Fontana View 2 – A Handcrafted Mountain Escape
Fontana View 2 is a true Smoky Mountain masterpiece, built with hand-crafted yellow cedar and Douglas fir logs sourced from Canada for a perfect fit and timeless appeal. With nearly 1,700 sq. ft. of living space, this stunning cabin features an open floor plan, expansive windows, two king master suites, a dedicated kids’ bunk area, and a ridgetop location bordering U.S. Forest Service hiking trails.

Cabin Features
Gourmet Kitchen
The fully equipped kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and everything you need to cook like a pro—including a gas range and stainless vent hood. This is no standard rental kitchen; it’s what we call a chef’s kitchen. From essential cookware to thoughtful extras like kabob skewers, we’ve included everything to make you feel at home. A gas grill with a full propane tank and spare is ready for your outdoor BBQ favorites.
Great Room & Entertainment
The open-concept great room combines comfort and style with mountain-modern décor, hardwood floors, and a towering stone fireplace that doubles as a centerpiece for both the living area and the adjoining rec room. Relax on the leather sofa and loveseat, enjoy the HD flat-screen TV with DirecTV, or listen to your favorite tunes through the high-fidelity sound system.
Just steps away, the rec room features a pool table surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the breathtaking mountain scenery. From here, walk out to the patios or follow the boardwalk deck to a private elevated area with a fire pit and hot tub, perfectly positioned for soaking in the panoramic views.
Sleeping Arrangements
Main Level: Cozy bunk nook with twin beds, designed with style and comfort in mind.
Upper Level: Two luxurious king master suites featuring down comforters, private balconies, and en-suite bathrooms with garden tubs, walk-in showers, and heated tile floors for winter stays. Large picture windows in each bathroom overlook the pristine forest for a serene spa-like experience.

Important Notice: Road Conditions in the Smoky Mountains
Please be aware that road conditions in the Smoky Mountains can be unpredictable and may change rapidly due to weather. Our cabin’s roads & driveways are either pavement or gravel or both. Depending on the season, you may experience road conditions such as heavy rain washouts, snow, sleet, roads covered in leaves, etc. We highly recommend using a 4WD vehicle to ensure safe travel to your cabin, especially during winter months or inclement weather. We also strongly recommend traveling in a vehicle with higher ground clearance to navigate the terrain more easily. Low clearance vehicles will not be able to access certain cabin roads including The Watershed Resort.

NO REFUNDS will be issued if you are unable to reach your cabin due to road conditions.
We advise checking weather and road conditions prior to your trip to ensure a safe and pleasant journey.
Your safety is our priority. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Water Conservation Policy
To ensure the sustainability of our beautiful mountain environment, we kindly ask all guests to use water mindfully during their stay. Please limit shower times, turn off the tap while brushing your teeth, and report any leaks immediately. We also encourage the reuse of towels and linens to reduce water consumption. These small actions help preserve our natural resources and keep the mountains pristine for future visitors.
Run the washer sparingly.
Only run the dishwasher when it's full.
DO NOT wash your car.
Thank you for understanding, and we look forward to your visit!
Attention: Active Wildlife in the Area
Our area of WNC is currently experiencing increased wildlife activity, particularly from bears. While it’s a privilege to share our environment with these magnificent creatures, it’s essential that we all take precautions to ensure our safety and theirs.
Please follow these guidelines:
Secure all food and garbage: Bears are attracted to strong smells. Do not leave food in your car and reattach bungee cords to trash can lids every time.
Be aware of your surroundings: Stay alert, especially during dawn and dusk when wildlife is most active.
Avoid close encounters: If you see a bear or other wildlife, maintain a safe distance and do not approach.
Travel in groups: When possible, hike or explore with others, and make noise to alert animals of your presence. Keep dogs leashed at all times.
Your cooperation is crucial in maintaining a safe and harmonious environment for everyone. Thank you for your attention and care.
