See all FAQs →Cabin (Cheoah 3) FAQs
What does Cabin Cheoah 3 look out on?
Cabin Cheoah 3 sits on the banks of the Cheoah River within Tapoco Lodge Resort's 120 acres of woodland in Nantahala National Forest. Expect river sounds and a peaceful, wooded outlook. The river is dam-controlled and has scheduled whitewater release dates through the year, popular with rafters and kayakers.
How are the beds set up, and who does Cabin Cheoah 3 sleep?
The cabin has 1 King Bed and 1 Twin Bed and sleeps three guests. That suits a couple travelling with one child or friend, or a small family. Both beds have pillowtop mattresses and premium bedding.
What is the bathroom like?
The cabin has a private bathroom with a shower and bathtub combination, designer toiletries, a hair dryer and towels. The tub is handy after a day on the trails or a drive on the Tail of the Dragon.
Is Cabin Cheoah 3 a good choice for families or couples?
Yes. The king-plus-twin layout works for couples, or a small family of three. Tapoco Lodge Resort welcomes well-behaved children of guests. The rule that children 12 and under cannot stay applies to the historic lodge rooms in the main building, not to the cabins. Children under 12 are not permitted in hot tubs at any time.
Where can I eat, and how do the lodge's restaurants work?
There are two restaurants on site. The Cheoah Dining Room serves breakfast from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m., with limited terrace seating over the river. The casual riverside Tapoco Tavern serves pub fare, brick-oven pizza and Carolina Mountain trout from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., with tables seated until 9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Reservations are recommended at (828) 498-2800. The Tavern is seasonal. In winter the cozy Laurel Lounge, just off the lodge lobby, becomes the evening gathering spot.
What is there to do at the lodge and nearby?
On the property you can hike 22 miles of trails, fish, kayak, bike, play tennis or pickleball, and sit by the firepits. There is also a games room, a library and the Tapoco Tin Can Theater, which usually shows movies on Friday nights. The Mountain Spa is open Friday to Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Nearby, the start of the Tail of the Dragon is less than three miles away, and Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest is about 13.5 miles away. The lodge has no swimming pool, but it does have a hot tub.
What should I know about check-in, cell service and getting there?
Check-in runs from 4 PM to 10 PM. The front desk is staffed from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM and there is no after-hours check-in. Check-out is before 10:00 AM. Bring photo ID and a credit card. A $50 damage deposit is taken on arrival and is reimbursed within 7 days of check-out. The property's terms set a minimum age of 21. WiFi works well throughout the lodge, but cell service in the surrounding mountains is limited. The nearest airport is McGhee Tyson (TYS), roughly 76–83 minutes away by car.
When is the best time to stay at Tapoco Lodge Resort?
The lodge is especially beautiful during fall foliage and spring wildflower season. Roughly late April to mid-October offers the most comfortable weather, and September, May and June are rated the most pleasant months. Summer is warm and humid, and the area is one of the wetter parts of North Carolina, so pack for rain.
