Fisherman's Dream ON THE RIVER!!!!!
If being on the water is a must for you, you're sure to love Fisherman's Dream. You can't get any closer to the water. Located on the Tuckaseegee River, you can fish directly from the porch! Great news the campground is under new ownership with new amenities. A hot tub, fire pit and playground have been added for guests to enjoy. There are also new bathrooms and a laundromat. We are a mile from downtown. We would be considered a tiny home or park model cabin. Guests have said it is big enough for your family of 4 to not feel cramped. Located in the Great Smoky Mountains, we are close to hiking, rafting, tubing, and kayaking. You'll feel right at home if you enjoy any of these activities, or just want to relax and enjoy the river view. Fishing from the deck is definitely a plus. Our quaint little town has been voted one of the top 10 small towns to visit with local breweries and The Great Smoky Mountain Railroad.
The space Convenient river access near by makes it your Fisherman's Dream.. A maximum of 4 guests is our policy. NO MORE!
The bedroom has a queen size bed and plenty of storage. The other sleeping space is an open loft with headroom only, great for kids or young teens. It has a full size bed mattress and is accessible by ladder only. The LR has a pull out sofa in case you can't climb the ladder to the loft. :) Linens are provided free of charge for your stay. We just ask that you remove them before leaving. After all if you had to bring your own, you would remove them. Thank you in advance we appreciate your understanding.
A galley kitchen is well stocked with all the pots and pans, dishes, glasses and utensils you will need to prepare and enjoy your meals. you need to bring your spices, oil etc, as well as your paper products, including garbage bags and dish soap. There is enough to get you started. The coffee pot is a combination pot/pod. Coffee filters are provided for the regular full size coffee pot.
The bathroom has a tub/shower combo.Towels are provided free of charge for you stay. One set per person. That consists of 1 bath towel, 1 hand towel, 1 washcloth. If you don't use a towel more than once, you need to bring your own. Thank you for understanding.
Kids love feeding the ducks & geese with food provided in the feed box on the covered deck. Fishing from the deck is an added bonus

We had a short but nice 2 night stay in the early fall. We slept comfortably and enjoyed waking up with the river right beside us. The cabin is nicely decorated and well stocked to cook if you prefer. You can fish right off the deck.
Great owner! Beautifully decorated, pet friendly; cozy, cabin-style mini home! There's a great covered deck overlooking the river. Cabin is stocked will with all you need to cook with. The bed sleeps well. A/C works great. Awesome location on the river and very close to town. Definitely a must stay again kind of rental.
The best place to stay in the area. People are nice, the view and scenery are amazing. Cabin 4 is love! Close to everything. Thank you Bryson City Till next time! God bless! - Mike and Kristine
Property owner, Tammy, was amazing and easy to communicate with. Little cabin was cute, clean and in a great location. The covered porch was amazing and feeding the ducks a huge perk. We were not there much and didn't cook there but it was comfortable and met all of our needs. There are other cabins close to this one but there was no noise or anything. You really felt like you were there by yourself. We will be staying again soon.
The cabin was beautiful. We thought we were booking a cabin with easy direct fishing access and that wasn't the case. Also I don't remember reading that we were in a campground. Everything was quiet at night though. The host was very nice and helpful with questions about the area.
Cabin was clever, clean and very cute. It was not the kind of campground we expected (no woods, greenspace, etc.) and the cabin was one of several close together. That said, folks were very friendly, the deck was right on the river with tremendous amount of birds, people fishing. Saw herons, eagles and families of geese. Stayed on the deck much of the time we were at the cabin. Noticed many of the campgrounds in the area were this sort. Host was very accommodating.
Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022

First of all, I have never left a bad review and I’ve stayed at numerous places in the mountains so this is my first. Beware! Cabin is in an Rv park. Sugar ants throughout the cabin. Checking in, I had to get with the neighbor then 20min later he had to get with his wife to get the code. The digital lock works about half the time. The window unit AC WILL NOT cool down the cabin. It’s basically a sweat lodge in the summer. Broken glass in the Rv park from weekend stayers. Cut my furry friends paw (nothing major) but bad enough for him to limp the rest of the trip. Not enough water pressure to shower and do dishes at the same time, it’s one or the other. Large burner on the stovetop does not work. The permanent Neighbors are about the most unpleasant people I’ve seen. If this cabin was free, I still wouldn’t stay here again.
What a great cabin! It’s so close to the downtown area and such a cozy location right on the river. Tammy is so friendly and accommodating as well. We would love to come back!
My son and I came to Bryson to do some trout fishing. This cabin and location worked perfectly for our purposes. Everything was clean and ready for our arrival. The view from the deck of the river was great.
