We LOVE Bryson City! We love the mountains and this town! Bryson City Outdoors not only has a wide selection in gear they offer services to aide in your outdoor experience while in Bryson City. Last year my best friend and I wanted to take a shot at SUP for the first time. They have a team member that drives to Fontana Lake with the boards and you can rent one from them. This service was great b/c we didnât have to worry about finding a way of getting the boards to the location...meet, rent, ride, return...awesome! (not required but, gift the team member with a tip, if you can). On our way there we got turned around so, we called the store for directions...Liz answered and was very helpful in getting us redirected and where we needed to be. She & I, also, ate outside the store from one of the several different food trucks they regularly have. My husband and I stopped in the store this trip. Brett & another employee were working. They were welcoming, kind & generous. The store is well laid out and chock full of popular name brand outdoor merchandise, walls of great t-shirts & trucker hats and a fav of mine, stickers! They even carry hand poured soy candles (made by Modern Forestry) with several scents made for the outdoor enthusiasts. Bryson City Outdoors (BCO) is more than just your outdoor store itâs a hub in this great community to bring its members & visitors together. Thank you BCO for ALL you do! Until next...

   Read moreI very rarely handout five stars but this place was pretty cool. Located right next to the Cherokee visitor center which is very convenient as you can stop in both places at one time. I had met Jeremy the trail boss at fire Mountain mountain bike trails and he told me about this place. Said I could get food at the food truck and a nice cold beverage and a beer inside as well as bicycle gear and other outfitting accoutrements. This place is also dog friendly so bring your pup in with you. A nice patio out behind the shop that overlooks the River. So head out here with your beer and your Chow and enjoy the view. And if you got really hot for mountain biking there's a little trail that will take you right into the river we can cool off and invigorate yourself. Also right across the street is the veterans Park which was really cool. Some old artillery guns as well as a tank. So go visit Bryson City outdoors it is...
