About this property

Kingfisher's Roost- Waterfront Cabin w/Private Dock, Ramp & Hot Tub- Bryson City

Kingfisher's Roost is a luxury lakefront two-bedroom nestled at the mouth of Lake Fontana. In the Summer, you will find a calm oasis just outside your door, and after Labor Day, the lower waterline transforms the property into a riverfront home where you can witness the changing ecosystem. No matter what time of year you're vacationing, you will love the beautifully manicured path to the water and the natural stone seating, perfect for casting a line! Enjoy the hot tub or sit by the fire pit while you observe wildlife, or take advantage of the private dock and your own personal gravel put-in, right beside the home. Bring your own boat, or rent one from Alarka Marina, about a mile away.

Perfect for a small family, or couples' retreat, Kingfisher's Roost is furnished with two King Bedrooms, offering maximum comfort and privacy. With views of the water from nearly every window in the house, there's no better way to relax! The open-concept layout of the kitchen, dining and living room makes a perfect atmosphere for sharing family time and recounting the day's adventures.

When you're ready to venture out you can enjoy dining, hiking, and shopping in Bryson City, only about a ten-minute drive. You can also hop on the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad from Bryson City to Dillsboro and enjoy sightseeing through the mountains. Venture to Cherokee for a historical tour or visit Harrah's Casino for games and entertainment. If you fancy a trip to Sylva, about a 30-minute drive, be sure to ask us about exclusive spa and dining discounts with our partners at Fusions Spa and Foragers Canteen! Are you ready for the real mountain experience? We can't wait to have you!

**Lake levels fluctuate throughout the year. Even with lowered lake levels, fishing is not compromised and public access ramps are open all year, however, direct access from this property may be minimal during these months.

Week at Kingfishers Roost

We had an excellent week at Kingfishers Roost. The rental was outstanding and had everything we needed. The location was the perfect balance of seclusion with a quick drive into Bryson City. The river was beautiful!

Amazing cabin!

The cabin was absolutely perfect for our family! The location was amazing, and the cabin and grounds were beautiful! May need to add some more daily essentials in the kitchen such as pans, coasters, etc. We had a great time and would definitely stay at this cabin again.

The Perfect Setting

We really hated to leave Kingfisher's Roost. The cabin with the stream running by was as perfect as you can get. Peaceful, serene but close to activities. Clean, beautiful view and decor. I loved the artwork. The deck at night with lights was magical! We can't wait to come back!!

Thanksgiving Day Getaway

My wife and I decided to do something different this year and get away for Thanksgiving. Found this cabin online and really like the idea of the fire pit near the water. This was not the most inexpensive option available but was definitely enjoyable and very well appointed.

Very relaxing getaway

We loved the property. Peaceful, beautiful place. The water was just coming up so the fish weren't very plentiful but it was still a lot of fun. Nice firepit area. Great porch, good breezes. Would like to go again.
