Our brand new luxury log home, only three miles from downtown Bryson City, North Carolina features over 2800 square feet of spacious living. The furnishings are upscale and the amenities are numerous. We have done our best to make this your home away from home.
Located on a quiet mountain ridge with beautiful mountain views, Sophie’s Choice is naturally landscaped with a groomed, flat side yard for playing or simply relaxing. Yard includes a firepit and horseshoes. Leather furniture, hardwood floors, granite/travertine countertops, and log-wall interior are just some of the ways that we have brought the outdoors in to truly make this your dream mountain get-away.
The large great room has a leather sofa, 2 leather chairs and large leather ottoman that face a gorgeous hand-crafted stone gas fireplace with flat screen TV over head and high definition satellite. It has three sets of French doors that open onto the expansive deck where you’ll find Adirondack chairs and a hot tub for gathering, watching the beautiful sunrise, enjoying the mountain view, or stargazing in the evening.
This spacious living/dining area features a slate pool table for your entertainment and a dining table that seats eight with additional bar counter seating for two.
Your kitchen is appointed with granite countertops and all new appliances including refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, and toaster. We also provide you with all of the dishes, utensils and pots & pans that you’ll need. A gas grill is also provided and a spacious mud room houses a full sized washer & dryer for your convenience.
The great room has a cathedral ceiling and beautiful staircase that leads to the bedrooms and bath upstairs. The upstairs level has an open hallway that overlooks the great room. The two upstairs bedrooms share a bathroom that features a large old-world style vanity and Jacuzzi tub with shower.
To accommodate your sleeping needs, our 3 bedroom/2.5 bath log cabin has been designed to help you relax and get a restful night’s sleep in one of our comfortable pillow-top beds with all-cotton linens, feather down pillows and luxurious décor.
The large master suite is down a short hallway off of the great room. It has a king-size bed, large walk-in closet and private bath featuring a travertine vanity, Jacuzzi tub and separate tiled shower. French doors open to the deck, only steps away from the hot tub. A small sitting area has been created with two stylish, comfortable chairs and a TV entertainment center housing a CD/DVD player and high definition satellite.
Upstairs, bedroom 2 features wooden French doors opening to a spacious room with a beautifully ornate queen-size sleigh bed, matching nightstand and walk-in closet. Bedroom 3 has been designed as another private bedroom or for all of the “extra sleepers”. It features two queen-size beds and a futon couch that can fold out for additional sleeping.

We came to your cabin to share some special moments with our beloved friends from home - Knoxville. What we found surpassed our wildest dreams. Your cabin was warm and inviting, and it offered us a refuge from the world and it's woes. We laughed, loved, shared tales of days gone by and truly rekindled the spirit of true friendship. Meeting Steven and a few of the neighbors was an added bonus. We also enjoyed Bella, Sadie & Charcoal, and I must admit we spent time outside enjoying their company. Please know that we will leave here filled with the knowledge that nothing compares to the love shared by friends and the bond that grows stronger with every passing day. Thank you for sharing "Sophie's Choice" and know that we will return in the late Spring.

Greetings from Miami!!! This was our third trip in all and second to Smokey Mountains. This was the nicest cabin with great amenities, like interior design & beautiful views. The thought put by the owners in the cabin decor put a warm & homey touch and we enjoyed our entire stay here. Thanks to the guard dogs who made us feel secure and part of the family during our stay here. The only glitch during our stay was the muddy ramp where our car got stuck. But the road has been completely regrated to avoid this from happening in the future. Thanks to Steven & Sue for letting us use their cabin.

Beautiful!! Simply BEAUTIFUL! Our stay was short but our memories will last us a lifetime! My name is Karen and back in October I had the idea to gather as much of my family together and check out the Polar Express for Christmas. Well, that search led to the idea to rent a cabin...and just a few short clicks later and I was on the Sophie's Choice home page. I researched for a few weeks and kept coming back to Sophie's Choice...I am SO GLAD I did! My grandmother (82), my father (62) and my mother (62) drove in from Wilson, NC and my husband (44), daughter (7) and myself (38) drove in from Matthews, NC. I have to say that a good time was had by all! No matter age! We were so pleased with this cabin, it's location and most important...the Welcome Wagon trio of Charcoal, Sadi & Bella. These 3 pups are the cherry on top! How loving and protective!! The train ride was TOPS, the hot tub a huge hit and the fire pit plus (at least) a gazzillion stars were amazing! The pool table too! I did not get the chance to meet Steven or Sue in person...I regret that but have every intention to stay again this summer and try out the RIVER! My grandmother, father and mother got the chance to meet Steven...they said you could not have been any nicer and friendly...thank you for making them feel welcome. We are now packing up and heading in our separate directions, but our hearts are filled with the spirit of Christmas and the comfort of this beautiful cabin. I am so glad I chose Sophie's Choice...it's my choice now too! God Bless, Karen Dixon

What a wonderful time we had while we stayed at your cabin. It was nice and open for the 3 adults & 3 children we had. I must say that the 2 dogs were really the highlight of the cabin for our kids. We had to keep them from wanting to invite them in to curl up by the fire with us. They really did add a nice warm touch to the whole thing. I enjoyed sitting on the deck with coffee and the dogs. It's almost as if they think their job is to protect you. They are so sweet! The 1st night we had the pleasure of meeting Steven (the owner of the cabin) and adorable Sophie herself. They were so welcoming and we definitely would like to come back for some family fun of whitewater rafting. Tonight we go on the Polar Express, this will be our 3rd year and it seems like every year we luck out with a better place to stay. Last year we stayed at the Watershed Cabins which was very nice but very expensive. I didn't think we would be able to find anything as nice but this cabin has certainly surpassed our expectations. The friendly, family atmosphere, beautiful views, cozy fire, did I mention the dogs. It really felt like a home away from home. I love the fact that there is somewhat of a yard for the kids to run and play. Everything was perfect and we are looking forward to returning sooner than later. -- The Mason Family

Thank you for extending a warm and true mountain top hospitality for our families. We stayed here during our trip to ride the Polar Express. Everything was idyllic and peaceful. We'll always have wonderful memories of our children playing throughout the house. Fondly, The Ports & Allens

What a great cabin! We visited Bryson City to take our two boys, 6 & 3, on the Polar Express. Their favorite part of our cabin stay were the two dogs which our 3 years old referred to as "our dogs". They hiked with us, slept on the deck and were great watch dogs. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool table. We hiked Ringo Falls and tried to hike to Clingman's Dome - however, the road was closed due to snow which was ok because the boys had their first snowball fight for we don't get much snow at the beach in Wilmington. We enjoyed our Thanksgiving here, the first Turkey Day for the cabin! -- Amy, Curt, Kyle & Rhyen

We enjoyed Thanksgiving in the mountains with our Grandsons. They loved everything. I always wanted a log house and yours gave us some great ideas. What a perfect place to relax and enjoy the scenery! -- Jill & Barry Batman
