About this property

Creekfront Retreat • Hot Tub • Pool Table • Near Town/National Park • Rejuvenate

At Water’s Edge, life slows down in the best way. Nestled directly on Deep Creek, you’ll wake up to the peaceful sound of water. Spend your days tubing, fishing, or exploring the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, then come home to a relaxing soak in the hot tub or a friendly game of pool. With plenty of space for families and friends, cozy gathering areas, and a location just minutes from downtown Bryson City, this cabin makes the perfect balance of mountain adventure and laid-back comfort.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE STAYING HERE
At Water’s Edge, the mountain air is fresher, the stars shine brighter, and the sound of rushing water becomes the soundtrack to your stay. Wake up to coffee on the porch swing as the creek flows just steps away, spend the day tubing, fishing, or exploring the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and wind down with a soak in the hot tub or s’mores around the fire pit. Inside, there’s room for everyone to spread out and relax (people and furry friends alike), with cozy gathering spaces, a pool table, and Smart TVs for family movie nights. Just minutes from downtown Bryson City, you’ll have restaurants, shops, and breweries at your fingertips—yet your private Deep Creek home still feels like its own secluded world. Families, couples, and friends return year after year to this special spot where adventure and relaxation meet.

We stayed here for a long weekend getaway. We were so impressed with the organization and how well the house was stocked. We didn’t have to run out to the grocery store 100 times for all the little things. There was enough things to do for everyone - from the 2 year old to the 70 year old. This is a great place to stay in Bryson City!

Wonderful time on Deep Creek

2 families with 4 sons ages (22-17). Great location- close to Bryson & Cherokee for meals & shopping. Enjoyed tubing, hiking and white water rafting. Boys played billiards everyday, we had nice fires and sat at the water’s edge. Highly recommend staying here.

Piece of Paradise

This trip was amazing! The house was so clean and accommodating. The owners were easy to get ahold of and were so nice when we couldn't figure out the tv. We always stay on the river when we come to the mountains and this place was perfect for our family. We will definitely be staying here again.

Thoughtfully designed and furnished cabin on Deep Creek, just minutes from downtown Bryson City and the Smoky Mountain National Park.
