Rebekah's Cabin is in a beautiful and peaceful setting by a rushing whitewater trout creek. However, it is only 25-45 minutes to a number of great mountain towns. 25 minutes to Hot Springs, 35 minutes to Wayenesville and MaggieValley and just 45 minutes to Asheville. There are so many activities such as fishing, hiking, whitewater rafting, horseback riding and in winter there is skiing. For day trips you have the Biltmore Estate just 45 minutes away and the trendy town of Asheville with its many gallaries and shops. For hikers it is only 14 miles by car to the trailhead for Max Patch, a local mountain bald, which provides a spectacular panoramic view of the mountains of western NC and eastern TN and easy access to the Appalachian Trail. The hike from the parking lot to the top of the bald is less than 1/2 mile.
