A Smokey Mountain Chalet on two hundred acres of private property with a million dollar view from 3,500 feet above sea level. Overlooking clouds, pastures, streams, waterfalls, ponds and forest; wake up to crisp clean mountain air filled with the sounds of nature. At night, gaze at a sky full of stars that city dwellers never see. Mother Nature at her finest awaits you here. Adjacent to Nantahala National Forest the property has over 4 miles of it's own trails for hikes, mountain bikes, horses or ATVs. Also, we have 4 spring fed streams originating on our mountain where many guests have found rubies, garnets and other gems.
The Chalet includes: a loft with a king size bed and private 1/2 bathroom upstairs; one bedroom with two twin beds downstairs next to a full bathroom; a fully equipped kitchen; a great front deck/porch; a picnic area next to a beautiful stream; outdoor fire pit; a big screen television with DVD player (bring your own movies or choose from our collection.)
Our Chalet is an excellent place to disconnect from hectic pace of our digital world and enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. Please note there is no cell phone service, cable TV or internet/WIFI due to our location in the Smokey Mountains.
