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!

My wife and I stayed at the Junction for three days, next time we will stay longer. We really enjoyed this cabin and the beautiful location. It is exactly what we were looking for and more. The sound of the river was so relaxing and the little cabin was more than enough for my wife and I. We will be coming back very soon.

We loved our stay at The Junction! Such beautiful scenery and an adorable home…kitchen was fully equipped and home was very clean. We got a late start and got there in the dark which I WOULD NOT recommend; Host gave such detailed directions that we had no problem though. If you want to get away from everything in a beautiful, natural environment, this place is for you!

I've stayed in more places than I can count, but none have ever held me the way The Junction did. The listing calls it a tiny home, the photos are honest, yet they still fail to capture the magic. This off-grid cabin, tucked at the confluence of two creeks in the Snowbird Backcountry, is pure wonder. Getting there is an adventure in itself made all the more special by the detailed pre-trip emails and directions that made it seamless. From the first message to the last, her care was extraordinary. There were so many surprises when you stepped inside. I won't spoil it for future guests but I've never felt so welcome at a VRBO! Just a few things I can mention: A basket filled with maps, brochures, her notes on each, and DVD's of locally filmed movies all added so much to the trip. Fresh branches of fall colors stood in vases like the forest had walked inside to keep us company. And then the wall: a framed letter from the owner, telling the land's own story. Logging operations that once thundered across these creeks. The Trail of Tears that ghosted through this soil. Old photos, rusted relics, her reverence for the land permeated the cabin. The Junction earned it's name honestly.Spotless, cozy, thoughtfully stocked, and wrapped in a history you can touch. Four nights felt like 4 weeks of soul-resetting. And 5 stars feels too small. This isn't a rental; it's a gift. Thank you for sharing your slice of backcountry with us. We left renewed and hope to come back some day.

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!

We stay at cabins all around TN and NC and this is definitely at the top of the list. Description is completely accurate and it was fully stocked with anything you might need such as all kitchen items, bathroom items, etc. Very peaceful and a perfect spot to "unplug".

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.

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.
