About this property

Fontana View 2 - Open Floor-plan with Two Master Suites

Fontana View 2 was built with yellow cedar and Douglas fir logs, all hand-crafted in Canada for a perfect fit. The cabin features almost 1700 sq ft of living space with an open floor plan, large windows, two master suites, a separate kids area, and a ridgetop location that borders hiking trails of the US Forest Service. This cabin also enjoys one of our top views.

Cabin Layout

Kitchen
Your kitchen comes with granite countertops, all new, stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, microwave, and coffee maker. The gas range and stainless vent hood make this one of what we call our "chef's kitchens" because you will undoubtedly agree this is so much more than just a rental-caliber kitchen. We are committed to making your stay as close to like being "at home" as we can, so in addition to only the essential dishes, utensils, and cooking tools you'll need, we have provided some extras that will surprise you... right down to kabob skewers. Of course, a gas grill is included for BBQ connoisseurs (full propane tank attached with spare).

Great Room
The great room features a large living and dining area with a table suitable for seating 6. There's also a counter that will seat three if needed. The mountain-modern decor features a leather sofa and loveseat, hardwood floors, log-accented interiors, and a towering stone fireplace that passes through into the rec room. The main floor also features a high-definition flat-screen TV (equipped with DirecTV) and high fidelity sound system (bring your own music or listen to dozens of digital music channels provided by digital satellite).

The pool table in the adjacent rec room is surrounded by huge windows allowing you to enjoy the great outdoors and opens directly to the front or back patios. Just behind the cabin is a boardwalk deck leading you up into the trees where the firepit and hot tub are perched slightly elevated for full enjoyment of the long-range view beyond the cabin.

Main Floor
The rec room has a tastefully appointed set of bunk beds integrated into the design. Each bunk has a twin bed with luxury linens and towels.

Second Floor
Two king master suites equipped with down comforters and luxury linens.
Each bedroom has a small balcony porch and window viewing the front mountain view. Attached is an incredible en-suite bathroom that features a shower stall and a garden tub. Enjoy a vast picture window looking towards the rear of the cabin, which is hundreds of acres of forest. Winter visitors will even enjoy the heated tile flooring in the bathrooms.

Housekeeping / Hot Tub / Amenities Fee added to all reservations for this unit: $150

This cabin is pet friendly with a $65 non-refundable fee (First pet $65, $45 for additional pet. 2 pet maximum) Dogs only!

Google Maps Correction
Please note that the Google Map provided to us is not entirely accurate. The USFS road called "Horse Branch" (visible if you zoom in closely) is non-vehicular, so it is excellent for hiking and biking. The map shows it connecting to and terminating at Birch Rd, which is incorrect. Horse Branch Trail actually will lead you down to highway 28N and ends about 100 yards north of the entrance to the Tsali Recreation Area. Thus, you can ride your mountain bike to the Tsali trails directly from this cabin.

Pet Policy

We must know in advance if you are bringing a pet. There is a $45 charge per pet, for up to two pets. We allow more than two pets only on a case-by-case basis. By bringing a pet, you agree to the terms of our complete Pet Agreement, which provides very specific rules for pets including: no pets on furniture (including beds and sofas), unattended pets in the cabin must be crated, and many other strict requirements. If we find evidence of pets on furniture, you will be charged $100. If we find evidence of pets damaging the property, including using the bathroom in unit, you will be charged $200. The Pet Agreement also provides that pets brought without advance notice will be charged $250 plus the normal pet fee. Pets brought to cabins that do NOT allow pets can result in immediate eviction with forfeiture of remaining paid stay.

Great Rental
Have stayed at several rentals in the area, but none I would rent a second time. I’d come back to this one every year, though. Thanks for a wonderful vacation stay.

We loved our stay here! The house had gorgeous views. The fireplace was beautiful. We spent a ton of time in the hot tub which also had amazing views.

Peaceful Getaway
We had a lovely stay at this mountain resort and loved the location. It was peaceful and relaxing. The view is absolutely stunning and we could have stayed on the porch the entire time. We did drive into Bryson City a few times and enjoyed the small town. The drive up wasn’t made very clear in the listing. It’s winding and steep…a truck is your best best to get to the place…cars will work, but I could imagine it would be difficult in heavy rain or winter conditions. The only complaints I had was the mattress could use updating, the upstairs bedrooms seemed to be stuffy at night, and the hot tub cover had a nest of fire ants. Overall, the place was wonderful and I would stay again…I gave it 5 stars overall. You should definitely try this place.

Enjoyable
The property was nice but you can tell it was not someone's weekend home.....it was definitely a rental company. There were several things that were not maintained well. That being said, it was a wonderful time with amazing views. Very comfortable beds and a great location for outdoor activities. I would recommend this place with the understanding that it is in a rental pool and not a personal residence.
