Perfect place to stay in Bryson!!
This home is WONDERFUL. Plenty of space, phenomenal outdoor areas, super convenient (yet still out of the way) location, and a top-notch, exceptionally responsive host. We are already eager to find time to return to Bryson City and stay at this house again. Thank you to Steph for answering all of my questions and providing such a fantastic home-away-from-home for our family's stay.

Absolutely wonderful place! You can’t go wrong renting Stacked Stone Retreat. Plenty of space to spread out. Every bedroom has its own bathroom and there’s another half bath on the main level. This was the most well stocked place I’ve ever rented. Kitchen has everything you could want and more. The landscaping and outdoor spaces are immaculate too. We enjoyed hanging out on the deck and watching the train go by. Only a 6 minute drive to downtown Bryson City. 20 minutes from Cherokee. Matt and Steph (owners) are very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions or needs we had. We can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful, Roomy Cabin
We rented this cabin because we came to Bryson City to ride the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad (GSMR). The depot was only five minutes away. This 4-BR cabin is very large and extremely nice. It has a large kitchen, roomy bedrooms and a porch that wraps all the way around the house. The gas fireplace is BEAUTIFUL! We liked it so much we are looking for a reason to go back and stay again. We really enjoyed the GSMR, too. If we ever go back, we will certainly try to rent this cabin again.

Beautiful home in beautiful Bryson NC
We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home. It was spotless and well stocked with everything needed to enjoy your time there. You can relax and do nothing or be busy doing a different activity everyday. The location is great, a bit secluded but close to most things you’ll want to do. We all had a great time and hope to enjoy another week there in the future.

The host was incredibly responsive to all of my questions. So much to do in Bryson City AND we saw the train pass EVERY DAY from the deck of the house!

Overall a good stay
The house was very nice, however there were a few disappointments. The upstairs bedroom stated on the listing that there is a queen bed, but it was a full size with a severe sag in the middle of the mattress which was uncomfortable. The driveway was hard to enter and exit with my Corvette due to the sharp angle from the road in front, and scraped the new front spoiler I just installed which will require repair of the finish. Also, the WIFI was bad and took forever to download anything. There is no TV available unless you have a Netflix or Amazon Video account, so we couldn't watch any TV, and only one TV in the whole house which was downstairs. Kitchen was great and main king bedrooms were nice. Spent time on the deck, nice view. The couches and chairs could definitely use replacement as most were pretty broke down.

Wonderful Weekend Home Base
We traveled to share the same Santa’s Land with our grandkids that their moms enjoyed 25 years earlier. This house was a great home base for our long weekend trip. The grands loved the toy options and the adults loved the house layout and well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed making wonderful memories while at the house, s’mores at the fire pit, walking/sitting several areas provided outdoors, and definitely waving to the passengers coming by on the steam engine train ride that we saw loading up earlier that morning while we visited Bryson City for a delicious breakfast at Everett Street Diner.
