★ OUTDOOR AMENITIES (The Good Stuff)

Brand-New Hot Tub: Surrounded by forest and string lights, open year-round. There is nothing like soaking under the stars after a day on the trails.

Finnish Cedar Sauna: Heated and ready, right on the riverbank. Steam up, then step into the cold river. Hot/cold therapy at its best.

Covered Carport Game Area: Ping pong, hillbilly golf, outdoor Jenga, bar-height seating, and string lights. This is where the evening competition happens.

Fire Pit: Circular fire pit with Adirondack chairs.

Riverfront Gazebo: Covered deck right on the water with lounge seating and string lights. Best seat in the house.

Covered Main Porch: Outdoor dining table, lounge seating, chandelier under exposed beams.

Wood-Planked River Walkway: A scenic path from the cabin straight to the water, ending at a wide sandy beach area along the river.



★ THE RIVER & WATERFALLS

The Whitewater River is entirely private here, with no public access and no other cabins on the water. It's one of the best wild trout streams in western NC, home to rainbow, brown, and brook trout.



A short private trail leads to six named waterfalls: Bedrock Falls, Canyon Falls, Entrance Falls, Exit Falls, Merge Lane Falls, and 55 MPH Falls.



Bedrock Falls is also a favorite spot for tubing. Guests launch from the top of the falls and ride the current, and some take tubes all the way down to the calm lagoon at Exit Falls. Trout fishing is excellent in and around these spots: the pools above and below Bedrock Falls and the Exit Falls lagoon are go-to stretches on the property. Bedrock Falls has even hosted small private weddings.



Hiking Notes: Bedrock Falls is the easier route, about a 20-minute walk from the cabin, family-friendly and great for kids. Exit Falls is the more adventurous option, with rope-assisted inclines and alternate route choices for those who want more of a challenge.
