Your mountain escape begins at this Waynesville cabin, nestled in the Cataloochee Hills 35 miles from Asheville. Mountain Gem is a two-story log home with cathedral ceilings and windows, a loft, a hot tub, and incredible views.
Step onto the wrap-around deck, with a 20-mile Smoky Mountain vista. Fire up the charcoal grill for barbecues, or gather around the fire pit for a marshmallow roast. A hot tub invites you to soak away your worries while gazing at the stars.
Indoors, the open-concept great room offers a warm and inviting space, and the fully equipped kitchen invites you to prepare meals for your group. In the loft, foosball tournaments await.
You'll find both a king and a queen bedroom on the main floor, a queen room upstairs, and a twin daybed with a trundle pull-out in the open loft.
Immerse yourself in nature while still enjoying access to the best of the surrounding area and attractions.

With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!
