This little cabin is perfect for two people or one great location not far out of town but far enough very clean. Very comfortable bed. Very nice host would recommend this place to anyone and if in the neighborhood again would stay again.
This was the perfect getaway for me and my husband on his 60th birthday. So cozy and spotless. The warmth of a comfortable bed and delightful hot tub made the winter nights very romantic. We will come back.

Everything was easy to use and the property was quiet and clean.
Our stay here was worth every penny! The indoor space was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The outdoor space was private and perfect. Relaxing, romantic, and fun!
We found Blissful Nook for our quick weekday getaway(Wednesday-Friday) and we fell in love!! It is the perfect size for a couple to reconnect, spend time together just relaxing. The location is just outside of town, but feels like back in country. We truly enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to stay again!
The Blissful Nook was perfect for a short stay. It was very clean and cozy. Would definitely stay again if it had a king sized bed. Location was nice....away from the hustle and bustle of town. Perfect little get-a-way for a couple's night out. Thank you!
This tiny house had everything we needed to enjoy our mountain getaway. So close to hiking and the charming city of Bryson. 2 nights wasn’t enough! I’m sure we will be back.
The property is ideal for one person or two people who want to get away on a tranquil excursion to relax and to take in the beauty of nature. If you are looking for quiet solitude, it is the place for you.
We had a wonderful, restful, relaxing and amazing 3 days at this beautifully done little nook. We stayed for thanksgiving and it was the most stressfree holdiay. We got to relax, partake in the property games.. soaked in the hot tube, enjoyed take a little walk to the creek. We fully enjoyed our stay. We look forward going back again maybe this coming spring or summer.
First want to start off by saying that Steven & Sue were the best host anyone could ask for. Even though the cabin is located on the property of the family home, they did not invalid privacy, they were quick with responses when I had questions. The tiny home/cabin was amazingly cleaned upon arrival. This was my boyfriend’s first time in the mountains/cabins and he really enjoyed it. I would definitely consider staying here if I came for The Polar Express Train Ride again. This couple deserves the 5 star rating!
This was a nice little getaway from the busy hectic work schedule a nice little downtime This is small but doesn’t feel small at all you have enough room not to feel cramped this was a first time here and I can say I will be back to stay again only down fall is not having a real oven even though this was a vacation I still prefer having to cook my food there is a decent size toaster oven but it Doesn’t do good for oven potatoes lol the cook top took a moment to unlock good thing there was an instruction manual for that
Great relaxing time I did stay an additional day. The bad bed needs to be a little softer as well as the pillows. The other thing is the hot water ran out seeing as I stayed an additional day but it was fixed by the time I returned. Thanks again for being great hostesses They were very communicative and friendly. This is beside other houses besides this but it’s private enough to feel as you your alone
This was the cutest place. Just as described and the location was perfect for Brson City and Cherokee. The host are so easy to communicate with and respond quickly. Enjoyed the creek sitting area. Very nice and clean just perfect for a good nights rest. Thank you for hosting me and i will definitively book here again.
The nook was OK - however, the pillows were awful! Hard! The bedding needs an upgrade. We are old and tripped going into the bathroom that has a step down, and some immediate ice availability would have been nice. The pictures - as seems to be normal nowadays - weren’t taken to show the reality of the rental. For the price, these things should be fixed.

It is a cute place
The nook is cute and cozy but in arrival it was dirty. The sheets had hair etc on them. We had to change the sheets.. wash the quilt and sheets shams. Blanket also. So if we had not taken a blanket we wouldn’t have cover until it was dried and washed. We were very cold the last two days. It was cold outside and inside. The heater isn’t big enough for the space. But the house is cute.
