❤ Cozy Log Cabin w/Stunning View! Waterfall, 3 Fireplaces, Arcade, Stocked!

Whether you are looking for a relaxing escape or a cozy base camp for adventure, this lovingly maintained and cared for log cabin has it all. Enjoy hot coffee on your private balcony attached to the Master suite or enjoy a crackling fire with a nightcap in front of one of your three wood burning fireplaces. Take a hike down the Troll Trail or stride down Fairy Lane to your own outdoor stage area with a large fire pit. Ready for adventure? Pack a water bottle and grab your hiking stick, then follow the nature trail to your own hidden eighteen-foot-tall waterfall and spacious natural swimming area!

Privacy at its finest! Being on 4.5 acres, and adjacent to National Forest Service Land in the heart of the Smoky Mountain wilderness, you'll find yourself surrounded by trees, hummingbirds, and crisp mountain air. The retreat is newly updated and furnished with 3 bedrooms and 2 ½ baths, plus a sleeper sofa in the living room. Each sleeping area comes with a Dohm Sound Conditioner, high thread-count sheets, and the most luxurious mattresses available. Enjoy dinner while listening to the intoxicating sounds of nature on your spacious verandah with teak dining table. A fully enclosed porch surrounded by windows is ideal for keeping cozy on snowy winter nights. The living area welcomes you to relax and read a book, complete a puzzle or unwind with a movie.

Everyone will enjoy the over 4,500 games on the brand-new full size 4 player arcade (multicade). So many games to choose from, including Pac-Man, Frogger, Tetris, Super Mario Brothers, Contra, Joust, Burger Time, Donkey Kong and hundreds of other classics.

Continue your adventures nearby, where you will find gem mining, highly rated hiking trails, waterfalls and 5-Star dining on Highlands Plateau, which is an 11-mile drive (20 minutes or longer for people unaccustomed to these winding roads) on North Carolina’s Beautiful Scenic Waterfall Byway, named for the 200 waterfalls surrounding the route.

Great Family Escape
Loved our time in the cabin. The property was clean and as advertised. Paved road all the way to the driveway (which was unpaved, but easy). Hike to the on-property waterfall is a nice bonus. Our family had a wonderful Thanksgiving stay!

Breath👏taking👏
I can’t even describe how amazing this cabin is. It is in a perfect, secluded location making our stay even more relaxing. There was not a dull moment for the kids. They lived the adventures to the waterfalls and hikes around the property. They couldn’t resist a swim in the freezing, November waters of the swimming hole. The cabin was cozy and clean. Supplied with everything we needed. We will definitely be back soon!

Great weekend getaway
We enjoyed our stay with friends at the Cozy Cottage. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies. We even hiked to the Hidden Falls - be sure to wear good hiking shoes and take hiking sticks because there were several steep spots. Nice to have firewood available for cozy fires in the kitchen or den. The guys loved the retro video game. We would recommend this to others. The manager for the property was quick to respond to our questions in a timely manner.

Beautiful Location with One Fatal Flaw
Property was beautiful, property management/owner was great about check in. Materials were available to review upon entering the residence. I enjoyed the arcade machine with games from my childhood and both my wife and I thought the view from the back porch was breathtaking. Property location is close to our destination (Franklin, NC) and we were not far from the shopping in Highlands. We've got a lifted Jeep with high output lighting, so ingress and egress was not a problem. Now for the not so wonderful - on the second day we began to notice a significant influx of flies from the southernmost corner on the main floor and in both the hallway/master bedroom on the top floor. Swatting flies and eventually adding Zevo products to kill them became such a nuisance that my wife and I left a day and half early. Doesn't look like photos are allowed or I'd share the partially filled zip-lock bag that we scooped 3 hours worth into on the day when we decided to leave. Not sure what happened to cause this but may be a known issue as fly swatters were already present on the property. We could have handled a few, but this was excessive and not in places where we would have expected (i.e. kitchen). If this can or has been fixed, this cabin would be a lovely place to stay.

Perfect Mountain Cabin!
We had an amazing vacation in this beautiful cabin! It was perfect for our (3) and (5) year old who loved all the special touches catered towards kids like the outdoor performing area, big tree house, and the play room. There’s something for everyone here! We spent many hours enjoying time together by the fire and relaxing on the beautiful porch! We took the kids on the hike down to the private waterfall and we all enjoyed it What a spectacular property! The cabin was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We can’t wait to go back!

our stay was very relaxing, the views from the deck were spectacular! The adults could kick-back while the children were entertaining themselves in the game room. other activities were just a short drive away: hiking, gem mining, tubing, and admiring the many waterfalls! The cabin was clean, spacious, and comfortable.

Great place to stay!
We really enjoyed staying at the cabin. We hiked down to the private waterfall almost every day we were there. It was great having a private waterfall and swimming area.... make sure to take a walking stick to help along the trail... you will need it. Cabin and property were beautiful. I loved the fact they had sound machines in everyroom. The Arcade was pretty fun to play as well. Overall great place to stay!

Weeklong family getaway
The cabin is lovely and situated so that you feel the mountain views are all your own. Very comfy beds. Lots of games, puzzles, and plenty of other entertainment with the arcade game and all the options on TV. The chess game that is pictured in the listing is no longer present, however. I only mention it because my husband and son had planned to put it to good use, as they love to play. Very short drive to Franklin, and there are lots of beautiful hiking trails and waterfalls in the area. Highlands is nearby, but that winding drive is nerve-wracking for someone used to flat land, and we didn’t find much to do there to our taste. The waterfall on the property, sadly we never got to see. We tried, but it was much too steep. I’m impressed with how many reviewers say they made it. We were very happy with our stay and would be willing to return.

Peaceful getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The waterfalls on the property were beautiful, careful getting to them. The path to them is not easy to hike down, so if you have mobility issues you may have to skip the hike. There are other paths on the property to walk/hike along. The cabin is secluded, you can see other cabins, but they are not close. The cabin was very roomy and comfortable. There is a Keurig and coffee pot if you need your caffeine. Plenty of pots and pans if you want to cook. The view from the master bedroom is fantastic. The mattress in that bedroom is firm. The arcade game is fun to play, many, many games. Found old games that brought back many memories from the past. There is a shelf full of puzzles and board games. We had a few family game nights. We didn't use the TV's so we can't speak to the available channels/shows. Internet was good, we were able to work remotely when needed. The heating system was tricky to first use, but we figured it out. Before our stay, the owner answered my questions quickly. We had a peaceful and comfortable stay. If we are ever in the area in the future - we would definitely stay here again.

WONDERFUL, QUIET STAY
We had a wonderful time during our 2 1/2 week stay. Property is very beautiful and made even more so with the waterfall hike on the property. Hike is very steep going down and back up but manageable if you're in even somewhat decent shape. Hiking sticks are definitely recommended but the hike is well worth it. We also enjoyed the location as it is almost half way in between Franklin and Highlands. This allowed us the best of both worlds given the different aspects of the two towns. The owners were very quick to respond. We did not need much contact since we are very familiar with the area after owning a home in the NC mountains for 21 years. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us. It allowed us full relaxation and the ability to focus on enjoying the area.
