About this property

Private HOT TUB. Fire Pit, screened porch. 3 miles to the NOC. Resort POOL

Wanderlust Cabin is located in Nantahala Village Resort. The resort is a small resort with a lodge that has a few rooms and about 20 cabins. Kallisto's resturant is on the permises and opens in late March and there is also a little outdoor bar, Tommy's Paradise, across the street from the resort that frequently has a live band and outside seating. The cabin is an entire, stand alone cabin with a yard. Not a duplex. The cabin is convenient to everything but just far enough off the road to relax. You can sit & relax in the recessed hot tub that is located on the screened in front porch of the cabin with privacy blinds or sit in the front porch rocking chairs and rock your cares away. If you time it right, you can hear the train whistle as the train travels across the Gorge. If there is a chill in the air or just because when your in the Mts, you also need a campfire, you can build a fire in the fire pit and if you want to cook, you have a charcoal grill outside and a full kitchen inside. There are also plenty of resort amenties to enjoy such as one of the walking trails, take a dip in the pool (Mid May-Sept), play games in the game room, a small gym, the tennis/basketball court. There are even stables for horseback riding that has an additional fee. If you decide to get out for an adventure, we are a mile or so to whitewater rafting, 3 miles from the Nantahala's Outdoor Center (NOC) where there is kayaking, white water rafting, zip lining, dining options, adult beverages, cornhole or just sit in a chair by the rushing river. If you want to venture out further, you are about 10 miles to the Great Smokey Mt Railroad. Book a train ride in advance and enjoy a rare opportunity to ride the train throught the Smokey Mountains. If you enjoy casino's, Harrah's Cherokee is a 20 minute drive and Harrah's River Valley is a 30 minute drive.. If you are a biker, you are almost right in the middle of all the great motorcycle rides. It makes a great location to start and finish one part of the loop on one day and start and finish another the next day. Motorcycles are welcome in the resort. We ride ours here all the time. When you finish your day, you have a comfy queen size bed to lay down and recharge your batteries for the next day. When its time to rise and shine, there are coffee pods, ground coffee, creamers and sugar to start your day. The bathroom has a tub shower combo and just because we are all busy and sometimes forget to pack things, we have provided shampoo, comditioner, body wash, a hair dryer and make up wipes. We even have 2 TV on carts to move around for your viewing pleasure. The living room TV has Direct TV and the bedroom TV is a smart TV for streaming. The cabin also has its own WIFI. We visit as often as we can and try to have the cabin as comfortable as possible. We love it here and want to share it with you so, you can enjoy it as well. We hope to see you soon!!

The Polar Express

This cabin is in a great location and was very clean. We stayed here while visiting Bryson City to go on The Polar Express. The cabin is close to the train station and is also close to The Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We hiked Tom Branch Falls and Juney Whank Falls. The cabin has a nice hot tub that is very relaxing on cold nights and mornings. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone visiting the area!!!

Overall a Great Stay

We had a little snafu with the door code that’s why I gave 3 stars for check in process. But it was handled quickly by VRBO call center and the owner. The bed was super comfy and the house was very clean. The hot tub was a nice bonus! And the decor was adorable! I would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting a short getaway!

PERFECT!!!

Came out here to enjoy the area that we had never visited. Our hosts communicated immediately with each question we had, mostly due to the nearby hurricane disaster area and access to the Bryson City area. The cabin was driving the Tail of the Dragon to riding the train in Bryson to ZipLine under the trees. The cabin was immaculate with everything you need from coffee to a hot tub. Now that we have discovered this area AND this cabin we look forward to returning again next year. It was a wonderful stay and our hosts played a major part in that great memory. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

Fantastic experience! This place was just what we needed and we will certainly be back. The host Cynthia was so wonderful and even checked up on us when she knew we had lost power after a storm. We truly felt welcome and at home here. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ❤

Loved this place!!

Such a cute cottage and had everything we needed . We loved feeling remote but still close to things. Only complaints would be the bed. We felt like the box spring was broke or mattress was just worn in. One side of the bed was falling when we laid on it which made for a little bit of uncomfortable sleeping but we loved the cabin entirely other than this minor inconvenience

About the host

Hosted by Cynthia Sexton

Host profile image
My husband (Scott) and love the Mts. We work hard and look forward to the the times we can get away and just rock on the front porch or ride 3 miles up the road and sit by the River at the Nantahala Outdoor Center. We love when we have great weather and can ride our motorcycles up and ride the loop and explore side roads for new adventures. This cabin and this area helps us relax and we want to share it with others. We have tried to make it as comfortable as possible. We want everyone who stays to feel and home.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is close to everything or has enought to keep you busy if you dont want to leave. You have the resort swimming pool (May-June), the tennis and basketball court, the small gym, the gameroom and for a fee the stables with horseback riding. To name a few.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is one of the few in the resort that is a stand alone and not a duplex and it is the only cabin in the resort with a screened in front porch. One of the many reasons we chose this cabin was the easy access and the amenities. Having the entire cabin with the yard, allowed us to have a firepit area. Its nice to sit by the fire and listen to nature,
