Secluded creekside home in the heart of the Nantahala Forest

Nestled along one of North Carolina’s premier trout fishing streams, Big Snowbird Camp is surrounded by the pristine beauty of Nantahala National Forest. A paved road leads all the way to the property, ensuring easy access for any vehicle. With no neighbors in sight, the soothing sounds of the rushing water provide unmatched peace and serenity. Perfect swimming holes await just steps from the property, ideal for a refreshing dip. At the end of the road, the Snowbird Trailhead begins, offering a 25-mile loop that leads to some breathtaking waterfalls. Just beyond the house, the pavement transitions to a gravel forestry road, following the creek—making Big Snowbird Camp an excellent spot for biking adventures. Less than 10 miles to town. We allow early check-in’s if we are able.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, a kitchen island, and a dining table.

The cabin was lovely and the location on the creek was perfect. Hearing the water was so relaxing. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed during our stay. The owner was very easy to communicate with. I would recommend the cabin- it was terrific.

This was a fantastic house and location. We have been to NC many times and this was by far our all time favorite house. The creek it is on is just gorgeous and the kids had a blast playing in it and climbing all over the rocks. The house was immaculate, beautifully decorated and full of upgraded wonderful features. The beds were comfortable and the house had everything we needed. It felt like we were borrowing a good friend's house rather than staying at a rental. We absolutely plan to come back and rent this one again.

Peaceful vacation

We had a wonderful time. The back porch is very relaxing. We spent most of our time enjoying the creek and renting a boat on the lake. The beds are comfy. The house is set up great for families with plenty of room for everyone.
