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! Guest cliff jump at the secret swimming hole, canoe the lake, hike the Appalachian trail, whitewater raft the Nantahala River, and rest in an amazingly cozy & romantic mountain cabin.
