Many local small towns offer shopping and dining as well.

-- THE LOCATION --

Situated in the middle of the Great Smoky Mountains, this cabin is the perfect place to get away from it all while still being close to the conveniences of town. The cabin itself sits at the top of a mountain, providing guests plenty of privacy and unobstructed panoramic views.

A short drive will take you to restaurants, shopping, museums, and historic attractions of Bryson City. Take the night off from cooking and check out the local fare in Bryson City. Enjoy a comforting meal at the historic Fryemont Inn (ask for Sarge at the bar) or Everett Street Diner, go for a margarita and Mexican favorites at Guayabitos Restaurant, or get a taste of the local craft beer at Mountain Layers Brewery, one of our favorite stops.

There’s no shortage of activities in the Great Smoky Mountains. Make the quick trip up to Deep Creek to hike up to a waterfall or set up shop by a fishing stream, while mountain bikers take advantage of the nearby trails. Also enjoy many hiking trails in the area, rafting, trout fishing, tubing, zip lines, Clingman’s Dome and other attractions. The Casino and Golf Course in Cherokee is only 50 minutes from the cabin. Only 1 hour to Asheville and nice drive to Gatlinburg.

Amy and Dave's home is gorgeous inside and out. The views from the expansive decks are breathtaking. We felt embraced by the mountains. Inside was luxurious and something out of House and Garden Magazine. The hosts were helpful in suggesting various hikes and always available for questions. We never ate out because we wanted to return home to beauty. Loved cooking the kitchen. The place has a sacred energy.. hope to return. We are grateful for the experience.

The cabin is beautiful and well-appointed, offering a fantastic view from the deck and windows. All the appliances, furniture, and fixtures worked well and were very high quality. The kitchen had everything you might need. Great cabin! The road to the property is well-maintained, but they’re not kidding about how steep it is. You really need 4WD to get there smoothly, without tearing up the steeper sections of the gravel road. The privacy is worth it!

Amy was the most amazing host I have ever encountered with a VRBO and I VRBO quite often. I had the opportunity to run into her in person and she by far met my expectations by going over and beyond to help us. The house is absolutely beautiful with stunning views. The kitchen is stocked with everything you will need to cook. The king bed is very comfortable and cozy. The rest of the house has a great set up and the downstairs has every game you can imagine for family fun. I rented this house because I wanted to see if could be “the one” I want to build in the mountains … and it’s at the top of my list. The stars at night glow so bright while sitting in the hot tub, you feel like you are in another world. I would highly recommend not only this property, but the host as well. You won’t be disappointed.

This cabin was truly perfect for a quiet honeymoon! The views are astounding and pictures don’t do it justice. We spent most of our time at the cabin because there was so much to do and so much room to relax and enjoy the mountains. We enjoyed all the games in the basement and the porch is set up perfect for grilling and hanging out. The last few days of our stay we could hear visitors outside the cabin next door pretty loudly but that isn’t the owners fault, and probably largely depends on who is staying there. Overall it felt very secluded and quiet! The town itself is very fun to visit, and we went to dinner a few times and walked around the cute little shops downtown. We also visited the Nantahala Outdoor Center which was beautiful. The cabin was very clean and well equipped, and we didn’t feel like we were missing anything. The drive up to the cabin is a little difficult at first but once we got the hang of it we were fine, and it was more than worth it for the amazing views! Overall we had such an amazing time at this cabin and we would come back again in a heartbeat!

In the description, they mention the awesome view and they were not wrong!! Definitely one of the best views I’ve seen of the mountains. The cabin itself was very nice, clean, and spacious. The appliances are updated and of great quality. The game area has plenty of games to keep you entertained. The hot tub was nice and the fire pit area gives a very relaxing atmosphere. David and Amy are very responsive when you need them and they provide the most detailed instructions I’ve ever seen at a Vrbo property. This is definitely one of our favorite rentals!

My wife and I enjoyed everything this cabin had to offer. I think we may become future bird watchers! The cabin was clean and everything about it was great! We are thinking of coming up in the fall/winter months!

This is a perfect spot for a couple to escape to. This property was well maintained and clean. Honestly, the picture of the view doesn't do it justice. My wife and I agree the sitting on the balcony was better than a lot of views along the trails. When we got back home we were already missing this place. We definitely want to come back for another visit.
