About this property

Your Home Away From Home

Beautiful mountain views from this gorgeous 3-story log cabin where you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the Nantahala Forest from its wrap-around porch, where you can unwind and relax grab a drink and enjoy a quiet evening by the gas fire-pit, or cozy up by the wood-burning fireplace in the main living room, on those chilly days. You can have it all at Baloo's Mountain Cabin.

Very well equipped for your needs
We enjoyed our visit very much. The mountains out the window, the fireplace ( we bought starters), and they did have other things to use which we just did not have time for like the grill and downstairs recreation area. Beds were comfortable and you really felt like you were into cabinet life. It’s very convenient to the highway so that you can have a view of the mountains without having to drive up high to see it. Not being current with all the latest TV choices like Netflix, Hulu, peacock,etc. we be did not use the TV.

Beautiful cabin
We loved everything about this cabin. It is absolutely beautiful inside and out. We’re already wanting to book it again for our next vacation. The owners really take time to make sure it’s an enjoyable stay.
