About this property

Mitchell Cabin-1870 Farmhouse with modern amenities-Fire Pit-Picnic Area

This cozy 1 bedroom 1 bath cottage was built in 1870 by William Butler Garrett then down to his great grandson, Dr. William E. Mitchel. The property was restored as originally built, log by log, by Garrett's great-great granddaughter & family. Logs were marked & moved & restored for the front room, exactly as it stood in 1870, adding the modern amenities.

Open floor plan front room features the living room with fireplace (available beginning Sept 15) & full furnished kitchen. Decorated in farmhouse fashion with the modern amenities for todays guests. Large bedroom has a queen bed. Full bath with tub/shower combination.

Nice large yard with firepit & picnic area overlooking a gorgeous farm setting surrounded by the mountains. The covered porch is the perfect place to take in the beauty of the area.

Close to downtown Bryson City while still being in a private setting with easy access. Perfect for a couples getaway.

5 Star

The Mitchell Cabin is a gem! The property and views are stunning. My family and I loved watching the goats on the neighboring farm each morning. The loft is not useable however an air mattress and the pull out couch worked for our family of four. A wonderful stay!

Thanksgiving visit to Bryson City and Western NC

Beautiful rustic 1800s log home, with all the amenities one could needed, tucked away in a quiet holler. Views were just as advertised and enjoyed the goat farm duties from the front porch. Even got to meet the owner, which briefly explained the history of the home. If we have the opportunity to stay here again, hope she comes by for a visit. Could certainly listen to a longer version. If you’re in the area, and want a quiet place for 2, minutes away from downtown BC, you wont be disappointed.

Peaceful Place

This property has recently been renovated and is just right for a couple! Great attention has been given to small details in decorating and representing the history of the family. It is beautiful! Bring your food to cook and any specialty items and you will be set. Property has eating utensils, cooking utensils, dishes, pitchers, cookware, cutting boards, a grill, microwave, etc. Remember to bring your hair dryer if you need one and any personal bath products (body washes, shampoos, etc.). There is a washer and dryer if you need it during the stay but be sure to bring a small container of laundry detergent. We brought outdoor games and a hammock to enjoy the property even more. The goats are fun to watch across the way while you rock on the front porch. The property is easy to get to and has a great gravel parking area. Few steps to the porches and one level throughout in case that may be a worry for you. The rental company is responsive to phone calls and emails before your stay. We didn't need to contact during stay. Overall - would not hesitate to stay again. :)

We could wake up everyday to that peaceful scene. We just wish we could have stayed another day!!

Mitchell cabin

This cabin was just perfect for our 40th anniversary. Great ambiance. So many mountain cabins are deep in a hollow, and can be disconcerting for a flatlander, due to the lack of sunlight. But the Mitchell cabin sits on the edge of a cleared hollow, with a goat farm. So it is sunny, yet trees shade it. You can sit on the porch and watch the goats, and just chill. The cabin has everything you need. Good wifi, good TV, gas grill, plenty of utensils if you want to cook. It is filled with many memories of the Mitchell family. We will be back.
