Yes, There Are Mini Donkeys! Peaceful Mountain Cabin Retreat | Cabin in Clyde
3 Bedroom Cabin in Clyde
Secluded Smoky Mountain Cabin Near a 65-Acre Bison Ranch
Tucked away in the peaceful mountains of Western North Carolina, this cozy log cabin retreat offers the perfect balance of seclusion, adventure, and one-of-a-kind ranch experiences.
Just three minutes from the main ranch at Buffalo Creek Vacations, this private getaway invites guests to slow down, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and reconnect with nature.
Legend has it that on certain nights of the year, when the moon is just right, the Buffalo Creek bison and their llama friends sneak away from their usual stomping grounds in search of a little peace and quiet. Their favorite place to relax? This tranquil mountain hideaway.
Whether the legend is true or not, one thing is certain — this is a place where relaxation comes naturally.
Wake Up to the Smoky Mountains
Start your mornings watching the sunrise over the mountain peaks as the mist lifts from the Smoky Mountains. Then head over to the ranch viewing platform to watch the herd of buffalo come in for their morning oats at the feeding corral — an unforgettable experience for guests of all ages.
Back at the cabin, enjoy a quiet morning with coffee or cocoa on the large front porch, or unwind in the private hot tub after a day of exploring the mountains.
