About this property

Unique Mountain Cabin on Coker Creek - Hot Tub, HDTV, AC, WiFi

The Nugget on Coker unique cabin is located on a lovely creek in a small valley with a few other cabins. The location is very quiet and peaceful. The sounds of the creek, the breeze in the trees and birdsong are the greatest noise. Every detail in the newly refurbished cabin has been addressed to give you a comfortable, memorable visit. Local artisans designed and built the fireplace, gazebo and wrought iron stair railing. The new kitchen features a gas cooktop, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator with icemaker.
The first floor has an open floor plan with kitchen, living room and dining in one section. The game room and downstairs bath are in a second area.

The Nugget is not a pet friendly property.

Coker Creek is in the Cherokee National Forest with of many opportunities for outdoor activities -- hiking, biking, whitewater rafting, fly fishing -- and yet is within driving distance of the Great Smoky mountains and Pigeon Forge shopping and entertainment as well as scenic rides by car and rail.

Near Championship Golf Courses: Tellico Villlage has three championship golf courses. For a limited time, the village is inviting non-residents to play its private championship courses. The Links at Kahite is a true 'links' course that meanders through a beautiful natuaral setting and offers spectical panoramic view of the Great Smoky Mountains. The Tanasi course has six sets of tees that play from 6,731 to 5,044 yards. The course borders Tellico lake and offers a diversity of appeal from the challenging water holes to the strategic par fives. The Tanasi Clubhouse includes an excellent restaurant that offers casual dining in a beautiful setting. The Toqua course features a classic design that is considered one of the best golf tracks in Tennessee. The course was built into an exquisite natural setting with several holes playing alongside Tellico Lake. Toqua is as challenging as it is beautiful and holes seven through nine may be the most demanding three consecutive holes in the state.

Ocoee River - Olympic White Water Course: In 1996 the Ocoee river was the site of the World's first Olympic whitewater event on a natural river. The river is in a beautiful rocky gorge with Class III & IV rapids. Kayakers are seen on the river year round and rafting outfitters offer trips June-September. The White water center has a one-mile hiking trail which crosses a 330 foot suspension bridge and circles the center. The trail is entirely accessible for those who are physically challenged. There are an additional 20 miles of trails for hikers and mountain bikers, including the Bear Paw Trail and the Chestnut Mountain Trail, both of which are loops. A recent addition, the Thunder Rock Express, has received a lot of positive comments from bikers.The Old Copper Road Historic Trail allows hikers and bikers an easier paced adventure along the restored path that was used to transport copper by wagon from Ducktown to Cleveland before the arrival of the railroad from Blue Ridge.

Fly Fishing - Tellico River and Citico Creek: The Tellico River and surrounding area make up one of Tennessee's classic trout-fishing destinations. The Tellico is best known for heavy stockings and big-fish potential on the main river and on Citico Creek. The Tellico is a big river, offering plenty of room for plenty of fishermen, and the heavily stocked section is more than 13 miles long. Tthe forks of Citico Creek and the Bald River, a major tributary of the Tellico, form the centerpieces of the Citico and Bald River wilderness areas. These streams offer wild trout in unspoiled wilderness settings and, more often than not, no company from other anglers. Guides and outfitters are available and the Cherohala Welcome center provides maps and a wealth of information.

Average

Cleaning supplies were minimal or nonexistent Basic stocking of needs were minimal as well. Towels and mattresses could be updated. Quaint, quiet and cozy. It could just do with a little more effort on the owner’s part.

Winter vacation

Me and my family saw this cabin and wanted to take a trip so my daughter could see snow. Unfortunately there was none until we left but we went to Cherokee national forest where we did see it. Overall the stay was amazing just some minor issues with the tub not working upstairs, and the fireplace. I would stay again at the nugget! Susan and Amanda were great at responding

Family vacation

Very beautiful property, very peaceful and quiet, had everything we needed every appliance and equipment that was needed to make meals with. The stream running in the back yard was so peaceful and relaxing to enjoy coffee on in the mornings and just connect with nature and had limited cell phone service and was perfect for disconnecting from the real world. Plan on staying here again in the future!

Beautiful home, but had bed bugs

The cabin is beautiful inside and out and the creek is relaxing. But the last night of our stay we woke up to bed bug bites. The property manager replied quickly the next morning but I have not heard from the owner at all. There was been no attempt to make this situation right. I do have pictures.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Paulus

Host profile image
I am a retired electrical engineer. I grew up in East Tennessee and love the scenery and mountains of the area.

Why they chose this property

After retirement, I decided renovating a mountain cabin would be a great project! For me John Muir's quote 'The mountains are calling and I must go' is a perfect fit.

What makes this property unique

The creek is the focal point of this property and the reason I love it.
