Hillside Haven is a cute little home that is set up with your every need in mind. Inside, the home is set up with nice comfortable furnishings and flat screen SMART TV with Direct TV in the living area. Perfect spot to relax after a long day of exploring Bryson City and the Smoky Mountains. The fully stocked kitchen has everything you need to make a nice meal right in the comfort of "home." The master bedroom features a queen sized bed and flat screen SMART TV with Direct TV. The secondary bedroom is also equipped with a queen bed and a flat screen SMART TV. The bathroom features a tub/shower combo and for guest convenience there is a separate large laundry area with washer and dryer. The outdoor area of the home is the true drawing feature. There is a nice large covered back deck, which is perfect for enjoying a nice cup of coffee or taking a soothing dip in the hot tub. There is also ample yard space, which is great for little ones to run around a bit outside and burn off some energy - all of course while enjoying the mountain view. This unit is cooled by window units in the summer time. It has paved, easy access right up to the parking area, so this home is perfect for those not looking to drive on windy, mountainous roads OR perfect for those traveling on motorcycles.

If you're interested in a little nightlife, you can also visit Harrah's Cherokee Casino. If you're looking for more adrenal pumping outdoor adventure, take a 15 minute drive over to the Nantahala River Gorge, which is famous for whitewater rafting, kayaking, fishing, hiking, ziplining, and horse back riding.

It was a really nice cabin, very very clean. Views were awesome, close to town, hot tub was great. I would definatly stay here again! The only thing that i would suggest is that you left more toilet paper 1 roll for 4 people for 3 days isn't enough. Other then that it was fabulous

Smoky Mountain get-away

Cabin was very clean, comfortable and extremely well-maintained. Great mountain view but I would have preferred much more privacy. Trailer park around the corner made the neighborhood seem a little shabby and the neighbor across the street was way too interested in our comings and goings. Proximity to town and GSMNP was convenient.
