About this property

Good life cabin 2 · Bryson City cabin with hot tub and fire pit

A private road leads to a two bedroom, cozy log cabin near Bryson City, NC. Hot tub and fire pit outside for enjoying the evening. Gas Weber grill for making dinner. Rocking chairs on the front porch to breath in fresh mountain air while under cover. WiFi speeds around 40mbps. Enjoy complimentary firewood, just be sure to bring your own tinder to get it going.

Guests have access to a private fire pit and private hot tub. We keep a stock of seasoned firewood for your enjoyment. Outdoor gas grill is available for use. Washer and Dryer in the unit.

The road to the cabin is paved all the way with the exception of a few potholes. I have driven my lowered Corvette there. In the winter months 4 wheel drive is recommended as the hills are steep.

We are available to address guests concerns through email and text. We have easy check in/out which does not require waiting on anyone.

We enjoy interacting with our guests. We want to provide a great value more than anything. We work with some great Bryson City locals to ensure the cabin is clean. By renting this cabin you are helping the local community that is such a hidden gem.

It is standard for beds to be made for Guests arrival (except pull out couches not fully made) as part of the linen and cleaning service. The unit is provided with a starter set of toilet paper & paper towels. Managers do not guarantee that these extra items will always be available and guests may need to replenish their own paper goods, toiletries, & dish detergent, etc.

CONDITION OF PROPERTY: Managers have, to the best of their ability, given an accurate description of the property and it’s condition. Guest understands that it is considered as reserved "sight unseen". Our cleaning staff will have cleaned it before your occupancy. All electrical, plumbing and appliances should be in working order. The failures of operation of certain extra amenities, such as TVs, cable, or the Internet and WiFi service are not a basis for any refund. Manager will make every effort to have these items repaired but does not guarantee that they will be repaired during Guests occupancy. When you arrive, if you find that the house has not been cleaned to normal standards please notify the Manager immediately. We will do our best to have tradesmen attend to any issues. The Guest agrees to hold the Manager harmless from any liability for the condition of the house. Due to the nature of cabin properties, the stairs, decks and concrete are not always stable. Use at your own risk.

CLEANING & REPAIRS: All units have cleaning included in the total rent. Please note that cleaning does not include dishes & cooking utensils. If additional cleaning is required after you leave, it will be charged to your credit card. Guest agrees to keep the house, furniture and furnishings in good order. Removing, adding or changing furniture without Manager’s written approval shall be deemed a material breach of this Rental Agreement, and is strictly prohibited. Guests are responsible for the cost of replacement of any damage to furniture or premises and replacement of missing items. Under no circumstances can any furnishing or linen be taken outside of the cabin.

ENTRY OF PREMISES: With Guest’s permission, which is hereby given, Manager or Manager’s representative may enter the premises during reasonable daylight hours without securing prior permission from Guest, but shall give Guest notice of such entry immediately prior if possible and immediately thereafter. For inventory and maintenance purposes a property management employee of the Manager may need to enter the premises. The same permission procedure applies as above. In any emergency, Manager or Manager’s servicing agents may enter the premises at any time without permission of Guest for the purposes of making repairs to alleviate such emergency.

ASSUMPTION OF RISK: No lifeguard may be on duty. Accordingly, persons using the pool or hot tub do so at their own risk and the Manager assumes no responsibility for accident or injury. No one should swim alone. Renters will hold the Managers harmless from any and all bodily injury and/or property damage incurred on the property arising out of Renters' negligent acts or omissions.

CHILD PROOFING: Guest understands that no special efforts have been made to “childproof” this house, and accept the risk or harm to any children we allow on the property. These risks are not limited to, but include access to the deck, hot tub, fire pit, adjacent street, and cleaning supplies in the house.

FURNITURE: All furniture must be returned to its original location on Guest's departure or an additional charge will be made. MISSING ITEMS - Renters will be charged for any missing items reasonably attributable to Renters and not returned after notification. The cleaning service performs an inventory/survey of the property after Guests depart and notifies the Manager of any missing items. Manager will notify guests in the event that items were inadvertently taken, and provide guests the opportunity to return the missing items.

USE OF SECURITY CAMERAS - Renters understand and accept that the property is protected with outside security cameras. These cameras are used to protect the property from potential break-ins and theft. There are NO cameras inside the house.

Prom parties, fraternity or sorority parties and graduation parties are not allowed at any time. Adults cannot rent property on behalf of underage guests, no exception.

NON-SMOKING - This is a NON SMOKING vacation rental. This INCLUDES THE BALCONY. Evidence of smoking, such as the smell of cigarette or cigar smoke inside the unit by the cleaning crew is sufficient basis to charge the renter for smoke cleanup and removal from carpeting, AC ducts & filters and furniture. This type of clean up is expensive and Renter is Liable for the deep cleaning Costs incurred. NO EXCEPTIONS

$75 NON REFUNDABLE PET FEE. If you bring a pet(s), you must pay the non refundable pet fee. If you are found to have a pet and have not paid the fee this rental agreement will be forfeited, terminated and deposits will be retained and a deep cleaning fee will apply.

If Guests are not present when cleaning crews arrive and have left their possessions in the house, cleaning crews will collect their possessions and remove them from the premises in order to prepare the unit for incoming guests and Guest will be charged $150 for this service. PLEASE checkout promptly, the cleaning crews have a very short time window to prepare the unit for new guests.

CHECK-OUT PROCEDURES - Renters are responsible for collecting their belongings and taking trash to the large trash cans on the side of the cabin upon check-out. Please ensure that the door is locked when you leave.

HOLDING OVER: Because of the nature of Manager's business (short term recreational rentals) Guest understands, and is hereby put on notice that any unauthorized "holding over" of the property past the stated rental period could severely jeopardize Managers business and cause loss of rental income from other previously booked guests, temporary and/or permanent loss of business, goodwill and reputation and, among other things, could force Manager to breach an agreement with similar short term summer and winter recreational Guest(s) who may have reservations during Guest's unauthorized "holding over" period. In the event, Manager may be legally liable in damages to said other guests. Guests should be aware that unauthorized "holding over" has been construed as a factor in establishing "malicious continuing occupation" of rental property, which may entitle Manager to treble damages in any unlawful detained action. Guest also recognizes the unauthorized "holding over" could be grounds in court as a cause of action for intentionally interfering with Manager’s prospective business advantage. In addition, we will charge $100.00 an hour past 10:30 a.m. on the day of check out.

RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES: It is specifically agreed and understood that the relationship between the parties herein shall be deemed to be of proprietor and lodger or Guest as opposed to a relationship of landlord/tenant. Guest specifically waives and make inapplicable to this lodging the provisions of North Carolina landlord/tenant Law

Great
Our stay was great. We brought our dog and he had a great time! The cabin was clean, offered a fire pit with wood already gathered and split (which was very nice) also offered a grill and hot tub. The grill was great because first night we had no power due to a storm. Wish there was some candles on hand just for the in case you need it moments. Neighbors are far enough away that you have privacy. Very nice place to stay. Will be looking to book again.

Beautiful place cute cabin
The cabin was really cute loved the hot tub, and fire pit with well stocked wood, kitchen had all the basic things to cook with. Very sweet to have stuff for smores on table. The downside it is a 2 bedroom but the walls in both bedrooms don't go to the ceiling so there is no privacy you can hear absolutely everything and see all the lights from every room.

Amazing weekend!
My husband and I booked this cabin for a long birthday weekend getaway. The cabin was very private as stated in description. It was perfect distance from everywhere we wanted to visit. Definitely see another trip to this cabin in our future.

Very clean
There were no working lighters and the fire pit had been doused, so lighting a fire was difficult. But aside from that everything was good. The host was very quick to respond. There is another cabin next door but it is down the hill, so it’s mostly private if you care about that.

Quiet and relaxing
This cabin was a few miles from any highway and traffic, was a beautiful drive up a steep (paved) hill, and gave my fiancé and I just the right amount of relaxation we were looking for. There are two cabins on the property, each with private hot tubs and fire pits, and plenty of dry firewood to use if you want to sit back and enjoy the s’mores provided by the host. Enough cookware/dishes/cutlery to make meals if you stay in, Ingles grocery store was about 15-20 minutes back to town. We had one question and the host was very quick to respond with an answer. If you’re looking for a simple and quiet getaway on a budget, look no further.
