Smoky Mountain Depot ~ Great Secluded Cabin in a Gated Community

This is a great secluded cabin in a gated community. The peacefulness of this mountain will bring serenity to even the busiest of those among us.

Stop in, enjoy a cup of Joe on the spacious porch in the morning and the coziness of a warm fire at night.

Our cabin is located within 25 minutes from the Nantahala Outdoor Center, the Appalachian Trail, Tsali Recreation Area and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. We are also located less than 30 miles from Hwy 129, The Tail of the Dragon, motorcycle run.

Check out Bryson City's Numerous attractions:
Whitewater kayaking and rafting. World class mountain biking, Fly Fishing, The Appalachian Trail, Great Smoky Mountain Railway.
Truly, there is something for everyone!

The Cabin includes a master bedroom with king size bed downstairs, and a loft with 2 queen size beds. All the comforts of home and then some. There is a completely remodeled kitchen with all Stainless appliances, gas stove, dishwasher, and even a heated tiled floor to keep those barefoot toes warm in the morning. It is all topped off with Oronoko Granite from Brazil.

Newly updated bathroom with new washer and dryer, all tile with heated floors and 2 person MTI Jacuzzi!

In the living area you will enjoy the beauty and warmth of a wood burning stove, large screen TV, DVD player and 100s of movies to choose from. Brazilian Teak graces the floors for a beautiful warm feeling. Sit and Enjoy the "G" Scale train as it runs around the cabin and even through the walls.

A note about pricing: VRBO keeps saying I should raise my rates, especially during peak seasons, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, e.t.c.
It has always irritated me that hotels e.t.c. do that. So if I want to enjoy my family during the holidays, I have to pay a premium???

I'm sorry, I think that's just wrong, so why would I do that to my guest? Prices are the same EVERY DAY of the year. If you want a holiday, summer dates, e.t.c. just book early before someone else does, and enjoy your family at the regular prices.

Beautiful home! Furnished with all the necessities and clean! Just make sure you bring the food and snacks you want with you, don’t go to the house first and then think you’ll go to the store. It’s a long drive up to the house so be prepared but it is worth it!

The home was very clean and well stocked. The shower was great and the beds comfortable. Gorgeous views and very isolated. We have little ones that couldn’t play too much outside because it was quite the drop in the front yard, but our older kids liked to explore. They especially loved the train that runs around the top of the rooms, they were amazed! Very neat feature for any train lover! Be prepared, the drive up is mostly single lane roads when you get off the hwy, it is paved though. We were a little uncomfortable with the drive, but the owner clearly gives directions prior to arriving.

The host was great at communication all throughout the stay! The cabin was very private and secluded, the perfect spot for a weekend getaway from the responsibilities of a hectic life allowing time to unwind. We had a few friendly deer visit the front yard near the porch. The train theme was evident and the real train around the ceiling was a perfect addition. A true gem hidden high in the mountains!

The view from this cabin is spectacular. Unfortunately, there was no outside hot tub, but there is a huge jetted bathtub inside the cabin that was nice. As Mark suggested in his instructions, it is essential to back into the steep driveway. The train was a unique touch and the wood burning fireplace was cozy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Smoky Mountain Depot. Our host, Mark, was friendly and quick to respond to our questions. The cabin was spotless and well-appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable, relaxing stay. The view is amazing, and the surroundings are utterly quiet. We spent almost an entire day on the porch just listening to the birds sing and watching the sun and mist rise and set over the mountains. The drive from the main road to and from the cabin was a bit daunting for us "flatlanders", but our efforts were well-rewarded with excellent accommodations in a peaceful and secluded setting.

The Smokey Mountain Depot delivered seclusion with a breath taking view! The highlight of our stay was filled with sitting on the porch taking in the beauty of the Smoky Mountains. The accommodations were very comfortable and the attention to detail was definitely noticeable. Our visit to the Smoky Mountains was memorable with our stay at the Depot being among the top of our favorites on our trip.
