About this property

Smoky Mountain Depot ~ Great Secluded Cabin in a Gated Community

This is a great secluded cabin in a gated community. The peacefulness of this mountain will bring serenity to even the busiest of those among us.

Stop in, enjoy a cup of Joe on the spacious porch in the morning and the coziness of a warm fire at night.

Our cabin is located within 25 minutes from the Nantahala Outdoor Center, the Appalachian Trail, Tsali Recreation Area and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. We are also located less than 30 miles from Hwy 129, The Tail of the Dragon, motorcycle run.

Check out Bryson City's Numerous attractions:
Whitewater kayaking and rafting. World class mountain biking, Fly Fishing, The Appalachian Trail, Great Smoky Mountain Railway.
Truly, there is something for everyone!

The Cabin includes a master bedroom with king size bed downstairs, and a loft with 2 queen size beds. All the comforts of home and then some. There is a completely remodeled kitchen with all Stainless appliances, gas stove, dishwasher, and even a heated tiled floor to keep those barefoot toes warm in the morning. It is all topped off with Oronoko Granite from Brazil.

Newly updated bathroom with new washer and dryer, all tile with heated floors and 2 person MTI Jacuzzi!

In the living area you will enjoy the beauty and warmth of a wood burning stove, large screen TV, DVD player and 100s of movies to choose from. Brazilian Teak graces the floors for a beautiful warm feeling. Sit and Enjoy the "G" Scale train as it runs around the cabin and even through the walls.

A note about pricing: VRBO keeps saying I should raise my rates, especially during peak seasons, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, e.t.c.
It has always irritated me that hotels e.t.c. do that. So if I want to enjoy my family during the holidays, I have to pay a premium???

I'm sorry, I think that's just wrong, so why would I do that to my guest? Prices are the same EVERY DAY of the year. If you want a holiday, summer dates, e.t.c. just book early before someone else does, and enjoy your family at the regular prices.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
