Book a hotel near Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, Robbinsville

"We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this historic log cabin. It is so cozy and inviting…a perfect place to refresh and relax. It was too cold to be outside for long but sitting on the dock all bundled up was so peaceful. My family loved our time there and we would definitely stay again."

"You will not want to leave this amazing cottage on the lake. The views were truly amazing! The memory foam mattress was very comfy and the kitchen was fully stocked. The cottage is close to many hiking trails and a grocery store is just five minutes away. Great communication with the host! Thanks for an enjoyable stay!"

"After surviving hurricane Ian, this was the perfect get away while our home was being worked on. The melody of the stream can be heard throughout the entire home."

"This was by far the best vacation spot to unwind from life’s stressors. Peaceful neighborhood, nice neighbors and the fall colors and views were absolutely stunning. Home owners were very attentive to our needs and respected our privacy. Not too far from town just far enough to enjoy. Farmers market, Wehrloom Honey, Hunting Boy wood carver and Tail of the Dragon! All close and enjoyable!"

"fantastic, clean house in a perfect location for any motorcycle or car enthusiast. just minutes away from Tail of the Dragon, Cherohala Skyway, Moonshiner 28 and Foothills Parkway. The driveway is smoothly paved with plenty of room to park your bikes, trailers and trucks."

"Having never stayed on a mountain, I wasn't sure what to expect. This property sits at the top of Thunderbird Mountain. The road on Thunderbird Mountain is a narrow 1 way road with no guard rails and no reflectors. We were able to navigate it with no issues in our Jeep Gladiator in good weather, even though some of the turns were tight. My son affectionately called Thunderbird Mountain ... "Sketch Mountain". Flat land on a mountain top is scarce. Most houses are built on stilts in the air on the side of the mountain with no yard. We had to walk our dogs each night as the only flat area was the gravel driveway. The view from the property was AMAZING!!! It's a million dollar view. I now understand why the Smokey Mountains are called "smokey". Each night we watched the clouds dust the mountain tops. I also understand why the Blue Ridge Mountains are called "blue". The ridges of the farthest mountain peaks turned blue each night as the sun descended. Wow. Just wow. Most of our adventures took us an hour or two away from the property. We drove the curvaceous Cherohala Skyway from Robbinsville, NC to Tellico Plains, TN. We took a detour off the Cherohala Skyway to a gravel road at Stratton Gap retracing the route of an early settler named Absalom Strutton. The trek on this amazing gravel road in the valley was a hidden gem and a fantastic jeep adventure. We ventured to Bryson City to ride the Great Smokey Mountain Railway over the Nantahala Gorge. My son enjoyed the train ride most of all. Lastly, we drove to Dry Waterfalls and Bridal Veil Falls. Both were stunning. Honestly, Highway 28 to the waterfalls may have MORE curves than the Cherohala Skyway! This property was a lovely house on top of a mountain and a great base camp for our family to explore the area."
