It was a charming, welcoming home. We had everything we needed. There was plenty of room for everyone (5 adults and 3 children). In the 15 years we have been visiting the Polar Express, this home is in the top 3 and will definitely stay again. Hosts were exceptional and very responsive.

Great family home with all the necessities for an enjoyable stay. We loved all the special touches throughout the home from the fishing related items to the Christmas tree. There is plenty of room and the home is very accessible from town. We feel fortunate to be able to stay in this home where we know a lot of special memories have been made. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Great property in a great location

This property is a gem. It sits on a sizeable plot along Deep Creek, so there's lots of privacy. It's minutes to downtown Bryson City, and if you have a bike you could be there in 10 minutes. The property is also minutes away from Juney Whank Falls and Indian Creek Falls. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Thanks for the review. Glad your enjoyed our home. Hopefully you can come when you can enjoy the creek activities. Please continue to remember those in Western NC that are still suffering from the hurricane. So many are still in tents because they don't want to leave their land because of squatters.

On Deep Creek in Bryson City

This is the 3rd time we have stayed at Mountain Memories. It is like visiting grandma’s house. The location is great - 5 minutes from Deep Creek entrance to the Smoky Mountains and 5 minutes to downtown Bryson City. Very quiet neighborhood and on Deep Creek. Well stocked kitchen and level paved road to house. We will be back.

Great location tube right up to the door

Me and my wife stay in deep creek every year for a week. This was the best rental yet it was very clean great private location right on the creek. This place has everything you need by far the most stocked place they have though or everything. Don’t bother looking anywhere else this is the place to rent. I’ll be coming back ever year. Thanks for a great rental.

About the host

Hosted by Jim and Shirley McGukin

Host profile image
North Carolina family that treasures the beauty of the Deep Creek area of the Great Smoky Mountain and the comfortable feeling that you find in the town of Bryson City.

Why they chose this property

Going to Deep Creek has always been a yearly vacation event for my family- since I was a child, then with my wife and then with our children after we became parents. This is a cherished piece of Americana which changes in a way-but never really changes. This area is a peaceful refuge from the everyday pressures of the modern lifestyle. Whether one walks the trails of the park, sits and listens to the symphony of the crystal clear waters of Deep Creek, or seeks to outsmart that trophy trout, Deep Creek has something for everyone of every age. Since the early 1960's, tubing down the creek is a unique local tradition that continues to grow each year. There just isn't anything like stepping out to the early morning fresh mountain air and listening to the babbling waters of Deep Creek. We hope you can experience our little peace of heaven.
