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.

Attention: Active Wildlife in the Area
Our area of WNC is currently experiencing increased wildlife activity, particularly from bears. While it’s a privilege to share our environment with these magnificent creatures, it’s essential that we all take precautions to ensure our safety and theirs.
Please follow these guidelines:
Secure all food and garbage: Bears are attracted to strong smells. Do not leave food in your car and reattach bungee cords to trash can lids every time.
Be aware of your surroundings: Stay alert, especially during dawn and dusk when wildlife is most active.
Avoid close encounters: If you see a bear or other wildlife, maintain a safe distance and do not approach.
Travel in groups: When possible, hike or explore with others, and make noise to alert animals of your presence. Keep dogs leashed at all times.
Your cooperation is crucial in maintaining a safe and harmonious environment for everyone. Thank you for your attention and care.
