Or if you prefer just stay at the cabin and go fishing. Spend a relaxing evening in,build a fire in the fire pit by the river, barbecue, or just read a book by the river or in your bedroom to enjoy the soothing sound of the water. The living room is furnished with brand new sofa, bench and chair. The kitchen is perfect for dining as it is equipped with new everything (fridge, electric burners, microwave, toaster oven, cabinets, basic utensils and cookware) etc. Bryson City is just 5 miles and Cherokee 4 miles.

Also includes towels, bedding, WiFi, cable, heating/AC and there are a few fishing poles you can use.

Location is convenient for day trips through the Great Smokey Mountains, to Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina, Asheville. Nearby areas to hike and enjoy nature. The central location of this property to so many cities, parks, waterfalls, etc., really is one of the most appreciated factors for our guests. See below for some example itineraries.

*Our guests recommend a day trip to go to various waterfalls and parks. In this order they visited: Tallulah Gorge State Park - deepest gorge this side of the Mississippi with a suspension bridge over the gorge/river for those brave enough to make the trip down the steps (more accessible view points throughout Tallulah Gorge State Park), then over to Isaqueena Falls- if you're brave you can also venture into Stumphouse Tunnel in the same area. By 1859, the State of South Carolina had spent over a million dollars on the tunnel and refused to spend any more on the project, therefore the tunnel work was abandoned. The tunnel had been excavated to a length of 1,617 feet of the planned 5,863 total feet. From there they turned back toward home and stopped at Dry Falls, a roaring waterfall which has a path you can walk behind the falls. Some pictures from these locations included to give an idea of local attractions to visit.

Guests have also recommended spending a day traveling through the Great Smokey Mountain and exit directly into Gatlinburg, Tennessee which they described as one of the most fun tourists towns they've visited with many attractions for all interests (they particularly enjoyed Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies) and fun specialty shops and restaurants on their main street. Also if you need a place for a couple extra people, the bottom cabin sleeps 2 VRBO #2471341

This was a PERFECT place directly on the river! We spent every morning having coffee by the river and some evenings cooking on the BBQ pit right next to the river. We could hear the roaring river from our bedroom. The host was very sweet and accomidating. We felt right at home. Also, close by you can go tubing and or white water rafting.

Perfect location for our trip to Cherokee, Bryson City and the Smokies. Centrally located and easy to access. The river in the back yard created a beautiful setting! Wonderful stay.

Loved everything about the property except the floors could use a good mopping. Kind of sticky. Would definitely stay here again.

The property was great and it was just as the hostess stated in the listing. Loved the decor and hearing the river and watching my family fish was great. We will definitely be back.

We were expecting a stand alone cabin but instead it was an upstairs apartment. Owners stay below. They were very friendly. It was clean and inviting. The view was beautiful. We also were prepared to cook in an oven for dinner. But found it only had a toaster oven.

My spouse and I read how location was great. Easy access to river. Admired swing and picnic table for lunch or dinner or enjoy the deck. I have several medical issues and had just found out my hemoglobin was 8.3 almost blood transfusions level. Scheduled to receive an iron infusion. Wanted to get away and sit by the river to calm and reflect on my upcoming treatments. The apartment is above owners home. Deck is down a hill, that of which you have to walk down and back up to the highway you’re sitting on. At a busy bridge! I called the owner just to see if we could get a partial refund or anything back of our 600.+ Only to be told how sick she was and we could go over between the bridge and the neighbors to drive down to the river. We did that and the swing and picnic table were rotten. My husband 195 lbs sat on the swing and a board broke. We did not stay. We locked up and went somewhere else. We were very disappointed with the location and the owners lack of compassion. Would not recommend if you’re not capable of a hike down and back up a nice hill from the water.
