★ A Moroccan oasis for two, deep in the woods.



Laughing Water is a round hard-wall yurt at Elk Hollow, tucked into the trees with a stream running just below the deck. A community trail with footbridges and benches winds through the woods nearby. The loudest things here are birdsong, the stream, and the wind in the trees.

♥ WHO IT'S FOR

Couples. Anniversaries, honeymoons, or a quiet reset for two. Quiet by design, so it's a getaway, not a party house.



🚗 GETTING HERE

The arrival is part of it: a wooded trail of about 38 steps leads up to the deck, with five more down to the fire pit. It earns the seclusion, but it's a real climb, so pack light and skip this one if stairs are a problem. Easy drive in otherwise, no 4WD needed. Five minutes from downtown Bryson City, right by the Deep Creek entrance to the Smokies.

    This place is very well represented in the photos and quite private. We absolutely enjoyed the space, and its proximity to great hiking (the national park is like 100 yards down the road). The deck, hot tub and fire pit are very near a running stream, adding to the peaceful wooded surroundings. We would most definitely stay here again! Thanks, Jeanetta!

    My wife and I have visited this area for several years to celebrate anniversary’s because we love the mountains and by FAR this experience has been the highlight of all trips. Jeannette the host was awesome to work with. We would recommend this to anyone looking for a private and peaceful stay near Bryson City area. Without a doubt we will be back, we wrote names of other yurts and safari tents we want to check out. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise and we will see you again!
