Beautiful Mountain Home w/ Views + close to AT (#32889)

Asheville, North Carolina

Vacation Rental Description

The newly constructed lookout, situated atop the ridgeline of Sunrise Mountain, offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the valley of Spring Creek, North Carolina. The wrap-around deck and numerous windows offer countless vantage points of the scenery.  The sunrise over Duckett Top can be especially spectacular.

The lookout has a private and remote setting that is ideal for any occasion, yet is easily accessible. We are only 30 miles from Asheville, 22 miles from Waynesville, and 13 miles from Hot Springs all on state highways. 

Being so far from the city offers plenty of opportunities to see the wildlife and breathe the crisp mountain air. Common visitors to the cabin include turkey, deer, coyote, bobcat, and fox. If you're lucky, you might see a bear or mountain lion. Stargazing on a clear night can also be spectacular since the glow of city lights is miles away.
