Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Bryson City

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb with our family of 10, ranging from a baby to grandparents. The house was meticulously maintained and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing trip. The layout was perfect, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out while still having great common areas for gathering. Every room was beautifully designed, so no one felt like they got the “lesser” room. The views were absolutely incredible, and we loved the added amenities—board games, foosball, a jacuzzi, and a grill. The host was fantastic—super responsive, helpful with local recommendations, and proactive in keeping us informed about a nearby fire. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this home for any group looking for a relaxing and well-equipped retreat!

We visited Phillip’s lake house for a long weekend to celebrate our daughter’s upcoming 17th birthday, along with a few of her friends and our family. Within 20 minutes of being there, our daughter asked us if we could rent again this summer! The house is beautifully appointed (the girls loved the leopard stair runners!), and the home was absolutely pristine. The owners have left no stone unturned when it comes to detail, instruction and comfort, and there was plenty to entertain our crew inside and out! The surroundings are somewhat ethereal, not to mention peaceful, even with 6 teen girls, a ten year old boy, and our pup! We all loved that he got to join us, and being the water dog he is, he was in heaven! Our favorites were exploring the lake in the canoe and other water toys, so generously provided, and star gazing on the dock! We can’t wait to visit again! This home may have become our new Highlands tradition!

Close to town. Very comfortable. Very quiet. Most definitely will be rebooking

Great location great host very clean love the view and felt like home would highly recommended anyone looking to stay in this lovely home Will be booking again in the near future

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL stay! I booked this sweet little cabin for my mom & sister during their visit from Florida to meet their grandson/nephew! It was perfect for our family gathering. Peaceful, serene, had all the amenities needed to cook in the kitchen, towels were available, TV & fireplace work great. Zachary was available by messenger for any questions! The only semi-cons is that the driveway is VERY steep. I’m a local, so this kind of driveway was no big deal for me, but for someone from Florida it may be scary to drive up. The hot tub was not clean/didn’t appear to be clean so we never used it. Bummer. Ultimately, i think the pros outweigh the cons of this place. It’s a beautiful place for family to gather!

It was one of the best vacations I've ever had, a beautiful and complete house, a wonderful and peaceful place, lush landscapes, beautiful waterfalls, I want to go back to the same place in the summer to be able to enjoy the lakes better. I recommend it to everyone.

The Honey House is a beautiful home in a great location. It was perfect for a girls weekend away. The hot tub made the stay even more relaxing. Everything we needed was about 10 minutes in any direction. David was a great host communicating with him as quick and easy.

The cabin was clean and comfortable. The host stocked coffee and a thoughtful basket of “ in case you forgot” items such a new toothbrushes. There were lots of games and books for children, as well as a great setup for pets. Highly recommend this cabin and host. Thanks for a great weekend! We will stay again in the future if possible!

would stay here again ! lovely location and nice place inside and out

Lesley's place was clean and comfortable. Lesley is a good communicator and our needs were met with clear instructions. Beautiful area!

What a lovely stay! We really enjoyed making a fire and cooking by the river. Such an awesome location and only a mile from the Nantahala Outdoor Center. I’d highly recommend Donnie’s stay to anyone looking for a private get away in the mountains. We will definitely stay again.

We absolutely loved our stay this past weekend for our anniversary getaway. The Lodge is very comfortable, rooms are spotless. Not too far from the city. Very private. Had everything we needed. This getaway was probably our favorite one so far. Loved everything about The Lodge. Brian and the other hosts went to great pains and did an excellent job in maintaining a safe, and family friendly atmosphere. Super friendly, easy to communicate with. We are looking forward to bringing our children on our next visit.

Have been vacationing in Western North Carolina for about 30 years. The Sunset Cottage is one of the most enjoyable places that I have been to. It’s in a beautiful setting, off the beaten path, and you can get to everything conveniently from there. I would like to stay there again!

Beautiful downstairs apartment with private entrance. Felt very private from the main house. Beautifully decorated and comfortable. Large space and spotlessly clean! Lots of thought went into everything you might need. Snacks and drinks in kitchen and bath amenities. Bed was comfortable and linens and pillows top notch. Easy walking distance to beautiful Main Street with great food and shopping.

If you are looking for a comfortable place to stay in a peaceful location close to downtown Franklin, look no further! Up a quaint, winding road, nestled in the trees is a wonderful two bedroom ground level apartment waiting just for you. Once you arrive you will be warmly greeted by your hosts Dave, Barb & Beans who are always available but never intrusive. Their view is wonderful! The property exactly as described. You Can’t ask for more! And I can’t wait to go back!

Cannot say enough good things! Spectacular view, cozy space, everything and anything you could need. Great location for hiking locally and beyond. We had a great stay and can’t wait to go back :)

We enjoyed our stay! The cabin was very comfortable and cozy. We loved the fireplace! Kitchen was well stocked. As mentioned in the description, there is a garage on the property with an apartment above where the owners stay occasionally. It is located in a community vs remote, so not uber private but still quiet! We would definitely stay here again.

We can’t think of a thing that could be improved. The cabin was immaculate so hats off to the cleaners! Everything was just as described in the pictures! It is definitely the most well appointed property that we have rented! So many extra little touches and gifts! We enjoyed the location of this cabin very much! It is located directly next door to a top rated trail in the area and we could just walk there! The town of Sylva was delightful and had lots of cute shops and places to eat.

Lex’s directions were perfect in getting us to the cabin. The view was amazing and we enjoyed spending time on the deck with the fireplace. There was plenty of wood to burn so my boyfriend was able to keep a fire going as long as he wanted. There were great options to go for meals, we enjoyed Hoppy Trout Brewery in Andrews. Checking in and out were very easy and Lex was very quick to respond to my messages. We would love to come back again!

Beautiful cabin with fantastic view. Loved the Jacuzzi.

Darrell & Keith were great! Darrell responded to any questions we had within minutes. The place was very clean and is exactly what you’re looking for with a cabin in the mountains. This was our first time in Bryson City, but we will definitely be back and staying at this exact spot! Highly recommend!

Had a beautiful and peaceful stay at Luna lodge! Mary was very thorough in communication with details prior to arrival and a check in after. Although a very private area, I really appreciated the privacy visors that surrounded the porch out front. Since it is spring and you are still able to see through the trees, that is a nice extra touch to have! Very minimal traffic throughout my stay, but when I did see neighbors, we exchanged friendly waves. I felt very at ease and peace throughout my stay and was able to have my dog; to which he also enjoyed the quiet and watching the birds morning and night. Would love to plan another visit!

Peaceful. The location was stunning, the cabin was cozy, and the fact we could hike all around the property was amazing. There was no reason to leave this place. My kids enjoyed fishing on the pond and hiking the trails. Amazing experience!

The cabin was perfect. Loved the sound of the stream behind it. Great place to get away and relax. Hosts responded quickly when we had a question. No complaints from us.
