Happy Top Hideaway

Tucked deep in the Smoky Mountains yet minutes from some of Western North Carolina's best outdoor adventures, this sunlit cabin is your basecamp for exploring — and your retreat for unwinding. Switch on the gas fireplace and settle into the living room, with its vaulted ceiling, well-equipped full kitchen, dining table for four, and comfortable living space with a TV provided through Dish Network. Step through the sliding glass doors onto the expansive wraparound deck with a gas grill and outdoor table for al fresco dining after a day on the water or the trail. Right outside, you'll find a firepit for evening stories and a swing set for the kids. Reliable unlimited internet is available for streaming, browsing, and video conferencing. This property is managed by VueStay Vacations.

This cabin sits in a secluded, private spot completely surrounded by nature, bordered by National Forest land, but you're never far from the action. Whitewater rafting and kayaking await three miles away at the Nantahala Outdoor Center, and Fontana Lake public access is just a mile out for fishing, boating, or a lazy afternoon on the water. Trout fishing spots dot the surrounding rivers and streams for anglers of all levels. Mountain bikers will love the proximity to the Tsali Recreation Area, home to some of the Southeast's best singletrack. When you're ready to slow down, downtown Bryson City offers local shops, museums, and historical sites, all just a short drive from your private mountain hideaway.
