About this property

Juke Cabin is great place to relax or be adventurous in the mountains of western North Carolina. Our porch offers an incredible view where you can relax on the outdoor sofa or rock in the rocking chairs. The porch is kid/dog friendly with a gate enclosure to prevent sneaking off! Meals can be enjoyed on the porch table or inside on the dining room table. Enjoy the indoor fireplace on a chilly night or outside at the firepit on summer evenings. The kitchen has been fully renovated with all new appliances and granite countertops. The kitchen cabinets an antique "wormy chestnut" that were made locally over 50 years ago and have been restored to maintain the mountaintop cabin feel.

Juke Cabin is centrally located between Cherokee and Asheville, North Carolina. Hiking can be done nearby in the Great Smokey Mountains or Blue Ridge Parkway. Countless waterfalls are located nearby including Dry Falls, Mingo Falls, Looking Glass Falls, High Falls, Turtleback Fall and Rainbow Falls. Visit nearby Dillsboro or Sylva to grab a meal or drink at a local brewery after shopping at the local artist galleries. Jump on the train in Dillsboro and ride it through the Great Smokey Mountains to Bryson City. Visit nearby Cherokee, NC where you can visit the Cherokee Indian Village, see elk, watch the play Unto These Hills (an outdoor drama retailing the Trail of Tears), or try your luck at Harrah's Cherokee Casino. Take a day trip exploring the Great Smokey Mountains and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Kayaking, tubing and white water rafting are just a short trip down the mountain in Dillsboro or in Bryson City. Ziplining is a fun adventure close to Juke Cabin too. There are several gem mining locations nearby that is always fun for the kids. Asheville is just an hour away. We are happy to offer suggestions on things to do that involve kids, dogs, grandparents or families.

Or, just sit on the porch with a glass of wine or cup of coffee while enjoying the view to recharge your batteries!

We have enjoyed our cabin for over 16 years with babies, kids, teenagers, grandparents and dogs. We can offer a variety of suggestions on places to see, visit, eat and hike for any age group - with our without dogs too!

Loved our stay

I chose this for the Mountain View, and it fulfilled that expectation perfectly. The porch is awesome filled with comfy furniture to relax and enjoy the view. I liked the privacy and the serenity of the location. The host is very responsive and helpful. We only went out to eat one day during our stay and enjoyed cooking in the kitchen, using the grill, and eating at the table with the gorgeous views. Beyond that, I loved this section of North Carolina. We will definitely be coming back next year. Lots of hiking and waterfalls in the surrounding area. The Great Smokey Mountain Railroad in Bryson is easy to get to and well worth the ride to the Nantahala Gorge.

Serene and peaceful

Juke Cabin is perfect! From the scenic drive up the mountain to our welcoming arrival at the cabin. The cabin is updated with beautiful features. The bathrooms and kitchen were immaculately clean. The king size bed was very comfortable! Deck view and surroundings were breathtaking. We didn’t want to leave! Plenty of firewood for both inside and exterior fire pit. We will definitely come back to this cute gem. Michelle, our host was very accommodating and easy to reach. Thank you for our wonderful weekend getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Munson

Welcome to Juke Cabin. Our family has been enjoying our mountain retreat for 14 years. Our kids and dogs have countless memories of spending time relaxing on the back porch, waterfalls, tubing, ziplining, picnics, hikes, gem mining... This list goes on and on. I am very happy to share suggestions on things to do for kids, families, couples and dogs. We are a dog friendly cabin.

Why they chose this property

We have done our best to provide a mountain cabin with modern features. Since we are located at the top of a mountain, our TV and internet are provided by satellite. Our kitchen has been fully updated to include granite countertops, new sink and faucet, stove and oven with air frying, microwave and refrigerator. The "wormy chestnut" cabinets were restored and are original to the cabin. We have an AC unit in the loft that cools the cabin. Since we are at the top of the mountain, the temperature is 10-15 degrees cooler than at the bottom of the mountain. We recently updated the flooring and provided a full-size ping-pong table in the basement.

We provide plenty of firewood for the fireplace and outdoor firepit! The porch is where most people spend their time. Take your pick of the outdoor sofa, chair, rocking chairs or dining table to unwind while enjoying the view. We have gated the porch so little ones and pups can't escape!

What makes this property unique

MOUNTAIN TOP VIEWS! We are centrally located between Cherokee and Asheville at the top of the mountain with an amazing view. We are situated between the Great Smokey Mountains National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Waterfalls, hiking trails, whitewater rafting, tubing, elk, gem mining, shopping, breweries and restaurants are all located nearby. We are happy to share suggestions for our guest based on your needs - that includes kid and pet friendly adventures!
