Before you pack up the car and head for the mountains, know that when we say mountains, we really mean it!
Downtown Bryson City has an elevation of 1,752 feet, so think of this as a starting point. The majority of our cabins will have a higher elevation than this. This means that our roads- both state and private- will be steeper, narrower, and curvier than you may be use to driving. Also, you should expect to encounter gravel roads. Consider it part of our rural mountain charm!
Here at Yellow Rose, your safety is our priority. If a cabin requires 4 wheel, front wheel, or all wheel drive to access it, it will be listed in the description. If bringing or riding motorcycles, please call and ask for motorcycle friendly properties. If you have any concerns about accessing your rental, please call prior to your arrival and we will be happy to discuss it with you.
Yellow Rose has top rated customer service and has been Locally Owned and Operated Since 1995. We are a company that gives back to the local community and we offer our guests 24/7 Emergency Assistance. View our list of adventure partners to get Special Discounts on Popular Attractions!

The first day we came we took pictures of everything. It was very dirty without pistachios leave out fireworks the hot tub was broke you didn't even get to use that they also have rats. Did you didn't hear them running around at night and then if you look inside the drawers then made nest in some more it was a very bad experience ruined my birthday trip. The girl don't work also and no AC in the living room.

Well when we arrived it was very dirty and then our last night we found rats and rat poop when we came back from our day out all over a blankets it was ridiculous the hot tub we didn't even get to use because it was broken and we didn't want to get charged $500 for it already being broken I had to send pictures of that overall my birthday trip was kind of ruined because of this.

Everything was exactly as expected. I think the drive up has been exaggerated on reviews, it was mostly paved and although steep(mountain road) it was easy to traverse. House does not have internet service, which is wonderful when trying to enjoy time together, very little distractions. Overall would definitely do again.

We arrived on 12/29/22 thinking that our weekend with our daughter and grandkids would be great…that quickly changed. According to our contract “check-out” instructions the kitchen must be cleaned, no dishes in dishwasher… the dishwasher was still hot and full of dishes. Also, the water had been turned off one of the toilets downstairs, no one had left a note or called to tell us that it was leaking, so we turned it on to use it. A little while later we had to clean up the water on the floor. Once we turned it off again, it started to leak anyway.
We removed the cover on the hot tub, the water was disgusting, skin particles or whatever else was all in the water. Three of us took showers that night the tubs began to gurgle.
12/30/22 my grandson got up and took a shower first thing and sewage started backing up in the other tub. At 9:00 am we called the Realty office and left a message. 1.30 hours later, we called again and spoke to a manager and explained what was going on. We were told the problem would be fixed to go and enjoy our day. At 4:30 pm we called to see if the problem had been fixed, left message and no one ever called. At 7:45 pm when we arrived back, we could tell that someone had been there but only rinsed the tubs out. My daughter and I used dish detergent (that I brought) and cleaned the tubs. My husband took a shower and while he was in there it started backing up again.
Also, there is very little cell service here and according to the Yellow Rose contract, there was a home telephone to make local calls that none of us saw anywhere.
Our stay was supposed to be from Thursday – Sunday, at 8:00 pm on Friday, we left the place cleaner than we found it, other than the tubs or toilets and drove into Cherokee and rented 2 hotel rooms for the night and came home on Saturday.
We called Yellow Rose on Saturday while we were driving home, and no one ever answered. On Monday, 1/2/2023 we called again and finally spoke to someone that told us that the water lines had been frozen in the house prior to our arrival and that more than likely the sewage lines were frozen as well.
I believe that Yellow Rose Realty should have given the us a courtesy call, in advance so that we could have found other accommodations for the weekend. Yes, they did refund us a partial payment, but we weren't even there for 24-hours before we had to find a hotel.

We left after the first night and moved for the rest of our stay. This home is at the top of the mountain, the road up is sketchy, the home is in need of updating and a through cleaning.
3.7
It was the worse. Trying to get up the mountain was a nightmare. The house was extremely outdated. Air-conditioner you could see out side bugs coming in. It wS a true living nightmare.
3.7
The house is older and needs some upgrades but it was very clean and had everything we needed. The drive way is a nightmare. No phone in the house and no cell or Internet service. The view from the deck was beautiful. Had a great time

Reviewer Comments:
Location was great! Privacy and beautiful views. It is a bit far from Cherokee and Bryson City not a place you want to use as a launch point like we did for sure. The ONLY thing clean in this house was the bed linens thank God! Beds slept great, sheets appeared new. Bathroom towels appeared new. Tub and toilet clean. Carpets are stained and the other floors so dirty we were afraid to even let our kids walk barefoot inside. The house is very musty smelling we had to go buy air freshener. Sliding glass doors on one bedroom won't open to the deck at all. The one in the living room is very hard to open and shut. The glass on them is in terrible shape you can't even see through them. Inches of dust on everything! Looks like it hasn't been cleaned in a long time! The grill on the porch, the entire bottom is rusted out and unusable unless you plan to start a forest fire. Hot tub was nice but if your allergic to bees stay far far away. The back porch is covered in them, pretty positive there is a big nest up under the hot tub. The deck needs to be replaced looks like it's starting to rot and slant like it ready to fall. The driveway up is long, steep and sharp turns however we had no issues taking it slow in our truck. No 4 wheel drive needed. We simply will NOT stay here again because of the uncleanliness! We literally had to go buy cleaning supplies and clean before we were comfortable.

We absolutely loved staying here but we was told you know it is in the mountains no wifi but there was a home phone. When we arrived no one had signal no big deal so we looked for the home phone we was told about and could not find it. The phone number was was gave for the home phone our family had called and said it was disconnected. We was upset because we was told there was home and there was not.

The rental property was nice. However, a few things could be fixed. There was not many appliances to use. The grill is starting to fall apart. The one bedroom with a mini tv, the DVD player didn’t work. There is only Direct TV and a DVD player, but no DVDs. The drive up the mountain is beautiful. It is steep. We drove our Kia Forte up with no problems. The view beautiful. This is a place you want to go to disconnect. I WiFi or phone service. Well just enough service to text. Will rent again with more people to enjoy!

The cabin was amazing. The drive up the mountain was a little rougher than described. The property is an awesome spot for a getaway but you'll want to come up to stay and not use it as a launch spot.

This property had beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. I was able to make it up the driveway with my VW Jetta with little issues. The layout in the cabin was great for our family and friends. The kids enjoyed the bedrooms upstairs while the adults had plenty of privacy with the bedrooms downstairs. Kitchen was spacious. This cabin was exactly what we were looking for and was much more peaceful then our stay on the north side of the park in Gatlinburg.

We really loved our time at the Mountain Top House! It was more than what we expected! It was large enough to accommodate our large group! The driveway is a little hard to find. However, we did not find it as scary as some of the other reviews. My only complaint would be that there is no house phone and service is not good at all. We would definitely stay here again!

Reviewer Comments:
Overall the house was the perfect size for our family of 10. The views were beautiful and relaxing. The house was clean and adequately supplied with bathroom linens and kitchen needs. The small A/C units in each bedroom are not adequate on warmer days. There are a few outside issues that need to be taken care of before someone gets hurt. The step railing on the back porch needs to be replaced, and the flooring under the hot tub needs to be replaced and reinforced from under the deck; very dangerous if left unattended. You need to be adventurous concerning the driveway. I knew the ad said it was steep, but understated. My sister who is usually a daredevil, was actually uneasy driving up and down. VERY steep and narrow. We made it fine, but a large vehicle will have problems maneuvering up & down.

I definitely recommend if your staying here you show up during the day or you won't find the driveway and it is close to impossible to turn around if you've gone to far. The driveway is crazy steep, don't do it if your breaks aren't good. There is no cable or house phone or cell signal. The Hot Tub was nice.

Grill was broke ,coffee pot was leaking killing bud the whole time we was there. Road conditions is bad. No WiFi, couldn’t look at Big TV had to go and buy tape.

The property was exactly up on a mountain top the view was beautiful. The hot tub works and it was very hot. The problems I had was no signal at all which was expected to relax and get away. Although the cleanliness was ok it was infested with ladybugs. I mean ladybugs in the corner of the ceiling. Ladybugs on top of old dead ladybugs. It was in every room all over the ceiling and corner of each rooms. To be honest I thought it was bedbugs because of how bad it was infested it was. Yes they are harmless but grouse. And to be charge for housekeeping knowing someone had to seen how bad it was.

Very disappointed in the location. Rental property manager should have listed in more detail the location andthe very remote location due to the road conditions getting to this property. Property manager obviously did not go on site prior to arrival because they would have seen all the issue we seen when walking in the door. Again very disappointed.

Reviewer Comments:
There were 7 of us and plenty of room for us to all be comfortable. Nice view from all of the bedrooms and balcony for the upstairs too. Beautiful scenery out walking around saw some chipmunks too. The hot tub and the stars were our entertainment at night! Very relaxing. The location was perfect for the areas we wanted to go visit, ive lived out in the country so the extra driving wasn't an issue to go places. Hard to get cell service but we could txt ok to keep in touch with my dog sitter at home. For the price it was fine. Some repairs as mentioned from others the sliding glass doors are a detractor, what ever is on the one closest to the hot tub the view is clouded from the chlorine?? I guess cleaning crew could put a little more elbow grease as we did some cleaning when we arrived. The dining room table had food crumbs and something sticky on the coffee table and Inscense were used by them we guessed as there were a few sticks found around the house. Everything worked fine, washer dryer, dishwasher, fireplace. We had some chilly night and loved it, the house was very comfortable and not drafty at all. I would use this cabin again for future get aways now that we know what to look for to find the driveway, LOL. NO WOODEN BRIDGE to look for to turn into and go up the drive!! Once we knew what to look for no problem. It was always an adventure driving in and out!! We didn't attempt it at night! Dusk was good for us but we wanted plenty of hot tub, star gazing time! The beds were very comfortable we all commented on how well we slept and enjoyed hearing the crickets through the night. A fire pit would be cool but the location and some may not have skills to handle keeping a fire contained i can understand why not built on property.But a gas fire pit would be sweet on the big back deck!!

We stayed for 2 nights and had a great time. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Love the colored lights in the hot tub! The driveway is steep but you have to expect that for a mountain-top house. Night lights in every bathroom was a great touch!
