Property Description

Pet Friendly: No

Under new ownership!!  Direct access on the coveted Lower Alarka portion of Fontana Lake.  You'll be in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains at this fisherman and kayaker’s paradise - Headwater's Hideaway! Enjoy the secluded nature of this cozy home, complete with comfortable furnishings, an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and many picture windows, plus plenty of space to spread out! Whether you're planning a family vacation, a summer fishing excursion, a kayaking retreat, or a couples getaway; you'll love coming home to this lake cabin. In the Summer, you will find a calm oasis just outside your door, and after Labor Day, the lower waterline transforms the property into a riverfront home where you can witness the changing ecosystem. So close to Bryson City and all of the attractions and outdoor adventure the area provides!

Let’s take a walk though Headwater's Hideaway! The main level living space includes plenty of seating with tasteful rustic decor complete with satellite TV and Wifi. The kitchen is well-equipped along with a dining table for four. There is also bar seating for two additional just in case. Inside you'll enjoy many cozy details that include polished wood beams, rustic mountain decor, and a fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling stone facade. The main level bedroom is complete with a comfy queen bed along with full bathroom just across the hall. You won’t be disappointed with this cabin location or amenities! The upper level is a completely private master suite with a comfortable, plush king-sized bed, full bathroom, and flat screen TV.  The picture windows provide amazing scenery and light from the loft all year around. The is really a highlight and a gem to walk up to in the mornings.


Venture outside where you can relax and take in the scenery while enjoying a cup of coffee, glass of wine, or just sitting around the wraparound porch. Grill out and enjoy a tasty meal, or take a soak in the private hot tub. 


With private access to the lake and stream, you can enjoy the best of Fontana! Go for a swim, have a lake side picnic, or rent a boat from Alarka Marina -- only about a mile away. Partake in some of the best attractions that Western North Carolina has to offer at this lake cabin!
