This was the best stay ever! Everything was perfect. We took my 90 yr old mother and 92 yr old stepdad and they couldn’t say enough good about this place. I would recommend this place to everyone.

The house was clean and conveniently located near downtown. Plenty of parking for multiple cars if needed. Due to weather, we didn’t take advantage of the multiple sitting areas outside. We enjoyed that it was quiet, but we could be at restaurants or shopping if we walked 3 blocks. Bryson City is close to multiple entrances to the National Park for hiking if you don’t want to drive to the main entrance.

Nice out of the hustle place to enjoy the area. Easy walking distance to Bryson City downtown (such as it is). Lots of privacy. Gazebo is great for watching sunsets.My daughter found the secret code that bollixed the lock and locked us out, but Victor, the host, cut his shopping trip short and fixed it while we were on ours (thanks again). I picked here as a compromise between the luxury stay near Dollywood, last trip, and the rustic cabin outside Bryson City the trip before (not recommended), and because I wanted to stay in town. I would definitely book here again.Good price and no 4wd required.

Charming home with great location to multiple areas. The home is in town giving us the ability to walk to restaurants, shopping, coffee shops and the train ride. Bryson City is a quaint town worth the visit.

Great stay!

Loved the welcoming touches throughout the home. We enjoyed a private stay. If you are traveling with a toddler, gratefully there are child locks on cabinets in bathroom and under kitchen sink. The host is responsive and thoughtful. If you visit in the late fall/winter you'll love the Christmas tree!

My husband and I loved Victor's house. The location could not have been better... Walking distance to everything in town, yet quiet, with beautiful views from the front porch and swing in the gazebo. Loved the cleanness and decor of the house. Highly recommend staying here. Thank you, Victor!

Great Location!

We stayed over the 4th of July long weekend. The house was perfect as it is within walking distance to all of downtown Bryson City. The house had everything that we needed plus some. We would go hiking during the day and park at the house and walk for dinner and drinks. The owner was very responsive. We had a great time!
