This home and it's best feature, The View, suffer from months/years of neglect. Trees have been allowed to completely blot out the long range mountain views which are the only reason one would want to rent a home at 4,000 ft elevation. The rest of the home equally disappoints - broken/missing and non-functioning blinds, broken and missing window screens that prevent you from airing out the home thoroughly which is extremely important given the powerful odor of mold and mouse urine emanating from the lower level. Had we need of the two lower bedrooms (we only had two people, so could sleep in ground floor master), we would have never remained in the home as the smell is so overwhelming to be intolerable.
Beer cans strewn around the upper deck and laying in the weeds over the rail from the hot tub greeted our arrival along with an uncleaned portable charcoal grill chockfull of burned briquets sitting in the middle of the picnic table on the deck. The deck is small and mostly covered by an overhanging maple tree and gate and side rail to the stairs leading down the side of the home are in disrepair as to be visibly unsafe.
Tree saplings are growing out of the gutters and the exterior wood is riddled with carpenter bee damage and the home should have been painted years ago.
It was our 12th rental in the Bryson City area in the last 10 years, and it is my FIRST negative review.
