Exceeded our expectations! Had everything we needed and more for a comfortable, week-long girls’ trip! Beautifully kept grounds, fantastic views, quiet seclusion and extra amenities like trails on site & bbq grill that we wish we had had time to use. So close to all the fun activities. Already planning a return trip!

It was a wonderful stay! The sunset cottage was so cute and well kept, we were very comfortable! And the view was gorgeous! Thank you so much for a warm, inviting stay in Bryson City!

Had a great stay at the cabin. The location was perfect and everything inside the cabin was great. We really enjoyed the views and the firepit and our boys loved the game room. Close to Bryson city and the Deep creek area of GSM. Highly recommend!

Living and vacationing in cities does not prepare you for the peace of mind and joy that comes from staying at Settler’s Mountain. This is the kind of place that will draw you back for more. The rentals are prepared for a very comfortable stay and I’ll definitely find my way back with more family to share this paradise with.
