About this house rental
Custom built luxury log home that is conveniently located only about 5 minutes from town, 10 minutes from Deep Creek and Road to Nowhere, 15 minutes from the NOC and Fontana Lake. This home sits on 2 private acres that are beautifully landscaped so that you can enjoy peace and quiet as a base camp for your mountain adventure. Go hiking, ride the train, visit the local shops, restaurants, and breweries in downtown Bryson City without having to navigate a steep driveway! A huge deck extends the entire way around with a covered porch on one side where you can relax and hear the birds chirping or wave to the passing Great Smoky Mountain Railroad guests. A massive stacked Tennessee Field Stone gas fireplace allows you to relax in the main living area. Visiting for the holidays? A cook's kitchen featuring 2 ovens, a gas range, a wet bar and lots of granite counter top space make food prep easy. The master (King) is on the main level with exterior doors onto the porch and a nice bathroom that has a huge Jacuzzi tub and a tile shower. 2 bedrooms upstairs (1 Queen, 2 twins) each with their own baths. The downstairs has a large family room with another massive hearth, a bedroom (King) with a bath and double vanity sinks, another whirlpool tub and stand up tile shower. Internet, cell reception, and a desk is also available (a rare find in the mountains) if you need to do a little virtual work while you’re away. This is truly a beautiful home that we hope your family can enjoy as much as we do.
A pack n play, rocking chair, and children’s toys and books are available to make your vacation packing easy!

We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home. It was spotless and well stocked with everything needed to enjoy your time there. You can relax and do nothing or be busy doing a different activity everyday. The location is great, a bit secluded but close to most things you’ll want to do. We all had a great time and hope to enjoy another week there in the future.

This was an AMAZING property for our family vacation. Me, my husband, our 2 sons and their wives and our 5 grandchildren ranging in age from 9 months to 10 years old. The host was incredibly responsive to all of my questions. So much to do in Bryson City AND we saw the train pass EVERY DAY from the deck of the house!

The house was the perfect set up for our extended family vacation! The layout was great for holding a larger crowd, and was very child friendly! Will absolutely book this house again!

Came up for the polar express and cannot say enough about this fabulous place. Perfect accommodations. Kitchen excellently stocked with anything you could need! Such a convenient location. Just seven minutes to downtown Bryson city. The hosts were amazing. Easy to work with. Professional. And quick to respond to any questions. Will definitely return!

The house was very nice, however there were a few disappointments. The upstairs bedroom stated on the listing that there is a queen bed, but it was a full size with a severe sag in the middle of the mattress which was uncomfortable. The driveway was hard to enter and exit with my Corvette due to the sharp angle from the road in front, and scraped the new front spoiler I just installed which will require repair of the finish. Also, the WIFI was bad and took forever to download anything. There is no TV available unless you have a Netflix or Amazon Video account, so we couldn't watch any TV, and only one TV in the whole house which was downstairs. Kitchen was great and main king bedrooms were nice. Spent time on the deck, nice view. The couches and chairs could definitely use replacement as most were pretty broke down.
4.9
Beautiful property, clean, cozy, every room was conveniently put together. Many trails, fishing locations, and dining locations within a 15 minute drive! Don’t hesitate on this place!

This home was really nice, me and 3 of my good friends take a trip every year. It has plenty of room and we all have our own bathrooms. Really nice getaway. Will definitely book this home again.

Fantastic cabin in a great location and close to everything.

We traveled to share the same Santa’s Land with our grandkids that their moms enjoyed 25 years earlier. This house was a great home base for our long weekend trip. The grands loved the toy options and the adults loved the house layout and well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed making wonderful memories while at the house, s’mores at the fire pit, walking/sitting several areas provided outdoors, and definitely waving to the passengers coming by on the steam engine train ride that we saw loading up earlier that morning while we visited Bryson City for a delicious breakfast at Everett Street Diner.

Beautiful home and property, my family's second time spending a week here and we're already talking about a third trip.
4.9
We had 3 small families with 3 babies and 2 kids. This cabin was perfect for our needs. It was clean, comfortable and well stocked with linens, kitchen supplies and toys. From a thermostat for each level, to the comfy beds, to the room to play inside and out, we loved it!
4.9
The property had plenty of space to spread out as a family. The rooms are large and plenty of bathrooms. The covered deck is also great, along with the covered carport.
4.9
All six humans and one dog really enjoyed our stay. We particularly liked the wrap around porch where we spent many early mornings and evenings. Overall the house was very inviting with the two bottom levels being used the most. We enjoyed having no houses in sight and very nice landscaping. Although we were in our own private forest we were five minutes from a very nice grocery store and just beyond, Bryson City which was fun to walk through after a day in the park. In short we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to any moderate sized family group (or group of friends).
4.9
We had a wonderful time, the house was clean, had everything we needed and the property manager was very kind and it was easy to communicate with her. I highly recommend staying at this house

My family along with my Brother/Sister-in-law stayed for a week. The cabin was a perfect place to gather in the evening around the fire pit, play games, watch the SMRR train go by. For our group, the suite in the lower level was key because it gave my brother and sister- in-law a place away from the busy family area. However, the upstairs living area was beautiful and more than enough space for all of us to hang out, cook, eat, play games, etc. The kitchen was better equipped than any previous VRBO we've stayed in. The exterior area is beautifully landscaped and maintained. It's also very private, no neighbors that are in your immediate view. The location was super convenient to the grocery and to Bryson City (which is a really charming little town). It was also a good compromise for us... my husband wanted to be on the top of a mountain, I wanted to be close to things. The house is part way up and you do see mountain views while driving up though the view from the house is mostly trees (and the train!). Last, but not least, Stephanie was a great host and answered questions very promptly and made sure we had everything we needed for a fabulous mountain family vacation.

Exceeded all expectations! Beds were all super comfy, house is well stocked, location is convenient to tons of outdoor activities and shopping/ dining. Host was very responsive and easy to work with.
We traveled with kids ranging from 4-11, as well as grandparents. The house accommodated all needs perfectly. We spent a ton of time on the huge porch and enjoyed the large fire pit for hot dogs and s’mores.
Our kids were thrilled to be able to see the GSMR train go by right from the hill above the house. While in viewing distance- the train isn’t intrusive to the property at all.
We look forward to staying here again in the future!

Overall the cabin is much larger and more comfortable than we expected. A great place to unwind each day! The hosts were awesome as well! Very responsive and had an AC issue resolved within a few hours. Can ask for more than that. We will be back!

This house was perfect for our large crew.
Inside and out-Plenty of room to move about. I will definitely be booking again.

The house was super comfortable. Everything was great, honestly! Close to town and yet "tucked away" among the mountains!

House is great for groups with lots of room to spread out indoors and out.

We absolutely loved our time at this cabin! The beds were very comfortable and property was spacious. There is only one TV in the basement, but it was great to unplug and spend time with family. Internet worked perfectly and I was able work without any issues. The main amenties that attracted us to this cabin were 1) the limited number of steps to enter the property (my 85 year old mother was with us), 2) pet friendly, 3) step in shower on main floor, 4) internet, 5) 2 king size beds. Will definitely stay again! Thank you for sharing your home.

We loved this property. The home was beautiful and it meet all of our expectations.
Four bedrooms (with very comfy beds), each with a bathroom...what's not to like about that?!?! The kitchen was so well stocked, we had everything we needed to prepare meals for several people. I especially loved that there were two ovens. I was able to bake a ham in one and all the sides in the other. The two living areas were large for socializing and the dining table sat eight people, exactly what we needed.
The location was also ideal, in the country, quiet and peaceful, yet close enough to make a quick trip to the grocery store in town. The house and property is beautiful. I don't think the pictures do it justice. I might also add that there is plenty of space for parking (we had five vehicles).
During our stay, we had no need to contact our host, Stephanie, because everything was great. We will definitely consider returning for our next Family Reunion. Oh, Stephanie, thank you for leaving out the Christmas decor, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Great house! Lots of space for everyone and lovely outdoor area! Seeing the train come by is truly a highlight!
4.9
We loved our stay here! A little scheduling conflict with the cleaning and the AC didn't work properly upon arrival, but our property managers were incredible and got stuff taken care of quickly. A view of the train is a great treat for the younger kids and the adults enjoyed this as well.

Great Cabin
My family and I loved staying in your beautiful cabin! There was plenty of room for everyone, even our dogs. It was a great location for nearby adventures to the Smokey Mountains, railway, hiking, water activities and so much more. We were pleasantly surprised that we could watch the fireworks from the large deck on the 4th of July! Thank you!

Great home base for our adventures
We stayed in Bryson City with another family. The house was in a great location to explore the outdoors, and it was a nice place for us to all hangout afterwards.

Booked this cabin for a week with my husband, our two teens, and oldest son and daughter-in-law and their 3 and 8 year old. Everyone LOVED the train going by the cabin, and the three floors with five bathrooms for room to be together but get some privacy. Teens stayed on basement level, we stayed master on main, and oldest son and family stayed on top floor. Worked out perfectly! Proximity to Bryson, Nantahala, and Cherokee could not have been more convenient. Two minor draw-backs; no big Mountain View, and cabin could use a deep cleaning for cobwebs, dust, and dirty windows. Nothing outrageous, not an old or dated place, just time for a deep clean. All beds were VERY comfortable, great bedding and plush new towels. You will enjoy this cabin, especially is if you like the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and lots of bathrooms and comfy beds!
