The onset of cold weather means packing up many Lake Nantahala outdoor adventures. White water rafting, fishing, and kayaking have become something to anticipate for the warm, sunny weather of spring. But with the splendor of our fall foliage, crisp waterfalls, and rugged mountain terrain, autumn gives new life to outdoor adventures like hiking, camping, and horseback riding. Thanksgiving is quickly approaching, and our North Carolina mountain lake homes offer plenty to be thankful for. Explore a world of beauty, adventure, and brisk mountain air in the national forests just beyond your backyard.
Appalachian Trail

Whether you’re hitting the open trails alone or riding into the sunset with your loved ones in tow, a horseback riding tour of Nantahala is the perfect start to your Thanksgiving festivities. Learn the significance of our national forests, see historic settlements, and discover untold natural beauty with one of the many guided tour options.
