Great mountain property while visiting Bryson City

This being a newer listing we didn't know what to expect but it was exactly as described and just like the photos. The beds were super comfy and it is so close to downtown Bryson City and the National Park. We really enjoyed our short stay here.

Cozy Smokey Mountain Getaway

The place is nice and tucked away on a hillside. Very quiet with beautiful views. Star gazing is great because it is very dark when the lights are turned off. The property is exactly like the pictures show.

Neat property close to everything

This is a neat property and so close to everything in Bryson City. It’s especially close to downtown Bryson City as well as the National Park. You can actually walk to the Park if you like to do so. We walked in the mornings when it was nice and cool. The property itself was very private and very clean. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location & comfortable home

A perfect location for our visit. Private hilltop with nice views but just down the road from Deep Creek area in GSMNP. Also close to the quaint touristy town of Bryson City. The rental was clean & comfortable with everything we needed. Kitchen had nearly new everything, and the beds & living room furniture were exceptionally comfortable. The home easily accommodated our party of 6. Property manager was easy to reach & very responsive. Overall a great stay!!

Brian, the host was very responsive and accommodating! The house was very comfortable and kitchen was well supplied. We were able to cook a full Thanksgiving meal with all the traditional sides and desserts. Great views of the mountains from the house. When there was an issue with the HVAC, Brian even came out on Thanksgiving day to bring a space heater. Couldn’t ask for a better host.
