Property (farm) is beautiful and well kept. Cabin is modern, well appointed, very clean and well cared for. Open views of the surrounding mountains, fields, river and farm animals is so nice it almost seems unreal. Note: there is not a full kitchen but instead a make shift kitchenette area with a portable burner, microwave, toaster oven, etc - fine for preparing simple meals. Excellent host. Good, fast, spot-on communication. Overall a quiet, ideal place to get away and relax.

Rainbow's End Mountain Lake House
Beautiful place. Anniversary trip for us to get away. Rainbow Lake is really more of a pond, but still loved canoeing on it. Very clean and comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked and loved having a screen porch to enjoy the property without the bugs. Matt was very responsive. Would definitely stay again.

Secluded House of Windows with Breathtaking View
We stayed at the cabin for a week in May, to ride around on motorcycle and do some white water rafting. The view from both floors of the cabin was picturesque. Water gets hot quick and has good pressure, kitchen has everything you need. Great WiFi and smart tv to watch anything. Hot tub on deck is excellent after a long day of activities in the mountains. Driveway in community and up to cabin is beautiful, however steep and challenging on a motorcycle - but doable. Highly recommend this cabin, super private and secluded. About a 20 minutes to and from nearest town/restaurants, but that’s the beauty of it. Highly recommend, Casey is great and so is cabin.

Sassy Cabin Views Creek Sounds Mins to Downtown
The house was beautiful. Exactly as described. Jen and Jason were super helpful and accommodating. Due to a storm there was a loss of power and Jen and Jason were helpful about what to do and how to remedy the situation.

HotTub-FirePit-Views-Hike state park from cabin!
This Airbnb was a dream! Helpful hosts, clean and spacious living areas so we always felt like we had a place to sit around and hang out, ample seating outside, full kitchen, and a grill with propane ready to go. It was honestly a great place to stay for a girls trip away and would definitely stay again!

Hilltop*Heaven*Private*Hiking*Nature
This was one of my favorite Air BNB’s to date! Everything was phenomenal and it was the perfect weekend getaway. Super secluded and everything as described. We look forward to staying here again in the future.
