A welcoming fireplace adds warmth and character, while the spacious porches and deck invite you to enjoy mountain views and the sounds of the river nearby. The magic of Rainbow Springs is the setting, surrounded by the Nantahala National Forest, 3.5 miles of Nantahala River, as well as access to Nantahala Lake. Opportunities for fishing, kayaking, boating, hiking, wildlife watching and simply getting away from it all abound in this low density community. Imagine starting your morning with coffee on the porch, heading down to the river for a day of fishing, launching your boat on Nantahala Lake, or exploring the miles of mountain trails nearby. At the end of the day, return home to trout on the grill in the peace & privacy of your own mountain retreat. For the buyer who values privacy, pristine mountain surroundings, exceptional trout fishing, and direct access to some of Western North Carolina's best outdoor recreation, 89 Wilderness Drive is a rare opportunity.
