About this property

Beautiful Log Cabin on 20 private acres-Wifi -Hot Tub-Awesome Views

Soak up the awesome long range views from over 500 sq. ft of decking or watch magnificent sunsets from the outdoor hot tub at this three-level log cabin on 20 beautiful secluded acres in Black Forest.

Includes fully-furnished kitchen, BBQ grill, outdoor dining furniture on the deck, and picnic table near the firepit so you can dine overlooking the National Park.

Three bedrooms feature:
Bottom floor with TV, DVD player, and doors to outside should someone want to stay out late;
Main floor bedroom has patio door leading to hot tub deck, and convenient to kitchen for a midnight snack;
Upstairs bedroom includes a loft providing extra sitting room for reading or enjoying the view.
Each floor has its own bathroom adjacent to the bedrooms.

Get cozy by the stone fireplace in winter, stroll among blooming dogwoods in spring, immerse yourself in outdoor activities in summer, or be spellbound by stunningly colorful leaves in fall. Black Forest Retreat is a vacation you will never forget.

Remember we are in the heart of the mountains with narrow, winding, steep roads around. Not recommended for motorcycles.

Wonderful Thanksgiving Getaway

We were pleasantly surprised when arriving at the cabin- the pictures did not do it justice! The owners were so friendly and responsive to our messages leading up to our stay. The cabin was beautiful, clean, and had a well stocked kitchen for preparing meals. The views were gorgeous. We hope to be back! I do suggest an SUV or Truck for accessing the cabin.

What a view!!!

Location can't be beat. Within 10 minute drive to Bryson City, which is a charming little town. Million dollar views. The drive up the mountain should not be an issue, even without a 4WD vehicle. No close by neighbors, so very private property. The cabin is very well taken care of, nicely decorated, clean, well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. Convenient location to several great hiking and bicycling trails. Highly recommended: 5 stars all around.

First trip to the mountains

Our family had a great time in this adorable cabin! The pictures don’t do it justice! We had 3 children with us and everyone had a great time! They had everything we needed! We did the deep creek falls and trails which were beautiful and convenient to get to. Thanks for a great stay!

Majestic Mountain Views

Wow…The location & views are amazing, no doubt, and we had an excellent time during our stay. However, the drive up is pretty scary(to those of us who are not used to the mountains) & I would stress that someone be an experienced driver & have vehicles that can handle the terrain of the unpaved roads. I would suggest this be stressed within the listing itself as well, so that people like us, coming all the way from (very flat) Florida are prepared for the harrowing journey up the mountain! Also, please make sure to read the instructions on how to find the place after you book, that is a little tricky as well. Communication was excellent & over all, I would highly recommend this place if you’re looking for spectacular Mountain View’s & serene surroundings! Once you figure it all out, it’s very worth it, despite the initial stress. Thank you for the opportunity to experience an unforgettable vacation!

Perfect cabin

The pictures do not do this place justice. The cabin is so well built, maintained and furnished. It’s just far enough away to feel secluded but very convenient to all there is to do in and around Bryson City. We loved it!

Amazing Mountain Top View

Once you find the property & familiarize with the area you will enjoy it. Do not try to locate in the dark. We were trying to find in the day light & GPS tried to take us up the backside. It was not fun. We thoroughly enjoyed the property & would rent again.

Mountain Cabin

The Black Forest Mountain Cabin was amazing! The treacherous drive up was well worth it. The cabin was beautiful and had all necessary amenities-dishes, pans, towels, washer and dryer, blow dryers…even baby safety gates and spoons. Everything was clean and ready for us so we felt right at home. The 3-level cabin provided room for all of us to gather in the main room and out on the wrap-around deck and at the fire pit and picnic area, but there was private space, too, with bedrooms and bathrooms on each level. We enjoyed relaxing and talking together, cooking and eating, playing games, sitting in the hot tub and watching the constant hummingbirds visiting the feeders on the deck. The views and sunsets were spectacular! The cabin was close enough for many fun day trip adventures, too - Bryson City, Cherokee, Asheville, Mount Mitchell, Franklin, and the Great Smoky National Park. It was lovely to have the beautiful Black Forest Mountain Cabin as our haven each night!

About the host

Hosted by Lasseters

Host profile image
Terry and Elizabeth Lasseter have been enjoying the Smoky mountains for nearly 40 years so felt it only natural to build their own cabin. Terry is a retired mailman and Elizabeth is a retired math teacher. They have been avid kayakers, hikers, and nature lovers who fell in love with mountain life. They hope you love the cabin as much as they do!!

Why they chose this property

After tent camping in the mountains for years, we finally started renting cabins. We then decided to build our own so we could own a piece of heaven! We looked for two years to find just the right spot. It has privacy and serenity, yet is convenient to town and all the mountain activities we love. We could not find just the right floor plans, so drew our own to build the perfect place to make forever memories.

What makes this property unique

It is secluded and private, yet convenient to get to all the places we enjoy, and the drive into town is absolutely beautiful. Although there are very few neighbors, the ones we have are friendly and treat us like family.
We especially enjoy the serenity of hiking around the mountain, picking blackberries or viewing wildlife. After a long day of kayaking or hiking some trails, we can relax in the hot tub to take in the view or sit in the rocking chairs on the porch or gaze out the window from the living room or bedroom. No matter which we choose, it is like heaven on earth!
