Escape to our fairytale cabin, on 27 secluded, private acres of gorgeous forest on Lake Wedowee. Soak in the hot tub, bake a pizza in the wood-fired oven, snuggle in the porch nest swing or stroll down the river road to swim or kayak. Hike to Wolf Creek and pan for gold. This gorgeous cabin is inspired by the original 1840s rock chimneys-found in the forest—built with reclaimed heart of pine, stained glass & cedar from the woods. Guinea fowl live on site. No kids under the age of 12.
This hand-crafted, light-filled cabin will be one of the most luxurious and interesting spaces you will have the pleasure of experiencing.
Brought to you by the team at the famed Alpaca Treehouse in the Bamboo Forest, this beautiful character rich space was inspired by the original 1840s chimneys (2 of them) found on the site, in the forest.

-Forest Bathing:: Spending time in nature, with its perfect balance of sights, sounds, smells, and peaceful environment, offers essential rewards for our highly stressed mental and physical selves. No wonder the ecotherapy practice of forest bathing, otherwise known as Shinrin-yoku, is gaining steam for all the right reasons. Don’t be confused; the exercise has nothing to do with soap or water. Instead, the name refers to the way participants fully immerse themselves in — and reconnect with — nature.
