This is a very nice, comfortable house in a great location. It’s a block from Main Street, shops and restaurants. It’s also close to the Nantahala, Deep Creek, hiking, boating,etc. We would definitely stay here again

We enjoyed our time together there the house had everything you needed and close to downtown.

This home was so comfortable. Great communication, everything you need, and a wonderful location. You can walk to everything in town, But, it’s still quiet and privateBeds were very comfortable

Easy to find. Very clean and lots of extra touches. Had everything you needed. Beds very comfortable. Loved the swing outside. Home away from home. Will definitely be returning. Victor is a great host.

It was incredible! Immaculate and well-appointed. So cozy and close to everything. Fresh and clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our two nights. Parking was so easy in the large, paved driveway. Grounds had a cottage feel and were lovely! Victor has been so gracious and responsive. We love this VRBO…one of our faves!

Awesome location, nicely decorated, firepit was the bomb, relaxing place with nice touches noted. Coffee station was great! Anything you would need to make a meal if you wanted. You will not be disappointed!

AFTER SEVERAL VRBO BOMBS, THE RECTOR RETREAT WAS A BLESSING.

The rental was lovely! Comfortable, clean, and within walking distance of the town and GSMR. Victor was responsive and helpful, and we loved our stay! I only wish we had booked more time. I would love to come here again!

Excellent accommodations, clean, attention to detail

Where to start? House is adorable and clean. Location is as good as it gets. Walked for dinner, lunch and breakfast. Nice folks all over the place. Shops and restaurants made it a great week as well as the train ride. We’ll be back!!

We really enjoyed our 3-night stay at the Rector Street Retreat! Location is quiet but can easily walk anywhere in Bryson City. House is clean and the kitchen is well stocked! We would definitely stay here again.

Loved the welcoming touches throughout the home. We enjoyed a private stay. If you are traveling with a toddler, gratefully there are child locks on cabinets in bathroom and under kitchen sink. The host is responsive and thoughtful. If you visit in the late fall/winter you'll love the Christmas tree!

Place exactly as advertised. Absolutely immaculate! Location on Rector Street quiet but within a stones throw from the heart of Bryson City. Great home in a great little town! We will be coming back again! 110% satisfied! Host does a great job of managing this property.

Charming home with great location to multiple areas. The home is in town giving us the ability to walk to restaurants, shopping, coffee shops and the train ride. Bryson City is a quaint town worth the visit.

We loved the cottage in Bryson City. It was equipped with everything we needed and more. The home was perfectly clean. No question about it. A perfect place to stay. I would highly recommend it to anyone traveling to Bryson City.

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It was clean, had everything we needed and was within walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Also, the host was very respectful and answered all of our questions promptly. We would definitely stay here again!

My husband and I loved Victor's house. The location could not have been better... Walking distance to everything in town, yet quiet, with beautiful views from the front porch and swing in the gazebo. Loved the cleanness and decor of the house. Highly recommend staying here. Thank you, Victor!

Location was great, walking distance to restaurants and shops. Close to hiking trails. House was clean and as advertised. Games for the kids was a nice touch and very much appreciated.

Very happy that I chose to stay here with my group of friends, house was very clean and neatly laid out. Ample parking and lovely location overlooking the city. Will definitely look to coming here again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean, spacious, and private. It was great to be able to walk downtown easily. The cottage had a cozy feel and the outdoor area was nice with several places to sit and a beautiful view from the swing. We hope to stay again!

We enjoyed cottage and had a great stay. Cottage in walking distance of most everything in Bryson City.

We stayed over the 4th of July long weekend. The house was perfect as it is within walking distance to all of downtown Bryson City. The house had everything that we needed plus some. We would go hiking during the day and park at the house and walk for dinner and drinks. The owner was very responsive. We had a great time!

Rector Street Retreat was the perfect place. It is a short walk to downtown Brycen City with shops and restaurants.

We had a great time. We have visited many many times but never stayed in town. We learned there are so many things to enjoy close by other than the train. The cottage was perfect. We would love to return. The host was wonderful and so accommodating.
