A pleasant wilderness retreat awaits you and yours at these Horse Shoe, North Carolina cabins! As soon as you step inside the main cabin, the rustic ambiance will have you feeling right at home. Cozy up in front of the living room's wood-burning fireplace before utilizing the well-equipped kitchen to prepare something tasty. After you've indulged your cravings, gather around one of the tables for a board game night or a round of cards. The second cabin displays a studio living space with a full bathroom, electric fireplace, and kitchenette with a microwave, coffee pot, and mini fridge.

The bedrooms are equally inviting, full of light, warm wood finishes, and high-quality linens. Modern conveniences like central air-conditioning, a private washer/dryer, and children's items like a Pack-N-Play ensure all of your daily routines will come with ease.

Outside, embark on your greatest adventure as you explore Mills River Park, Fireside Golf Range, Walnut Cove Overlook, Lake Powhatan, and Wash Creek Valley Overlook. Further up the road, thrilling winter recreation opportunities can be achieved at the Cataloochee Ski Area. Under the starry night sky, gather around the firepit's warmth for s'mores and campfire stories.
