This place was great. Loved having the river right outside our door. We saw lots of wildlife including a bald eagle and some otters that swam over to the deck to say hi one morning. Wish we could have stayed longer.

The deck by the river was great, early mornings drinking coffee while watching 2 eagles sitting in a dead tree across the river take flight down the river looking for food. Kitchen was adequate, refrigerator small, but did the job for drinks and breakfast items.Comfortable stay for our trip to Bryson City to ride the trains, go to Clingman's Dome, and see the elk for a quick vacation.
