The trip up the mountain is one that will not be forgotten! Once you crest the top of the drive you are greeted by a cozy and welcoming home/cabin. Upon exiting the vehicle prepare yourself for a breathtaking, gorgeous and unobstructed view of the Smoky Mountains! We felt at home here! The house is very clean and has anything you could possibly need! Sandy, the owner, is ready to answer any questions you may have and has provided lots of brochures for nearby activities. We rode, and highly recommend the Great Smoky Mountain Rail in Bryson City. I also recommend hopping over to Franklin for Sheffield Gem Mine. Rafting, hiking, dining and shopping are also in this area. This home makes for a wonderful place to relax and unwind between activities! We will definitely be coming back to Retreat in the Sky!!!

Over the years, we've stayed in many different cabins in many different areas of the Smoky Mountains. The Retreat in the Sky is the best we've experienced! The comfort and amenities are second to none, and the views are absolutely priceless. Communication from Sandy was timely and very helpful. We expect to visit here again in the future :-)

Retreat in the Sky is a beautiful, secluded property with all the amenities you could ask for! There are many activities nearby, however if you just want to unplug and relax, there are places inside and outside the house to do that. Sandy, the host, is very responsive and a pleasure to speak with!

We booked a couple months earlier and were looking forward to the getaway. The owners were awesome all the way through in communication and making sure we were happy. The views from the property are outstanding and the home itself is comfy and cozy. My wife and I enjoyed our stay very much.

It was all that it was promised to be. Awesome views, quiet, heavenly.

Great cabin. Beautiful view. Enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

First time ever to feel such comfort in a vacation getaway. Wish i could have stayed longer.

This is truly an amazing cabin high in the mountains. It is so cozy and comfortable with everything you need for a great stay. We enjoyed the fireplace and of course the peacefulness. Sandy was a very considerate friendly host who made sure we had everything we needed. She and her family made this cabin into a lovely home and I am happy they shared it with us.

This cabin on the side of a mountain truly is a retreat in the sky! We felt like we were in the clouds- it was beautiful and relaxing and well equipped. We had a couple of issues that Sandy addressed well. The sunsets were lovely on the deck and the town of Bryson City was charming to explore. We loved our dinner at the Bistro at Hotel Everett and the Food Truck outside the brewery in town was exceptional for lunch. Thanks for your hospitality, Sandy.

This was a very nice, clean cabin with great privacy. Pleanty of outdoor activities located close by.

This is the place if you want to unplug and recharge in a gorgeous, tranquil spot.

Beautiful home with great views! Sandy was very helpful with any questions we had.

This cabin is exceptionally clean and well furnished. The hot tub is in a screened in porch, so it can be enjoyed even if the weather does not cooperate. The view is beautiful.

We had a wonderful, relaxing, fantastic time. I would definitely recommend this place anytime.

Nice private property and view. Easy access to NOC, Bryson City and Cherokee. Well kept cabin. Great communication from the very nice owners.

Breathe taking view. Peace with nature, if you look and listen. Beautifully furnished and well equipped home, with everything you could possibly need at “your” home. It was the first house that we’ve been to, through VRBO, with everything we needed-plus, for our stay. You will learn why they call this the Smoky Mountains, because of the view from this the house. This home and location was exactly what we needed after a stressful couple of years in South Louisiana. (Hurricane Ida, Cancer & COVID-19) Excellent water quality. No Bears as of this writing… Thank Goodness!!!

The listing does not even do it justice. Once you get by the drive up the mountain, the cabin and view are fabulous. Well appointed, wanted for nothing. Great hosts and had a great time. Went with my sister and her husband so it was 4 of us. The view is still in our minds eye! Thank you

We stayed for 5 nights and what a fantastic getaway! It was really cold while we were there, but with the fireplace, it helped keep the cabin warm and made us that much more relaxed. The cabin is really well-furnished and there is about everything you would need in terms of amenities, such as towels, toiletries, a great little kitchen with plenty of dishes and utensils. What's really nice is that the drive is short into Bryson City, yet you would never know you were that close to any city at all. The elevation of the cabin is just over 2600 feet and tucked away in the trees and impressive mountains. Kudos to Sandy as this place is a true gem and there's a good chance we will be back to visit again!

Retreat in the Sky was exactly that. A warm, humble, loving cabin. Absolutely beautiful and well loved. Everything you need. The view is amazing. The owner was extremely helpful and a joy to speak with. Great, great place to stay. 5-stars in our book.

My daughter and I had a wonderful stay at this lovely, clean and comfy cabin in the woods. The beds were very comfortable, and all kitchen supplies are there to use. The host is exceptionally nice and easy to contact. The views are outstanding, and the cabin is in a great location for all that we wanted to do. It is convenient to Ingles grocery store, hiking trails, a winery, and Darnell farms. We mainly hiked, cooked in and enjoyed the views. We had a great time and hope to return to this perfect get away in the mountains.

Nice cabin, very convenient to grocery and all the other places you would want to visit. Very homey and comfortable and great communication with hosts.

We loved this cabin. Clean, beautiful view, quiet, just lovely!

Had the best time. Property more than a 5 star. Felt right at home -(comfortable ,homey and all the amenities). Awesome view from the deck and hot tub to relax after a day of hiking. Bryson city area perfect for exploring and hiking. Will definitely be back!!!

It was a awesome experience and we absolutely loved the atmosphere and the view was absolutely breathtaking.

Cabin was very clean, and everything was in working order. Had a great time

We really enjoyed our stay. Sandy is a wonderful host. The view was magnificent. The hot tub was relaxing. If you are up for climbing the little mountain to the Retreat, we highly recommend, as the views, peace, and relaxation are wonderful.

Very comfortable and clean with anything you might need. Plus, a great hot tub and screened porch. Wonderful high mountain view.

We were thoroughly amazed! The view is spectacular! The amenities were endless from spices in the cabinet to condiments in the fridge! So close to everything gorgeous that the smokies have to offer! An absolute dream destination!! We will re-book!!

Very easy renting the property. The view was beyond amazing as was the property itself. Short drive to Bryson City and Smoky Mountain National Park. Lots of things to see and do.

We loved everything about “Retreat in the sky”. They cabin was so homey and decorated so cute! They outdoor spaces were beautiful with a large variety of plants and bushes. From the back deck it makes you feel as if you are up in the clouds. Sandy and Ty were so helpful from the start in sharing information with us about the area, shops, restaurants, attractions. They answered promptly when ai had a question about anything. Everything that you can possibly need is at the cabin. It is fully furnished with a completely stocked kitchen, lovely bedrooms with comfy bedding and of course the hot tub on the screened in porch. It is a totally secluded property, which is so nice. We will definitely stay here again when we are up that way!! Thank you Sandy and Ty!!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Retreat in the Sky. Our schedules are quite busy and we wanted a place to relax with no agenda. We found it. Kitchen well-stocked, beds were comfortable and the bedroom in the loft had a beautiful view of the mountains. (as well as the living room) There were many items sitting around. We just moved while we were there and moved back before leaving. We took many backroads to experience the mountains, streams and nature.

Enjoyed our first GSMNP experience. Super convenient to the park, hiking, waterfalls, & Bryson City. Great cabin, even better hosts.
