"We were fortunate to be upgraded to the deluxe "cabins" at the top of the property but were also very pleased with the rafting trip and staff at the center. The restaurant at the river was very good and a great convenience as we dined there all three nights of our stay. The prices there were very reasonable for dinner. The train trip offered at Bryson City was excellent and about a 20 minute drive to reach."

McKinley Edwards Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Excellent breakfast. Ample parking. Nice room. Will definitely return!"

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Bryson City

8/10 Good

"A good place to stay when in BC."

Relax Inn

8/10 Good

"The room was clean but definitely had a musty smell. Most probably stemming from the carpet. I’m very sensitive to carpets. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were a little too thick. My preference is more down pillows. Bathroom was functional but no space for toiletries."

Calhoun House Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"You will not find a better place to stay near Bryson city. This stay was an absolute joy. Ed & his wife have put so much love into this space and the experience they curate. Upon arriving we were greeted by Eva, the friendly neighbor cat who came and said hi to us on the back balcony. Followed by a very nice convo with Ed - when he explained to us the best things to see in Great Smoky National park. Having these recommendations saved us lots of time the next day. We only wish we had more time to stay and enjoy the treehouse. 10 stars! We walked to dinner downtown in Bryson city - Native brews. Great food. Extremely comfy beds! Well appointed kitchen! Just could not have been better! High quality interior decorating. You can tell have made it the way they would want it to be for themselves. Would love to come stay again!"
