BEST porch view of the Smokies! AMAZING creekside fire pit, Master suite!

Come relax and unwind and take in the gorgeous view of the Blue Ridge Mountains from your porch swing at the beautiful Mountain View Retreat! This cozy hilltop mountain home allows you to sip coffee while taking in the sights and sounds of the Smokies! You are minutes away from the well renowned pristine Nantahala River where you can raft, fly fish, or just take in the view. Two adorable small mountain towns are a short drive away with restaurants, festivals, breweries, wineries and dining options for all palates. If you feel like exploring the Smokies by train the Great Smoky Mountain Railway is right down the road. You could also opt to try your luck at Harrah's Casino or learn about Cherokee culture on the Cherokee Reservation. Feel like taking a hike? This is a perfect place for hiking, heading to the nearby lakes, or making s'mores by the fire pit by the stream at your retreat! With 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, there's plenty of room for the family or a romantic getaway! We also treat our guests with farm fresh eggs, local homemade jelly, and a bottle of wine from our local wineries! Enjoy!

Perfect Long Weekend
My furry daughter and I stayed here for 4 nights over Veteran's Weekend. Mea'Ola loved that the front porch had a gate so she could lay out there anytime she wanted to. The view of the Smokies was beautiful. The bed was very comfortable and the sheets were super soft. I got to meet the neighbors and learned the history of the land. My only negatives are there were no lids for the pots and not many utensils for cooking. I am already thinking about when I'll come back.

A wonderful anniversary weekend!
I have always loved the Nantahala area. It is very special to me. This house is 10 miles from NOC Outpost, 10 miles from Andrews and 15 from Murphy. It is a great location! We hiked every day, spent an afternoon at NOC and another afternoon in Andrews. We went for dinner in Murphy, and enjoyed a walk around the square area. The house is great size. The porch is amazing and so peaceful! We did not use the fire pit, but it seemed very nice. The kitchen is nice and fairly well stocked. We loved the ice-maker in the fridge. The master bath has a nice tub for a soak… be sure to bring some bubble bath! The hostess was very kind, she left us some local goodies which was very sweet. I would heartily recommend this house!

Enjoyed the stay
We enjoyed our stay here. There was an issue with the Wi-Fi it that was resolved the second day. After a bit we figured out how to use the heat as there was no instruction on how to do it. Received a free bottle of wine and homemade jam and eggs.

Best morning coffee view!!
Beautiful view to wake up to each day…..nothing like morning coffee watching the “smoke” lift over the mountains. House accommodated 2 couples each having our own space and own bathroom and seating for all for meals and relaxing in front of the tv. Quiet location but close enough to town to easily get groceries to cook and stay home or travel any time we wanted to go for drives or shopping or out for a meal. Jacklyn was always pleasant and very quick to respond to any inquiries we had. Would not hesitate to recommend to others.

Close to Andrews and family. Everything was great!
We had a wonderful stay. Everything was exactly as advertised and the view WAS awesome! The home was clean and all of the linens (and rugs) were super soft. We were a close drive to our family in Andrews and to the N.O.C. We needed to communicate prior to our visit and the owner responded quickly. The home is one level which is great if you need to be closer to children. While this is a pet friendly home, there were no pet odors... thank you for that. We would definitely recommend it and would stay here again.

Amazing View!
I had a really nice time at the MountainView Retreat. It was easy to find and very nice. The view from the front porch was amazing. We like to visit lake Nantahala, and this cabin was very close (about 20 minutes). It is also close to Andrews, Robbinsville and the Nantahala Gorge. We will definitely be back.

Clean, well-maintained, great hosts
We stayed for a 4-day weekend to enjoy the beauty and relaxed pace of the mountains. This house was a comfortable stay for hot summer days with a nice view from the front porch. It was apparent that the hosts care about the property and your stay. The fresh eggs and jam were a nice bonus and made for some nice breakfasts for the two of us. We had a couple of small issues that were addressed immediately by the hosts. The interior was clean, appliances in good repair, extra towels were welcome. The landscapers came to cut the grass while we were there and the smell of the sweet grass was heavenly. The location is easy to find and access even at night. The driveway is curving gravel on a hillside - no issue for any car, but could be tricky for a street motorcycle. There's always room for improvement. The beds were a little soft for us (but the couches were perfect). The porch swing was in the wrong place. We would stay here again and recommend it to friends.

Amazing!
We loved the house. Everything was perfect. Very clean and neat. I think the kids favorite part of the stay was the dogs. Our favorite part was the front porch with the beautiful view. Thank you for opening your rental up to us. We look forward to renting from you again. The stay made it hard for us to leave.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mountain View Retreat. Conveniently located close to the national forest and out of the hustle and bustle. We would definitely come back for another get away.
