Beautifully appointed apartment. Spacious, yet cosy. It's obvious Phil an has put a lot thought and effort into making this an oasis. Phil went the extra mile to accommodate us and make our wedding anniversary special. Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay.....thank you Phil

We stayed here for 2 days and had a great experience. The house was very nice and clean, and it’s in a great location — very close to Bryson City and the tubing center. Highly recommended!

It is a roomy unit in duplex
It is a roomy clean unit. Close to town. Price is good the only thing that needs to be changed is the sofa. It is super hard and small. It looks like it should be in a child’s room. With it getting Dark at 6;00 we were back at the unit. We are grateful for the adjustable bed because the sofa was so uncomfortable. Would stay again if they got a new sofa.

Great getaway in the mountain
My son loved the gaming table. We loved the attention to detail (gourmet coffee? Mentos, dove chocolate). This was a great place to stay with all the necessities of home, and i loved the new adustable bed. All at a good cost.

Comfortable stop off
This is a clean, comfortable unit that is close to downtown Bryson. We came to ride the train during hot June temps. It was nice to come back to a cool comfortable place! It offers everything you would need.
