About this cabin rental

Settle into this one-of-a-kind riverbend vacation cabin near Black Mountain, NC, perched at the headwaters of the pristine Broad River in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Leave the world behind in this secluded natural paradise — private, peaceful, and just minutes from the best of Western North Carolina. You are within 25-35 minutes of Asheville, the Biltmore Estate, Black Mountain, Montreat, Hendersonville, Chimney Rock, and Lake Lure so you can disconnect, but also have gigabit fiber internet available if you need to stay connected.

Turn onto the tree-lined, hidden driveway and the Broad River comes into view, curving gently in front of the home. The river winds down the mountain through a lush canopy of dogwood, hemlock, and black walnut across the 2½-acre property. Hummingbirds put on an endless show at the two porch feeders with occasional cameo appearances by critters such as groundhogs who could easily be mistaken for a misplaced plushie. Surrounded by woods and wildlife, the river is your only visible neighbor.

Take in the sights and sounds of the river from the rocking chairs, porch swing, or dining table for four on the full-length porch. Wander down to the overlook deck for a closer view, or all the way to the river's edge. Cool your feet, sun yourself on a granite outcropping, or cast a line for native trout. Above all, relax and let routine stress melt away. Great for families.

Special Features:

Three cozy bedrooms, each with its own adjustable ductless AC/heating unit: Queen, Queen, and two Twins
Spacious main living/dining room with seating for 10, also with ductless AC/heating
Cozy breakfast/game room with a comfortable futon for extra flexibility
Puzzles, games, and a dartboard in basement.
Two full bathrooms, equally accessible from all bedrooms — one with a walk-in shower

Folding camp and reclining chairs
Lightweight spinning and spincasting rods/reels, with assorted trout tackle typically on hand
Everything you need for a comfortable, carefree stay — linens, towels, full assortment of cooking utensils, washer and dryer

The house was beautiful and so was the view. It was nice and cool while we were there. My advice to anyone packing to go there though they should take warm clothes and cool clothes. But only because of the weather not the house. It was very cozy, warm and inviting. I love the windows and especially the birdfeeder outside of the window. I hope to get to go again.

Our entire family enjoyed our stay at this Broad River cabin. We walked in and immediately liked the vibe. The cabin has a modern decor and the furniture was comfy. The cozy blankets were bonus! The bird feeders are great and we enjoyed watching the hummingbirds and cardinals. The kitchen had everything that we needed to easily prepare each meal. The access to the river was easy and my guys enjoyed fishing and exploring the river while my daughter and I chilled out in the swing. The location of the cabin made it easy to explore western NC area. We went for a hike at Catawba Falls, we went tubing in Asheville, and went into Black Mountain for the 4th of July festivities. Our entire family gave our stay 5 out of 5 stars!

Overall awesome location and property, but due to excessive rain the mildew smell in the house is strong. The property owner is doing all that is possible to combat the moisture and mildew in the house but if anybody in your family is hyper sensitive to not stay here as it w ill ruin your tripi ended up sleeping on the couch and my daughter is extremely congested. Again, this is no fault of the property owner.
