“At Last - Above the Clouds” sets high on a mountain side with breathtaking views of the Nantahala Gorge and Great Smoky Mountain National Park. You can see Clingman’s Dome from the deck and hot tub. You can hear and see the Great Smoky Mountain train from the deck.

The log cabin has a fully fenced side yard for your dogs and a five person hot tub for watching the stars at night and mountains by day. It is all about location, privacy and easy access to all the remarkable venues located in Western North Carolina / Tennessee Smoky Mountains and the Bryson City Great Smoky Mountain Train Railway system.

Awaken in the primary bedroom to breathtaking views of the Smoky Mountains. You can actually see the awesome views from your queen size bed. The guest bedroom has two twin size beds that can be converted to a king size bed at your request if needed. The cabin has one full bath with a shower / tub combination. Each bedroom has its own rocking chair for your private times to relax and read or look out at the spectacular scenery.

The kitchen area seats five adults and the living room is comfortably arranged with a queen sleeper sofa, rocking chair and accent chair for your family or friends. The kitchen is fully stocked for any cook’s expectations for meal preparation. The living room has a gas log fireplace for sitting by a cozy fire and additional ambience for romantic occasions.

There is a screened in porch facing the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This area has a porch swing with four additional gliding rockers to enjoy the sounds of nature without the nuisance of insects. Outside the screened porch is a massive deck area to sit and enjoy the countless views of the Smoky Mountains, Fontana Lake, Nantahala Gorge and Clingman's Dome. The deck area has a gas grill for outdoor grilling and a picnic table for outdoor dining.

The cabin can be reached through out the year via the paved road off Highway 74 / 19 and is easily accessible by car. The road is paved directly to your cabin door. I cannot emphasize how important this was to my husband and I to be able to bring our guest, family and friends to a cabin that can be reached year round and for individuals with limited mobility constraints. Our family also consist of five rescue dogs that needed a fenced in yard for their vacation needs. We can now relax on the deck and watch them run and play without any concern for their safety. In season, you can see the Great Smoky Mountain Polar Express and hear the train whistle. I highly recommend anyone to include this in your vacation plans. We are about seven miles from the train station in Bryson City.

The cabin has high speed internet and a smart tv with access to news and your favorite channels and internet platforms such as Netflix, Prime Video and YouTube. You are also able to access your cellular phone data and make calls or texts from the cabin which was really important to me. I wish I could be more descriptive regarding this fabulous location but if you are interested in spectaculer views, hiking, fishing or whitewater rafting, this is your best location.

All of our vacation rentals are dog friendly. There are no size or number restrictions for your fur babies. Only dogs are accepted due to guest’s allergy concerns at our venues. We do require a non-refundable pet fee so we can properly clean and replace rugs and linens as needed between stays. The non-refundable fee is $75.00 for one to two dogs for your entire stay and $150.00 for three or more dogs for the entire stay. Just make sure you click on the “pets icon” with VRBO to add that fee in as needed. “At Last - Above the Clouds” has the unique feature that I could not find for my pets and that was a totally fenced in yard for the safety of children and pets. The deck can also be closed with a retractable gate so children and pets can safely play. I have been a premier partner with all my VRBO vacation rentals since 2016 with my Panama City Beach House - “Anchors Away Beach House” (1040394) and my Mississippi Bed and Breakfast Cottage - “Long Leaf Cottage” (884716) which means you get exceptional quality every stay. I wanted to add the perfect North Carolina vacation cabin and I searched for years to find this cabin we purchased in 2022. We have the absolute best house keeper and care taker in North Carolina and Tennessee that is just minutes away if needed and I am just a text or phone call away if you need any questions answered. I hope you will enjoy this side of heaven as much as we have since our adventure began in 2016. All my best, Jo. (John 3:16)
