Photos and Description of the Hot Springs vacation cabin rental
Cabin, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 11-15)

Lonesome Pine Lodge is an old, hand-hewn log cabin, high up in the Smoky Mountains inside the Cherokee National Forest. With 2200 sq ft and enough beds to sleep 15 people, Lonesome Pine Lodge is perfect for a large family getaway or small reunion.

Under the covered front porch (with lovely cypress furniture) or wrap around deck you can sit and listen to the constant flow of Upper Paint Creek, which runs the width of the three acre property. The famous Appalachian Trail (AT) is located on a ridge just across the road.

Go for a day hike on the AT. Have a picnic on top of Camp Creek Bald. Fish for trout in the creek out front. Go whitewater rafting on the French Broad River. Head to historic Greeneville Tennessee and hunt for antiques. Most of all, RELAX!

Although the cabin is rustic, it has all of the amenities of home; a large, fully stocked kitchen, washer and dryer, linens, towels, wood stove, gas fireplace, 6 brand new 5 blade Hunter ceiling fans, gas/charcoal/smoker combination grill, and even a 50” High Definition Plasma TV with 7.1 surround sound for those cold or rainy days. All of this in a spacious, clean cabin decorated with numerous Bev Doolittle prints and many pieces of antique furniture.

About Alan

Although I’ve lived all over the southeast, I’ve spent the last 25 years living in and around the Orlando area. When I was a kid, my grandparents had a summer home in Lake Toxaway, NC that we used to visit every year. That is where I fell in love with the mountains. I’ve always been the outdoor adventure type and that, coupled with my experiences as a youngster, has made owning a cabin in the mountains a lifelong dream. Though I’ve never actually lived there, when I drive up to the Smokies, it feels like I'm coming home.

Alan purchased this cabin in 2008
Why Alan chose Hot Springs

One of the driving forces behind my purchase of this cabin is its close proximity to the Appalachian Trail. I’ve hiked numerous sections of the AT, and this area is one of my favorites. It is the perfect jumping off point for all kinds of outdoor activities. Whether it’s fly fishing Little Laurel Creek (2 miles), kayaking the Nolichucky (9 miles), hiking the AT ( 1 mile), bouldering at Blackstack Cliffs (8 miles), biking the Paint Creek Trails (7 miles), or having a picnic at 4400’ in Jones Meadow (7 miles), adventure is just out the back door.

What makes this cabin unique

The cabin is situated nearly halfway between the quaint mountain town of Hot Springs, NC (15 miles) and the historic town of Greeneville, TN (18 miles). Although both offer adventure, relaxation, history, and culture, the best thing about Lonesome Pine Lodge is the fact that you don’t even have to get in your car to find something to do. Fish for trout in the creek that runs through the front yard, go for a day hike on the AT, bike along Paint Creek up Viking Mountain Road, or grill out on the deck and enjoy the cool, clean mountain air. On a clear night, walk out the garage and look at the sky, it’s spectacular.

Beautiful place

After we got over the initial experience of not being contacted about how to get there and the process of checking in, our stay there was very nice. It is a beautiful place. We did wish there was cell service but we dealt with that by taking a calling card.
We would like to stay again sometime.

This cabin was perfect for our group of friends. We are all active and enjoyed being able to access the AT without getting into a car. A few of us were ambitious enough to make the hike from the cabin all the way into Hot Springs and it was a fantastic way to spend a day. The cabin is comfortable and well appointed, with everything one could need for a weekend away.

Spent the last three nights at your cabin. I want to buy it! : -) Loved it all so much - such a perfect getaway - no phones, no internet - just a short ride away to the zipline adventure Navitat - it was PERFECT! Loved having the ability to do the laundry the night before we came home - bringing home CLEAN laundry! The beds were so comfy. I thought the water was awesome for a cabin in the woods! We had no issue with bugs or anything - the fall colors were coming out beautifully. You are so fortunate to own such a lovely piece of property. We'll be back again and again. : -)

Arrived at Lonesome Pine Lodge on 10/5/12 for a couple days with great friends.... I was in love from the moment we pulled in the drive.... if you and yours are looking for a great place in the mountains of TN/NC this is the place! all the comforts of home, no need to bring a thing but your clothes! There is a full grocery store not far from the cabin with resonable prices (Ingles) or do as we did and bring your own stuff.... the place is just beautiful and you really can't get the full effect from the photos. The creek that runs in front of the cabin, provides the most wonderful peaceful melody, just open your windows and listen to the peaceful sounds of nature! The Appalachian Trail is a short walk from the cabin itself... although we missed it on Saturday (LOL) but that's what happens when you get a bunch of directionally challenged peeps just enjoying the beauty around them and not paying attention to the markers... we still enjoyed a beautiful 2 hour hike (we actually found the AT on our way back)... We then headed about an hour away to Barndardsville NC to Zipline at Navitat THIS is also an experience you don't wanna miss! Sunday we drove into the Blue Mountain Outfitters and they shuttled us up to the top of a part of the AT and we spent 4 hours hiking back down and into town.... WOW the views were just outstanding, and the folks at Blue Mountain Outiftters were so helpful to our group of non-hikers (just be careful of the driver that takes you up... WHEW sweet man but good golly he drives them mountains like a Nascar driver LOL - I swear I felt G forces) - we truly loved this place and hope we can return again this year, but if not our group is already making plans for next year, and we plan to bring others with us.... truly enough room for your family.... downstairs room as a double and a twin and rollout cot, upstairs one room has a double, the other has two doubles, the other has two twins, and while we didn't need it, I believe the sofa pulls out too... I seriously did NOT want to leave and next year instead of just a long weekend, our group plans to spend at least a week... we even had a nice visit with the neighbor girl Ms. Caitlyn, what a sweet outgoing young lady as was her friend.... they just stopped by to say hello and introduce themselves, very charming young ladies....

My family, which included in-laws, stayed for a week and it was a very relaxing week at that. The cabin was nice and big, easy for my husband, who is disabled, to get around in. My daughter, her friend and my grandson spent alot of time in the creek in front of the house, exploring the surronding area on foot and the bikes that were in the garage. We also took advantage of the Hiking trail near the house. I personnaly enjoyed the quiet mornings with a cup of coffee on the porch listening to the water in the creek. It was nice having the fire pit so we could make smores. My grandson had never had one before. The nearest town was not that far away so if we needed something it was no problem.
We made a trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway to hike some of those trails too. Which we had not done in along time, so it was nice that we were not that far from it.
We didn't want to leave. Everyone one in the surronding area was so nice and always waved to acknowedge you. Where I come from they just don't do that anymore.

Thanks for our welcome packet it was really fun and informative to read and we look forward to returning next year. I will suggest to all my friends to visit this little piece of country heaven.
