Vacation Rentals By Owner In Topton, NC

LUXURY BEAR CABIN ON THE NANTAHALA RIVERbrbrRelax at this one of a kind luxury cabin with the best views of the Nantahala River in the gated community of Mystic River. Every room was built to appreciate the beautiful surroundings with floor to ceiling picturesque views of the Nantahala River right from your living room. Enjoy your morning coffee on the large outdoor deck cozying up next to the gas fireplace listening to the sounds of the birds chirping and the rushing white water river. You are in the middle of the Nantahala National Forest, which is a temperate rain forest. Watch the morning mist rise from the river and into the majestic mountains right in front of you. Discover your connection with nature kayaking or rafting on the Nantahala River from your own backyard. The Nantahala Outdoor Center is just a few minutes down the street to rent or book a rafting experience. There are plenty of hiking trails, waterfalls and a natural swimming hole within walking distance. brbrIf you are looking for good food and fun, there is plenty to do right around our community. You can check out the great restaurants, local breweries, shopping, gem mining, zip lining, fly fishing, and even book a guided whitewater rafting experience at the Nantahala Outdoor Center all just a few minutes away. The Great Smokey Mountains National Park in Bryson City is only 20 minutes away and is a must visit when you are here. It has beautiful waterfalls and hiking trails but it is famous for Deep Creek tubing. So grab a large river tube near the park entrance, we recommend the ones with a bottom on it, and float down the cool waters of Deep Creek past waterfalls and swimming areas. Deep Creek is a great place to picnic and spend the day relaxing. brbrOur home is over 3,000 square feet with 3 bedrooms. It comfortably sleeps 6 adults and 4 children. The cabin features a luxury rustic feel with a North Carolina bear theme. The main floor has a great room with a large stone wood-burning fireplace with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the Nantahala River. You can also enjoy your favorite shows and movies on Netflix on the 50 inch smart tv in the living room or on the 65 inch smart tv upstairs. Adjacent is the dining room area with a large live edge wood slab table with views of the river through glass sliding doors that lead to the deck. A small wine cellar and wet bar is next to the large chef's kitchen which is outfitted with all your cooking utensils and high quality appliances. The kitchen has a uniquely designed island with 4 comfortable swivel hardwood barstools. Also on the main floor is the primary bedroom with sliding glass doors onto the deck overlooking the river. brbrThe primary bedroom has a large walk-in closet and a large on suite bathroom. The bathroom has a unique stone jetted spa tub and a walk in river rock shower with multiple shower heads to give you the full spa experience. There is a log bunkbed in the master bedroom that sleeps two. brbrDown the hallway is a half bath located across from the laundry room with new large stackable washer/dryer and plenty of closet space. In the dining room area there are large sliding glass doors that leads to a spacious custom outdoor deck with a stone gas fireplace and wooden rocking chairs overlooking the river. Grill and chill on the outdoor deck next to the river with the propane grill and casual patio dinning table then enjoy s’mores at the outdoor fire pit steps from the river. brbrThe upper level has a large loft area with plenty of comfortable seating for playing boardgames or reading. Adjacent is an office area with river views from the large presidential style desk and a couple leather chairs for anyone needing to work remotely. Cell service can be limited at times but thanks to Starlink we are very happy with our WiFi calling via high speed internet. Working remotely and zoom calling have not been a problem. Down the hallway is a wet bar with a microwave, sink and beverage fridge. There are two large bedrooms upstairs with one bedroom having a large on suite bathroom with a walk in shower and the other bedroom has a half bath. There is a rustic log bunkbed for children in one of the upstairs bedrooms. brbrWatch the sun set below the mountains as you relax on the porch swing taking in your surroundings and the serene mountain views. Come and create your own adventures and ever-lasting memories year after year with family and friends, as we enjoy doing with our family, at the Bear Cabin on the Nantahala River. #Nantahala # Nantahalariverbr

A traditional log home, completely wood inside and out. Just a small glimpse of heaven from this beautiful lakefront log home with breathtaking views of Nantahala Lake and the mountains surrounding it. The majestic mountains rising out of the crystal clear mountain lake waters are the backdrop for a wonderful vacation. This large body of water towers at the height of 3013 ft above sea level. brbrThe spaces inside are large and comfortable for 10 people. The kitchen is fully equipped and modern with a Jenn-Aire dual fuel gas stovetop cooking and electric baking. The dining table will seat 8 people comfortably and has a view of the lake. The bedrooms all have queen or king beds. The basement has a pool table, a TV and a table top shuffle board table, all for your entertainment. It also has an additional bathroom with a shower/tub combination and a laundry room with a washer and dryer. brbrThere is an outdoor fire pit for roasting marshmallows and making s'mores or build a fire outside and enjoy. If you choose to bring a boat, there is deep water, concrete, public ramp for launching nearby, and we have a deep water dock for keeping your boat during your stay. The lake is lowered by Duke Energy beginning around the middle of September, and it doesn't come back up until the spring. During these times, the dock will be resting on the lake bottom.brThe gentle slope from the house to the lake and dock is easy to walk along the gravel path, which has a few landings. Enjoy sitting outside and watching the lake's water activities. brPhotos of the interior can be relied on for a general feel of the furnishings; however, the furnishings may be changed from time to time. Photos of the exterior can be relied on for a general feel of the walk down to the dock. Don't think that they were taken yesterday, they weren't, but it is still the same backyard. The summer months have more foliage on the plants and trees than the winter months. The exterior photos were taken in the cooler months, and we don't show all the seasons in our photos. Heavy rains will cause the pea gravel to move, and that is unfortunate, but we don't have a lawn maintenance person to add more gravel. The mountains are natural, and we want to keep it that way.brbrThere is a Harrah's Casino within a 45-minute drive.brbrMust be 28 years or older to rent.brbrThe drive to the cabin is about 20 minutes of gravel, single-lane road, and is not conducive to low-riding vehicles.brbrKeywords: Lake Front Log Home, very private dock, easy access to the dock, lake frontage, nearby rafting, casino, secluded.
