We had an amazing stay at Cedar Heights! The view was absolutely beautiful and the perfect back drop for my planned proposal! The snacks and s'mores kit were perfect little touches. We will definitely plan to stay here again when we come back to Bryson City!

Relaxation at its' best is what this cabin offers. Super clean and fresh! Well appointed with everything you need. Bryson City is a great little town. We spent time riding our Can-am Spyder on Tail of the Dragon, Moonshiner28 and the Blueridge Parkway. Also checked out the Road to Nowhere. Super cool!

Great Cabin for small family!

This cabin was perfect for our small family of three. The hosts were amazing, as they had the cabin equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The location is super convenient to downtown Bryson City, as we only had a 3-4 minute drive to town. I would highly recommend to anyone, and look forward to staying again!

Great Hosts

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Hosts were wonderful! Cabin was so cute and very clean. A minute drive to Bryson city. We came to ride the Polar Express with our two little boys in town and this was the perfect place to stay! Loved that they decorated the inside of the cabin a bit for Christmas too.

This is a fantastic cabin less than a mile outside of town. Close enough to enjoy Bryson City, but secluded enough to be quiet and romantic. Super clean and very new. Enjoy a great view and campfire!

About the host

Hosted by Louise & Rick Deck

Host profile image
We are Rick & Louise Deck, and this is our retirement. :) We bought the property in 2019 and are currently, rather still restoring the 1910 farmhouse at the bottom of the hill. We knew when we first purchased that we wanted to put up a couple cabins for short term vacation rentals. We didn't buy an existing residential use and change it to vacation, the situation here for locals is dire, and we didn't want to be part of the problem.

Why they chose this property

The views are amazing from the cabin - every single time I'm up here I wonder why I live down in the "holler". Hopefully one day we'll be able to move on up!

What makes this property unique

Uniquely ours is that we are so close to Bryson City and all the wonderful attractions it offers, but have views like you're much further out of town. The driveway up is paved so incredibly easy access. Many vacation cabins in the area required 4 wheel drive. Easy to find, easy to access and easy to enjoy!
