Your Cozy Smoky Mtn Basecamp for Adventure (and S’mores) Hot Tub,• 2 Kings

Welcome to The Toasted Marshmallow, a sweet little mountain hideaway where relaxing comes naturally and the stars really show off at night. If your idea of a perfect getaway includes soaking in a hot tub under the open sky, roasting marshmallows by the fire, and waking up to cool mountain air… congratulations. You just found your cabin.

This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath mountain retreat is tucked peacefully into the hillside and makes the perfect place to relax after a day of adventure. Whether you're here for waterfalls, casinos, hiking trails, or simply doing absolutely nothing in a hot tub, this cabin delivers the full Smoky Mountain experience.

The Perfect Basecamp for Exploring the Smokies

One of the best things about The Toasted Marshmallow is its location. You're close to some of the most loved mountain towns and outdoor adventures in Western North Carolina.

Nearby favorites include:

• Bryson City – charming downtown shops, restaurants, the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, and tubing along the river
• Cherokee – home of Harrah’s Casino, cultural attractions, elk viewing, and access to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
• Dillsboro – a quaint little town known for its artisan shops, breweries, and small-town charm
• Sylva – a beautiful mountain town with great restaurants, breweries, and one of the most photographed courthouses in the region

Outdoor lovers will have plenty to keep them busy:

🏔 Waterfalls
🥾 Hiking trails
🚣 Kayaking & tubing
⛳ Golf courses
🌲 Endless mountain views and fresh air

After a day of exploring, coming back to the cabin feels like the reward.

What You’ll Love About the Cabin
Two King Bedrooms

No one gets the “lesser bedroom.” Both rooms feature comfortable king-size beds, soft linens, and Smart TVs for winding down after a day of adventure.

Fully Equipped Kitchen

The large eat-in kitchen comes stocked with cookware, dishes, and utensils so you can cook as much (or as little) as you like.

Coffee lovers are covered with both a traditional coffee maker and a Keurig, plus starter coffee to get your morning started right.

Cozy Living Room

The spacious living area features a large Smart TV, Blu-ray player, and an electric fireplace that creates the perfect cozy atmosphere after a day outside.

Bathroom

One full bathroom with a shower (no tub).

Outdoor Relaxation Mode
Fire Pit with Twinkle Lights

When the sun goes down, the magic starts. Gather around the fire pit under soft twinkle lights, roast marshmallows, tell stories, or just enjoy the quiet mountain night.

Hot Tub Under the Stars

The 4-person hot tub sits outside near the fire pit, right on the ground and open to the sky. No roof, no ceiling… just warm water, cool mountain air, and a sky full of stars.

We even provide robes and slippers so you can fully lean into vacation mode.

Porch with Mountain Air

Enjoy meals or morning coffee outside while soaking up the peaceful mountain setting.

Dog Friendly

Your four-legged travel companion is welcome here!

🐾 Dogs allowed with a $45 non-refundable fee

Extra Cabin Perks

• Smart TVs in both bedrooms and the living room
• Blu-ray DVD players for movie nights
• All linens and towels provided
• Plenty of parking
• Traveling with friends or family? We have 6 other cabins nearby so everyone can stay close.

A Friendly Mountain Heads-Up

When we say mountains… we really mean mountains.

Dillsboro starts around 1,975 ft elevation, and mountain roads are often gravel, curvy, and a bit steeper than city roads. It’s all part of the charm.

There is one larger gravel hill on the way to the cabin. We regularly drive a Hyundai Sonata up it without issue. Just keep a steady 10 mph pace going up and you should be fine. AWD can help but is not required.

If your vehicle has traction control, turning it off while climbing can help.

• A $250 security deposit hold will be placed on your card 3 days before arrival

✨ In short:
Adventure all day in Bryson City, Cherokee, Dillsboro, and Sylva… then come home to a bubbling hot tub, a glowing fire pit, and the quiet magic of the Smoky Mountains.

The Toasted Marshmallow is the kind of place guests book once… and start planning their return before they leave.

Lovely cabin with gorgeous views. This cabin was full of all the amenities you need for your stay, there are so many quaint little details that make this place really special, and it was clean; just as pictured. We especially loved the hot tub and sitting on the porch in the morning taking in the views! Plus the host was great! They provided detailed instructions and were very responsive. Would definitely book again. Thank you!

The Hot tub temp was too low when we got there. Starting at 88 degrees it was not ready till the next day of our short stay. Having no bathroom soap is pretty much unforgivable. Having no wine opener was a bummer. The bed in the bedroom with the sliding glass door is not the most comfortable we've come across at a VRBO.

My husband, myself and our senior furbaby had a great 3 day, 4 night stay at this cabin! The view from the back porch/master bedroom was stunning, we happened to have great timing with the fall foliage/colors. Everything was as advertised and we especially appreciated the privacy, only three neighbors total within eyesight, the hot tub is completely private, and we barely even knew the others were there. The cabin was extremely comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The directions to the cabin were clear, we had no issues finding or driving up to it, and check in/out was an absolute breeze. We appreciated that we didn't have to strip beds or worry about any chores other than washing the dishes (by hand, no dishwasher, but no biggie!) before heading back home. This cabin has a lot of cute little touches too, from the bear paw oven mitt to the word search wall-art by the toilet. The only thing we would have changed was the shower-head - since the shower is a stall and I'm fairly short I found myself getting sprayed in the face constantly with no way to escape it as the shower-head wasn't adjustable down far enough. But that's small potatoes for an otherwise fantastic cabin - we would definitely stay here again!

What can I say about this cabin that hasn't already been said at least 10 times over. The drive up to the cabin from the highway is intimating the 1st time, so I suggest that you arrive during daylight hours. After that its a piece of cake or pie... The cabin is extremely well appointed with almost every detail being very well thought out. Although screens for the slider doors would be nice when the weather is cooler. The owners are extremely quick to answer questions. All in all we had a very pleasant stay with simple check in and check out procedures. Would definitely stay at any of Chucks cabins again... 10/10

Beautiful little retreat

Love the location, though the drive to get up there would be much better handled by an SUV than our hybrid sedan. Centrally located to a lot of the little towns and activities, we did the Scenic Railway ride and white water rafting out of Bryson City, gem mining in Cherokee, and relaxed in the hot tub, made a campfire and cooked s'mores, and played games at the cabin. Very comfortable, perfect for two people and the WiFi was actually pretty good for streaming our favorite show.

Toasted Marshmallow Cabin

From day 1 communication with owners was great. The driveway is very steep, but very typical for the area. Whimsical property with fireflies and frogs, very calming and beautiful mountain view! We felt extremely safe, and even got a wave from the neighbors across the way which was reassuring as a mom with 1 kid on the trip! Everyone in town was friendly, swinging bridge 2 minutes away from property! Fully stocked comfortable stay, with great phone signal!!! I requested an accomodation to add another day and the owners were so prompt in response cannot speak higher of their service amongst the stay! Highly reccommend!!!!

Birthday celebration in the mountains

We booked our weekend trip to Toasted MarshMellow at the last minute to celebrate my birthday. Chuck and Sandy are excellent hosts. They checked in with us to make sure we had everything needed for our trip. We have stayed at several of the cabins offered and we keep coming back because we always have a wonderful stay. The views are incredible. The cabins are fully stocked with everything you could possibly want or need. Their location is private yet convenient to all local activities. The hosts go above and beyond to make sure you have a wonderful experience. There are board games for the kids. For me being a pet parent a special touch was a basket with towels for the doggies. Our pups always love exploring. Thanks for a fantastic visit.I’m sure we will be back in a few months !

Quiet and relaxing weekend.

We stayed here the weekend before Christmas 2024, and it was perfect. The cabin is near a few other properties, but far enough away to where you don’t hear or see other people. The cabin was also decorated for Christmas which was a nice touch. The kitchen was well-stocked for a rental property. It was nice and cold during our stay so we really enjoyed the hot tub. The cabin is also conveniently located between Sylva and Bryson City if you want to go out and explore the area. We had a great stay, and would definitely book here again!

The cutest and daintiest little cabin we have stayed in. It was perfect for my husband and I. It had everything we needed for our 3 day stay. The host is very responsive and was always there for any questions we had. The location was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. We loved sitting outside by the fire pit and hopping in and out of the hot tub relaxing. It was a getaway from a busy couple of months for the holiday season. It is exactly what we needed and we rested and enjoyed the comfort of the cabin. The location has a great view overlooking the mountains. The Location of the fire pit and hot tub is private and peaceful. It was decorated for Christmas and extremely clean. The owners of the cabin think of everything you need. Has plenty of games to play at night, TVs in every room, K beds in both of the bedrooms, which are very comfortable. he is the perfect place for a small family or a 2 couples. We will be back.

Game Day Getaway

Toasted Marshmallow is such a cute cabin and has something for everyone: unique decor, outdoor covered seating, a fire pit with more chairs, and a gurgling garden fountain. Just right for 2-5 people! The only real issue is the gravel access road, which requires a slow and steady attack in order to make it tonthe top. Our host, however, offered very cleqr instructions on how to do that, and we had no problems.
