Dog-friendly mtn cabin w/ views, hot tub, game rm

Escape to our secluded mountain oasis where rustic boho chic meets breathtaking views. Enjoy a ride on the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, fishing in the Little Tennessee River, hiking in the Smoky Mountains, mountain biking the Tsali, and kayaking or rafting at the NOC. Unwind in the hot tub, by the fire pit, or in the game room with ping pong, darts, and shuffleboard. With 2 king-size bedrooms and a queen-size pull-out sofa, our cabin accommodates up to 6 guests for your perfect getaway!

Our cabin perches on a mountainside above a quiet valley, in secluded rural Bryson City, where it enjoys long range views from the cozy front porch. Its 2 king-size bedrooms and open concept living complete with comfortable queen-size sleeper sofa can accommodate up to 6 guests. The cabin boasts one large bath with double vanity as well as a garage-turned-game-room complete with ping pong, darts, and a shuffleboard table!

Newly renovated in 2023, the original structure was built by a Bryson City native for his daughter with all log and pine tongue and groove. We hope you'll find the new design by Kathy Boardman of Company 114 Interiors & Designs provides modern comforts and a relaxing boho chic vibe, while retaining the cozy rustic feel.

Outside our guests can relax and take in the mountain views while enjoying the added amenities: a lighted path, hot tub pergola, hammock chairs, porch swings, and fire pit.

After taking in the beautiful scenery on the windy mountain roads, you find our cabin at the top of a somewhat steep gravel driveway (which we scale easily in our low clearance hybrid wagon). At the top you will find plenty of level parking (we once fit 3 SUVs and a moving truck) and a lighted path that beckons you to the cozy front porch entry. While we welcome pets and children, we do require they be supervised (and the furry kind tethered) outside as the cabin is located on the side of a steep ridge and there is not yet a fully fenced area... stay tuned for our 2024 updates!

We make the entire cabin available and private for our guests. The only exceptions are a locked storage cabinet in the laundry room and the locked supply closet in the game room which are for host storage only. We also have a single ring security camera flood light that faces the driveway for the safety of our guests.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Great stay

We had a great time at this cabin. It was remote (which we loved) but had so much to do there (hot tub, board games, ping pong, etc). We were fully entertained the whole time. The cabin was clean and wonderfully decorated. We had our dog with us and everything was so nicely set up for him.

Fun little getaway!

Our experience at this little cabin was very good and perfect for our family of four and little dog. The property is very pretty and well maintained. We took advantage of all the amenities and enjoyed them all, especially the game room! The only issue we had was that there were a ton of dead lady bugs inside the game room, probably from a recent spraying we assumed, but we didn’t let that bother us. The lady bugs were also getting in to the bathroom through the window, but again, it was nothing that was worth complaining about. Overall, the place was very clean, decorated nicely and the extra touches and attention to detail were appreciated. We would definitely stay there again!

Great house

Location was tricky to find and sent us some wrong ways which was scary but once we figured it out, perfection! All the little touches. Great place, perfect for a small get together.

Perfect Mountain Cabin

Long weekend in the mountains to have a break from the hot Carolina summer weather. Couldn't have been more perfect. Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Game room, close to everything Western North Carolina Offers. We took advantage of visiting downtown Bryson City and going Whitewater Rafting at Nantahala Outdoor Center. The Cabin was a great home base. I would stay here again!

Family of 4 with young kids and dog

We enjoyed our stay and I loved how the house was decorated and appreciated the cleanliness and nice little touches like coffee and ice cream in the freezer. Would love to give 5 stars but can't for two reasons - the AC did not work the entire time we were there. Never got below 78 degrees in the house. We didn't want workers coming out to repair so we made it work with fans. Host was very responsive about this by the way but still a bummer. It's July and super hot even in mountains so AC needs to be looked at for next guests. Also, while we loved the drive there with the beautiful creek, the road to the cabin was a bit scary for us from Miami and with young kids and we did not attempt to drive at night. Finally, the game room was awesome for our kids but the room itself (a former garage I think) wasn't the cleanest and had dead insects and cob webs and again very hot even with the doors left open. Our dog had to be on a leash at all times bc of the drop offs which they did tell us about ahead of time but next time we will look for something with a fence or gate. Overall, a nice place and definitely well decorated.

Cute Place

We had decided to extend our vacation by a few days & the house we were at had guest coming after us so we looked for a place for a 3 day stay and found this. Beautifully decorated and very clean. Communication was great and we were able to check in a little early. It was a warm few days while we were there & Host was responsive when we let them know the a/c wasn’t keeping up inside. Other than that, it was great! Side note for anyone looking for a place that’s private/secluded, there are neighbors about 20 yards from the hot tub, you’re looking at their roof/house. We had no issue with it but some like a little more seclusion :)

Well appointed & peaceful

Owners are absolutely terrific and very responsive! We enjoyed our stay and loved the game room. It came in handy when the weather was uncooperative and we couldnt be outside. The porch swings were fabulous. Nice view. Everything was clean and just as pictured. I wasn't sure what to expect with regard to the water, but it tasted great and was in ample supply. Shower pressure was good, too! We brought our dog and he was perfectly happy also. There is a dog cage at the cabin, but we brought our own. Perfectly accessible to everything. We saw 9 elk down the road a bit in Cherokee. Enjoyed the drive through GSMNP to Pigeon Forge, too, it forces you to slow down and take in the sights. Bryson City has many offerings and we highly recommend burgers at Snak Shak and going directly next door for orangeade! YUM!

Perfect Birthday Getaway!!

Our daughter turned 21 and wanted to go to the casino, so we found this little gem close to everything! The house was beautifully decorated with all of the amenities you could want. They even had a little gift basket for the dogs. Alek was super helpful and responsive and the location is perfect. Hidden away and private, but a short drive to everything you'd need or want to do. We will definitely be back! Thanks for an amazing birthday getaway!!

Weekday getaway!

My husband and our two large dogs stayed here during the week! We wanted to have time to be able to work in a new space but also provide a way to not have to interact with the world. It was quiet and charming. Everything in the posting was accurate and Alec was VERY responsive when needed. If you need a space that is comfortable and accessible with no cell service (bonus), this is the place for you! We will return in the future!

Relaxing

This was a perfect little cabin for our first family trip with our 4 month old daughter. The rooms were big enough for her playpen and lots of places for her to lay and play. The cabin was very clean and pretty isolated. The only part I didn’t consider was the mud; it was raining when we arrived; it is not paved outside the cabin and when wet, can get pretty muddy!

Our stay was amazing and very much needed. The owners have created a very welcoming and relaxing environment. We did nothing, but unwind and enjoy the hot tub and fire pit. Thank you again and we will be back.
