The Lodge at Cane Creek - A 116-Acre Private Mountain Estate. Discover an extraordinary Western North Carolina retreat where a handcrafted mountain lodge, equestrian facilities, recreation, and remarkable privacy come together across approximately 116 acres.

Behind a private gated entrance, the estate encompasses four parcels, including approximately 20 acres outside HOA restrictions-offering an exceptional combination of privacy, flexibility, and recreational opportunity. At the heart of the property is a handcrafted dovetail log lodge constructed from timber harvested directly from the land.

Surrounded by mountain views, streams, established trails, and abundant wildlife, the lodge offers timeless craftsmanship and an unmistakable sense of place. Soaring ceilings, exposed timber beams, expansive windows, and a grand stone fireplace create an impressive gathering space, while the primary suite features its own fireplace and separate bathrooms.

A detached 647-square-foot guest apartment above the garage provides additional accommodations with its own kitchen, full bath, bedroom area, and private entrance. Beyond the lodge, the estate is designed to be experienced outdoors. Two stocked ponds, multiple streams, established trails, abundant wildlife, hunting opportunities, two hunting stands, and a waterfront BBQ area create a true sporting and recreational retreat.

Equestrian amenities include a custom cedar barn with four stalls, tack room, loft with hay feeders, full bath, water, electricity, and adjacent pasture. A large cedar storage building provides additional space for equipment, tools, and recreational gear.

The property is also exceptionally well equipped, with generator systems serving the main lodge, guest apartment, and well house, along with two wells and a 290-gallon fuel storage tank. Most furnishings, the tractor, UTVs, and additional equipment convey, allowing the next owner to begin enjoying the property immediately.

The Lodge at Cane Creek represents a rare opportunity to own 116 acres of Western North Carolina for recreation, equestrian pursuits, a family retreat, or a legacy estate to be enjoyed for generations.
