Alarka Creek Log Cabins (10435 Lower Alarka Road Bryson City, NC 28713)are located just three miles from Bryson City - voted by National Geographic as the best gateway-town to the Smokies! We are easily accessible to all major highways and activities. The cabins are on four acres with a large trout stream dividing grounds that are beautifully landscaped with large trees, lush flower gardens, water features and rustic charm. The sounds of the rushing river will soothe your senses and awaken you to the beauty of the mountains! Whether casting a line for trout or just sitting in the rocking chairs on the creekside decks, you'll soon be enveloped by the natural serenity of Alarka.
(See the "More Pictures" link below for a picture montage of Alarka Creek Cabins in every season! Other links for the interiors and exteriors of each cabin can be accessed there too.)
Please note that the availability calender does not allow us to show which cabin and/or Suite is available for specific nights. If the calender shows "available" ... we have at least one open at that time. Please contact us to inquire further.
Cabin 1: The River Birch The River Birch Cabin is right on a fast rushing, clear river with a long rocking chair back porch just eight feet from the river's edge. It has a superbly comfortable king size bed, antique furniture in the bedroom ... and if you keep the bedroom windows open just a crack ... the river will soothe you into the "sweetest sleep you've had in a long time" (so say our guests, and we agree!). It also has a private nook with two bunk beds and a queen-size pull-out couch. The River Birch has a full dining room, a large great room with cathedral ceiling, a kitchen with a breakfast bar and a very nice bathroom. All are beautifully and seasonally decorated to feel like a comfy mountain retreat rather than a sparse hotel-like cabin. Most of the inner walls are log hewn though ... so you'll still have that cabin rustic feel.
Cabin 2: White Oak Cabin The White Oak cabin is also just at the river's edge, though higher above it. It has a rocking chair back porch and a stair case right down to the river's edge with another deck half way down that has a table for picnicing by the water. It too has a superbly comfortable king size bed and antique furniture in the bedroom and living room. It's decorated like an enchanted mountain cabin with little touches of the whimsical to make you smile ... and even has a rustic old out-house in the garden outside. Obviously there's a real bathroom inside for your convenience! :) In addition to the king size bed, the White Oak also has a queen-size pull-out couch in the living room and a breakfast table in the kitchen. A large old-growth white oak adds shade to the natural beauty of your surroundings.
The Alarka Serenity Suite: The Alarka Serenity Suite is quickly becoming the most popular of our rentals among couples. Though not a cabin ... the Suite offers the very best views of the creek. It is set down very close to the river ... and there are so many windows in every room that you literally feel surrounded by the serene drift of the water all around you. The decor is inspired by the old mountain life, using "rescued rustics", mountain antiques and special touches to make the Suite "the most charmingly decorated" of our three rentals. The Serenity Suite has a King size bed in the bedroom with beautiful linens and quilts, a comfortable full-size pull-out couch in the living room, a breakfast table in the full-size kitchen, a writing desk for inspired moments and all the other ammenities listed for our rentals below. The porch looks out over the creek and will make you want to linger on it with rocking chairs, a cozy swing and whimsical accessories. Candles are provided in every room for a romantic ambiance that will soften the heart and relax the spirit. Down by the creek, you'll find a sitting area with a fire pit for nights by the water. |
