Unwind at Twin Pines (formerly called Buckhorn), a cozy and secluded 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin in the perfect setting for your mountain getaway. Totally updated decor as of Spring 2025!

The area:

Nature lovers will appreciate close proximity to the Nantahala National Forest, Nantahala Outdoor Center, Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, Smoky Mountain National Park, the Appalachian Trail, Stecoah Gap, Tsali Recreation (mountain biking), and Deep Creek Tubing.

Boaters will love easy access to Fontana Lake or Lake Santeetlah with different marina and launch options nearby.

Drivers will appreciate opportunities to cruise the Tail of the Dragon or the Cherohala Skyway.

Just 30 minutes away, you will find various activities in Bryson City, such as the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, shopping, breweries and restaurants.

The cabin:

With updated decor and furnishings, everything in the cabin has been curated for a comfortable stay.

Enjoy coffee or happy hour at the bistro set on the deck. Read a book under the trees in an adirondack. Relax by the outdoor fire-pit or in the hot tub beneath the stars.

Inside, you'll find a well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and fully stocked cabinets with numerous cooking and dining essentials.

Plan your dinner under the antler chandelier at the table for 6 and then cozy up by the gas log fireplace to watch your favorite movie.

Starlink internet available for wifi and the Smart tv in the living room. Roku tvs are in both bedrooms for streaming.

The downstairs bedroom features a king sized bed with a hallway bathroom. The downstairs bedroom, bathroom and hallway are divided from the main living area with sliding/privacy doors so it feels like a master suite area.

Upstairs, you will find a second bedroom (loft) with a king sized bed, an open closet which can be used as an additional sleeping nook with a full-sized Murphy Bed. There is also a small desk/workspace.

The drive to the cabin is a one lane road with a somewhat steep incline into the driveway. Four-wheel-drive is not required, but is advised. Experienced motorcyclists only.

Guests looking to store a boat or motorcycle trailer are welcome to use a community parking area that is marked just as you enter The Pines community but before you start up the hill to the cabin.

Cell service can be difficult at this cabin, but if you have 'Wi-Fi calling' feature on your phone, that will work with our free Wi-Fi service. There is a sweet spot for cell service in an emergency at the Teaberry Campground located at the bottom of the hill by the entrance to 'The Pines' community.

Fast, reliable internet is provided by Starlink.

Also, because this property is managed by the most reputable company in Bryson City, Watershed Cabins, you will participate in their Xplorie program. With Xplorie, you get a free admission to each of several participating attractions for every day of your stay! See Watershed Cabins for more information on this deal.

    We stayed here back in September, and it was lovely. The hill to the cabin was a little steep, but after a few times, it was pretty easy. The cabin was cozy, and the bed was very comfortable. The deck was very peaceful, and fall was beautiful. I felt that everything was within a good distance. The cabin provided everything we needed, and it felt like home.

    The cabin was beautiful - the setting, the decor as well as the amenities - they even decorated for Christmas which made our stay super comfy cozy! I was very impressed with how well-stocked the kitchen was, making it easy to throw together a few quick meals in between enjoying the beautiful mountain drives and heavenly hot tub sessions. This was the first time my husband and I took a trip by ourselves without the kids since our honeymoon almost 5 years ago, and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting to reconnect and enjoy each other. We will definitely be back!

    This was a really cute cabin with a nice view and good amenities, the included tickets to local attractions were a nice bonus. We especially appreciated how comfy the bed and linens were, and the place was very clean. Check in was a breeze. However, we did have a few issues that weren't just acts of God. We received two different passwords for accessing the wifi, both of which were wrong. We did finally get access after some stress by locating the router and using the password on the router. Additionally, the pots, pans, and bakeware provided were mostly unusable (as in scratched so badly they hardly even had their nonstick surface, were rusting, or had so much gunk on them they were unusable), and the dishwasher was unusable as there was a drawer handle preventing anyone from opening the door more than a foot. I will say, though, that we had an issue that was no one's fault and the repair person who came out was simply lovey, and we discussed the other issues with him and the staff, and it sounded like they were going to look in to fixes for the kitchen things. Overall, I would come back, I would just bring my own kitchen gear for cooking!

    Our initial cabin rental didn't have any running water due to a strong storm with heavy lightning, that caused some damage to the well water line. The next morning, we were upgraded to a nicer cabin that had all of the essentials. A big shout out to the team that helped accommodate us in a prompt manner. We enjoyed nearby activities and loved our stay.

    Nothing short of spectacular. Location was great given we had scheduled zip lining at the near by Nantahala Outdoor Center. Quiet property. Firewood provided but not used. Lights on at arrival to make entering easy. Would definitely stay again!

    My partner and I had amazing weekend in the cabin. We couldn’t ask for a better cabin view. When we was looking for cabin we wanted a cabin out in the wood without phone service so we could spend time without distractions from our phones! We had amazing time playing pool upstairs in the loft and soaking in the hot tub ! The only thing we regret is not booking the cabin for a whole week!

    Paid in full but Never checked in. NOT MOTORCYCLE OR TRAILER ACCESSIBLE..but this was never listed this way. The management company was a joke when trying to get help or at least some of our money back. Even before checking in it had hot tub problems and the wifi was going to be out all week. Property ,host , and watershed management were a complete scam. We were blessed to find a local place that could take us for the week and our vacation was saved. Lesson learned.

    Excellent property, steep drive. We enjoyed our stay and will return. Everything was in working order and had excellent communication with property management and owner.
