Welcome to High Hope: A Serene Mountain Retreat at 4000 Feet on Winchester Creek

Nestled at 4000 feet on the side of a mountain, High Hope is a charming cabin that offers an escape you'll never want to leave. This 3BR/2BA retreat is perfectly suited for outdoor enthusiasts, whether you're a hiker eager to explore the trails or someone who simply wants to relax on the deck and enjoy the serene beauty of the surrounding woods, wildflowers, and the soothing sounds of Winchester Creek.

High Hope features a 3 bedroom, 2 bath layout with an inviting open floor plan. On the main level, you'll find two bedrooms, vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace for cozy evenings, and a spacious kitchen equipped with modern amenities including Wi-Fi, heating, a washer & dryer, and Smart Lock for convenient keyless entry. The primary suite boasts its own ensuite bathroom, and both bathrooms offer a tub/shower combo for relaxation after a long day of adventures.

The upstairs loft is a great hangout spot, featuring two single beds, a trundle bed, and a large 55 TV—ideal for movie nights or lounging. Open the windows to let in the fresh mountain air and the tranquil sounds of the nearby creek as you drift off to sleep.

Located just minutes from the Balsam entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway, High Hope is conveniently close to mountain adventures, fine dining, shopping, and local breweries. The cabin is only 6 miles from downtown Waynesville and a 30-minute drive to Cherokee and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, placing countless activities and scenic spots at your doorstep. Make High Hope your next getaway destination and experience the beauty and tranquility of mountain living.

    The hot tub was the highest quality tub we've used at a rental, the pool table had conversion into a ping pong table (that we sadly didn't have time to use), and the space was enormous and wonderfully furnished. The view of the lake was phenomenal and it was a convenient drive to anything we needed. This unit sets the bar for all future visits.

    The hosts were amazing, the house was perfect, the Lake was beautiful. Plenty of room for our group, and every amenity one could wish for. Any time we gad a question we had a reply within minutes. We all would highly recommend.

    The house was great with beautiful views, several levels of porches. Space to spread out. The lake and the sidewalk around the lake was very scenic. Liked the convenience of Food Lion about 5 minutes away. Cooked a lot. Resort amenities are not included. There is not a sandy area with swimming in the lake. The pool was nice 10 per person per day. Pickle ball was the hit of the week and we brought our own paddles. Otherwise you can rent equipment. The mini golf needs a make over.

    Was a great place to stay with several other adults. We all had plenty of room to spread out as well as lots of great hang out options. Loved the multiple decks and the pool/pong pong table! Would definitely stay here again
