    We went to Bryson City to ride on the Old North Carolina...

    We went to Bryson City to ride on the Old North Carolina Railroad on a trip through Nantahala Gorge. This trip takes 4 hours and is really nice. It includes a stop at the Nantahala Outdoor Center. There is food, drink and alcohol available on the train, and also at Nantahala. The restaurants in town were very good, especially Pasqualinos Italian Restaurant, which was excellent. There were cute stores, the town did not look tired, nor did it have lots of vacant store fronts. It has free parking, which is a nice change from some towns, and is highly walkable. There is a river running through it, which is quite pretty. It borders Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and has access to several trails, including the Tunnel to Nowhere. The lodging choices were limited, but we didn't have trouble getting a room for the first weekend in May.

    Bryson City is a beautiful little town with lots of cute shops and interesting history. The town only has one sit down diner for breakfast and it stays very busy, The evening options are quite diverse and offer a variety of menus and prices, The streets are nice for walking along, and some benches are available to sit, the town features fiberglass 'trout' in different designs and colors, so look for these as interesting photo oppportunities. The Swain County Museum is really interesting as well. The are multiple hiking/walking trails in the area and don't forget to visit the 'Road to Nowhere'. The highlight of the town is the Great Smoky Mountains Railway and Miniature Train Museum.

    Bryson City is a Gem!! Things to do...

    Bryson City is a Gem!! Things to do... Definitely a must is the Train!!! Splurge for the first class tickets with lunch and request the Harper Car with Steve!!! (Adults only) It'll be worth the little bit of extra money, I promise!! Next, Make reservations with GTR Adventures (right across from the railroad museum, on Depot St.) Ask for Robbie and he will give you an Itinerary of places off the beaten path to go see via ATV!!! Bucket List Trip, for sure!! Falls, Road to Nowhere, Tubing, and you are so close to other Adventures in Cherokee, Fontana Dam, Maggie Valley... One place for FOOD in Bryson City that I can recommend without hesitation is Pasqualino's Italian Restaurant!!! Hands Down, the best Italian ever and the best wait staff, starting with Jackson!!!! Amazing service!!! Sooo many Gluten Free Options, including freshly made bread from the local bakery from down the street! It was the only place we ate inside Bryson City, and we ate there twice! There are lots of places to shop, snack and eat. We went during the off season. What we loves the most about Bryson City was the people. Everywhere we went, we were welcomed. Thank you Bryson City for the memories!

    I love Bryson City!!

    I love Bryson City!! It's not too far from where I live and it's just a nice getaway for the weekend. Lots to do here and great places to eat and drink. It should meet all of your needs. Plus the surrounding towns offer exciting activities also so you're in the center of it all. Definitely hit the Everett Diner for breakfast! Jimmy Macs and the Iron Wok for dinner. If you like a nice cold beer then definitely visit the local brewery, Mountain Layers Brewing Company.

    We came for the train ride for our anniversary.

    We came for the train ride for our anniversary. The town is very pretty at Christmas. But there is no where to eat. It's mostly fast food. 2 or 3 mom & pop places. We ate at 3 of those and they were very good but way too high for the food. Got burgers both places & it cost us as much for those as it does a steak dinner. And outside of downtown, everywhere we went everything looked run down and trashy. It's almost like there are no limit to how much trash and vehicles a person can put in their yard. Jimmy Macs was good, but pricey. Bryson City Bakery was really good but $28 for a breakfast sandwich, a coffee, a cinnamon roll & a breakfast casserole muffin.

    Bryson City has a lot to offer from eating, shopping, and outdoor experiences with the close location of The Great Smoky Mountains and other wilderness areas to enjoy. My family and I took my son to the Polar Express if you haven't had this experience, I highly suggest it.

    we enjoyed the cabin, although the dirt road to get up there is a little sketchy, you just have to maintain your speed going up and down, it was away from everywhere, so if you are looking for a quiet place to get away from people then this is your cabin. to get to Bryson City, it's only about 10 minutes away. the beds were very comfortable, The kitchen had more than enough supplies if you intend on cooking at the cabin.

    Location was amazing, view from dining area over the river was great, place was clean, had WiFi and Roku, kitchen appliances good, washer and dryer were handy, bed comfortable, bathroom clean, good hot shower, gas grill was nice. Fun to watch the fly fishermen wading and floating on the river, nice to see the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad train on the other side of the river. Easy drive into Bryson City or Cherokee.

    Shower had no pressure and took forever to get warm, no shower curtain, had to request one, no covers on lighting fixtures, rooms need lamps, obviously undergoing upgrades and not quite ready for guests. Had to request clean towels three times. Quiet location, convenient to Bryson City, friendly staff. Hopefully by the time summer rolls around they will have it together. Room 110 had a broken spring in the mattress

    We recently stayed at this lodge and were thoroughly impressed by the superb value it offers. The lodge is impeccably clean, is in a great location with easy access to trails (and Bryson City), and provides a fantastic night's sleep. One of the highlights of our stay was the amazing fire pits where we could gather and meet other guests. Would highly recommend.

    This little hotel was a treat. I am a Hampton Inn devotee - with high expectations - but when no HI was nearby I gambled on this and was pleasantly surprised! Clean as a whistle and extremely accommodating staff. Sweetest breakfast service staff ever. Comfortable beds and pillows. What more can you ask?

    The room was small but very clean, and the mattress felt new and comfortable. The gentleman in the office was courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable. The room rates were considerably less than what I have paid in Bryson City for rooms in larger hotels that provided the same basic services.

    I loved the river behind the hotel. Especially the little fire pit/picnic area with grills. We sat with some of the other guests our second night of the stay and talked with them around a bonfire. It was very nice! Would definitely stay again if in the area.
