Cold Mountain is a collaboration of mountain retreats with contemporary features encompassed within historically-inspired natural surroundings extending from the Pigeon River to the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains.

Picture an elaborate log cabin with an expansive wrap-around porch set between the river and mountains. Then imagine walking inside on heated floors to a gourmet kitchen, large windows with breathtaking views. Then imagine walking through the backdoor to an living and dining alfresco. The home, the views, the smells, the atmosphere are all breathtaking.

You can fly-fish for trout; your gear awaits at on-site Outfitters Post. There is a private beach and a swimming hole for swimming and tubing.

Cold Mountain is nestled outside Waynesville in western North Carolina. Waynesville offers a charming, old-fashioned general store and variety of convenience shops.
