The Junction-backwoods tiny home on brook trout stream with mountain ridge view

We're open-Hurricane Helen spared our county!

Are the backwoods calling? Travel on uneven gravel & dirt to arrive at this tiny home and unique setting. 400 sq ft cabin overlooks two boulder filled creeks plus a mountain ridge view! 2 mi from paved road w/shallow potholes & rocks. 5" clearance (not 4WD) needed. NOT suitable for motorcycles. (Charging EV batteries not allowed. Venomous snakes and wild animals live in the woods) Use ONLY our directions and you'll enjoy the adventure getting here!

Logging days of the past used the creeks to harvest timber. Now their roads bring you to this little cabin with lots of white noise. Bring your pole as it's home to wild brook trout or hatchery supported downstream.

Country décor shows logging history in this well-equipped 400 sq ft cabin. Relax on the deck or take a nap in the covered porch. Walk your own private trail that leads to the creek-side deck.

The Nantahala National Forest is our backyard and playground. Bring your outdoor gear for adventure right outside your door. Come "tame the dragon", ride the "Cherohala Skyway" or "hug" a tree at Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest.

"It was hard to leave" is the best compliment we get! We hope to hear from ya!

The cabin is soundproofed and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, a ceiling fan, and a phone.

A Piece of Heaven, Literally

My husband and I stayed here as a getaway for my birthday and we could not have asked for a better location, cabin, and host. We had an amazing amount of privacy, and the creek below provides a beautiful 24/7 sound bath. Alice is an absolute gem of a host, and it’s obvious just how much pride she and Doug take in making sure this cabin remains clean and in beautiful condition. The cabin provides absolutely everything you need (except groceries, of course). We were lucky to have found this place and we would absolutely LOVE to come back and enjoy The Junction again and again. Thank you for making my birthday so special, Alice and Doug!!!!

Perfect getaway for trout fishing

My son and I visited so he could fish the nearby trout streams. The location couldn’t have been more perfect. It was very serene and tranquil, away from everything. The house was super clean and cutely decorated and equipped with all comforts of home. The bed was extremely comfortable and they were plenty of places to sit and relax. We really appreciated all of the small touches and loved the chocolate chip muffins! My son had great success fishing in the stream right outside of the house. We will definitely be back to the area and hope to stay here again.

Will definitely be back again! Wish we could’ve stayed longer :). Also recommend taking a vehicle that made for off roading. If you’re looking for a place with complete disconnect this is the place! The host was great! Went out of her way to help us when we needed it. 10/10 recommend!

Perfect Couple’s Mountain Getaway

Located two miles down an old logging road by a trout stream and adjacent to Nantahala National Forest, this immaculate tiny home is the perfect venue for rest and relaxation, hiking, fishing, or just soaking in the natural beauty of the mountains. It also offers a 5-star home base for exploring the many attractions the area has to offer. Expertly decorated, neat as a pin and well equipped, you can’t go wrong with ‘The Junction.’

PEACEFUL & SECLUDED ADVENTURE

Started this adventure with the final mile of road not being as challenging as I thought it would be. Actually, it only adds to the backwoods atmosphere which was the idea in the first place! Cabin/cottage more than ample size, particularly with the huge deck which offers both covered and open areas for relaxing in sun or shade. And the 4-5’ ceiling height of the carpeted loft area would have been a cool and exciting sleeping-bag experience for me when I was a kid, not to mention the fun-looking stairs to climb in order to get up there! Every conceivable item of convenience has been thought of in order for guests to have an all-around perfect stay. Great view from the deck 30-40’ above the creek, as well as easy access below for fishing and/or wading. Just a great all-around enjoyable experience thanks to Alice and Doug!!

Simply the best

This cabin and property is incredible. If you are looking for seclusion, nature, comfort and adventure, look no further. The owners put so much effort into maintaining this wonderful forested retreat that you will want to return every year! Waking up to the calming sounds of the brook is a real treat, as is cozily watching a thunderstorm from the deck, or curling up near the fire pit on a cool evening.

A Shangri La of the Nantahala

Outstanding in every way. Everything positive other reviewers say about the place is true so I won't repeat them here. Many thoughtful additions/appointments make your stay a couple of shelves above 'OK'. There's no internet but Starlink Mini worked well enough (Best location is right on the deck rail a few feet beyond the steps and orient the antenna towards the north. The app will do the rest.) The drain field immediately to the east of The Junction (with a nice fire pit) makes for a great drone operations site. The only FYI worth the mention is that you need to be aware that the final mile-plus of road is primitive and nowhere near code. You need a SUV or truck (preferably 4WD). The first time you encounter it you likely will be intimidated and wonder if you've followed directions correctly. Just relax, take it slow, keep an eye out for the big rocks that will rip out an oil pan if you don't have the clearance, and hum a few bars from 'Deliverance'. If you've never been here, I highly recommend that you do NOT arrive in the dark. The Junction is well lit and you won't miss it.

A LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN ON EARTH

The Junction was exactly as pictured on VRBO. Cutest little tiny house ever! It had everything we needed and after a day we stopped missing WiFi and Internet. The scenery was breathtaking, listening to the sound of the water running over the rocks on the creeks below was the most beautiful sound when waking up drinking coffee in the coolness of the morning air and to hear the same sound at night took all the stress away. Everything we needed was there, comfy bed and the softest sheets I've ever slept on. I thought the tiny shower would be a challenge but I found that it was very comfortable and even though the water tank was only 20 gallons, we easily took showers without running out of hot water..I've got longer hair so I was worried about the water pressure getting all the soap out, but the pressure was almost better than I have in my own home. The loft above was pretty cool and loaded with games and puzzles, so we took advantage of that a few times. Communication with Alice was easy and quick, plenty of instructions and brochures on the kitchen table to help us navigate our first trip to NC...It was nice to know that our hosts were not far away if we had a problem, but not ONE single problem in the 4-5 days we were there. The gravel road took a minute to get used to but it was quite quaint and charming. I can't think of one single bad thing about our trip! Thank you Alice for allowing us to spend a few days in a beautiful place! I would highly recommend this!

Host left lots of information on things to do in the area as well as maps. We used this information to plan a visit to the Joyce Kilmer memorial forest and absolutely loved it! We highly recommend this property for anyone looking to get away from it all.

Off the grid and perfect

The Junction is off the beaten path but definitely worth the trip. No cell service, no wi-fi - the perfect place to disappear for a while. The photos of the view of the river from the deck do not do it justice. Truly beautiful. And the hosts are wonderful. Highly recommend.
