The front door could use some updates with a more secure lock. The toilet was loose n the floor.

Overall I had a decent stay and this cottage was perfect for my couple of days in Bryson City. Only issues I had was I was only left with a single partial roll of toilet paper, there was hair in the shower, and the floors needed to be mopped. Other than that, no complaints. The host was accommodating and adjusted my original stay to add an extra night.

We loved the cottage. Cute open floor plan including bed, living room, kitchen area. Bathroom was a good size. It was very close to town which we loved because we always run late and needed to catch the train. Drive way was a little tricky, had to oull in the neighbors driveway to get a good angle ..sharp steep, bumpy incline that levels out. Thanks for the stay. Would stay again.

Cute and Cozy

Cute and comfortable cottage. However it is not a 2 bedroom and definitely not walking distance to the downtown area due to the steep road leading to its location, but otherwise it was a nice setting everything was great.

Great location! Nice little cottage stay.

Loved this little cabin! Christy, our host, was extremely communicative and available throughout our stay. Check in and check out process was very easy to follow. I stayed with my husband and labrador. Plenty of room for just the three of us with, a small yard space for the dog. The cabin was a really convenient to walk into Bryson City. We will be back to visit!

What a neat place. I traveled along for the first time to Bryson city and found this place to be absolutely perfect for what I need.**Car enthusiasts only: if you run a lowered front spoiler, you’re gonna find it hard to navigate in the driveway. It needs to be stock height or better.

Quick getaway to Bryson City area

Convenient to downtown and area attractions, we were in the area to visit waterfalls and it worked out well. Clean, no frills, plus a responsive owner.
