Nestled in Buffalo Cove on the quiet side of Lake Santeetlah, this log cabin combines historical charm, modern-day style, and cozy comfort. Wooded and private with multiple outdoor spaces overlooking the water, this authentic Appalachian Cabin is quite possibly the most unique property on the lake. Hand-built in the 1860s, this Early American treasure has been lovingly restored and recently updated with well-appointed amenities. With 3 large bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a spacious living room, an upstairs reading nook, an eat-in kitchen, and a screened-in porch, everyone has a comfortable place to relax and ample space to gather. This turnkey cabin comes fully furnished and severs as both a cherished family retreat and profitable short-term rental property generating 45-50k annually.
