    A rare opportunity to own your own mountain oasis on the beautiful Nantahala River. With deeded fishing rights in the exclusive, privately stocked waters of Rainbow Springs, this handcrafted cabin offers a rare combination of rustic elegance, privacy, and natural beauty. Nestled among towering hardwoods and evergreens, the sound of the river becomes your constant companion—a gentle reminder that you've found a place apart from the rest of the world. Inside, the cabin feels warm and welcoming, with three spacious bedrooms and two full baths thoughtfully designed for comfort and connection. The open-concept living area glows with the warmth of wood and the character of custom craftsmanship. Every detail invites you to slow down, unwind, and savor the quiet simplicity of mountain life. Step outside to covered upper and lower decks overlooking the river below—perfect for morning coffee, quiet reflection, or watching mist rise over the water at dawn.

Rainbow Springs is bordered by U.S. Forest Service land, creating a landscape rich with wildlife, clear streams, and endless opportunities to explore. The area is known for its breathtaking beauty, pristine waters, and the kind of stillness that can only be found deep in the mountains. Located between Franklin and Hayesville, this peaceful retreat offers easy access to charming shops, local dining, and scenic drives through some of Western North Carolina's most captivating countryside. Whether you dream of a full-time home or a private mountain retreat, this property captures the essence of what draws people to the Nantahala—the beauty, the stillness, the river that never stops singing.
