About this property

Quaint, peaceful, & creekside! Alarka Peaceful Creek Cabin - Bryson City

Enjoy the cool creek side or cast a line for trout; sleep to the sounds of the rushing creek or a gentle rain from the metal roof. Our unique, rustic, and comfortable cabin is located outside of Bryson City - only a few miles from the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

The ten-window, secluded, enclosed back porch invites you to relax as you watch the variety of birds while listening to the rushing mountain stream just 30 yards away. Enjoy sitting on the deck down on the river or roasting marshmallows at the creek side fire pit. This quaint, two-to-five person cabin consists of an eat-in kitchen, one bathroom, one-bedroom with a queen-size bed, and a very large, vaulted ceiling, cozy living room with original wide-pine flooring and wormy chestnut walls, flat screen 50" TV, a gas-log fireplace and comfy furniture.

The TV includes Dish satellite, streaming capability (bring your login info) and wireless internet.

*Please note that this cabin is not wheelchair/handicap friendly, as shown in the photo gallery; there are steps at both exterior entrances and three steps indoors leading to the bathroom and bedroom area.

Smoky Mountains Getaway

We had a wonderful time staying here. Our kids loved playing around outside and we all loved sitting around in the sunroom with the windows open listening to the sound of the creek. We will definitely stay here again!

Cozy Stay

We stayed here for a weekend trip. It was very comfortable and easy to relax. The bed was comfortable and it was nice to be able to cook our meals instead of always going out. The outside was beautifully done and has a nice stream running through. Very happy with this property.

Very quaint, comfy, nice cabin. Very peaceful. Unfortunately, we had to cut our stay short 3 days due to Hurricane Helene! But the 3 days we were there were awesome! Will definitely keep this one in mind for our next trip to the area. Thank you.

Nice quiet getaway

My husband and I enjoyed a quiet long weekend in this simple cabin. Lovely creek right out back and even found a trailhead close by and hiked up to the falls. We didn’t want to do too much, just wanted a simple getaway and this place provided just that.

Peaceful creek side cabin

This was the perfect place for a couples getaway for the long holiday weekend. Well-stocked kitchen made breakfast easy each morning. The fireplace made the whole cabin nice and toasty; we used it to get the chill out of the air in the morning and at the end of the day of exploring Bryson City and other local points of interest. We would stay here again!

Peaceful and quiet sanctuary

I absolutely loved this little cabin, was the perfect size for me. The kitchen was well equipped with everything needed as far as utensils, plates, cups, etc and even many spices and oil for cooking. The bed was comfortable and the large walk in shower divine. The creek out back provided a lovely melody to sleep to since it was cool enough to have the windows open. Definitely want to come back and relax there again!

About the host

Hosted by Don and Rosemarie San Souci - CyberRentals Members since July 2004

Host profile image
After our first grandchild was born, Don and I purchased this sweet place so that we could have time with family. The cabin is approximately 100 years old and our son, who is a local building contractor, remodeled and made it in to this wonderful place. Our residence is in New Hampshire but we spend six winter months here at the cabin.

Why they chose this property

Couldn't resist the ever-flowing Alarka Creek which is just 30 yards from the cabin as well as the little creek that runs down the property in to the Creek. The property is private and picturesque.

What makes this property unique

Private and tranquil!
