Nestled on an acre in the Snowbird Mountains sits the “Hooked on Snowbird” Cabin, a blend of rustic accommodations and modern conveniences. The one level cabin is accessible by a private road located off a one lane bridge. The property backs up to the Snowbird Creek, which Game & Fish calls it “Trout Fisherman Friendly”. Go for a “Smokies Slam” (catch a wild Brown Rainbow and a Brookie in a single day’s outing).

The screened back porchoverlooks the Snowbird Creek. It is the perfect place for an early morning cup of coffee in one of the two rockers or at the dining set.

The cabin has an open floor plan with a vaulted ceiling that stretches from the living room to the kitchen, which gives you all the room you can ask for. The living room is cozy with a gas fireplace, couch, love seat, recliner, smart TV and a view of the water.

Enjoy watching and listening to Snowbird Creek from two of the bedrooms (the master and a guest), the family room and back porch. The master and guest bedrooms are on opposite sides of the cabin, everyone will have an added layer of privacy.

The Master Bedroom is an ensuite and has a king size Purple RestorePremier™ Hybrid Mattress, walk-in closet and a smart tv. Both guest rooms have a queen size bed. The Blue Guest Room has a dresser and a closet. The Front Guest Bedroom has a small dresser, no closet. There is luggage racks provided in bedroom for your convenience.

Both bathrooms have a tub/shower combo, hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner and individual bar bath soaps for your travel convenience.

You will find everything needed in the kitchen with plenty of granite counterspace to allow easier meal preparation. There is a microwave, dish-washer, coffee maker, electric can opener, even a 6-quart programmable slow cooker, pots, pans, cookie sheets, grill supplies, etc. I added a few of my favorite spices for your gourmet creations.

The laundry room has a washer, dryer, iron, ironing board and laundry detergent.

Whether you are having a grilled lunch at the picnic table, or roasting marshmallows over the firepit under a beautiful night sky, or just sitting in the swing listening to the creek the cabin is sure to provide a respite and recharge.

Excellent Trout Fishing can be found on the Hatchery Supported or Delayed Harvest sections of the Snowbird, or take a drive to the Nantahala or Tellico Rivers, both of which are included in the Trout Unlimited list of the top 100 in the nation. For those wishing to tangle with a legendarily Steelhead Trout, the Snowbird becomes a special stream in the winter months with a run of Steelhead Trout from Lake Santeetlah.

Enjoy the easy hike in the Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, take in the beauty with a drive on the Cherohala Skyway, or ride the Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap only a short distance from the cabin. You can also find white water rafting on the Nantahala River, hiking and bike trails in the Tsali Recreation Area, and Entertainment in Cherokee, NC with in a 1-hour drive.

Streamside location was so peaceful with soothing sound of the creek flowing. Excellent base location for fly fishing in the area. Definitely recommend this property.

    What an amazing stay! In the 20 years that we’ve been coming to this area to trout fish, this was by far our favorite. The cabin is fully stocked with anything you need and Liz is an amazing host! Best communication ever! The cabin looks small but it’s the perfect size! Plenty of room and we loved the layout. Fishing was good and it was nice to come home and use the gas logs to take the evening chill off. If you have kids, this is the perfect place for you. So many games and places for them to play but it’s also great for just two adults! We will for sure be back as it’s our new favorite!

    Most VRBOs are stocked with leftover cookware and secondhand linens. This cabin had everything we could have possibly wanted or needed. It made us feel like it was our very own place. Furnished and decorated exquisitely. Nicer than the photos. We caught (and released) several trout and made s’mores at the fire pit next to the creek. The hosts are super people and were very responsive. We can’t wait to stay here again.

We enjoyed the stream that passed behind the cabin as well. The cabin had everything and I mean everything we needed. Communications from the host were timely and thorough.

    I rented this house for my husband and his frends to do a guys getaway trip with their motorcycles. Not only did this house accommodate the three men perfectly, but Liz was a fantastic host. She answered all questions the guys had, especially about accommodating a 22ft trailer. She did warn them about a turn that was concerning and gave helpful advice on what to look out for. Liz also provided information on places to eat, things to do in the area, and what kind of fish they have a chance to catch in the stream out back.My husband told me the property was breathtaking, and the interior was tasteful. It was cozy, inviting, and nicely decorated. My husband was the only one who had prior experience with a guys trip but when they all returned home, they told me I need to book this place again for them next year. Maybe this time the wives can go too.My husband and his friends would give 1000 stars if they could. They could not have asked for a better place to stay or a better host.

    I can’t say enough about this wonderful property experience. The cabin was perfect and we felt right at home from the start. It was so awesome having Snowbird Creek just feet from the back door. My grandkids loved tubing in it for hours. Liz is the most wonderful and attentive host. She has thought of everything, so if you forget something, she probably has it there somewhere. We will definitely be back!

    This a lovely cabin located right on the creek. You can sit on the screened porch, by the firepit or in the swing and enjoy the sound of the creek. The cabin is clean, beautifully decorated, the beds are comfortable, and the owners stocks the cabin with everything you need. The fishing in the area is good and there are so many places to visit around the cabin that you can stay busy if you want. You can also just chill and enjoy your surroundings. Liz was easy to reach and reacted quickly to questions. If you are looking for the perfect place to stay, Hooked on Snowbird should be your choice.

    Super clean...seemed new cabin on a beautiful waterfront property on Snowbird Creek. This cabin has great amenities...no skimping. From the linens to the tableware, and furniture...quality. The pictures are accurate. I enjoyed the front and back porch and the very comfortable bench swing by the river. The kitchen had many staples available if you forgot something essential...or wanted to try a new spice. Liz was easily available through texting for any questions. When I return to the Robbinsville area, I will plan around availability of Liz's cabin. Kati

Plenty of room for parking of multiple cars (we had 4 with plenty of room to spare) and plenty of room for trailers. It is amazingly peaceful as well. The communication through out the whole process was amazing! 10/10 recommend

    We’ve been coming to snowbird for 3 years now. The cabin is awesome and we’ve stayed at 2 other cabins there. Each cabin has its own character and this one is perfect for a small group of 3. Just the right amount of rooms and the living space was just right for 3 people. You can’t go wrong with this cabin.

    Located just outside of town so as to be convenient yet very private. Our group was there to explore all the nice driving roads in the area and was perfectly suited for us. To say the cabin was organized and had EVERYTHING you may need is an understatement. It truly had all the amenities of home. Quiet, cozy and perfectly clean. Communication with the owner was fantastic. She offered more guidance, support and perks than anyone could ask for or deserves and was truly an amazing host. If you are visiting this area then this cabin and how it’s run will not disappoint!

    Our first road trip on the Cherohala Skyway was a complete success . Hooked on Snowbird was the absolute best place to stay in Robbinsville, right in the middle of the most beautiful area of North Carolina. From the minute you cross the bridge over the creek a calm comes over you as you arrive at the cabin. It felt like home as soon as you walk in the front door . It's loaded with all the comforts of home and we found everything we needed . Comfortable King size bed, wi-fi, Big screen TV, Weber grill , swing by the creek and a screened porch overlooking this creek. I could go on and on about how Awesome this cabin is. If peace and quiet is what you are after, do yourself a favor, choose this cabin and you won't be disappointed.

    I typically bring everything but the kitchen sink. However upon arrival snowbird is well equipped. We spent a lot of time in the water out back and tubing was a fun experience for us all. Snowbird is close to so many things just check out the folder even things I haven't thought about. We plan to vacation here again
