Very Secluded Home overlooking a Wilson Creek, a Wild and Scenic River.

If you are looking for the hidden cabin in the woods you have found it. On 10 acres surrounded by National Forest and Wildlife Property. Close to many hiking trails with many beautiful waterfalls and gorgeous mountain views. Extremely private. Great trout fishing right outside the front door.

Great Relaxing Getaway
This property was just what we were looking for to relax a couple of days. The deck was great and had a great view of the creek. It is secluded, but there is a road that is across the creek and up a hill that you will occasionally see cars drive by. This did not bother us. The Kitchen had all we needed. Plenty of hot water and the heat worked well. SUV would be required for the main road leading to the cabin if weather is bad. We loved it.

Came back for our fourth stay. The weather was great all but one of our days. The heavy rain made for some great tubing the next day so it wasn’t too bad. We can’t wait to come back.

Can’t wait to return!
The cabin is spacious and provides accoutrements for a comfortable stay. The property is majestic as you are surrounded by nature, with grounds to roam and a beautiful creek playing recurrent flowing water sounds. Whether you want to submerge in outdoor adventure, or sit on the porch overlooking the creek, you’re guaranteed to soak in the surroundings. We regularly saw wild turkeys, herons and butterflies. One morning from the porch, I watched a bald eagle fly up the creek. The fireflies closed out each evening with an enchanting light show. Can’t wait to return.

We were back for our third trip to the cabin. As usual we had a blast. We can always find something to do whether it’s hiking, fishing or just sitting by the fire. We are looking forward to our next trip.

Delightful!
Exactly as advertised!! Beautiful, peaceful location. We enjoyed the serenity and enjoyed speding time together, but also being able to go off alone and walk (great walking trails nearby!), read, or just meditate and enjoy nature. You do want to talk your own food, as it is quite a distance to any restaurants. But plenty of utensils and cookware.

Beautiful park setting
The house was in a nice private setting. Fishing was pretty good. We caught two trout that made a delicious dinner, several small bass and pan fish. The water was very low when we went and unfortunately it made tubing VERY difficult but the kids kept trying. The house was fully stocked! We drove in from Ohio and cooked all our meals with no difficulties. We used the outside grill daily, so thankful they had one. We did not see much wildlife, some bear prints in the sand along with otter prints. We did see some deer. The location is perfect if you plan to get out and do some hiking. Drive time is very minimal to most locations. Make sure to bring your maps and information before you arrive. No internet at all, we could not text or make calls. We planned to stop at visitor center tomorrow get a park map but they have been out for over a year due to Covid. Thankfully the cabin had a map and a trail guide!! The only thing I would recommend is a radio. We had one evening of really bad storms, had no idea they were coming. The River kept the kids and us entertained the entire day. We only had one day were a large group of mean came up the River with nets. They stayed right outside the cabin area netting fish for a bit. Other than that it was totally private. It was a great vacation and would recommend.

Great Place Away from it all.
We really enjoyed our stay on the creek. The house was so clean and nice inside it was really a welcoming experience. the owners are doing a great job improving the house inside and out. While it isn't a brand new house they keep it crystal clean inside which was a huge plus for us. The property was exactly as we expected. It is 10 miles up a gravel road thru the Pisgah park. If you like remote, away from everything, this is a great place. It is right on the creek and the privacy was really great. There is little to no cell service in the Pisgah Park in general. At the house we were able to get 1 or 2 bars at times (enough to text as needed) but that add's to the experience. Its nice to get away and not have those distractions. The creek is beautiful, we brought inner tubes and floated the creek many times from the bridge to the property was about a 20 minute float. Make sure you bring all the food, and supplies you need as there are no store close (aside from Betsy's which is about a mile from the house, where you can get a soda, fishing supplies and a snack (candy, ice cream). If this sounds like the experience your looking for then we highly recommend. The owners were extremely nice and really want to make this a great experience. We will be back again for sure.

Porch sittin ‘
Perfect place for grandparents to sit and rock on the porch, listen to the water rush over the rocks. Perfect place for teenagers to go out into the water and explore. Perfect place to drop kids off up river, come back to the cabin, wait 45 minutes and they will be at the house.
