Pet Policy

We must know in advance if you are bringing a pet. This cabin is pet friendly with a $100 non-refundable fee for up to 2 pets. Dogs only! We allow more than two pets only on a case-by-case basis. By bringing a pet, you agree to the terms of our complete Pet Agreement, which provides very specific rules for pets including: no pets on furniture (including beds and sofas), unattended pets in the cabin must be crated, and many other strict requirements. If we find evidence of pets on furniture, you will be charged $100. If we find evidence of pets damaging the property, including using the bathroom in unit, you will be charged $200. The Pet Agreement also provides that pets brought without advance notice will be charged $250 plus the normal pet fee. Pets brought to cabins that do NOT allow pets can result in immediate eviction with forfeiture of remaining paid stay.

Important Notice: Road Conditions in the Smoky Mountains
Please be aware that road conditions in the Smoky Mountains can be unpredictable and may change rapidly due to weather. Our cabin’s roads & driveways are either pavement or gravel or both. Depending on the season, you may experience road conditions such as heavy rain washouts, snow, sleet, roads covered in leaves, etc. We highly recommend using a 4WD vehicle to ensure safe travel to your cabin, especially during winter months or inclement weather. We also strongly recommend traveling in a vehicle with higher ground clearance to navigate the terrain more easily. Low clearance vehicles will not be able to access certain cabin roads including The Watershed Resort.

Please Note:

NO REFUNDS will be issued if you are unable to reach your cabin due to road conditions.
We advise checking weather and road conditions prior to your trip to ensure a safe and pleasant journey.
Your safety is our priority. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Water Conservation Policy

To ensure the sustainability of our beautiful mountain environment, we kindly ask all guests to use water mindfully during their stay. Please limit shower times, turn off the tap while brushing your teeth, and report any leaks immediately. We also encourage the reuse of towels and linens to reduce water consumption. These small actions help preserve our natural resources and keep the mountains pristine for future visitors.

Run the washer sparingly.
Only run the dishwasher when it's full.
DO NOT wash your car.
Thank you for understanding, and we look forward to your visit!

Attention: Active Wildlife in the Area

Our area of WNC is currently experiencing increased wildlife activity, particularly from bears. While it’s a privilege to share our environment with these magnificent creatures, it’s essential that we all take precautions to ensure our safety and theirs.

Please follow these guidelines:

Secure all food and garbage: Bears are attracted to strong smells. Do not leave food in your car and reattach bungee cords to trash can lids every time.
Be aware of your surroundings: Stay alert, especially during dawn and dusk when wildlife is most active.
Avoid close encounters: If you see a bear or other wildlife, maintain a safe distance and do not approach.
Travel in groups: When possible, hike or explore with others, and make noise to alert animals of your presence. Keep dogs leashed at all times.
Your cooperation is crucial in maintaining a safe and harmonious environment for everyone. Thank you for your attention and care.

Morning view over Lake Fontana

We have stayed at this cabin multiple times with the family and love the ease of getting to the cabin and the views. We are starting to notice the cabin is getting worn out with the living room furniture needing replacement (torn or broken). All the pots were completely unusable, but we were thankful that after a quick email to the office, they replaced the pots with entire new set which was fantastic especially since we were going to be doing a lot of cooking. The gas fireplace kept going out but GSCR was quick to send someone out to resolve it. We always appreciate the customer service. We love everything about the area and will be back!

Beautiful View!

This property was the exact “Mountain View” I was looking for. There was plenty of space inside the cabin for our big family. Everything we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms to get started. Waking up to the beautiful view this cabin has was the best. We ventured in to Bryson City and had so much fun!

Lake Fontana

We all had a great time and saw some amazing views. We thought we would be able to see the Fall leaves. I think we missed them by a week or two. Maybe next year we will be able to see them.

We had some problems

Had problem with 1st floor bedrooms ceiling fan and light remote. Only 1 remote and could not get both rooms to operate separately. When 1 was on the other would go off. Jamie fixed kitchen under counter and stove lights that were not working. Dining table bench and chairs were uncomfortable and very heavy. Back parking area flood never worked. Either light needs to be replaced or sensor is bad.

Perfect birthday weekend

This place was amazing! The view and the layout were fabulous and the snow made it so much better. Little scary going up the mountain and down the drive but a 4 wheel drive was good to have.

Beautiful Location

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. The view from the balcony was awe inspiring!! We came up to Bryson City to ride the Great Smokey Mountain Railroad for the Uncorked event. Everything was prefect. The cabin is outside of the town of Bryson City, easy enough to find... the drive is steep, so make sure your car can handle it! Worth everything to stay here, we will definitely be back. Spacious, has smoker and grill, and the outside fire place set a romantic vibe.
