Neighborhood

Sophie's Choice Cabin rests at the end of a private road on 5.6 wooded acres. You pass other houses getting to the cabin but it is very private and secluded once there. There is a seasonal long range mountain view. The cabin is very close to town, the grocery store, the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, and the Polar Express train depot. The town of Bryson City just continues to get more and more like a Hallmark movie! It's small town feel with quaint boutiques, breweries, and restaurants surrounded by mountains and the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad makes you feel right at home with its Southern Charm. The spring and summer months bring festivals and numerous outdoor activities, the fall foliage is magnificent, and the winter brings us The Polar Express and snow skiing at Cataloochee Resort. Harrah's Casino offers fabulous dining and entertainment opportunities. So much to do...Boat Rentals. Rafting. Tubing. Hiking. Biking. Exploring.

Guest Access

Guests have full access to the entire Sophie's Choice property, including the surrounding woods, perfect for exploring and enjoying nature. Feel free to roam the grounds and make the most of your stay in this peaceful retreat!

Our family of 4 had an amazing visit at Sophie’s Place! It was exactly what we hoped for on our quick getaway. It’s was just our family, but this home would be great for 2 families, too.. The house was so well stocked (I loved the labels in the kitchen) and comfortable. The hot tub was perfect, views breathtaking. Bryson City was close and wonderful, too. Consider us future returning guests!!

The location is fantastic! It is on a country mountain road with some of it being gravel, but don't let that dissuade you from choosing this cabin. It is an absolute gem! Nothing. It is a great place for one or two families or a group to go and get away from the hustle and bustle of life and enjoy being together in nature. There was no lack of anything there. All necessities were provided for and lots of room to go relax or play games.

Plenty of room for parking at the cabin in a flat area. The road to the cabin is maintained regularly. You pass a few houses getting to the cabin at the end of the road where you then have 5.6 private wooded acres to enjoy. If 3 or less cars, it is easy to pull in and turn around in the parking area. If you have more than 3 cars, it is best to back in for an easier exit.
