This 3 night stay was wonderful. Everything from the location relative to Bryson City, the views of the mountains, comfortable beds and living room chairs, and all necessary kitchen needs were included in this stay. The only thing I can say to those who might bring children of young age is that the bathroom shower might require some creativity if you want to bathe the kiddos. This home delivered what I was looking for, which was an escape to the mountains.

Fresh Clean and Quite

Location was close enough to Bryson City to easily access as well as all outdoor activities that attracted us to the mountains. Started each day with a fully charged EV to explore and have fun. The accommodations were outstanding. Bob provided a very helpful list of local dining options. Definite do over!

We appreciated the ease of check-in with helpful information provided by the property owner, His list of area restaurants is the best! Parking and entry to the house for loading and unloading was super convenient. We found the cottage extremely clean, comfortable and quiet. The kitchen is well equipped for people that like to cook. The location on the NE edge of Bryson City is super close to the park and away from the bustle of town. The front porch edged by the biggest hydrangea we've ever seen was a relaxing place to end the day.

About the host

Hosted by Bob Wilkins

Host profile image
We live in central Florida, but love to escape the heat. My wife and I finally retired in 2024 so we are using the cottage more frequently, but when we are not, we welcome you to enjoy our slice of paradise!

Why they chose this property

Location is hard to beat. Our property adjoins the Great Smoky Mountains National park and you literally are a very short walking distance to the Deep Creek recreation area. Easy access - no brutal steep mountain driveways to traverse. And downtown Bryson City is less than 2 miles away.

What makes this property unique

Mixture of modern and rustic, but very comfortable with nice views from our front deck. Lots of birds, and usually wild turkeys, rabbits, groundhogs, and deer can be seen. Occasional bear sighted.
