About This Home

LOG CABIN • MAIN-LEVEL PRIMARY SUITE • MOUNTAIN VIEWS • DESIGNER STONE FIRE PIT •

This updated 3-bedroom, 2½-bath log cabin combines classic mountain character with comfortable modern updates. At 3,180 feet elevation, it offers mountain views, a vaulted great room, a main-level primary suite, covered porch, open grilling deck, basement garage, and a beautifully designed stone fire-pit area. Vacation rentals are allowed in Hemlock Forest.

THE GREAT ROOM

The vaulted great room is the heart of the cabin, with the comfortable seating, kitchen and dining areas arranged around the fireplace. Large vaulted windows bring in natural light and frame the surrounding mountain greenery. The kitchen has been updated with solid-wood cabinetry, butcher-block countertops, farm sink, bracketed by open shelving, and stainless-steel appliances. A convenient half bath with a laundry area are located just off the great room.

MAIN-LEVEL PRIMARY SUITE

The primary bedroom suite is conveniently located on the main level, along with the primary living areas. The updated bath features a double vanity and tile accents surrounding the tub.

UPPER-LEVEL BEDROOMS

Two additional bedrooms and a full bath with shower are located upstairs, providing comfortable space for family, guests, or vacation renters.

LOWER LEVEL & GARAGE

The lower level offers a spacious game room with room for a billiards table, plus a flexible entry area connecting to the attached garage. This level provides useful space for recreation, storage, and coming and going from the home.

OUTDOOR LIVING

Step outside to enjoy the mountain setting from the covered porch or open grilling deck. The side yard extends to an inviting stone-lined fire-pit area surrounded by stone accent walls—a distinctive space for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying cool mountain evenings.

CABIN CHARACTER

The home retains the details that make a true log cabin special: peeled-log timbers, exposed beams, tongue-and-groove vaulted ceilings, rustic stairway steps, distinctive light fixtures, mountain views from the bedrooms, and even carved bears climbing the screened door. These touches give the home authentic mountain character.

RENTAL & INTERNET

Vacation rentals are allowed, offering the opportunity to use the cabin as a personal mountain getaway while also sharing it with guests. High-speed Spectrum Internet makes it convenient to work from home, stream entertainment, and stay connected.

MAGGIE VALLEY LOCATION

Located in Maggie Valley, a gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Blue Ridge Parkway, the cabin is close to outdoor recreation, dining, local shops, crafts, winter skiing and tubing, and area attractions including Harrah's Cherokee Casino. Historic downtown Waynesville, major shopping, and grocery stores are nearby, while Asheville is approximately 30 minutes away via I-40. Asheville Regional Airport is about an hour away, making travel to and from the mountains convenient.
