5/5 Stars – Perfect Cozy Stay in the Heart of Bryson City!

We had an amazing stay at this charming cottage! The location is unbeatable—just a short and easy walk to downtown Bryson City and the railway. We visited for the Polar Express and had a wonderful time. Even my elderly stepfather, who struggles with stairs and walking, was able to make the trip effortlessly.This is a classic small mountain town with a mix of older homes, which adds to its charm. If you’re expecting modern luxury homes, this isn’t the area—but the cottage itself is like visiting Grandma’s house in the best way. It’s quaint, cozy, and so welcoming.The house was immaculately clean, which is a big deal for me. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. The host even left us holiday shortbread cookies, which was such a sweet touch! There’s also a hot tub, Wi-Fi, smart TVs, and little extras like a foosball table and games.We brought my parents’ dogs along, and it was such a relief to have a pet-friendly place where they could join us. The host was kind and accommodating, and while we didn’t need anything during our stay, I felt confident they’d have helped if we had.This cottage was the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. It’s reasonably priced, incredibly close to everything, and just felt like home. We’ll definitely stay here again next time we visit Bryson City. Highly recommend!Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Nice interior but not much curb appeal

Photos are very accurate in terms of the interior which was clean and spacious. The neighborhood was very run down and didn’t feel very safe. The hot tub was functional but needed to be maintained a bit (chemicals)

Too bad about the trailers

The online description of the house overlookg the river from the front porch sounded inviting. But the view fromt the porch was of three or four trailers and maybe beyond sometall w eeds there was a river but we couldn't see it. Everything ele was fine.

Peaceful

Home is an older home but not in a bad way. More in a nostalgic way. We loved it. I love the wooden floors and the doors that separate the kitchen from the living room. Wish the fireplace was in use but other than that we loved having coffee on the porch and smelling the cool mountain air. We will stay again in the future!

Dated but, clean

The interior of the house is dated but, clean. I noticed that a few other reviews stated that the home was not clean. We did not find that to be the case. It could use an overhaul of interior updates however, it was a clean place to lay our heads take a shower. Although we didn’t cook most of the necessities seemed to be there. The only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star on all categories is the fact that you can walk to Bryson city at your own risk. There are no sidewalks and to no fault of the property owner vehicles fly up and down that road so we didn’t chance it. The neighborhood made me a little skeptical at first but it is very quiet and seemed perfectly safe. Overall it was a good stay.

Close to downtown Bryson City

Super close to downtown. Property manager answered questions quickly and was really nice. Really convenient for anyone staying for the Polar Express train. Perfect place for a small family to stay. Loved the covered hot tub porch!
