This large, open floor plan cabin is perfect for family gatherings but is also great for a romantic get-away for two. The cabin sleeps 8 adults very comfortably. Maximum occupancy (total number of persons staying in or using the premises at any time) of 8 persons, any combination of adults and children. There is plenty of room to set up our full-size commercial crib and/or any portable sleepers you bring.
The master bedroom upstairs has a KING size bed & GAS FIREPLACE. The two guest bedrooms upstairs each have a queen size bed. There is a private sleep area downstairs with a queen size bed. Four beds total, one king and three queen size. If additional sleeping space is needed, there is a queen size leather fold out sofa downstairs (making 5 beds total) and a commercial size wooden crib for a baby (mattress, protector and sheets provided). There is plenty of room in any of the three bedrooms upstairs or in the downstairs area to set up the commercial size crib we provide or to set up your own child sleep area.
Guests frequently comment on the surprise they get when they first arrive at the cabin and encounter the spectacular views. There is always something new and different to see as the days pass and the weather changes. No need to take a long, difficult uphill hike to get a fantastic view -- just sit on the back decks. The lights across the valley at night are magical. There is a waterfall view and long-range view across the Divide Valley into South Carolina from the back decks. The cabin is on 4.2 acres and there are only 4 residences on our street with huge lots for privacy. There is no traffic except for our neighbors and occasional maintenance and public safety routine checks. The cabin is close to numerous restaurants, the Sapphire Valley Resort, and numerous outdoor activities.
The upstairs is the main living/sleeping area with 3 bedrooms and two full baths. The downstairs is a spacious recreation area with home theater, card table, large wet bar, full size refrigerator, and lots of open space for children. The downstairs also has an additional private sleep area with a queen size bed. There is a full bath downstairs. The leather sofa downstairs folds out to a queen size bed, making 5 beds total if needed.
The kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook in and enjoy family.
Escape to an amazing area of the country. Take in so many adventures and excursions in the "Land of Waterfalls", but only if you wish. You can also stay close to the cabin and enjoy the 4.2 acres of privacy, enjoy the waterfall from the back decks, wonder at the fantastic long-range views, or walk through the wonderfully developed equestrian community, The Divide at Bald Rock. Our subdivision has its own access to the Panthertown National Forest.
