Hosts were welcoming, very kind, and responded quickly. The apartment was spacious and we had everything we needed. Everything was very clean. The kitchen was decently stocked, beds were comfy (so comfy I want to buy the sane mattress lol) and even had toys for our little one to play with. The yard is not fully fenced which was not a problem for us but may be for others. Downtown Bryson was not even a 2 min drive making everything very convenient to get to. Such a cute town. We would definitely stay again!

Awesome Place to Stay

We were looking to book something in Bryson City, for just a couple of days, with less than one day's notice. The Hermanson's were prompt in their response and were great communicators. The space was clean and had everything anyone could need, plus more. It was really like staying with family.

Met up in the middle with my daughter and SIL. The house space was comfortable with everything we needed, and some we didn't know we needed. We took advantage of firepit, games, sauna; we hiked, ate, drank. It was Great!

I stayed here for a night with my cat while moving long distance. The space was beautifully decorated, clean and nestled away in a nice, quiet and seemingly safe location.

My stay

The place was nice but upon leaving i was accused of taking a hair dryer that i did not take
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 23 September 2024
As you are well aware it was 2 bathrobes that went missing, not a hair dryer, and they are expensive to replace. You did leave us the two coat hangers. Here is what we wrote at the time: "Hi - we are trying to find 2 of the bathrobes. We are double checking but wondering if maybe they got packed :)". No response. We followed up several more times with a request for reimbursement to replace the missing items, but these messages were also ignored. While we understand that mistakes happen, we kindly ask guests to verify their belongings before departing.

About the host

Hosted by Sean Hermanson

Host profile image
We love being on the quiet side of the Smokies! This is all about connecting with nature, whether it is hiking, kayaking, mountain biking, fly fishing, or even riding the Polar Express, to name a few. Enjoy the end of the day sitting in your own private patio area with a gorgeous view of the mountains! We are happy to give recommendations if you reach out to us (we hiked Alum Cave recently and it was awesome!).

Why they chose this property

We love the seclusion yet being so close to the town center. The property is visited by many kinds of birds, sometimes deer, even the odd turtle. Guests are welcome to check out the goldfish pond in the front yard.

What makes this property unique

We are in a suburban neighborhood, 3 mins to the downtown, but secluded--almost feels like being in the woods. Best of both worlds.
