NEXT - the Story …

WHERE DOES ALL THAT WATER COME FROM I am so often left wondering.

THE SETTING. It's all about the creek! Private, soothing and relaxing is how our guests always describe Rushing Waters Cabin, a 1200 square foot rustic cabin sitting just feet from a rushing, meandering creek -- in a MAGNIFICENT SETTING! The boulder-strewn creek borders the heavily-wooded 1-acre lot for 250 feet. If you're at the cabin after a good rain you'll enjoy a roaring creek and small waterfalls rushing over the boulders - amazing. The cabin is strategically sited where you get the best view of the creek from the whole living area. If you have never stayed creekside - this is the way to go -- creek runs right next to cabin and you hear it rushing ALL THE TIME -- so relaxing! Mother nature’s lullaby. Lots to see in the area but plan to spend time at the cabin to enjoy the creek ... it will call to you. .

EVERYONES FAVORITE SPOTS. Everyone raves about the screened sleeping porch, sitting right on the creek. It’s a favorite spot to enjoy the views and sounds of the creek, with its comfy futon and gas fireplace. I love having my hot morning coffee out there, wrapped in a blanket, sitting fireside on a cold morning. Or spending an afternoon reading a book there. Definitely the best spot to take in the magic around you, regardless of the weather.

There’s also the comfy window seat that opens up to the sleeping porch and also overlooks the creek. Or the comfy leather sofa in the living area, with its huge stacked-stone, wood-burning fireplace.

The creek is lit so you can enjoy it in the evenings. There is also an outdoor firepit to enjoy a cozy fire off the deck and an outdoor dining area overlooking the creek. Gas barbecue too.

THE FOREST. The cabin is located amongst a forest of tall trees and is heavily shaded creekside. Many of the trees are 50 feet tall or more. We have lots of rhodos and azaleas blooming from May on. So even in the winter there will be the green of the rhodos all around you. The creekside is usually cool. Because of the creek and our elevation (about 1500 feet) it’s always cooler here - even in summer.

THE CABIN. We recently painted the exterior and decks - cabin looks beautiful. New laminate floors throughout home; carpet in bedrooms. The cabin is rustic, with cedar tongue and groove throughout, giving it the cozy, lodge feel you envision for a 'mountain cabin.' Modern open--plan living area, large living--dining area, massive stone wood fireplace. Executive lodgings with rusic appeal. Cabin is decorated with style and comfort in mind (not grandmas's plaid sofa).

In the open living area you will find a comfy leather sofa and huge club chair - softest leather ever - relax with a view of the creek thru the sliding doors, the fire roaring on the stone fireplace and a good movie on the tv. Or lay out on 8-foot window seat that overlooks the creek. Indoor dining seats 4-6 and outdoor dining seats 6. Cabin has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths and sleeps 4 in beds: the master bedroom has a king bed with a full bath, plus an electric fireplace; the second bedroom has a queen bed. Quality beds are comfortable. Window seat can sleep 2 small kids (probably not the best for adults). Full -size futon (with a real mattress) on the screened sleeping porch is available for those who want to sleep and “glamp' by the creek..

Fully-equipped kitchen. Pod and regular coffeemaker. Air-fryer/convection oven. Central air and heat. Washer/dryer. Alexa. Lots of blankets and cushions. Games, cards, puzzles and books too. All the comforts of home. Our guests always comment on how we have 'everything'!

WIFI; Flat screen HD TVs available in the living room and both bedrooms. We have broadband internet but we cut the cable and all tvs are on Roku streaming. Or bring your fire stick or other streaming device. *** CELL PHONE and all its features should work on WiFi calling setting. Check with your cell carrier first that coverage - we also have a landline.

PETS ALLOWED. We welcome your dogs. We charge a 1-time pet cleaning fee, that's it. We love our new floors - please cut your pup’s claws b4 you arrive. No cats - they scratched the leather furniture). And not to worry --- home is aired out regularly and super clean - smells fresh and clean. No mustiness or pet odor.

Small children are OK but you MUST supervise them at all times.

FINALLY - NEARBY ATTRACTIONS.

Plan on a few days at the cabin. But if you want to get out and sightsee there are so many beautiful places and wonderful mountain experiences waiting for you here in the Lake Chatuge area! You have to do Hiawassee - amazing lake town - 15-20 minutes away.

CASINO opened in Murphy - about 25 minutes away.

LAKE CHATUGE, the Jewel of the Mountains, is undoubtedly the most beautiful lake in the mountain area. It provides ample opportunities for waterside dining and excellent fishing and boating (boat and water toy rentals available). (15 minutes)

The great lakeside town of HIAWASSEE GA, with its beautiful views of Lake Chatuge, its lakeside restaurants and its funky shops (15-20 minutes)

The picturesque alpine village of HELEN GA with lots of nice dining, bars and shopping, plus tubing on the river in summer.(30-40 minutes)

HIAWASSEE RIVER where you can tube or kayak down the lazy river

Excellent FISHING on Lake Chatuge (its stocked) and Tuni Creek nearby.

GOLF at one of the beautiful mountain golf courses nearby -- The Ridges, Chatuge Shores or Brasstown Resort (5-25 minutes).

Not to mention, horseback riding, hiking trails, and great mountain and antique shopping.

DAY TRIPS. Great homebase location to explore the area. Other nearby cities include Asheville, Lake Lure, Gatlinburg, Cherokee, Highlands, Chimney Rock and Atlanta - most 1-2 hours away. . . Whitewater rafting and stunning waterfalls nearby too. Plan to stay awhile … there’s so much to do !

HOW TO GET HERE. Fly into Atlanta or Asheville and rent a car for a scenic 2 1/2-hour drive to the cabin. You can also come in through Tennessee or Asheville.

    I've stayed at this location previously so it says something that I enjoyed it enough to return. It is a wonderful location, very quiet. The home was clean and well stocked. Communication beforehand was thorough and timely. I'll definitely be checking my calendar for a future stay.

    The host was communicative and responsive to my messages. A peaceful and relaxing place to be, right next to the creek. A rustic feel with a few updates, floors were recently replaced, fireplace was remodeled and a few light fixtures were changed out. The cabin was clean with a fresh smell, no animal smells. However there were a few things neglected. There is a broken window pane in one of the living room windows. Several light switches that didn’t work or you had to be flicked hard to get it to work. Several lights were burned out outside. The tub/shower combo in the guest bathroom had a crack in the bottom of the tub that was squishy when you stepped on it, which was covered up by a mat. The sliding door doesn’t open and close easily and it was hard to lock. We had to kill multiple bugs while there and quite a few dead bugs were found in the ceiling light fixtures in the bathrooms. Overall the stay was pleasant as the creek is what drew us to this cabin.

    Beautiful rustic cabin, the creek was beautiful, fun area for us to hang out with a dog! She loved running and exploring!!! Seen some cool animals under rocks while looking for minerals and rocks! It rained everyday we were there but that never bothered us or our relaxing time!! The owner is super nice and helpful! The internet is iffy so if you want that it may be an issue but that was the least of our concerns and worries. The area is beautiful and Lake Chatuge is beautiful also!

    This property is located on a babbling brook in the NC mountains. It’s perfect for those who want to get away from harried life. Just sit on the creek front porch with a good book and relax. It is an older property, but is very clean and has a well equipped kitchen.Pro tip, after you input the door code, press pound! (#)

    We celebrated our 30th anniversary and the creekside cabin was the perfect place to relax and spend time with our family. The cabin was clean, comfortable and stocked with all the amenities. The only downside was the Wi-Fi did not work when it rained and was very slow and spotty even when it wasn’t. Besides that everything was wonderful!

    My wife ask for our 35th wedding anniversary to get away somewhere that was secluded away from the busy world we live in. She really wanted a cabin on a creek so she could relax and listen to the running water. This house checked all the boxes. We really enjoyed our time at this home. I really have nothing negative to say about this house. The only thing that we would change was the king size bed was very hard. Which a lot of people enjoy a firm bed but it was a little hard for us old people. But this is a great home and we had no problems will worth the money.

    We had never traveled that far west in NC. Had a wonderful experience, while we did venture out and explore the area it was just as nice staying in. The coming months ( we stayed end of March) should be beautiful, the cabin is completely surrounded by rhododendrons that are getting ready to bloom. While it’s not the most updated cabin, it’s cozy and the creek is the star of the show. Spent most my time reading on the futon in the screened in porch. Has a wonderful time mother daughter and grand dog golden retriever. So nice to find a place where the dog could relax with us. Would stay again in the future!

    The property is on the mountain stream and is stacked and loaded with everything you need for relaxation or family entertainment, plus they allow dogs. We had the best weekend and cannot wait to come back when it is a bit warmer and we can really enjoy the sleeping porch!!! There is something about a mountain stream that really relaxes the soul. Are there newer, more modern upscale rentals... Probably.... Will those rentals welcome you like a distant relative who has been gone too long .. absolutely NOT. This place was just what I needed. Kudos to Annie for everything!plus dogs are allowed!

    Although the stream is truly lovely, the inside of the cabin is unpleasant. It is very dark and has a strong odor of mold. We also found that is was not clean or well cared for. Most notably, the dishwasher was broken and there was a leg missing on the king bed. We left 5 days early.

    This property is in an awesome location with absolutely beautiful surroundings.. I really hate that I have to rate it so low due to the below issues. Unfortunately, there are some pretty important things that need to be addressed. The outside lighting is very dark coming in at night (safety issue), but the major thing is that there were bugs and mice. And I mean A LOT of roach bugs. We were pretty grossed out when we turned on the kitchen lights at night. They were everywhere. The owner was non-responsive the first part of the trip. We had issues with the televisions also (but finally got those working with a restart ourselves). She admitted she was tied up with other renovations and missed the messages. We tried to be understanding, but we had enough issues that we were frustrated. She did at that point offer to pay for bug spray if we wanted to go and buy some. I am hopeful she will address this because she was very nice once we spoke to her and assured us no one else had let her know of these problems.
