Awesome Cabin in the Mountains

The cabin was amazing! Loved the location where we felt like we were totally in the mountains, but could also get to town in a few minutes. Being able to sit out on the porch and listen to the wildlife, enjoy the hot tub, the fire pit, and the game room made for an amazing vacation. We also enjoyed the town of Bryson City and a few of the neighboring towns for some good craft beer. Definitely would recommend and stay again!

Cozy Cabin in the Woods

We had a wonderful long weekend with close proximity to Bryson City - great views, but at the same time secluded, with all the amenities you could ask for - hot tub, fire pit, cozy interior decor, and plenty of space in the living room to spread out. Slept great in the master bedroom king size bed.

The perfect mountain cabin

The Knotty Knoll cabin is a beautiful mountain retreat.We were fortunate to have the opportunity to stay in such a great place with a beautiful view of the Smoky Mountains. Everything was perfect from the long private driveway to the rocking chairs on the porch to sit and relax from a great days hike. So close to all the activities

Fantastic Cabin!

We wanted mountain views and a feeling of being remote, but with a minivan and a 7 month old we also wanted ease of access and close to town. This cabin is the perfect combination of both! Super clean, cozy, and amazing views. All with only 5 mins to downtown, grocery store, anything you need. The hot tub was such a nice perk every evening. And the owners were so quick to respond to any question we had. Loved every bit of our getaway!
