Perfect Get Away
Loved staying in a tiny house! It was perfect for my partner and me. Loved that it was pet friendly. The place could not have been cleaner or cuter. I was very impressed with the bathroom and kitchen area, roomy for a tiny home. The hosts were easy to communicate with and answered our questions in a timely manner. We will definitely stay here the next time we are in the area.This was our first time to stay in Bryson City. The downtown area is walkable and filled with cute stores and bakeries.
