Awesome Views at High Elevations - 1 bedroom with King bed, 3 bath cabin

Built in 2019
2-level, 2,000 sq. ft. Cabin

“1 bedroom with King Bed, 3 bathrooms, and Panoramic Long Range Mountain Views”

Cleaning Staff trained with a focus to disinfect the entire Lodge between each guest.

1 Bdrm / 3 Bath / 2 Gas Fireplaces/ Two HDTV's / Hot Tub

Enjoy the beauty of the Smoky Mountains from this 2019 constructed one bedroom, 3-bathroom open concept log cabin. With 2 gas fireplaces, wrap around porch, and panoramic long range mountain views, you can revel in the great outdoors without stepping outside. There are no steps to climb for easy access and unloading! You’ll be just 25 minutes from Bryson City, so you can enjoy both peace and quiet and proximity to the attractions of town.

The log cabin is at 4,000 feet elevation in a private gated community. You will appreciate the casual charm of the cabin’s large interior with tongue-in-groove walls and ceiling with beams and engineered hardwood flooring throughout except the three bathrooms which are tiled.

Upstairs there are two flat screen HDTV's with YouTube TV. The living room is a 65" Smart TV with access to Netflix, Apple TV, Prime Video and YouTube. Limited cell coverage on the drive-up the mountain but we have WIFI and our Verizon cell phones normally work well at the cabin. There is a WIFI landline and phone in cabin for emergency service.

Downstairs there is another flat screen HDTV, 14-foot shuffleboard table, dart board, wall hanging connect four and many games and puzzles with a game table. Also, a coffee/wine bar and another full bathroom with custom walk-in tile shower and granite countertop. There are also 2 bedrooms that will be locked.

Custom kitchen with granite counter tops. Stainless steel appliances, gas stove/oven, microwave, and dishwasher. The kitchen has everything you will need to cook (pots, pans, Crockpot, waffle maker, utensils, plates, bowls, silverware, etc.) meals during your stay.

The master bedroom features a king-sized log frame and new mattress, matching log chest, and two log end tables with lamps. Off of the master bedroom is a full bathroom with a large tiled shower that is open to the beamed ceiling. The master bathroom also has dual vanities.

The second bathroom upstairs has a tub and shower. Large single vanity and laundry room with new washer and dryer. Plenty of storage for the utmost convenience.

A new Hot Tub and Porch Swing for two below the deck for privacy where you can enjoy the long-range mountain views. The stars are unbelievably gorgeous on a clear night. Beside the hot tub is a picnic table for casual dining and relaxing.

There is a fire-pit to enjoy the cool mountain nights roasting marshmallows or hot dogs.

This dazzling, custom built cabin is beautiful, peaceful and ideal for special occasions such as honeymoons, anniversaries, and birthdays. The cabin caters to a single couple for a relaxing romantic getaway.

This cabin offers the perfect balance; peace, quiet, comfort, and views that will take your breath away. If you want to enjoy the great outdoors and a log cabin with open beams and wood ceilings this cabin is for you. Relax outside with the fresh mountain air or just enjoy the quiet serenity and comfort with high-end furniture, a stone fireplace with a vent-less gas fireplace (turned off May through September), large kitchen and dining area. You can enjoy the breathtaking mountain views from the kitchen, dining room, and living room.

Elk Ridge Summit is located in the prestigious gated community - Alarka Highlands about 25 minutes from Bryson City. For entertaining there is a community Pavilion with a large stone fireplace. Several hiking trails to enjoy the beauty of the mountains. The drive is steep. A 4WD vehicle is recommended for winter or bad weather travel. No refunds for bad weather, however, we will credit you for a future stay if possible. The address cannot be found on GPS. The driving app WAZE, will direct you to our road within the community.

Bryson City, Nantahala Outdoor Center, Fontana Lake, Harrah's Casino, Cherokee, Nantahala River Gorge (white water rafting), Tsali Biking, Fontana Lake, and an entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway/Smoky Mountains are all a quick scenic drive away. The Bryson City area is home to wonderful restaurants, breweries, the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, hiking, zip-lining, trout fishing, and canoeing. Maggie Valley is close for snow skiing. Many local small towns offer shopping and dining as well.

-- THE LOCATION --

Situated in the middle of the Great Smoky Mountains, this cabin is the perfect place to get away from it all while still being close to the conveniences of town. The cabin itself sits at the top of a mountain, providing guests plenty of privacy and unobstructed panoramic views.

A short drive will take you to restaurants, shopping, museums, and historic attractions of Bryson City. Take the night off from cooking and check out the local fare in Bryson City. Enjoy a comforting meal at the historic Fryemont Inn (ask for Sarge at the bar) or Everett Street Diner, go for a margarita and Mexican favorites at Guayabitos Restaurant, or get a taste of the local craft beer at Mountain Layers Brewery, one of our favorite stops.

There’s no shortage of activities in the Great Smoky Mountains. Make the quick trip up to Deep Creek to hike up to a waterfall or set up shop by a fishing stream, while mountain bikers take advantage of the nearby trails. Also enjoy many hiking trails in the area, rafting, trout fishing, tubing, zip lines, Clingman’s Dome and other attractions. The Casino and Golf Course in Cherokee is only 50 minutes from the cabin. Only 1 hour to Asheville and nice drive to Gatlinburg.

Amazing Cabin getaway
The cabin was in prestine condition and had absolutely everything we needed. It offers a variety of games that we really enjoyed learning to play. We loved playing shuffle board, relaxing in the hot tub, and toasting marshmallows by the fire. The views are even more spectacular in person. The owners were very detailed in how to get up the mountain and what to do at the cabin. My husband and I had an amazing time and were already talking about coming back before we even left!

Our favorite cabin - perfection
This is our 4th time staying at this cabin. Amy and David go out of their way to ensure everything is perfect. My husband and I love everything about it. The view, the peace, the tranquility, the games, hot tub, fireplaces, and how exceptionally clean the cabin is. It’s seriously the only cabin we will stay in now. We love it so much we are going to book a summer stay as well.

Sweet isolation. Great place to recharge!
The cabin is beautiful! Everything was exactly as described in the listing, well stocked with good stuff. It was very clean, and comfortable. We were looking to get away from the hustle and busle and this was perfect. The cabin is remote, about 25-30 mins at least from Bryson City, NC which is a cool little town. The road is steep, narrow, and windy, but totally worth the drive. The owners do a great job explaining the directions and navigation of the roads!The cabin does have great internet, so take your food and plan on relaxing. Communication with the owners was great, and they are very responsive. Plan on returning next year, highly recommended!

A Merry Christmas Getaway
We came up just before Christmas to get some much needed R&R before the holiday chaos began. The cabin was perfect for the two of us with plenty of things to keep us busy. We loved the hot tub, especially star gazing, and even was enjoyable as it snowed! Darts and shuffle board, cable TV and gas fire was nice when we were drained from being out in the town visiting breweries and the casino. It was well stocked and very comfortable. The drive was a hike but the views make it worth it. We would love to come back and visit when it’s warmer as well!

About the host

Hosted by David & Amy Colclough

Host profile image
We currently live on the east coast of Florida, but spend several weeks each summer hiking the Appalachian Trail. We both love North Carolina, especially Bryson City and the Great Smoky Mountains. We bought Elk Ridge Summit as our second home and decided to share it with others when we are not there. The views are magnificent and the cabin is spacious yet very cozy. We have loved it so much that we built another cabin on the mountain.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Elk Ridge Summit immediately! When you drive up the hill into our driveway you will see why. That view is just magnificent!

What makes this property unique

If you enjoy relaxing on a deck and gazing at multiple mountain layers, especially at sunrise with a cup of coffee or a glass of your favorite wine at sunset, Elk Ridge Summit will not disappoint. Once the sun sets, the stars illuminate so bright, time will stand still, not to mention all the fun you will have counting the satellites flying over head.
