The lodge impresses with its beautiful setting and attention to detail, like bear-shaped drawer handles. Friendly staff quickly resolved my check-in issue, and the overall cleanliness and well-equipped kitchen made my stay enjoyable. However, the beds could use more comfort for a perfect experience.

Families seeking a memorable stay

We made some great memories around the fire pit roasting s'mores each night, and the kids loved the cornhole setup right outside our room. The fully stocked kitchenette let us prepare breakfast, and we enjoyed coffee on the porch while listening to the creek nearby.

It wasn't exactly a bargain but definitely worth the cost.

can recommend for a brief stop-in

Cozy apartment, family-friendly space, made our stay enjoyable with amenities like a fire pit for s’mores and accommodating staff for our infant. The location was perfect for exploring with the nearest airport just 63 km away.

Totally satisfied

Spotless stay with beautiful views

I loved the charming cabin-themed decor and the comfortable beds that made our stay so enjoyable. The apartment was well-furnished, incredibly clean, and offered stunning mountain views from the front porch. Relaxing in the outdoor areas was a highlight, but I would appreciate more seating options out there.

We were blown away by the cozy cabin-like atmosphere and the thoughtful touches like s’mores kits and BBQ grills. The fire pits were a great spot for evening gatherings! It's a delightful gem in the mountains, and I'd go back anytime.

Stunning mountain views from the apartment.

The steep incline from the parking area is ridiculous. I can't believe how difficult it was to get to our room, especially at night. The setup of the efficiency kitchen being in the bathroom is just absurd—never experienced that before.

perfect spot for exploring nearby parks and charming attractions

I recently stayed for one night in a cozy mountain view apartment where I loved the delightful log cabin decor and found myself just a stroll away from the scenic Nantahala Outdoor Center and beautiful picnic areas, making my weekend trip a true delight as I enjoyed walking through the stunning surroundings and soaking up the views.

gorgeous surroundings, charming outdoor areas, thoughtful amenities

The steep walk to the lodge could be improved for easier access!!! More seating options in outdoor areas would enhance comfort and relaxation!!!

The Lodge has a charming cabin-themed decor with delightful little bear-shaped drawer handles and easy access around the property. The cozy outdoor areas were a perfect retreat for relaxation, making my stay peaceful and enjoyable.

Need more seating options in outdoor areas.

the only downside was the need for more seating outside (especially during evenings) the decor was super charming with the bear-shaped drawer handles and the kitchenette was a great surprise everything was so clean and well maintained
