Enter a world of country charm with relaxing views and amazing sunsets when you make a trip to ‘Grinder Switch’, a 2-bedroom, 1-bath vacation rental, close to Bryson City, Harrah’s Casino, and Blue Ridge Parkway. Although the location is great, this home is also secluded as it sits on 200 park-like acres with hiking trails in Settler’s Mountain. You’ll be able to use the community rec room and pavilion, in addition to the already incredible private decks and fire pit, teeming with birds.

Very nice cabin. Plenty of space for a full size family. Good spot near shops and Polar Express train ride. It had everything you needed to cook with and accommodate a big family. The price for our stay was very reasonable for our time and the size of our family! Would definitely recommend these cabins to anyone that would like to visit this area!
Great place to stay
My family gives Grinder Switch #4 a 10 out of 10! The owner (Kevin) was exceptionally attentive to our needs. The cabin was fully equipped with everything we needed, even a crock pot and hair dryer :) We bravely took the Jack Rabbit Run hiking trail (ages from 4-64) and it was a true education for the little ones. The location was close to town and easy to get to. We soaked in the culture of Cherokee and climbed the stairs to see Mingo Falls. The view of the ice cycles and flowing stream was breathtaking. We would love to come back again and stay longer. There was so much to do and so little time.
Thanks for a great adventure themed getaway,
The Runge Family
This was our second time staying at Grinders Switched and it was just as amazing as the first. Quiet and quaint little cabin perfect for a relaxing get away. Definitely will be back!
