About this property

Above the Clouds | Log Cabin, Hot Tub & Views!

"Above the Clouds" is nestled among 7 acres at the very top of Gateway Mountain. This authentic, three-level cabin is approximately 2,000 square feet, with stunning views from every room and the enchanting smell of pine throughout. Watching the lights come alive in the valley below and marveling at the colors of the mountains slowly changing as the sun sets will only further the feeling that there's no place like being "Above the Clouds."

About the Home
• Well-equipped kitchen with eat-in dining for 6, dishwasher, and two coffeemakers (Keurig and standard Drip-style).
• Impressive great room with floor-to-ceiling windows, a wood-burning stone fireplace, and a Smart TV.
• The main floor deck boasts a gas grill, lounge chairs, a picnic table, and a screened-in porch with a gas fire table.

Where to Unwind
• The main floor offers a primary bedroom with a king-size bed and en suite bathroom (shower and bathtub combination). A powder room is also located on the main floor.

PLAN TO ARRIVE DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS THE FIRST TIME. To get to this gorgeous cabin, you will have to navigate steep mountain roads with some twists and turns. The last part of the drive is a gravel road, so having a 4WD or AWD vehicle is REQUIRED. Getting there is part of the adventure!

Please note: No parking is allowed on roadways or at gate entrances. No RVs, boat trailers, camping trailers, or trailers of any kind are permitted in the Gateway Mountain Community.
