Beautiful Log Home in the Smoky Mountains close to EVERYTHING! 4800sq ft log home on a beautiful 2 acre lot in Tobacco Branch Village! Big open floor plan with large kitchen, dining, and family room. Just added a huge playroom/2nd family room with shuffleboard table and arcade games. Whiskey Barrel table and chairs for more dining , more comfy couches and tv. Great for relaxing, or playing family games. Upstairs has 2 very large bedrooms, a bathroom, and loft/office area with a brand new Queen sofa bed. All mattresses and most furniture are brand new. Also has a large fire pit area to make smore's or just sit around and enjoy the beauty that surrounds you! There is a small fishing/swimming spring fed lake right down the road from the house in the community also. This is a very family friendly oriented place, that is very private yet close to all kinds of fun things to do. The NOC "Nantahala Outdoor Center is about 15 minutes away where you can go white water rafting, zip lining, kayaking, or just sit and enjoy watching all the action. There are also 2 restaurants, a playground area for kids, and it is very family friendly! The Harrah's Casino in Cherokee is about 20 minutes from the house. It also offers a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse and a Brio Restaurant inside the Casino. There is boat rentals on Lake Fontana 5 minutes down the road. Mountain biking at Tsali Trails is 5 mins away. Bryson City is only 15 minutes away and has numerous shops, restaurants, breweries, Darnell Farms, and the train to enjoy also. There is also tubing down the rapids which is a blast! There is also the Smoky Mountain Railroad if you're interested in a train ride. Unplugged is a fun place on the weekends they offer live music, Anthony's is great for pizza, and if you're in the mood for Mexican, 4 Queens is the place! Ingles is the grocery store in town and will have everything you need. We also have a Dollar General less than 10 mins from the house for essentials or a last minute snack. I've been coming here since I was a child and I'm 60 now. This is the best getaway to make awesome family memories and most of all get away from the hustle and bustle of the city life and just RELAX!! This is our 2nd home not just a rental. It feels like you are home here... Very well appointed with EVERYTHING you need to be comfortable! If there is work involved, there are 2 offices where you can set up and have your workspace also. Our flat, very large driveway will fit numerous cars, or a trailer for your bikes. Very easy access in and out. I am available for any questions you may have as far as restaurants, or things to do and where. I hope you will make lots of great family memories like we have while staying at The Sansquatch Inn!!
