Nestled in the Great Smoky Mountains — just 15 minutes from downtown Bryson City and a short drive to Cherokee. Sunset Farms – Deer is a cozy, single-level 2-bedroom cabin made for an easy mountain escape. With a queen, a double bed and twin pull out couch it (comfortably sleeps 5), a full kitchen, fast WiFi, central A/C and heat, a smart TV, and fire pit for evening s'mores, it's got everything you need to unplug. Pet-friendly, so your dog is welcome to come along too.

You're just minutes from all the best of Western North Carolina — hop on the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, hike and tube the waterfalls at Deep Creek, paddle down the Nantahala, cast a line or float the Tuckasegee River, or head to Harrah's Cherokee for the evening. Spend your day exploring the national park, then return to the peaceful river valley and a quiet porch to relax on.

Inside, you'll find hard floors, plenty of natural light, and enough space to spread out comfortably — everything you need for a few relaxing, unplugged days in the mountains, close enough to town for dinner but far enough to truly get away.

Good to know: a comfortable 500 sq ft cabin with one full bath and free on-site parking, part of the small Sunset Farms community.
