Come relax on the spacious front porch and enjoy the long range mountain views while listening to the soothing sounds of the river below. Step back in time while enjoying all the modern creature comforts. We took down this 125+ year old hand hewn cabin several years ago and have been anxious to be able to recreate what you see here in the Cedar Cliff Cabin! This perfect getaway sits on a 65 acre private estate located in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains. The setting makes you feel likeyou 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.

This property takes shape after a lifetime of finding old barns and log cabins that were destined to be torn down or even left to rot away. Through the years we have carefully dismantled these structures and saved every usable item we could to try to create something special to us..... and hopefully special to our guests as well. From the antique hewn logs to the reclaimed locust porch posts, rails, and decking this is a uniquely different log cabin that you will have a hard time finding anything comparable. Step inside and feel the antique solid oak hand scraped barn wood flooring under your feet. Enjoy the warm feel of the solid poplar barn wood walls and ceilings mixed with just enough Spanish style stucco to brighten each space you enter. Enter the master bath to the spacious open shower with natural stone walls and stone mosaic flooring. Look above to see the exposed locust rafters and reclaimed beams in the vaulted ceiling.

You will more than likely spend most of your time here on the front porch relaxing to the long range mountain views. Watch closely for the huge cranes, hawks, and the occasional bald eagles that patrol the river. With the close proximity to the river you will most likely see some type of wildlife during your stay, there are coyotes, turkeys, groundhogs, deer, bear, squirrels, etc. This property is home to more than 50 head of cattle so no pets are allowed at any time during your stay here. Also no smoking in the house but it is fine to smoke outside on the porch. Please put discarded cigarettes in the containers provided as this property is in a wooded area with lots of dry leaves.

We hope that your visit to the mountains of western North Carolina and stay in our cabin create memories that will stay with you forever. Please respect the cabin and treat it as if it were your own as we respect you as a customer.

With four unique private cabins now on the property, Riverbend Cabin (listing number 7843149), Paradise at the Rivers Edge (listing number 1148597), CastAway Cabin (listing number 3156188), and now Cedar Cliff Cabin please check out our feedback ratings on the other properties and feel free to message about renting multiple cabins for your family getaway. All three are within walking distance yet very private.

    Beautiful custom cabin with every amenity you could possibly want or need. Especially loved the views from the porch of the surrounding mountains and area. Close to Waynesville and Maggie Valley. Hosts very kind and accommodating. Will definitely consider another stay in this lovely home.

    10/10‼ The view, the sound of the river, and the location is perfect!! It is only a little over an hour from Gatlinburg & there is an amazing steak & seafood restaurant in Waynesville called Maggy's Galley which was recommended by our host, Jack. This cabin was absolutely beautifully remodeled! You will need nothing but your cloths. The property is spectacular!! HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Were going back FOR SURE‼

    This cabin is outstanding!!! Everything about it is perfect for your getaway, including the large front porch overlooking the river and beautiful views of the mountains, along with a fire pit. The inside of the cabin is gorgeous and modern and decorated so beautifully!! We loved having the gas logs when the weather turned cold and snowed and there is also a washer and dryer. We met the sweet owner’s upon our arrival and could reach out to them with any issues, but had none. We had a wonderful time relaxing here and it will definitely not be our only stay, we're already looking forward to visiting again.

    This is a great place for a peaceful stay. It is quiet and private, but only a short drive to I 40 and a 30 minutes drive to Asheville. There so much to do in the area, but the cabin is nice enough you don't want to leave.

    This is a great cabin to come and enjoy your person. Chose this spot for our 10 year anniversary and we were not disappointed. The view, the river, the cabin were all as advertised. Jack and Christie were very accommodating and available. He even gave me a couple of his own fishing baits to try and catch a few fish in the river. We certainly will try to come back and possibly stay at one of his three other cabins on the property

    The property is very clean and has plenty of space to spread out - we had hiking gear etc.. There is plenty of space on the patio to hang out also - lounge chairs and a nice dining table. The owners are on the same piece of land and couldn’t be more responsive and kind. The house is really a work of art for woodworkers. Just gorgeous flooring and walls etc. the house sits high up from the river so not direct access, but easy enough to drive one minute to be on the river. Easy access to Waynesville and Sylva and any hiking you can ever want to do. Great produce just north of the property.

    My husband and I had a wonderful stay! The cabin was the perfect couple’s getaway — private, peaceful, and beautifully decorated with tasteful modern upgrades. The mountain views from the porch were stunning and made for a truly relaxing experience. You can tell the owners have put a lot of love and care into the space. They even stopped by to personally welcome us — a rare gesture these days. While unexpected, it was clear it came from a place of genuine hospitality. If you're looking for a cozy retreat in nature that’s still close to downtown, this is the perfect spot!

    Everything was perfect! The cabin is exceptionally and beautifully decorated, and the fall decor was an added touch. Everything you need, is here in the cabin. I was happy to see a Kureig and a regular brewing coffee pot. The water from the faucet is excellent to drink and is great for my hair. It's not like the Florida chlorinated water I'm afraid to drink and frizzes out my already frizzy hair. The fireplace remote is on the wall, and is on a timer ('Skytech' I believe was the name on the timer). The outside porch is so nice and I really enjoyed sitting there overlooking the river. The owners are absolutely wonderful and have great communication. We weren't sure if we should proceed with the trip, being Hurricane Helene's mass of destruction, but they let us know it was okay to go and they need our business in the area. This was our 2nd trip there. The first being the Riverbend Cabin, which is also beautiful cabin as well. As long as the owners offer these cabins to stay, we will always come back to their beautiful cabins.
