Beautiful Creekfront Views! Loved the sound of the rushing water. Leaves were beautiful this time of year. House is beautifully remodeled, with every convenience one could imagine. Furniture was very comfortable, as were the beds in each room. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back next year!
This trip was amazing! The house was so clean and accommodating. The owners were easy to get ahold of and were so nice when we couldn't figure out the tv. We always stay on the river when we come to the mountains and this place was perfect for our family. We will definitely be staying here again.
Wonderful family trip for the Polar Express! The home is excellent for families with children of all ages, great location and view, the host is a pleasure to deal with.
The house was beautiful and in a perfect location. We had everything there at the house we needed. Close enough to town and to all the excursions we had chosen.
This home is clean & well decorated with an open layout & very well stocked. The porch overlooking the river was a heavenly way to begin & end each day! This property is conveniently close to town while still being quiet & peaceful & away from the crowds. We loved this cabin & will return!
Thoughtfully designed and furnished cabin on Deep Creek, just minutes from downtown Bryson City and the Smoky Mountain National Park. My husband and I stayed with our daughter and son-in-law for a long weekend. We had our son and his family in for a family meal and football watching. Perfect location for a multi-generational family gathering.
Water's Edge was a beautiful house just perfect for our family! It was comfortable and spacious and met the needs of all of our family, ages 2-68! We enjoyed making smores by the fire pit and even spent some time in the hot tub. The location is so convenient to town and the creek makes the view incredible especially at night with the moon glistening off of it! We loved our time there and certainly hope to visit again!
This property has the best location. ! The house is perfect to unwind n relax the stream is REALLY in ur backyard ! And just 5 mins away from Smokey Mountain Railroad !!!
Sue and Steve are the sweetest ppl u cud ask for as hosts !! We will surely come back here next fall !
We had a fantastic time. The views from porch were amazing. Everything was great and just as described. We will definitely be returning. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and hospitality
We really enjoyed the home. We spent most of our long weekend relaxing on the back porch by the stream. It was a multi-generational trip but we all really had a great time from the 2 year old to the 78 year old! No one wanted to go home😊
We met up with another family and had a wonderful stay. The house worked well for our group and was comfortable. We have stayed at a lot of vacation rentals and with the river view, fire pit area, and large porch, it was probably the best outdoor space of any house. The location is also very convenient to Bryson City. We had one minor issue at the beginning of our stay and the owners were extremely responsive and took care of it right away. They also provided all of the info we needed before and during our stay. The property and its owners made this an amazing trip!
This property was very peaceful and had many activities that could be done either right there or close by. There were 10 of us and there was plenty to do. We went tubing, sat by the fire, used the hot tub, played non-battery games, enjoyed the front porch and took a train ride. It was a great time.
While this property has close neighbors, the landscaping is such that it feels very cozy and secluded. The fire pit and inside gas fire were wonderful on chilly mornings and evenings. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars on everything is because of the mattress in the front room. It really should be replaced.
Our host were the best. Home was extremely clean and our host thought of every comfort. They splurged on all the comforts of home. From the well stocked kitchen with every appliance and utensil to the comfy beds and comforters, to the board games and more for the kids. The creek sounds are amazing. We found a free app called Merlin Bird ID. It identified 15 different bird chirps and songs one morning while we enjoyed our coffee and breakfast on the private deck. Excellent location to enjoy all that Bryson has to offer. We couldn't have asked for a better home and host and we so hope they invite us back.
The pictures do not do this cabin and location justice!! It's beautiful. The owner was so helpful throughout the process. The cabin is newer or remodeled and the layout was perfect for a family of 5 with all grown children. The porch is wonderful!!! We used everything, the hot tub, firepit, porch swing. Perfect for tubing right to the house from the national park. We will definitely return to this house each year. Owner also has a house next door to bring extended family. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for the wonderful vacation!
Initial plans for party of six reduced to four. First, the house is at the base of the GSMNP and the Deep Creek Trail which was fantastic. Great layout, highly functional and spacious. Well designed kitchen, very well stocked. Pool table excellent use of space and thoroughly enjoyed. The back covered porch overlooking Deep Creek was comfortable and very relaxing. Likewise for the fire pit. Although adjacent houses, the positioning of the house limits exposure and affords a private retreat. The hosts were fantastic and near-immediate in response. We opted for the firewood bundle which was perfect for 3 nights of fires.
This was our first time bringing our new granddughter & family to the Polar Express & this home was PERFECT for our family. It had everything we needed and more and was so comfortable. And the swing on the porch was icing on the cake. We are already making plans to return next year & stay here again!
We stayed here for a long weekend getaway. We were so impressed with the organization and how well the house was stocked. We didn’t have to run out to the grocery store 100 times for all the little things. There was enough things to do for everyone - from the 2 year old to the 70 year old. This is a great place to stay in Bryson City!
