Lakefront Life:
Capture the essence of lake life at this stunning new lakefront cabin nestled in the Nantahala National Forest on Queen’s Lake! This 3-bedroom, 2 1/2-bath vacation rental is well-appointed with sleeping arrangements for 8 guests, 2,000 sq ft of tastefully decorated living space, and a private deck with picturesque lake and mountain views.

Outdoor enthusiasts will love the proximity to an array of outdoor adventures like kayaking, swimming, and fishing on the lake, hikes through the Great Smoky Mountains, fly-fishing, white-water rafting excursions on the Nantahala or Tuckasegee Rivers, or day trips to Bryson City and Cherokee - all minutes away!

Our lake cabin offers unparalleled access to one of the cleanest lakes in the southeast, Queens Lake, with miles of pristine shoreline at an elevation just over 3,000 feet. Our cabin is nestled in the Great Smoky Mountains, a quiet oasis at the edge of the Nantahala National Forest. The beauty of the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains surrounds the lake and mountains.

The Queen’s Lake cabin is highlighted by a great room with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, stacked stone fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, a fully stocked wine fridge with 18 selections, and a wealth of large windows revealing lake and mountain views.
Step outside in the fresh mountain air and take in the views of the lush, lake and mountain surroundings! Your private outdoor oasis is complete with a grill, and cabin side and lakeside fire pits, perfect for s’mores and stargazing.
Relax on the sleeper sofa and oversize chairs in the open and airy great room. On chilly evenings, cozy up around the fireplace while movies stream on the flat-screen Satellite TV. When it's time to retire for the night, retreat to one of the three bedrooms for a restful night’s sleep.

The Location:
Queens Lake is a pure, crystal clear lake reservoir on Winding Stairs Road. The lake is a fish hatchery stocked with trout and bass annually. It’s shoreline has a handful of private homes and cabins, as much of the area around the lake is owned and managed by the U. S. Forest Service and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission.

A short 10 minute drive from the cabin you will find the Nantahala river that tumbles down a picturesque mountainside drive in spectacular cascades and waterfalls, along with rivers and streams for trout fishing and world-class river rafting and kayaking on the Nantahala River. You’ll be in great company for fishing or playing on the water in one of the summer’s hottest spots!



Outdoor adventures always await in the Great Smoky Mountains. Lace up your hiking boots and try out a portion of the Appalachian Trail or take a drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Nantahala Outdoor Center (NOC) is a beautiful 25 minute drive from the cabin and offers guided outdoor services, whitewater rafting excursions, zip lines, jeep tours, restaurants, and more! Channel your inner cyclist at the Tsali Recreation Area boasting numerous mountain biking trails for the thrill-seekers.
If you're up for a day in town, drive 35 minutes northeast to Bryson City! Spend the day browsing the shops, alive with art galleries, restaurants, train depot, and the Heritage Museum. Take a train ride on the Great Smoky Mountains Railways. While you're there, drive another 10 minutes to Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort to play the slots or bet on black, or spend the day at Santa’s Land Fun Park and Petting Zoo!

Beautiful cabin and area. Pictures and description were spot on. There was plenty of space for my family to spread out and I have 3 teenage boys so that is saying a lot. They enjoyed the lake and kayaks, didn't have any luck fishing but it wasn't for lack of trying. I appreciated the large kitchen with cabinet space for putting groceries away. We loved the quiet, out of town location, but still were able to drive to near by hikes, to the marina for a boat rental, and to NOC for mountain biking. We didn't have any trouble with the driveway, but a smaller car or SUV might. Just be aware. Our Expedition was fine even in the rain. We would love to come back.
