Bryson and cherokee are filled with short term rentals. Batcave and chimney rock are still a mess and rather remote I swear it seems like I’ve been looking forever On 5/19/2026 at 7:44 PM, Maggie Valley Steve said: Unfortunately we experienced investors swoop in during COVID and establish near 500 new properties for short term rentals. It killed the year round local hosts and certainly Helene didn't help. That said we're getting booking frequently now, perhaps we've turned a corner. They’re everywhere. Even here. Anything close to affordable and decent is being bought by investment companies before anyone can get their offer in. It’s rough sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
