OUR CABIN INFORMATION:
Please note: There are no waterfalls on the property. Bryson City has 3 waterfalls, Cherokee has 2 waterfalls, and there are many named and hidden waterfalls off hwy. 441 as you head into Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Tn.

This property is a true mountain property in every sense.

This cabin and property is not handicap accessible or ADA approved.

We always recommend All Wheel or 4 Wheel drive vehicles when coming to the mountains, especially if you have never been to the mountains. The majority of our guests do not drive all wheel/4-wheel drive vehicle that stay at our beautiful cabin. To skillfully drive up the incline, drive a Constant Momentum of 5-8 mph. Our community entrance has a 12.2 degree paved incline then well maintained gravel road. Our driveway entrance has a 10.4 degree incline partially paved then gravel leading to a gravel parking area.

Our cabin is approximately 50 yards from the community entrance.

Our beautiful, adorable, "better than a resort" (exclaimed a guest), and unique 1 story charming rustic log cabin is 5 miles away from Harrah's Casino, and sits at a low elevation of approximately 2,400 feet. Our cabin is only 1 mile from the Tuckasegee River. Downtown Bryson City is approximately 10 miles away. Exit 74 (2 miles from cabin) will take you into Cherokee. Nantahala Outdoor Rafting is 15 miles from the cabin traveling west on Hwy. 74 and past downtown Bryson City. There are many local waterfalls in Bryson City and Cherokee.

For the safety of our guests:
**Similar to hotel security cameras business models, we have outdoor audio/video cameras. One is located at the front corner covering the parking area and the other camera is located in the back of the cabin which covers the garbage cans, well, gas tank, and a small portion of the picnic area. The front and back door camera/audio devices are for greeting guests.

And because we care about all individuals that enter into this beautiful cabin, we installed into the A/C handler, the I-Wave Ionization system that eliminates most viruses. This system eliminates over 90% of viruses and is a God-send. It works when the C/H/A unit comes on. We wanted to go above and beyond to install this ionization system; simply because, we truly care for everyone that enters this beautiful and unique cabin.

There are 3 parking spaces. This NEWLY BUILT Beautiful 1 level, 3 bedroom, 2 bath cabin comes with a ramp for those who have mobility issues climbing stairs. There is a platform walkway to the 5-6 person hot-tub from the covered porch. No more stepping on dirt or gravel if taking the steps from the covered porch to the walkway. The covered porch is 400 sq. feet ( 8 X 50).

Did you say you want some luxury? We give our guests oversize luxury bath towels, wash cloths and hand towels. Fall asleep on Bamboo gel foam pillows, gel foam mattresses and snuggle up with soft velvet quilted bedspreads in two rooms (King beds) and a comfortable fishing quilt on the other (queen bed) room. Nice cool sheets are waiting for your body.

You can tell how much we want this cabin to be special for our guests. We will love to have you visit and thank you in advance for choosing this NEWLY BUILT CABIN and including it in your family and friends forever memories.

Did you say Game Time?:

We also have a large outdoor Chess Game. Even the younger generations LOVE playing Chess. Such wonderful fun indeed!! But wait, that's not all. We have two outdoors Corn-Hole Boards, and a Jumbo Connect-4 Game. Fun for all!

Thank you Jason for the the 4-star review and stating, "very nice place.....everything else was perfect." In response to the bed mattresses, it seems like firmness is a personal choice and most guests truly enjoy the cabin mattresses. We have numerous requests for the information on the beds so that people can buy it for their own homes. Testimonies are in the comments and we also receive a lot of testimony personal feedback messages from our guests. Suggestion on future visits at a Host home is to first inquiry and ask the host if the beds are of a soft firmness and not like ours; which is medium firmness with a "My Pillow"soft topper on each bed. Have a Heavenly blessed year Jason and may you and your family have a peaceful year. Kindly, Gail and Johannes

This place was perfect for our family Thanksgiving get away! The house is warm and welcoming with all the perfect touches. From the Christmas decorations to the well stocked kitchen Gail and Johannes thought of it all. We were pleased with every aspect of our stay and the views were amazing!! This home is located conveniently between Bryson City (Polar express, great shopping) and Dillsboro (Great shopping and BBQ). We give this home our highest recommendation. We can not wait to comeback again!

Come visit our Smoky mountain log cabin, and have the best experience the Smoky Mountains can offer. Great dates still available.

Relax in the hot tub after a day of exploring. Cuddle by the cozy fire pit as you star gaze.

We designed and built this brand new beautiful and adorable cabin. Do you like one story cabins? Then come enter into our charming one story rustic log cabin. We wanted a more accessible cabin (without interior steps) for guests of all ages. Our beautiful cabin and property IS NOT ADA approved.

This Host has severe health allergies to animals affecting host health, and personally cleans after every guest leaves. And this host stays at the cabin during the year occasionally. Please no animals allowed. Thank you for your respect, kindness and concern for Host health.
