About this place

Beautiful Deep Creek Home. Private Hot Tub. Pool Table. Close to Town and National Park. Private backyard on Deep Creek.

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.
