Which is it? Smoky or Smokey?
We spell it both ways on this web site. So, if you're searching for
honeymoon, anniversary or family vacation rental accommodations and log
homes, cabins and cottages for rent in the "Smokey"
mountains, you'll be sure to find us. Both are common spellings. But
if you want to be correct about it, spell it the way the National
Park Service does — the Great Smoky Mountains.
Smokey the Bear, on the other hand, spells his name the other way.
And if you're wondering about "Smokeys", "Smokys" or "Smokies,"
they're all correct.
Lake Nantahala
Andrews - Franklin - Cherokee, Macon County NC
Less than 2.5
hours from most of Atlanta
is this majestic pristine mountain lake.
Lake Nantahala is a crystal clear, remote high elevation lake nestled in North Carolina's Smoky Mountains
approximately 150 miles from Atlanta, convenient to Franklin, Andrews
and Murphy. The majority of Lake Nantahala's shoreline is US
Forest Service land and will never be developed. As a result, the
views are not marred by other homes. Lake Nantahala is over twice the
size of Lake Rabun and has only 1/3 the number of home sites. Lake
Nantahala is a true mountain lake with deep, crystal-clear water. At
3200 ft., Lake Nantahala is one of the highest elevation lakes in the
Southeast. Lake Nantahala's cool waters are great for fishing mountain
trout, pike, bass, catfish and watersports.

Andrews NC Mountain Valley
Nestled in the
heart of the Great Smoky Mountains, is a wide scenic valley where the sun
rises and sets over the tree-topped mountains, and the cool clear streams
flow gently down the ridges. Andrews NC is a small town virtually
untouched by large city influences and remains a place to enjoy a more
leisurely pace of life.
Come
by and sit a spell and imagine yourself hiking or trout fishing. Take a
ride on The Great Smoky
Mountains Railroad or gear up for the annual WNC Wagon Train. Stroll
down Main Street and shop for antiques, or take a "Llama Trek" to hidden
waterfalls for a gourmet lunch. You may decide to go horseback riding in
the Nantahala Forest or whitewater rafting down the Nantahala River. Join
us for the Summer Celebration or for the Annual Fall Car Show. We will
show you a good time!
This
is the place to lay back, kick off your shoes, wade in the creeks, jump in
the river, sing, dance, and enjoy the hospitality of the mountain people.
Andrews...the little town with the big heart.
