About this property

Blue Mist Mountain Retreat

Blue Mist Mountain Retreat is located just off highway 19. There is no cabin more conveniently situated within just a few minutes driving distance to so many attractions, restaurants, and shopping. Located just 6 miles west of Harrah's Cherokee Casino and 6 miles east of downtown Bryson City, guests can enjoy visiting many attractions, shops, and restaurants in either Cherokee or Bryson City and be back relaxing in the hot tub, warming in front of the gas fireplace or sitting around the outdoor fire table in less than 10 minutes.
White water rafting at the Nantahala Outdoor Center is only 20 minutes away. The Oconaluftee entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park with all of its hiking trails, waterfalls, wildlife, historical buildings, and incomparable scenery is a mere 5 miles from the cabin. Guests can relax on the front porch and may even catch a glimpse of elk grazing below.

Wonderful cabin in a great location

We really enjoyed our stay here. Everything was clean and well appointed. The kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and cookware. Very short drive to Bryson City, Cherokee, and Great Smoky Mountains national park. The outdoor gas fire table shown in the listings is no longer present. The hot tub was clean and worked well.

Pet friendly

My husband and I stayed with our two yorkies. We loved that there was a small fenced in area for them. Cabin was great. Only thing I can say bad, is there was no mountain view.

We had a wonderful time at the Blue Ridge Mountain Resort. Especially our 6 month old Papillion. Her 1st vacation and she wore herself out. Cabin was tastefully decorated and we took plenty of pictures as I was really impressed with the pictures. Cons: Tv never worked, shower no hot water and dripped constantly.

The cabin interior was nice and everything in good shape. We didn't need the AC as it was cool. Plenty of hot water and nice towels but the shower has 2 heads (one a hand spray) but they come on at the same time. At first the pressure is minimal but if you pull the handle harder than you think you should it works. The exterior needs a little TLC. Pet friendly nice with the small fenced area and the front porch gate. The handrail on the frontIs a bit too low which makes that first step down a little treacherous. Dishwasher needs a deep clean as it smells when you open it. Coffee maker very nice and easy to use. Bed was very comfortable and sheets were very clean. Jacuzzi tub was on all weekend and since we didn't plan to use it we would have liked to turn it off to enjoy the quiet. There are no instructions in the book on how to do that. Sliding door screen needs to be replaced. VRBO did not add in the pet fee and if I hadn't read a reminder in the cabin about calling the office to check they would have charged me 250 for an unauthorized pet. My VRBO booking was for 2 adults plus pet. The gravel driveway is steep and you might have trouble if you only have a front wheel drive vehicle. We finally ended up backing up the hill to park at the top. It's located close to a Whittier grocery store and a short drive to either Bryson City or Cherokee. Gas logs inside are nice.

Hi, thank you for this feedback. I was able to talk to you on the phone and refund the pet fee since we posted conflicting amounts. We are looking into all the issues that you mentioned. Thank you.
