About this property

The Bryson City Farmhouse - Railroad History in Downtown!

Our doors opened in June 2018 after 457 days of restoration! Featured in Our State's Around Town series and American Farmhouse, Sixty-One Park is a historic farmhouse located in the heart of downtown Bryson City. Bryson City has been called “The Tiny Town in the Middle of Everything” and Sixty-One Park is right downtown, just a short walk to the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, breweries, local parks and all the cutest shops and restaurants. Perfect set up for a family vacation or a trip with friends!

The Sixty-One Park Farmhouse has been fully brought up to date with all modern comforts while keeping all the farmhouse character. The farmhouse has 4 bedrooms and sleeps eight comfortably. The downstairs has an open floor plan with the kitchen, living room, dining room and game room. The farmhouse has multiple living areas for reading, resting and personal space. A large screen TV is located in the living room. We’ve stocked the farmhouse with books and board games as well. We’ve tried to think of every detail that will make your stay perfection. In the warmer months our succulent wall and National Park-inspired charcoal grill make for great entertaining. In November and December the house is fully decked out for Christmas and the Polar Express.

From Sixty-One Park you can walk to the nearby seasonal Friday farmers’ market for fresh produce from our local farmers, honey from our local beekeepers and crafts from local artisans. Walk along the river and put your feet in the cool water at nearby Island Park. Hop in the car and drive just 2.5 miles to the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Three waterfalls are within a short hiking distance and in the spring/summer you can bring your inner tube to float down the gentle rapids of Deep Creek. Nearby favorite day trips include Cherokee, Gatlinburg, and Asheville.

There is an external security camera actively recording the driveway outside of the house.

Perfect location for exploring Deep Creek's trio of waterfalls, and the Nantahala River Gorge. Wish we would have had one more day so we could check out all the interesting shops in downtown Bryson City. House was charming, cozy and exceptionally clean.

Loved the home-spacious, very clean, and well decorated; location was perfect for tubing at Deep Creek and whitewater rafting at NOC; enjoyed walks downtown; close to Darnell Farms (a must whenever in the area); granddaughters thoroughly enjoyed the nice flat backyard for playing volleyball.

Perfect place for Polar Express!

We took the grandkids (2 of which are crazy for trains) to ride the Polar Express and this property was perfect! From the close proximity (walking distance), to all the train related toys and books, the kids loved it! The house has tons of history and the owners took great care to preserve it. Every detail has been considered to make guests feel at home.

Our Happy Place is Bryson City

My family and I were thrilled to stay in another of Ashley's properties. We come to Bryson City every summer, and our best experiences have been when we stay at Hazel House and now the Farmhouse. The property is perfectly clean every time and well stocked. The beds are also beautifully comfortable, and we all slept great. We are looking forward to booking again for next summer!

Don't hesitate to book this house

This place was the best VRBO we have ever booked. We got exactly what we expected and then some. We met 2 of the owners and you couldn't ask for nicer people. Four of us travel together and we can't stop talking about it. If we were ever to come back to this area this will be the place we stay.

Perfect for girls trip

7 women in their 70 came together to celebrate their 60+ years of friendship. The location of the farmhouse is perfect. Easily walked to town and restaurants. Charming house. Owner/ hostess very easily to communicate with. Had everything we needed for a perfect weekend!! Bryson City is also a charming little mountain town.

Fantastic!

A beautiful historic home in a fantastic location made our getaway very enjoyable. Everything we needed was there. We had six adult guests and there was plenty of room inside or outside to enjoy each other’s company without feeling cramped. Town was walkable from the home (there is a bit of a hill on the return trip). The kitchen was well appointed and had what we needed. We easily parked three MINI Coopers in the driveway. We very much enjoyed the historic pieces around the home and the railroad theme. We plan to return!

Beautiful Historic Home

We came to Bryson City to celebrate my Mother-In-Law’s 90th birthday, with a train ride to the Nantahala Outdoor Center. The Bryson City Farmhouse was the perfect home for our son, his wife & 2 children, ages 21 & 14 to stay at during our family gathering on the Great Smokey Mountain Railway. The home was very neat, clean, decor was perfect & just a short walk from the train depot. They absolutely loved the home, with all its unique history. Thank you all!
