Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Bryson City
We have several children and found this was a great place for a family vacation. The children love the intertubing, white water rafting and kayaking, along with fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Some of our friends visit us and they enjoy the casinos in Cherokee and riding their bikes on the "Tail of the Dragon" Of course we alway like to come in the fall for the amazing colors with the changing of the leaves.
The Unique Benefits at this Home
The best part is the quiet and solitude, and sharing quality time with family and friends.
Owner's Map of Bryson City
We found this property several years ago and fell in love with the serenity, views and the campfires under the stars. We decided to build a cabin on the property make it large enough for our extended family to have a place to sleep too. The kids love being by the close to the white water rafting and Lake Fontana (especially taking out the canoe and using it as a raft to swim from). We just completed the cabin in 2008 and we love it there. We have our family reunions here and know 14 can sleep comfortably.
