Azalea Creek Falls - Free Whitewater Rafting + Modern Cabin + Breathtaking View

Free Activities Included Every Day! To enhance your vacation experience, free admissions are included every day of your stay to some of the most popular attractions the area has to offer such as the Biltmore, Smoky Mountain Railroad, white water rafting, jeep excursions, and more! Daily value of $250.

Azalea Creek Falls is the lastest addition to our 'Smoky Mountain Modern' collection. Clean, minimalist style and decor, combined with sleek architecture and all the latest technology make this collection highly popular. This property is centrally located in "The Falls" community only minutes from Bryson City or the Nanatahala River. At the end of an active day enjoying all the area attractions, you return to this mountainside perch and enjoy the giant windows the bring the magnificent view inside. Feature-rich, this home has free and fast internet, smart TVs, a ping-pong table, home theater, and ribbon-flame fireplace.

kitchen

The sleek glass-tile walls of the kitchen are the backdrop to open shelves, ample drawers, and amazing quartz, waterfall island. Fully stocked well beyond 'just a rental' standards, you'll be able to make this home your own for group dinners or BBQs (gas grill plus spare tank provided). Wave your hand under the shelf and the motion-sensor LEDs magically illumnate, or press the hidden data-port and it gracefully emerges from the countertop to expose USB charging ports and extra outlets. These are the features that prove without a doubt that exceptional functionality can indeed come packaged with excellent style.

great room

The great room features the aforementioned kitchen, plus an enormous living and dining area with table suitable for seating 6. The decor features a ribbon-flame gas-log fireplace, Smart TV, and minimalist decor, all flanked by a giant wall of windows towering to 20 feet. Fast Wi-Fi with installed SlingTV service as well as other premium brands such as Netflix allow viewing almost anything your group's collective hearts desire.

sleeping accommodations

All our cabins feature both down and foam pillows as well as down comforters with all-cotton duvet covers. Each bed has luxury mattress and high thread count, all-cotton linens. Designer-quality towels are provided for the base number of occupancy with additional stock towels, and even a black face-cloth in each bathroom for makeup removal.

main floor

The master bedroom is just off the kitchen and features a king bed, Smart TV, dedicated dual-sink bathroom, and private access through the large window-wall out to a private deck. There you'll find a breathtaking view to enjoy from the cushioned, modern-adirondack chairs.

Also on the main floor is a second king bedroom with a dedicated bathroom and Smart TV. It may be useful to know that this room stays a little warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

downstairs

Just down the open staircase is the massive rec room with ping-pong table and sliding doors out to the lower deck. Also on this floor is the custom home theater room featuring a sectional sofa, sliding barn door and blackout shade for a totally-enclosed surround-sound experience. This level also has the third bedroom featuring a queen bed, private bathroom, and Smart TV.

Wonderful stay at Azalea Creek!
We really enjoyed our time here! The view was beautiful and the cabin had some great amenities. Sitting in the hot tub and enjoying the view was definitely a highlight! All in all the cabin was clean we we arrived, but the following items do need some attention: There was a stain on the comforter in the master bedroom, dust on the kitchen shelves, considerable dust beneath the beds, and some bird droppings on the patio furniture. I know the last one is hard to control but this looked like it had been there awhile. To be clear, we would absolutely stay at this property again but wanted to provide this as honest feedback for some quick fixes.

Mountain vacation
The property and house are amazing! Our family of three (including a 3 year old) had a wonderful time here. The house is well appointed, the view is spectacular and worth every dollar. The drive up (and down) the mountain is one of the better ones in the area we have experienced. The road is wider and has two places where the waterfall crosses, generating a natural experience, which is rarely duplicated. Even with snow on the driveway and road we felt very comfortable without having to rely on 4WD. The hot tub, ping pong table, and fire pit added to the experience. We will definitely enjoy to stay at this property in the future! Note: the driveway has plenty of parking and room to turn around vehicles. Added plus, we noticed there is an EV charger for anyone with electric vehicles.

New Year vacation
The unit is extremely clean and well-kept. Various amenities made our stay more enjoyable. The road was a little tight but we managed. The WI FI would be our only complaint. Both couples are small business owners and need high-speed internet to conduct some work and stay productive on vacation. One couple left early to conduct payroll. My ONLY advice would be to upgrade the WI FI. Other than that we [lan to post extremely positive reviews online and only provide this negative as a suggestion.

Awesome Getaway!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Bryson City area! Great location is close to Highlands, Bryson City, Franklin, and Asheville. The house is perfect! Breathtaking views, everything you could want for a vacation at the house. We enjoyed the hot tub and the theater too! We tried to use the fire pit, but couldn't get it lit. It looked like a "key" is needed but we couldn't find one or instructions. Only constructive feedback though. Everything else was AMAZING!

Marriage Mountain Retreat
My girlfriends and I decided to plan a mountain retreat for us and our husband's. It was wonderful. A bit stressful driving up because on our way in it began to snow.....a lot. Once we turned on the road leading up to the cabin, the roads were covered. We drove 2 SUV's, so that helped. The roads are narrow and curvy. There's even 2 small streams that run over the road on the way up to the cabin. Theres plenty of parking. Getting inside was simple. We had the codes sent 2 days before our check in. The cabin is exactly like the pictures you see. It was clean, but a few things could have used a bit more attention. Like a couple windows weren't clean (we saw baby handprints and streaks), the floor under the dining table wasn't swept too good, and there was a nice hair ball on the mat going out to the back patio. I hate seeing hair that I know is not mine. But I will give them a pass because it was snowing pretty hard. It wasn't enough to call and complain. We swept, got the hairball, and enjoyed ourselves. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. I would have preferred there be a larger sofa in the living room but it was nicely decorated nonetheless. The kitchen is beautiful. It's stocked but I wouldn't say fully stocked as far as pots and pans. We made due. If you have a large skillet, gridle, or crockpot you enjoy cooking with, then you should bring it. We enjoyed the games, ping pong table, fire pit (we made smores), and hot tub. Everything about this cabin was really nice. We would definitely stay again. FYI....there are a lot of lady bugs and the water pressure wasn't the strongest especially when some were taking showers.

Beautiful view but unresponsive host
If this review addressed only the property I would rate it 4.5 stars. However our experience with the host was quite poor. There were no replies to our questions and emails in the weeks prior to the beginning rental date. A scant 36 hours before check in did we hear anything from the host and then the check-in information was incomplete and in one important way erroneous. We were given the wrong street address which led to considerable lost time finding the property. We were also not told that the neighborhood roads are very steep and narrow as is the drive to the rental. I suspect that the house is inaccessible with any snow or ice on the roads or after a big rain. All that said, the house itself is a minimalist's delight with a beautiful view.

Top-of-the-mountain, Awesome!
If you cannot tell by the title, we loved this place. It’s basically brand new and super modern. Its kitchen is stocked with all the appliances you could want, the hot tub is brand new and clean, and the view out the back is breathtaking. The outside: The place has a wrap-around covered deck/porch that starts at the front door. There’s a separate deck/balcony for the master suite in the back. The gas grill is covered and brand new. It’s near the back of the deck. It’s propane and is hooked up to the on-site buried propane tank. In fact, that propane tank looks to fuel the fire pit as well. It may heat the hot tub, but I don’t remember looking. It’s a walkout basement. When you go out of the basement there’s a covered area for a really nice outdoor table and chairs. There’s also a brand-new hot tub. It’s covered as well. And there’s also an outdoor fire pit. The fire pit is fueled with propane and has decorative glass beads to cover the burner. All the outdoor appliances that run off of the buried propane have a timer valve that can go up to 60 minutes. So you’ll need to use the valves to get the appliance to work. Inside: A kitchen with every dish, appliance, and utensil you could need. The dishwasher works great. The counter tops and the island look to be quartz. All the lights are controlled by fancy switches that are labelled with pictures. You’ll just have to figure it out. Each outdoor light has a small light on a timer and a larger light that is not on a timer. If you want it really dark when you go to bed, you’ll need to turn off the smaller timed outdoor lights after they turn on. Except for the doors, all the shades are automatically controlled. You can raise and lower them all at once or one at a time. I’m pretty sure the shades in the main area will go down in the afternoon on their own to keep the heat down. And the view…It’s awesome! Each of the upstairs bedrooms has its own closet and bathroom. The master has a bigger closet and bathroom and closet as well as a balcony with automatic shades. Downstairs has a bedroom with a bathroom right next to it. There’s a ping pong table and a theatre room. Oh, and the railing, both inside and out is perfect for hanging clothes. Overall, we loved the cabin. If we go back to Bryson City, we’ll definitely try and stay there again.

A Beautiful Home
Probably the best place we've ever rented: clean and modern and comfortable. The real star here is the house, but the quiet and secluded setting with the stunning view are equally amazing. Well situated for activities in and around the Smokies and a side trip to Asheville. Note that there is no hot tub as of June 2021, despite the listing.

I spent 4 nights at this cabin with my wife and 2 kids (12 and 15). The house is brand new and very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, the appliances as great and we made all of our meals in the house. And there is the view !!!!!! What a spectacular balcony. Grilling on the balcony with that view was really unique.

The cabin was brand new and the yard/surroundings were still under development. Would benefit of a fire burning outside fireplace and a hot tub to earn 5 stars. We did not mind it but as somebody else might. We transported app 40 ladybugs out from the cabin during our 4 day stay.
