Come relax at this luxurious cabin and let the river put you to sleep at night. Paradise Cabin is unlike any of the properties in this area. This perfect getaway sits on a 65 acre private estate located in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains. The setting makes you feel like you are in the back country yet you are minutes from everything this area has to offer. We are only 1 mile from I-40 Exit 24 and 25 miles to Downtown Asheville and the Biltmore Estate. You only need to make a mere 10 minute drive to enjoy all that Downtown Waynesville has to offer from fine dining to some of the areas best local breweries. The Blue Ridge Parkway cuts right through this area and you are just minutes away from several of its entrances.

After more than 20 years of tearing down old barns and log cabins and hoarding away the kinds of things you can't just run to the local building supply and buy this unique property started to take shape. From the hand hewn solid oak log walls to the tobacco stick handrails this is a getaway that will make you want to stay and not leave. All the woodwork and trim in the house is reclaimed mostly from barns that were built 100 plus years ago by the owners great grandfather and has been reused into what you will see in this one of a kind cabin. The flooring on the main level is reclaimed antique heart of pine flooring as well as the hand hewn weathered beams in the ceiling. Open up the reclaimed Chestnut barn doors into the bedroom and have the whole house to yourself or bring friends and enjoy everything that this area has to offer.

Fishing in this area is a big attraction so bring your fishing rods and get lost in the beauty of the western North Carolina mountains. Walk down through the front yard and be fishing within minutes of your arrival, or maybe a nature walk would do you some good

This cabin offers two bedrooms with queen size beds and pillow top mattresses, Also a couch pullout full size bed. Two bathrooms, one with tub shower unit and one custom tile shower with river stone accents harvested from the river below. The kitchen has most everything for most all of your cooking needs. Downstairs you have a recreation room with a pool table, a mini bar, native stone fireplace with gas logs and a TV. There are four TV's, one in each bedroom. One in the main living room and one in bar/rec room. Direct TV and internet is provided as well. With one bedroom and bath upstairs and one down it is the perfect vacation for two couples to have plenty of privacy. Oh, and don't forget the downstairs patio and upstairs porch where you will most likely spend your time relaxing to the sounds of the river coming around the bend. Watch closely for the huge cranes, hawks and the occasional bald eagles that patrol the river. With this house being on the rivers edge you will most likely see some type of wildlife during your stay, there are coyotes,turkeys, ground hogs, deer, bear, squirrels, etc. With the long range mountain view driveway and the waterfront cabin this is a truly one of a kind property.

This property is home to more than fifty head of cattle so no pets are allowed at any time during your stay here. Also no smoking in the house but it is perfectly fine to smoke outside on the porch or outside patio. Please put discarded cigarettes in the containers provided as this property is in a wooded area with lots of dry leaves.

    The cabin exceeded our expectations in every way. It was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described—if not better. The setting was peaceful, the amenities were great, and everything was well thought out to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to others. The host was very communicative, responded quickly to any questions, and was extremely hospitable throughout our stay.

    My family and I enjoyed our stay at Paradise Cabin. The cabin met all of our needs and had comfortable seating throughout to enjoy the views of the river and mountains. Looking at the stars at night without city lights was wonderful. The fire pit provided much warmth on a cold night. My son and I enjoyed walking up the steep road on the property from the cabin to the main road and back down to the river. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway, this is your place! Thank you Jack and Christy! It was wonderful to meet y’all in person and thank you for your hospitality! Hope to be back again, God willing.

    Perfect little piece of paradise. We can’t wait to come back. Cabin was immaculate and stocked with everything you could need for a vacation. Property is gorgeous and the kids had a blast playing by the river. We can’t wait to come back. FYI: If technology/movie time is important to you, bring a laptop as the TVs have direct TV but are not smart TVs (not a big deal to us at all) but worth nothing.

    Check in was easy and secure. Kitchen was great, had everything we needed, Loved the farmhouse copper sink! Wi-Fi was just like home. So easy get to. Owners were so pleasant, easy to talk to, very attentive and eager to please and make our stay enjoyable. While they provided a nice restaurant guide they also provided ideas for restaurants they also enjoyed, which we did as well! Cabin was beautiful and well decorated and spotlessly clean. Everything was in excellent working order and simply beautiful. We caught some fish, saw Osprey, Blue Heron and on our last day, yes, a Bald Eagle. Rules were simple and easy to adhere to. Totally relaxing vacation, and we have reservations for next year, a real gem!

    Hosts were amazing, even brought me a birthday gift. Property is quiet and gorgeous. We played in the river in the backyard every day. Yes, I said river in the backyard. Plenty of options to enjoy the outdoors without leaving the cabin. Multiple decks and grills to utilize the spaces for convenience and enjoyment. One of the best cabins and experiences my family has had renting in the mountains. I definitely recommend and will be returning in the future.

    We got married at Max Patch and stayed here with our two kids for a week. The property is amazing with beautiful river views, tubing, fire pit, and grill. They even left us a bottle of champagne to celebrate our wedding. We had a wonderful time and the hosts were always very responsive. We will definitely be returning to stay at Paradise!
