Erikas Dream - Handcrafted Log Cabin near River

Secluded, but within minutes of shops, galleries and restaurants. Drive into our mountain cove and up the hill to the welcoming front porch of Erika's Dream, a great getaway - for the weekend, a long vacation or even a honeymoon.

The great room features a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with comfortable leather furnishings for TV watching or quiet conversations by the fire. Everything is provided in the well-equipped kitchen and the generous sized dining table seats six people with ease. Breakfast is also wonderful out on the patio, or you can prepare steaks on the charcoal grill. The swing and rockers on the front porch are just perfect for a lazy afternoon or that morning cup of coffee.
Both bedrooms have queen-sized beds with cozy comforters and soft linens. Open the windows and let the cool mountain breezes lull you to sleep. (We do have AC, too.)
At the end of the day, take a soothing soak in your private hot tub in the woods. Then relax by the outdoor fireplace, listen to the quiet and take in the wonder of the night sky. Your stay in our our romantic smoky mountain cabins will give you memories to last a lifetime.

We request that the guest who books the reservation be respectfully 18 or older. Pets are allowed though we do ask guests pay pet rent of $80 for their first dog, with an additional $40 for each additional dog, to help cover the additional time it takes our staff to prepare the property for our next guests, please bring a crate if you intend to leave the dog at the property unattended and we reserve the right to decline puppies, large breeds over a certain weight, etc.

Could Be Better
We wanted to like this place but a few things bothered us. We agree with other reviewers. The road to the property was very steep, narrow, a mix of gravel , paved roads but with potholes. We were so glad we brought our SUV. The property photos need updating to reflect worn leather furnishings and the missing fire pit. The kitchen was way below basics. The host was quickly responsive to emails before our arrival. We arrived 15-minutes early. A woman dropped off some clean mats and suggested we give the property high ratings. After our visit, we felt it didn’t warrant it.

Adorable log cabin
The log cabin was cozy and fun to get away from the hustle and bustle of every day living. The cabin is equipped with everything you need. Outdoor space was very relaxing, even in the rain. Nice large covered porch.

Private Smokies Getaway
Erika’s Dream was a great destination. Great private hot tub down a few steps from the cabin. Well appointed cabin as advertised. Clean and cozy. Great fireplace. I spent one whole day on the porch swing, just chilling. Close to great hikes and Bryson City. Bring your fly fishing rod for close by river. Quick communication with owner. The entry road is steep and narrow, part gravel, part paved. Bring your own firewood from the IGA, sensibly priced. Great farmers market nearby ( Darnell’s).
