We had a wonderful week at the cabin and really enjoyed our stay. The location was beautiful, peaceful, and exactly what our family was looking for. The mountain views were incredible and something we looked forward to every morning and evening. The hot tub was another highlight after a day of exploring, and the cabin had everything we needed to feel comfortable during our stay.There were just a few minor housekeeping and maintenance items that kept it from being a perfect stay for us. We felt the cabin could benefit from a deeper cleaning (it's possible there was some time it sat between guests - it's a secluded mountain cabin after all), and we shared a minor maintenance concern with the host privately. This wasn't enough to take away from our trip, but taking care of those items would make an already wonderful cabin even better.Overall, we had a fantastic time, the host was very responsive, and would absolutely recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a relaxing mountain getaway. Thank you for sharing your home with our family!

Where to start!? This place is absolutely amazing! For starters upon booking the cabin I messaged the owner to check on parking and ability for a trailer as we planned in bringing the motorcycle. The response was quick and there was plenty of room to maneuver a dually and 14' trailer without any issues. The road up to the cabin is steep and very windy but stay the speed limit and you will have no issues. The neighborhood if you can call it that is beautiful and very clean and everyone we encountered were very nice. The cabin itself...it is top notch! The sunrise views are breathtaking, and getting to watch those from the master bedroom in bed is nothing short of spectacular. The master shower is HUGE and leaves you eanting multiple showers a day. The owners have thought of everything; if you have a dog and forgot their bed they have you covered, forgot their outside yard lead they have you covered here too with a corkscrew and plenty of leash. There is a babya gate for the stairs incase you have youngins and forget a baby gate. The kitchen countertops are a very cool epoxy of different colors. The hot tub is plenty big enough for a small family and works as it should!! The one down side i have to say is...I had to leave. Without a doubt we will be back to Nantahala Nook!

We found Nantahala Nook to be the perfect home for our vacation. The home had everything we needed, plus some. The road up to the home was not too bad and the wildlife such as deer, rabbits, and woodchucks were an added surprise. Communication with the hostess was outstanding and she really did go out of her way whenever we had a question. My kids enjoyed the game room while I enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the fireflies every night. The home was close to everything we wanted to do, but was still secluded. My family is already talking about the next time we come back.
