Spacious home with plenty of privacy, shade, on five acres, paved roads
Location: Bryson City, Smoky Mountains, North Carolina, USA (1 hour to Asheville . 3 hrs from Atlanta)
Accommodations: 2-Story House on Paved Road, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)
Enjoy your stay in this beautiful, like new, 2550 square feet of luxury, with two stories for plenty of privacy. The view is so unique those working on the house kept stopping to enjoy it. "We have never seen this before" were words repeatedly spoken even by those born and raised in the area.
The house is nestled inside a mountain and overlooks the valley below. "It doesn't get any better than this" you'll say even before hearing the sounds coming from the creek below. Trout pushing through currents of the Alarka Creek will make any fisherman's mouth water.
The abundant wildlife provides a welcome background for the spectacular view where hawks are seen flying over the valley, wild turkeys cross the road, bobcat, deer and a black bear round out this natural environment.
You enter the house from the north on to the deck and when you open the front door you will be delighted by the Great Room and its 52 feet of glass windows and doors. The view can be enjoyed everywhere you look. The decor is luxurious with African Chestnut hardwood floors.
The dining area adjoins sliding glass doors for easy entry to the deck. Nobody is left out. Not even the cook. There is a full size kitchen with all amenities, granite counters and a breakfast bar, which seats five and everywhere you look, there is a spectacular view of the Smokies.
The Master bedroom is on the main floor and has French Doors leading to the deck. The queen size bed is comfortable and after a good night's sleep there is nothing better than waking up to the magical view outside. The adjoining oversized marble bathroom, has a large jacuzzi tub for plenty of soaking and a separate shower stall for additional privacy.
Then down to the lower level for fun in the family room. Shoot some pool, or play soccer on the fooz ball table and you keep everyone entertained. Families bond and get even closer by way of play, as we found out through a wicked game of foozball, making us all feel like youngsters!
You'll also find two oversized bedrooms, with views of the mountains in every room. One has a Queen size bed and a door leading to the bathroom for added privacy. The second bedroom is adjacent to the bathroom and also sleeps two.
Need to do laundry? Don't despair a separate room with sink and tub, large washer & dryer makes this an easy chore.
When in the family room,walk out the sliding glass doors on to the covered deck and enjoy the fabulous view, while staying cool. For your convience there is a downstairs refrigerator. Everything there to socialize with friends, which includes playing cards in the "cozy corner." It's wonderful setting to dine and take in the magnificent colors of the spectacular sunsets.
There are many wonderful things to do and we highly recommend rafting down the Nantahala, or taking the family tubing down Deep Creek and picnicing under the many shelters. Our son loves canoeing on Fontana Lake, or hiking the natural forest found all around us. The grandchildren like to mine for gold or gems and people like me, enjoy finding those bargains at flea markets and antique shops.
Everything to do is within a twelve mile radius. Shopping for groceries at the Ingles, only 6.5 miles away and for local entertainment, check out music at the river, or live theater in Bryson City. Don't forget to take a train ride on the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and if you wish to stay breathless head for Asheville 1 1/2 hours away. And, don't succomb to family pressure, if you just want to sit on the deck and rejuvenate the Spirit, taking a breather from it all!
Whatever you decide to do, we'll leave plenty of information to make sure your stay is both comfortable and enjoyable.

I enjoyed my stay immensely. The house is beautiful and when I sat on the deck I felt like a bird gliding over the valley. The rushing sound of the creek, the wildlike made it one of the best vacations I have ever had. A welcome change from the hustle and bustle of the city.
