Mountain Top Cabin with a View that is Centrally Located in Western Carolina.

Juke Cabin is great place to relax or be adventurous in the mountains of western North Carolina. Our porch offers an incredible view where you can relax on the outdoor sofa or rock in the rocking chairs. The porch is kid/dog friendly with a gate enclosure to prevent sneaking off! Meals can be enjoyed on the porch table or inside on the dining room table. Enjoy the indoor fireplace on a chilly night or outside at the firepit on summer evenings. The kitchen has been fully renovated with all new appliances and granite countertops. The kitchen cabinets an antique "wormy chestnut" that were made locally over 50 years ago and have been restored to maintain the mountaintop cabin feel.

Juke Cabin is centrally located between Cherokee and Asheville, North Carolina. Hiking can be done nearby in the Great Smokey Mountains or Blue Ridge Parkway. Countless waterfalls are located nearby including Dry Falls, Mingo Falls, Looking Glass Falls, High Falls, Turtleback Fall and Rainbow Falls. Visit nearby Dillsboro or Sylva to grab a meal or drink at a local brewery after shopping at the local artist galleries. Jump on the train in Dillsboro and ride it through the Great Smokey Mountains to Bryson City. Visit nearby Cherokee, NC where you can visit the Cherokee Indian Village, see elk, watch the play Unto These Hills (an outdoor drama retailing the Trail of Tears), or try your luck at Harrah's Cherokee Casino. Take a day trip exploring the Great Smokey Mountains and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Kayaking, tubing and white water rafting are just a short trip down the mountain in Dillsboro or in Bryson City. Ziplining is a fun adventure close to Juke Cabin too. There are several gem mining locations nearby that is always fun for the kids. Asheville is just an hour away. We are happy to offer suggestions on things to do that involve kids, dogs, grandparents or families.

Or, just sit on the porch with a glass of wine or cup of coffee while enjoying the view to recharge your batteries!

We have enjoyed our cabin for over 16 years with babies, kids, teenagers, grandparents and dogs. We can offer a variety of suggestions on places to see, visit, eat and hike for any age group - with our without dogs too!

Our stay in this cozy moutain home was perfect. The mountaun view is breath taking from the porch and the house is well stocked with everything you could need from; cooking, games, tvs, comfortable furninure, and laundry. The drive up the moutain is an adventure and confirms that you truly found a place to get away from everyday life and enjoy nature. The host does an excellent job of keeping in touch with you and is very responsive if you need any assistance. We loved spending time here.

As advertised. The cabin had an incredible view and was secluded. We greatly enjoyed the wildlife, fireflies, humming birds, and the fire pit. The road up the the cabin was an adventure, but well worth it for the view.

Michelle was a great host. She checked on us before we got there and even called to provide some last minute information about the heat. The view from the back porch is gorgeous and the house had everything we needed. My family enjoyed the stay. Michelle provides great directions up to the house as it is not on a state maintained road. The first time you go to the house go when you have some daylight as Michelle recommends.

Beautiful spot with great views

The house has, by far, the most beautiful landscaping of any house we've ever stayed. Communication with host was great. WAY off the beaten track, the road to the house is challenging at first and you need to pay attention to the directions. Great mountain views from porch. House, while not luxurious, is clean, well equipped and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

The name of the cabin does this place an absolute justice. It does feel heavenly in the clouds.We absolutely enjoyed the stay. Cabin has a wonderful view. Has couple of games for us to play. The patio was our favorite place to hand out. My dog absolutely enjoyed roaming outside the cabin. It is a thrilling ride at night to the cabin. I would suggest to reach while the sun it out. The host is an absolutely amazing person. She is kind and supportive. I left some things at the cabin. She offered to mail it to me.

We enjoyed our stay at Juke cabin. We were greeted at the entrance by lovely native plants and the porch view was spectacular!! There were many amenities that enhanced our stay--cleanliness, a well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, ample linens and great communication from the owner. We were so grateful to be able to take our extended family our fur babies-Thanks We will definitely return to Juke cabin.!! the Lowcountry family

Absolutely Fantastic!!!

The only thing that could have made our stay better was if it were longer! The cabin was even better than advertised, secluded, quiet and very homey. Michelle was outstanding from the start, and squeezed in the third leg of our honeymoon tour on relatively short notice. Everything you could think of was provided, and if you bought enough groceries you would never even need to leave the cabin (we did anyways though, and the local shops and restaurants were delightful). My wife is in love with it and can't wait to go back, and neither can I. Literally the best VRBO/AirB&B we've ever stayed in! start, and

Mountain Getaway

We had a wonderful time at Juke Cabin. First of all communication with Michelle was excellent. She answered promptly and made us feel very welcome in her family's vacation home. It was very peaceful and the long range views were beautiful. Slow and steady wins the race when you drive up. Don't be nervous. We hope to return someday.

An amazing view

We were amazed at the view from the beginning. The cabin was big enough for a family of 4 and 2 fur babies. The cleanliness really caught our attention, especially the fact that we did not see one spiderweb, my daughter is terrified of spiders. Our dogs loved the porch and it has an added bonus of a gate. The drive was comfortable and Michelle really explained all we need to do. We will definitely go back and recommend it.

My husband, mom of 91 years old and myself stayed very comfortably here. My mom had the downstairs bedroom with it's own heater, we had the upstairs bedroom which had 2 queen beds and a balcony. This room was cozy and quiet. Loved the balcony. The cabin was lovely and well decorated. My mom uses a walker and she got around very well. We will definitely come back. Thank you Michelle for your hospitality.

Incredible view, perfect getaway

This was such an incredible place to stay for a long weekend! The view is amazing, and the house is stocked with everything you’d need. Be sure to bring your own food, as there is not a grocery store close by. Also, it is a bit of a rocky drive up the mountain, so a car with all wheel drive is best. Still possible with a small sedan, but we had to take it slow. Absolutely worth it, though! I will be recommending this to my friends and family.
