Great base camp for Smoky Mountain Adventures

Location:
Enjoy your Smoky Mountain Vacation hidden away in the lush Nantahala Forest, surrounded by nature but only minutes from all the outdoor activities that the Nantahala has to offer- You and your group will be only moments away from the Nantahala Riding Stable, and just a few short minutes to all the White Water Rafting and Zip Lining companies located in the Gorge. If Hiking is your thing, you'll be super close to a Trail Head for the infamous Appalachian Trail, and only fifteen minutes from the Tsali Recreation Area. An easy twenty minute drive will bring you to either Deep Creek or the Road to Nowhere in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Bryson City and all of it's shopping and dining options, as well as the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad are an easy 15 minutes away off of Hwy 74, and fifteen minutes beyond that will bring you to all the cultural activities of Cherokee, as well as Harrah's Casino.

Access Road:
Cars and Most All Vehicles- Paved and hard packed gravel sections on a well maintained mountain road, Switchbacks and moderate to steep incline sections possible, no washed out section. The roads to this cabin are not considered 'Motorcycle Friendly'.

Exterior:
When you arrive to Adventure Awaits, you'll find the perfect log cabin tucked back in a Smoky Mountain Forests. There's parking for two vehicles by the road, and a stepped path will lead you down to a welcoming shaded front porch with available rocking chairs. In the front yard is a small fire pit for enjoying cool mountain evenings and making s'mores. The back deck, where a Weber charcoal grill, outdoor dining set and hot tub invite you to relax your evenings away after taking advantage of the many activities that await you in the Great Smoky Mountains!

Entry Level:
Once you enter the front door, you'll be welcomed by a rustic great room that is tastefully decorated, featuring a large stone work gas log fireplace. Plush and comfortable seating is available for you and your guests, while a galley style kitchen with attached laundry is off to the side. Leading off the great room is a king size master bedroom featuring an en suite bath with a shower/tub combo, and two queen bedrooms that share a bath featuring a separate shower and tub. Comfy quilts and plush pillows will invite you and your guests to sleep in as long as you like, but a well equipped kitchen and dining table for six will be sure to call you to breakfast lunch and dinner!

Polar Express weekend
This cabin was perfect for our family to come to Bryson City and enjoy the Polar Express. The cabin met all of our expectations and needs. It was well stocked, clean, and the kids loved the hot tub! The description was spot on! We will definitely book here again.

Our new spot
Our family has been coming to Bryson City for many years. Between the NOC and Cardinal Coffee - I couldn’t have found a better spot. The cabin is perfectly sized for 6 adults. And the little extras for your fur friends were very thoughtful- a clean blanket, extra bowls, little mats. The front porch and rocking chairs made morning coffee very peaceful.

We had a good time. We asked to extend another day and they did not charge it. I'm very grateful. Just an observation, they need to provided enough batdom paper. and there was no soap on the bathroom. But we enjoyed it a lot. I recommend it 100 %

Perfect cabin - completely secluded
Absolutely loved the cabin. It is very secluded. We stayed mid November, no leaves on the trees, and could barely make out the roof line of the nearest cabin. Probably at least a football field or more away. Gas fireplace gave us some trouble so that was a little disappointing, but not enough to lose a five star rating. We notified property management and they were very friendly and responsive. We will definitely stay here again.

Great Cabin
Beautiful Cabin, very clean and cozy. The only issue we had was with the keypad lock. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn't. A light near the sign at the end of the gravel driveway would be a bonus because it was very hard to see at night and especially in the rain. But I would 100% recommend this cabin!

Location to attractions was good, parking 2 vehicles was a challenge. TV was not to our liking, couldn't get it to work most of the time we tried and there was no closet in master bedroom. Otherwise, it was cozy and had everything we needed for our stay.

It was everything and more! My husband and I put our phones on airplane mode and just enjoyed the four nights in five days with each other in our children. It was close to part of the Appalachian Trail which we totally loved and enjoyed hiking with our dog and our children. We went gem mining and our kids found some awesome gems and of course we visited the national Park. The only complaint I have is that my dog was acting goofy the first couple days and we couldn’t figure out why but then my husband found a no bark thing and it was turned on so I don’t know if it was like making a noise that was bothering my dog but my dog doesn’t bark to begin with so we shut it off and he loved it after that.
