Nestled along the banks of Deep Creek just outside downtown Bryson City, this quaint, two-bedroom cabin is your ticket to experiencing the splendor of the Great Smoky Mountains. This rental offers easy, year-round access to all the attractions including hiking, fishing, swimming, and sight-seeing. At the cabin, enjoy the peaceful serenity of creekside ambiance. A outdoor, stone firepit offers a relaxing setting to relax with friends and family while listening to the burble and flow. In the summer months, it's a cooling spot for a dip - kids will love splashing in the shallow water while hunting for crayfish under rocks. Deep Creek is also popular among anglers as a hotbed for brown trout.

The home's single-level layout warmly welcomes guests with comfortable furnishings and modern essentials including free WiFi and a private washer/dryer. The living room offers a cozy gathering place for group downtime, with a sofa and easy chairs, plus a large, wall-mounted smart TV. The full kitchen is well-equipped for homemade meals and includes a dishwasher for easy clean up. A dinette in the kitchen offers seating for four. In the mornings, breath in the crisp mountain air while enjoying a cup of coffee from one of the classic, wood rocking chairs on the covered front porch.

When you are ready to explore, you'll find no shortage of things to do and see. Head into downtown Bryson City for local shopping and dining or to catch the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad. The popular, Deep Creek Trailhead, leading to three waterfalls, is an easy hike loved by all just three miles away.

The area was good as it was close to town and right by the creek that my son liked skipping rocks and fishing. However, the inside was outdated and had a musty smell. The comforters smelt musty and we needed to wash them. Bathroom sink was slow to drain. We found a few live spider and my wife/son hate spiders. One of the smoke alarms had low battery and started chirping, luckily it started on the morning and not at night when we were sleeping. The heater in the living room didn’t turn on when we arrived late at night but the next morning I checked the breaker and that was tripped. It worked after I fixed it. The place has potential but needs some TLC…

We had a wonderful stay overall. However, unless the AC situation gets fixed, we probably won't stay they next year. The last time we stayed there, the AC was temperature controlled AC. This time there was window units in the bedrooms and living room. The windows that the AC units were in didn't have proper coverage. The grass hadn't been mowed. I hope the AC issue gets fixed. Sleeping in the bedroom with the AC unit running was like sleeping in a room with a vacum cleaner running all night. The network name and password that were given were not right but I rebooted the router and used the network name and password that were on the label of the router. I want to stay there again but not with window air.

Simple on the creek
We spent an evening just laid on a blanket at the creek in the back yard . It’s one mile to the train , and town . Good location. Easy to get to , not a strenuous drive or driveway . We will plan to stay again next time if available.

Great location
We loved the close proximity to town, definitely not safe to walk but very easy to drive in. During our stay we went to Waynesville, Cherokee and even ended up in Gatlinburg with no trouble. Definitely a good location to stay. I do recommend bringing your own wood if you’re looking to have a fire! The Italian restaurant in town was amazing, get there early!

The house is very nice and well equipped with kitchen ware. House was clean and large rooms and everything worked. Area was quite and relaxing with creak next to it. The area was close to Bryson City and train depot with short drive to Cherokee.

Very nice with one big fault.
Trash was leftover from last tenant. One roll of tissue paper is not enough for 2 for a week. Got sorry from property manager for Trash, with its picked up weekly, not,we were there 8 days. If not for that it would have been 5 stars all around

Regular
the place is very nice, but when we got to the property it smelled a bit bad. We entered the bedrooms and they smelled ugly. The closets were full of blankets on the carpet, they were not folded, we could not store clothes, but at night when we tried to take a shower, we realized that the curtains were very dirty, with moo, hair and dog food on the floor.

The best!
We loved this beautiful home right on the Deep Creek. We loved that it was peaceful and quiet but also a quick drive to the town to explore and eat! So many little restaurants and things to do. Great location and we will be coming back!

Property was nice, convenient to town and the surrounding area, and had most everything we needed. The 2nd bedroom, which we did not use, had a strong urine smell. We closed the door to contain the odor. A few of the homes coming into the neighborhood were a little sketchy, but the owners don't have control over that.

Quiet Getaway
Can't say enough how much we enjoyed our stay at the "Shambala" Great location, quiet area next to the creek. Pet and Kid friendly. House was clean and well stocked with towels and linens. Quick 3 min drive to downtown Bryson City. My wife walked with our dog into town 15 mins bit no sidewalks. All in all a great place to stay !!

Peaceful and Well Stocked
We arrived on an unusually cold April night and the house was a bit hard to find in the dark. But we found it and figured out the space heaters so the house warmed up quickly. Comfy king size bed and very well stocked --- the owners have thought of everything one might need. The river is very nearby and the location is super peaceful but at the same time convenient both to charming downtown Bryson City and to the Cherokee Casino (2 minutes to downtown and only 15 minutes to the Casino). We had a relaxing stay and the pupper enjoyed sniffing around the neighborhood.
