About this property

River Road Hideout PRIVATE RIVER ACCESS! Pet friendly

Welcome to Tellico Plains! Tucked away on the side of Bullet Mountain, you will find our log cabin which was custom built in 2015 and situated on 10 wooded acres. This cabin served as our primary residence until 2020, when we bought additional property and made the difficult decision to leave our beloved cabin on the mountain. Now, we want to share this experience with you, and hope you enjoy your time at the cabin as much as we did! Motorcycle and Angler friendly!

Beginning May 8th you will have private access to the Tellico River via our farm across the road. Take a dip and cool off or go wet a line just 300 yards from your front door!

Perfect Place

I was visiting Tellico Plains for a fishing trip. This cabin was the perfect location to get into town and to access the Cherokee National Forest. The hosts were accommodating and easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again.

The photos of this beautiful cabin do not do it justice. This cabin was definitely built with love and has so much character. The hosts were very hospitable and communicated quickly. I would have loved to stay longer. From coffee on the front porch, hearing the owls and nature and grilling out on the porch - this cabin was the perfect getaway for me and my children. Walking to the private swimming area was a little hard because of the hill but well worth it. We will definitely be back to enjoy the cabin again. Highly recommend staying in this slice of heaven on earth!!!

About the host

Hosted by Lisa L Hertz

Host profile image
Hello! We are James and Lisa Hertz, a husband and wife with two goofy dogs. We love this Cabin and all East Tennessee has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We built this custom log cabin in 2015, and it served as our primary residence until recently. We purchased more land and another home, and couldn't bare the thought of selling our first home together, and decided to offer it for others to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

Unlike some "cabins" in this area, this is an actual custom built log home, situated on 10 acres, as opposed to a prefabricated building that has been finished out. We are minutes from the Cherohala Skyway, the Tellico River, and the Cherokee National Forest, and a few miles from Bald River Falls. Hiking trails are abundant in the area for outdoor enthusiasts. We are motorcycle, angler and pet friendly. Come see all East Tennessee has to offer or just hang out and enjoy quiet time around the fire pit or playing cornhole!
