Privacy, privacy, privacy! Elk Point is a hiker’s paradise. High in the Smoky Mountains above Maggie Valley, NC, this fabulous authentic log home is just under a mile from the Cataloochee Valley National Park. The vacation rental is named for the area in the national park where elk have been reintroduced into North Carolina. The herd is thriving and can be seen in the afternoons in the park, grazing the fields that once sustained the original inhabitants of the area. Elk Point adjoins the Cataloochee trail and is the perfect base station for hiking in the park. Elk Point is a spacious log home on 10 private acres. It features three large bedrooms - one upstairs with a King bed and 2 on the main level with a queen-sized bed in each. A sleeping loft with another queen bed and two twin/trundle beds overlook the stone fireplace in the great room. Take in beautiful views of the surrounding Smoky Mountains. 10 minutes to Cataloochee Park. 20 minutes to Maggie Valley. 25 minutes to Waynesville, NC. 35 minutes to Harrah’s Casino, Cherokee gambling. 45 minutes to Asheville, NC, home of the Biltmore House.
