The Junction-backwoods tiny home on brook trout stream with mountain ridge view

We're open-Hurricane Helen spared our county!

Are the backwoods calling? Travel on uneven gravel & dirt to arrive at this tiny home and unique setting. 400 sq ft cabin overlooks two boulder filled creeks plus a mountain ridge view! 2 mi from paved road w/shallow potholes & rocks. 5" clearance (not 4WD) needed. NOT suitable for motorcycles. (Charging EV batteries not allowed. Venomous snakes and wild animals live in the woods) Use ONLY our directions and you'll enjoy the adventure getting here!

Logging days of the past used the creeks to harvest timber. Now their roads bring you to this little cabin with lots of white noise. Bring your pole as it's home to wild brook trout or hatchery supported downstream.

Country décor shows logging history in this well-equipped 400 sq ft cabin. Relax on the deck or take a nap in the covered porch. Walk your own private trail that leads to the creek-side deck.

The Nantahala National Forest is our backyard and playground. Bring your outdoor gear for adventure right outside your door. Come "tame the dragon", ride the "Cherohala Skyway" or "hug" a tree at Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest.

"It was hard to leave" is the best compliment we get! We hope to hear from ya!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. Conveniences include a phone, as well as a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Featured amenities include express check-in and express check-out.

Absolutely breathtaking! Relaxation and beauty at its finest. Perfectly appointed, this cabin is one of the best VRBO's we have ever spent time in! The sound of the creek lulled us into a tranquil state. The majestic trees surrounding the cabin made it feel like we were spending the night in a tree house.

Awesome, simply awesome...

If you like seclusion, outdoors, wildlife, streams, fishing and connecting with yourself this is the place. We stayed Sun to Sun and only left once. It was spectacular. I fished a couple times a day and caught fish. The cabin was clean and well supplied and amenities were perfect. Thank you Alice and Doug for a vacation to remember.

Best rental ever

We have to say this has to be the most well equipped and cleanest rental we have ever stayed in, not to mention the most accommodating hosts, Alice and Doug. We caught trout right out the back and only wish we could have extended our stay longer.

The cabin was perfect for us. We were shocked right away how big it was, especially the deck outside. It was a great, peaceful place to slow down for a few days. It was also close enough for us to go hike in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park as well as other nearby sites and attractions. My wife and I weren’t as prepared as normal for our trip. Good thing we booked through Alice! I think she was the most organized host we’ve had. Her information and directions sent beforehand were great, and additional information in the cabin helped us plan out our empty days. Thanks so much for a perfect getaway! Would gladly return.

Almost Heaven, NC mountains/creeks!

“The Junction” is a cute, immaculate tiny house located above the junction of two beautiful mountain creeks. If an escape to nature’s best is what you are looking for, then here it is! Serenity engulfs you on the front porch, interrupted by the relaxing flow of the creek below. The owners, Alice and Doug, are gracious hosts. Give them a call.

If you’re looking to unplug and getaway this the place! Everything about the location of this property is so peaceful. The owner’s have maintained this cabin beautifully and I feel like they go above and beyond to make sure their guests have everything they need! I have never stayed in a cabin that had a kitchen that was so well stocked. This was an overall great experience for my husband and I! We hope to be back. Thank you Alice & Doug!

A Piece of Heaven, Literally

My husband and I stayed here as a getaway for my birthday and we could not have asked for a better location, cabin, and host. We had an amazing amount of privacy, and the creek below provides a beautiful 24/7 sound bath. Alice is an absolute gem of a host, and it’s obvious just how much pride she and Doug take in making sure this cabin remains clean and in beautiful condition. The cabin provides absolutely everything you need (except groceries, of course). We were lucky to have found this place and we would absolutely LOVE to come back and enjoy The Junction again and again. Thank you for making my birthday so special, Alice and Doug!!!!

Perfect getaway for trout fishing

My son and I visited so he could fish the nearby trout streams. The location couldn’t have been more perfect. It was very serene and tranquil, away from everything. The house was super clean and cutely decorated and equipped with all comforts of home. The bed was extremely comfortable and they were plenty of places to sit and relax. We really appreciated all of the small touches and loved the chocolate chip muffins! My son had great success fishing in the stream right outside of the house. We will definitely be back to the area and hope to stay here again.
