Stacked Stone Retreat - Bryson City Luxury Log Home close to town

Custom built luxury log home that is conveniently located only about 5 minutes from town, 10 minutes from Deep Creek and Road to Nowhere, 15 minutes from the NOC and Fontana Lake. This home sits on 2 private acres that are beautifully landscaped so that you can enjoy peace and quiet as a base camp for your mountain adventure. Go hiking, ride the train, visit the local shops, restaurants, and breweries in downtown Bryson City without having to navigate a steep driveway! A huge deck extends the entire way around with a covered porch on one side where you can relax and hear the birds chirping or wave to the passing Great Smoky Mountain Railroad guests. A massive stacked Tennessee Field Stone gas fireplace allows you to relax in the main living area. Visiting for the holidays? A cook's kitchen featuring 2 ovens, a gas range, a wet bar and lots of granite counter top space make food prep easy. The master (King) is on the main level with exterior doors onto the porch and a nice bathroom that has a huge Jacuzzi tub and a tile shower. 2 bedrooms upstairs (1 Queen, 2 twins) each with their own baths. The downstairs has a large family room with another massive hearth, a bedroom (King) with a bath and double vanity sinks, another whirlpool tub and stand up tile shower. Internet, cell reception, and a desk is also available (a rare find in the mountains) if you need to do a little virtual work while you’re away. This is truly a beautiful home that we hope your family can enjoy as much as we do.

A pack n play, rocking chair, and children’s toys and books are available to make your vacation packing easy!

Great house, roomy and comfortable.

House is great! Plenty of room. It would be helpful to have a TV and DVD player in LR, so family can interact more while cooking, etc. Safe area with view of railroad tracks.

Beautiful home in beautiful Bryson NC

We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home. It was spotless and well stocked with everything needed to enjoy your time there. You can relax and do nothing or be busy doing a different activity everyday. The location is great, a bit secluded but close to most things you’ll want to do. We all had a great time and hope to enjoy another week there in the future.

Family vacation

This was an AMAZING property for our family vacation. Me, my husband, our 2 sons and their wives and our 5 grandchildren ranging in age from 9 months to 10 years old. The host was incredibly responsive to all of my questions. So much to do in Bryson City AND we saw the train pass EVERY DAY from the deck of the house!

Beautiful, Roomy Cabin

We rented this cabin because we came to Bryson City to ride the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad (GSMR). The depot was only five minutes away. This 4-BR cabin is very large and extremely nice. It has a large kitchen, roomy bedrooms and a porch that wraps all the way around the house. The gas fireplace is BEAUTIFUL! We liked it so much we are looking for a reason to go back and stay again. We really enjoyed the GSMR, too. If we ever go back, we will certainly try to rent this cabin again.

Want to stay again

We had 3 small families with 3 babies and 2 kids. This cabin was perfect for our needs. It was clean, comfortable and well stocked with linens, kitchen supplies and toys. From a thermostat for each level, to the comfy beds, to the room to play inside and out, we loved it!

Perfect for our family.

This 4 bedroom 4 1/2 bath home was really great. We always take our family on an annual trip for New Years. We had 4 couples so everyone had their own space. There were also gathering spaces on the main level and on the lower level which gave us plenty of room to play games, watch TV, or just watch our grandkids play.

Wonderful Weekend Home Base

We traveled to share the same Santa’s Land with our grandkids that their moms enjoyed 25 years earlier. This house was a great home base for our long weekend trip. The grands loved the toy options and the adults loved the house layout and well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed making wonderful memories while at the house, s’mores at the fire pit, walking/sitting several areas provided outdoors, and definitely waving to the passengers coming by on the steam engine train ride that we saw loading up earlier that morning while we visited Bryson City for a delicious breakfast at Everett Street Diner.

Very Relaxing Stay

All six humans and one dog really enjoyed our stay. We particularly liked the wrap around porch where we spent many early mornings and evenings. Overall the house was very inviting with the two bottom levels being used the most. We enjoyed having no houses in sight and very nice landscaping. Although we were in our own private forest we were five minutes from a very nice grocery store and just beyond, Bryson City which was fun to walk through after a day in the park. In short we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to any moderate sized family group (or group of friends).

Relaxing mountain cabin

We absolutely loved our time at this cabin! The beds were very comfortable and property was spacious. There is only one TV in the basement, but it was great to unplug and spend time with family. Internet worked perfectly and I was able work without any issues. The main amenties that attracted us to this cabin were 1) the limited number of steps to enter the property (my 85 year old mother was with us), 2) pet friendly, 3) step in shower on main floor, 4) internet, 5) 2 king size beds. Will definitely stay again! Thank you for sharing your home.

Great Smokey Mntn Railroad cabin retreat

Nice location, right next to Great Smokey Mntn Railroad crossing - twice daily. Cabin layout is great, with large family room & gas fireplace, extremely spacious deck. Entire family had room to play games in family room. Streamer lights outside with the fire pit was a nice touch, and spacious driveway. Only criticisms - no TP holder in main floor BR, no teapot in kitchen for non-coffee drinkers, storage space a bit of an issue for those staying longer than a few days, and downstairs BR needs a towel rack (more than just the little hanger outside shower door)
