A nice surprise tucked away near the base of Hogback Mountain. This three bedroom, two bath home has everything you need for a weekend getaway or a much longer stay in the beautiful mountains of western NC. All one easy living level, you'll find a wrap-around deck, living area with a gas log fireplace, 43 TV, comfortable seating and a small game table. The eat-in kitchen is fully equipped and ready for you to prepare some good ol' mountain cooking. The Mst. BR has a Queen bed, and private bath. The guest room has two twins and shares a full bath, while the third bedroom has a bunk bed. The laundry area is located in the mud room, off of the side entrance. This home features excellent Wi-Fi, and although you may not need it most of the time, it also has air conditioning.
The yard is mostly level- great for children, bring a quilt/blanket and have an outdoor picnic, or enjoy a good book, but be prepared to take a snooze, because the sounds of nearby Little Buck Creek just may lull into slumber.

Cold Mountain Cabin is centrally located between the quaint mountain towns of Highlands and Franklin.

Highlands is about 9.5 miles away and offers a wide range of shopping from T-shirts to furs, hamburger places to 4-star restaurants. Seasonal music on the weekends and things like Farmer's Markets and craft shows from time to time. Culturally, there's a small movie theatre, live theatre, domed, heated pool open year round. Hudson Library, The Bascom Center for Visual Arts, and the Performing Arts Center, Highlands Historical Society, and Museum. If you're into nature, Highlands has a wonderful in-town Greenway trail, great for people who like to get some energy out while enjoying the natural canopy of trees.
Franklin is about 13 miles from Cold Mountain Cabin, and is the county seat for Macon County. Franklin is a little more spread out, and offers a lovely and quaint Main Street. Franklin is known as the gem capitol of the world! The Main Street is alive with Mom & Pop stores including the Scottish Tartans Society/Museum, book stores, coffee shops and more. Franklin is where you'll find the larger discount stores like Walmart, and home store like Lowe's etc.

The whole area is known for its waterfalls, but there are also things to do like hiking, zip lining, fly fishing and of course golf. In Highlands, all the golf courses are private, but several open to the public within 30 minutes to an hour of Cold Mountain Cabin.

We didn't have any issues although we did have a question and the realty company was quick to respond and was very helpful. It is remote but the drive is beautiful and the roads are good.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very clean, bright house. Starter necessities were all there. 9 miles from town. Easy to park and access property. Would definitely stay there again. If there was any thing to complain about, I'd say maybe consider upgrading the matter and twin bed room mattresses. But overall 9/10!
