"Our room had a fire place. We did not use it but when we check in and entered our room it smelled like soot! We had to open windows and air it out for the first to days. I had a car freshener in my car that I bought into the room. I purchased a candle near by and turned it on in the room. Things were better by the third day. "

River's Edge on the Water in Bryson City
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (34)
"Very well stocked and the exterior and interior design was very pleasant. I liked the location on the river, close to Bryson City but felt private and remote. Important areas (bath, kitchen, sheets) were clean but as I often find most of the light fixtures and bulbs needed dusted as well as under the bed. Only stayed one night but will probably plan another longer stay in the future. "
