Creekside Bliss - Stunning Custom Mountain Home with a Hot Tub I Convenient to WCU!

Our home is perfect for anyone visiting WCU! Go CATS!

Escape the stress of normal life in the stunning three-bedroom, two-bathroom Creekside Bliss. Perched on a ridge overlooking the Smoky Mountains, this vacation oasis gives you a soothing place to unplug and unwind.

Upon entering this custom home, the spacious living room invites you with a gas fireplace, plenty of natural light, a queen size sleeper sofa, and ample seating. Watch the game on the flat-screen TV, or curl up in front of that fireplace with a good book! The adorable fully-stocked kitchen has plenty of counter space and anything you might need to whip up your favorite recipes. All cookery, flatware, and dishes are included for your convenience.

The main level hosts the master queen bedroom that is both well-appointed and relaxing. Throw open the windows and breathe in that clean mountain air for the best sleep of your life! Upstairs, you'll find an additional queen bedroom and another bedroom with two twins with a nearby full bath for added privacy.

Do you like to grill chicken or steak? You know what, never-mind. It's vacation- have them both! This cabin has a BBQ you can use for grilling. Enjoy watching for wildlife in the rocking chairs or soaking in the mountain views from the hot tub. Here in the Smokies, fireflies light up the night sky. You never know what you'll see when you're outdoors here!

With all the luxury that Creekside Bliss has to offer, you might not ever want to leave the cabin. But if you do, you are within minutes of any convenience that Western North Carolina has to offer, from charming local eateries to grocery shopping, to entertainment.

*" 1 dog, under 25 lbs allowed. Please keep pet off the furniture and must be crated if left unattended. "

This was the coziest cabin! It was perfect for being with our son for his WCU Graduation, with campus only 15 minutes away. The bedrooms were perfect sizes, the kitchen was well equipped, the bathrooms and closets were spacious. The outdoor space was perfect with rocking chairs, hot tub and fire pit. We will definitely rent Creekside Bliss again.

Beautiful new house

Really enjoyed our time at Creekside Bliss. It was quiet, peaceful, clean and new. The last quarter mile of road to the driveway was a bit steep and one of our older cars struggled with it, but we all made it and enjoyed a little get-together with friends before dropping our teens off at camp.

Loved our stay at Creekside Bliss!

This cabin has all the amenities of home. We especially enjoyed the large kitchen table for gathering and games. Outside provided picturesque views whether sitting in the rocking chairs on the porch, in the hot tub, or around the fire pit. Quaint nearby towns offer plenty of shopping and restaurant options. We will be back!

Creekside Bliss - An Appropriate Name

The cabin is lovely and exactly as described. Plus it was very clean. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed the many amenities such as the hot tub, outdoor fire pit, the soothing sound of the adjacent stream, warm fireplace, and outstanding mountain views. In addition it is convenient to explore quaint nearby towns such as Sylva, Franklin, Waynesville, and even the Biltmore Estate. We will definitely stay here again!

Mountain getaway weekend

My husband and I, our 1 y/o baby girl, and 2 of our friends stayed at Creekside Bliss for the weekend. The cabin is lovely. It was easy to “baby proof”. Loved the hot tub and sound of the creek near by. Easy drive into Sylva for food, beer, shopping. Sylva has a great playground for kids. Would stay again.

Relaxing and quaint

We had a great time at Creekside Bliss! It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. You have all of the necessary amenities. The sound of the nearby creek provided a calming background noise. Two things to be aware of: the drive into the community is steep and the stairs in the house are slick, so be careful going up and down. We went into the cute town of Sylva several times, went tubing and elk viewing in Cherokee. It was a lovely vacation.

Amazing

If I could give more than five stars I would. This place is beautiful and very clean. It sits at a beautiful spot on the mountain where you can see the horizon. It is very spacious and had a working washer and dryer that came in handy. It is ,by far, my favorite place that I have stayed so far. We will definitely be returning to Creekside Bliss!
