About this property

The Scratching Post -- Upscale Cabin, Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Internet, and Dry Sauna

Pamper yourself at The Scratching Post. Relax in the dry sauna. Wrap yourself up in the seclusion of the Nantahala Forest.  Roast marshmallows around the fire pit. Cares drift away in the hot tub.

This luxury three story cabin is beautifully appointed with all the comforts of home.  The large kitchen and open layout with plenty of seating make for easy entertaining and family gatherings. 

3 Bedrooms,  2 Baths and 2 Half Baths: The First Bedroom has a King Bed.  The Second Bedroom has a Queen Bed.  The third bedroom has a Full over Full bunk bed. There is also a Queen Sleeper Sofa. One bathroom has a tub and shower combination.  The second bathroom has a shower stall. 

Warm yourselves in front of the fire or relax on the expansive deck and enjoy the sounds of nature.  The loft sitting room area is perfect for enjoying a favorite television show or movie, or quiet time with a great book.  

Bar-B-Que on the outdoor deck and enjoy dinner there year round with an outdoor heater.  Toast s'mores around the fire pit and then soothe away the day in the dry sauna or sparkling outdoor hot tub.
This cabin has a whole house generator. If the power goes of for more than a few miniutes it will come on.

Beautiful cabin and location
We were a party of four adults and 3 kids. The kids enjoyed the arcade game and the darts, and the adults enjoyed the hot tub, sauna, and fireplace. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed to make meals at the cabin, including cookie cutters!

Peaceful Getaway
The property is located in a very calm setting with no neighbors in sight. The amenities including the arcade, sauna and hot tub were a great addition to the beautiful view. The entry road and driveway are very steep so be careful while driving to and from the property. The kitchen was fully equipped.
