When you're ready leave the cozy porch of your Bryson City NC cabin rentals, a visit to Tom Branch Falls on the Deep Creek Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a great way to start off the day!

One of three waterfalls on the Deep Creek trail, Tom Branch Falls is the easiest to access.  In fact it's one of the most easy to reach waterfalls you'll ever find!

The trail to Tom Branch begins at the Deep Creek Trailhead parking area, and is an old road bed, making it both wide and relatively smooth.  Deep Creek itself is on your right as you walk, and you have only to walk just 1000 feet to arrive at the viewing area for the falls! 

Settle yourself on one of the large, high-backed benches placed there for your enjoyment and gaze across Deep Creek at the rocky waterfall spilling into the cool waters.  Tom Branch is tall - 80 feet - and it drops in a lovely series of various sized-steep-steps into Deep Creek.  In the summer, you'll likely see tubers floating past, but in the fall, you'll see the creek in a calmer state.  It a great place to sit back and enjoy restful moments of Carolina mountain vacations.
