We throughly enjoyed our stay at this cozy little cottage! The location is perfect, literally right up the hill from downtown Bryson. The front porch is a nice sitting place, for coffee or wine, that boasts beautiful views of the mountains. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to complete our stay! Will definitely be back to stay here again!

This is the sweetest little mountain cottage. Our hostess was great with communication. The cottage was super clean and felt cozy and inviting. It was decorated for Christmas and very well maintained. Can’t wait to book another stay at Bennett’s Cottage!
Sweetest front porch with great seating and beautiful views.

Great location! Nice little cottage stay.

Loved this little cabin! Christy, our host, was extremely communicative and available throughout our stay. Check in and check out process was very easy to follow. I stayed with my husband and labrador. Plenty of room for just the three of us with, a small yard space for the dog. The cabin was a really convenient to walk into Bryson City. We will be back to visit!

Cute and Cozy

Cute and comfortable cottage. However it is not a 2 bedroom and definitely not walking distance to the downtown area due to the steep road leading to its location, but otherwise it was a nice setting everything was great.

We loved the cottage. Cute open floor plan including bed, living room, kitchen area. Bathroom was a good size. It was very close to town which we loved because we always run late and needed to catch the train. Drive way was a little tricky, had to oull in the neighbors driveway to get a good angle ..sharp steep, bumpy incline that levels out. Thanks for the stay. Would stay again.

Overall I had a decent stay and this cottage was perfect for my couple of days in Bryson City. Only issues I had was I was only left with a single partial roll of toilet paper, there was hair in the shower, and the floors needed to be mopped. Other than that, no complaints. The host was accommodating and adjusted my original stay to add an extra night.

What a neat place. I traveled along for the first time to Bryson city and found this place to be absolutely perfect for what I need.**Car enthusiasts only: if you run a lowered front spoiler, you’re gonna find it hard to navigate in the driveway. It needs to be stock height or better.
