We really enjoyed our stay here at the cabin and it’s so close to Deep Creek falls and trails-we even saw a bear after the Indian Creek falls road!! He wasn’t very big and he scared us just as much as we scared him! Bryson City and Dillsboro were our favorite places and restaurants. The train was a great addition. Will be back!

Great place to stay!

Such a nice quiet place to get away. Close to the Smokey Mountains for hiking. The deck is the perfect place to start and end the day soaking up the views. Comfortable beds and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook all of our meals.

Blue Mountain Cottage exceeded our expectations. It was so perfect. Decorated beautifully. Kitchen was so well equipped, we cooked most meals at the cottage. We spent a lot of time on the back porch. The wildlife was so amazing. So many birds! It was a joy to watch them and the bees and butterflies. At night you can enjoy the fireflies. Be sure to check out the coffeetable books and firefly art by the fireplace. We had a mama deer and her baby visit most days. We saw bobcats, bunnies.The artwork throughout is pretty special. Bob was very attentive and so easy to communicate with. Parking was very easy. The location was why we picked this cottage. We love Deep Creek, the hiking, and tubing, and waterfalls. Bryson City is so close and a very fun place. We absolutely loved Blue Mountain Cottage!Bob, thanks for sharing your special place with us!

This 3 night stay was wonderful. Everything from the location relative to Bryson City, the views of the mountains, comfortable beds and living room chairs, and all necessary kitchen needs were included in this stay. The only thing I can say to those who might bring children of young age is that the bathroom shower might require some creativity if you want to bathe the kiddos. This home delivered what I was looking for, which was an escape to the mountains.

About the host

Hosted by Bob Wilkins

Host profile image
We live in central Florida, but love to escape the heat. My wife and I finally retired in 2024 so we are using the cottage more frequently, but when we are not, we welcome you to enjoy our slice of paradise!

Why they chose this property

Location is hard to beat. Our property adjoins the Great Smoky Mountains National park and you literally are a very short walking distance to the Deep Creek recreation area. Easy access - no brutal steep mountain driveways to traverse. And downtown Bryson City is less than 2 miles away.

What makes this property unique

Mixture of modern and rustic, but very comfortable with nice views from our front deck. Lots of birds, and usually wild turkeys, rabbits, groundhogs, and deer can be seen. Occasional bear sighted.
