Creekfront Retreat • Hot Tub • Pool Table • Near Town/National Park • Rejuvenate
At Water’s Edge, life slows down in the best way. Nestled directly on Deep Creek, you ’ll wake up to the peaceful sound of water. Spend your days tubing, fishing, or exploring the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, then come home to a relaxing soak in the hot tub or a friendly game of pool. With plenty of space for families and friends, cozy gathering areas, and a location just minutes from downtown Bryson City, this cabin makes the perfect balance of mountain adventure and laid-back comfort.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE STAYING HERE At Water’s Edge, the mountain air is fresher, the stars shine brighter, and the sound of rushing water becomes the soundtrack to your stay. Wake up to coffee on the porch swing as the creek flows just steps away, spend the day tubing, fishing, or exploring the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and wind down with a soak in the hot tub or s’mores around the fire pit. Inside, there’s room for everyone to spread out and relax (people and furry friends alike), with cozy gathering spaces, a pool table, and Smart TVs for family movie nights. Just minutes from downtown Bryson City, you’ll have restaurants, shops, and breweries at your fingertips—yet your private Deep Creek home still feels like its own secluded world. Families, couples, and friends return year after year to this special spot where adventure and relaxation meet.

This is a beautiful property containing all the amenities you need. The kitchen has everything just like you are home. Was happy to see, and use, a tea pot that whistles. Every small appliance was there and plenty of dishes, glasses, cups, pots, pans, bowls and utensils.The town is quaint but has all the essentials. Walmart is about a 20-25 minute drive but we found the grocery store Igles was very nice. There are spices and some dry goods available at the house so check the cupboard before you make your grocery run. We replenished/left items for future residents as was done for us. The back porch is the best thing, the sound from the consistently running creek is very soothing and rejuvenating…and absolutely breathtaking.The bathrooms contained plenty of towels and there was shampoo/conditioner/shower soap dispensers affixed. We brought our own items but that was a pleasant surprise, especially after I used all my travel size shower gel. Lol The beds were surprisingly comfortable with really good mattresses. My party included Boomers whose bodies need to rest comfortably and all of us (5) had the best rest while there. There were adequate blankets and an extra pillow for each bedroom. We found everyone we encountered in Bryson City was the most courteous, friendly people. We met no strangers.The owners were attentive and easy to reach/quick to respond through Vrbo. I highly recommend this home for a private getaway. You will not be disappointed.

Water's Edge was just as described. It was clean, so organized, comfy and had everything we needed to accommodate our family. The beds and pillows were great, the kitchen well stocked, and you couldn't ask for a better location so close to town and The Polar Express. There was easy access to the property and parking right out front. Our host, Sue, was great about responding and a pleasure to work with. She even had a Christmas tree up next to the fireplace to add to experience. There are several other properties close by and what looks like a camp site across the creek that was empty. It was quiet and we had a great view of the creek and stars.

We stayed here for a long weekend getaway. We were so impressed with the organization and how well the house was stocked. We didn’t have to run out to the grocery store 100 times for all the little things. There was enough things to do for everyone - from the 2 year old to the 70 year old. This is a great place to stay in Bryson City!

Edge of Great Smokies
Initial plans for party of six reduced to four. First, the house is at the base of the GSMNP and the Deep Creek Trail which was fantastic. Great layout, highly functional and spacious. Well designed kitchen, very well stocked. Pool table excellent use of space and thoroughly enjoyed. The back covered porch overlooking Deep Creek was comfortable and very relaxing. Likewise for the fire pit. Although adjacent houses, the positioning of the house limits exposure and affords a private retreat. The hosts were fantastic and near-immediate in response. We opted for the firewood bundle which was perfect for 3 nights of fires.
