About this property

Smoky Mountain Depot ~ Great Secluded Cabin in a Gated Community

  • This is a great secluded cabin in a gated community. The peacefulness of this mountain will bring serenity to even the busiest of those among us.

    Stop in, enjoy a cup of Joe on the spacious porch in the morning and the cosiness of a warm fire at night.

    Our cabin is located within 25 minutes from the Nantahala Outdoor Centre, the Appalachian Trail, Tsali Recreation Area and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. We are also located less than 30 miles from Hwy 129, The Tail of the Dragon, motorcycle run.

    Check out Bryson City's Numerous attractions:
    Whitewater kayaking and rafting. World class mountain biking, Fly Fishing, The Appalachian Trail, Great Smoky Mountain Railway.
    Truly, there is something for everyone!

    The Cabin includes a master bedroom with king size bed downstairs, and a loft with 2 queen size beds. All the comforts of home and then some. There is a completely remodeled kitchen with all Stainless appliances, gas stove, dishwasher, and even a heated tiled floor to keep those barefoot toes warm in the morning. It is all topped off with Oronoko Granite from Brazil.

    Newly updated bathroom with new washing machine and dryer, all tile with heated floors and 2 person MTI Jacuzzi!

    In the living area you will enjoy the beauty and warmth of a wood burning stove, large screen TV, DVD player and 100s of films to choose from. Brazilian Teak graces the floors for a beautiful warm feeling. Sit and Enjoy the "G" Scale train as it runs around the cabin and even through the walls.

    A note about pricing: VRBO keeps saying I should raise my rates, especially during peak seasons, 4th of July, Labour Day, Thanksgiving, e.t.c.
    It has always irritated me that hotels e.t.c. do that. So if I want to enjoy my family during the holidays, I have to pay a premium???

    I'm sorry, I think that's just wrong, so why would I do that to my guest? Prices are the same EVERY DAY of the year. If you want a holiday, summer dates, e.t.c. just book early before someone else does, and enjoy your family at the regular prices.

A couple of my friends and i stayed here for a getaway/retreat. We couldn't have been happier. The cleanliness was the first thing I noticed on arrival. It was immaculate especially considering it's a property routinely used for vacationers and camping. The view from the porch is gorgeous and the pics don't do it justice. It's also very private and peaceful. Our host was also very attentive and was able to accommodate us staying an extra day. We simply just didn't want to leave it was so nice. 10/10 perfect vacation. We intend to book again.

Beautiful home! Furnished with all the necessities and clean! Just make sure you bring the food and snacks you want with you, don’t go to the house first and then think you’ll go to the store. It’s a long drive up to the house so be prepared but it is worth it!

Cozy cabin deep in the mountains

Location is secluded and what feels like deep in the mountains, about 30 or 40 minute drive from Bryson City and national park walks etc. Was easy to get to.The cabin nice and traditional but with modern bath/kitchen etc.Great views over the valley.The train going round the cabin is awesome.

Christmas Getaway

Our family enjoyed our stay at the cabin and we will definitely be coming back. We went the week of Christmas and I had reached out to Mark before the trip. He was quick to respond and very friendly. The model train was a perfect touch to the cabin.

The view from this cabin is spectacular. Unfortunately, there was no outside hot tub, but there is a huge jetted bathtub inside the cabin that was nice. As Mark suggested in his instructions, it is essential to back into the steep driveway. The train was a unique touch and the wood burning fireplace was cozy.
