North Carolina
Cullowhee Cabins & Vacation Rentals
A valley town on the Tuckasegee, built around Western Carolina University and surrounded by trailheads.
Cullowhee sits in the Tuckasegee valley south of Sylva, quiet outside term time and close to a lot of water. The river runs through it for trout fishing and summer floats, and the mountains start immediately behind the town.
Western Carolina University gives it more going on than its size suggests, and Judaculla Rock, one of the most significant Cherokee sites in the state, is just up the road.
