The custom modern design by the owner of Watershed himself and the construction with repurposement and other environmentally-friendly methods as a focus make this home special. This 'mountain-modern' cabin with its chic industrial loft elements styled with a mountain flair sits perfectly on a private lot with a long-range, sunset view of Sassafras Gap. The design details need to be witnessed, but the features like home theater, indoor and outdoor rain showers, master jetted tub, and of course floor to ceiling windows, make this one of our premiere cabins, if you dare use that term for it. And for 2020, we have added a wet/dry sauna as an amenity! Also, it is located on our 50-acre tract we call the Watershed Resort.

kitchen

Your kitchen is appointed with granite counter tops and all new stainless appliances including dishwasher, microwave and coffee maker. We also provide you with all the dishes, utensils and cooking tools you'll need. A gas grill is provided for BBQ connoisseurs (full propane tank included).

great room

The great room features a living and dining area with table suitable for seating 6. The decor features leather sofa, bamboo floors, gas-log fireplace and loft-industrial interiors with a minimalist theme. There is HD TV with Blu-Ray DVD player. There's a wraparound covered deck that features a relaxing bedswing that may just trump the indoor space for your time.

garage

The garage is for use only by the cabin owner and not available for use by tenants.

sleeping accommodations

All our cabins feature both down and foam pillows as well as down comforters. Each bed has a pillow-top mattress and luxury, all-cotton linens. Designer-luxury towels are provided for the base number of occupancy with additional stock towels for hot tub use.

ground floor

The king master bedroom is enormous and features 2 captain's chairs, a modern LED fireplace and 50" TV. Large windows and doors provide an open feel to the outside firepit and hot tub, but total blackout can be achieved with the wall to wall drapes. A huge master bath is adjacent, with its 2 person jetted tub and open rain-shower area plus double sinks. Large washer/dryer is on this level.

upstairs

The home theater room can be converted to the second bedroom. 2 futon-sofa units fold flat and can be topped with our 2" foam mattress topper and mattress pad to make a king bed. Full bed linens including light-down comforter and pillows are provided. This bedroom uses the main shared bathroom, with its built-in slate tile shower among the log structure of the home.

EV Charging - the home is equipped with a 240V outlet ready for a charging station. If you desire EV charging, please notify the Watershed Cabins office in advance and we will set up a Emporia Level 2, 48 amp EV Charger for use during your stay.

The stay was very good, just thought some of the items within the house need updating and especially the water quality system. Understand the mountain water issues, but this was the worst we have experience since renting in Bryson City.

Enjoyed the serenity of the home and beautiful views in the common area. Lots of adventures for families to enjoy in the area.

Overall happy with our stay- home is beautiful but needing a little attention- Washing machine has mold which is common with stackable- hot tub works but needs a little repair for the jet control, the decking is starting to rot in places on the steps, the sauna needs some minor repairs to the seating. Outdoor seating near fire pit is wet/moldy- Swing is nice- inside is beautiful and very comfortable- lots of technology that os a bit dated- overall it's a great spot that just needs a little TLC- The outside shower is wonderful
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2022
Great comfortable cabin. The views and porch are amazing the fire pit and hot tub as well. The kitchen is large and good for cooking meal and the living room and couch are comfortable. The master bedroom is large and comfortable as well. Both the upstairs, outside and the master bath showers are great. The only negatives I have are the cabin needs a deep clean it is not dirty but it is starting to get dusty and grungy and will soo be dirty if no deep clean is done. Second thing is the property roads. It says motorcycle friendly which is not true unless you have a super moto bike. I am very very glad we drove my wife's suv because my car would have been way to low and rwd would have meant I would not have been able to reach the cabin. Not a deal breaker but if you are reading this it would be good to know. All that aside I would stay again.
