About this cabin rental
Great news the campground is under new ownership with new amenities. A hot tub, fire pit and playground have been added for guests to enjoy. There are also new bathrooms and a laundromat. New for us, there is no cleaning fee, so the price is what you see.
We are on the Tuckasegee River a mile from downtown. We would be considered a tiny home or park model cabin. Guests have said it is big enough for your family of 4 to not feel cramped. Located in the Great Smoky Mountains, we are close to hiking, rafting, tubing, and kayaking. You'll feel right at home if you enjoy any of these activities, or just want to relax and enjoy the river view. Fishing from the deck is definitely a plus. Our quaint little town has been voted one of the top 10 small towns to visit with local breweries and The Great Smoky Mtn Railroad.
The space
Convenient river access near by makes it your Fisherman's Dream.. A maximum of 4 guests is our policy. NO MORE!
The bedroom has a queen size bed and plenty of storage. The other sleeping space is an open loft with headroom only, great for kids or young teens. It has a full size bed mattress and is accessible by ladder only. The LR has a pull out sofa in case you can't climb the ladder to the loft. :) Linens are provided free of charge for your stay. We just ask that remove them before leaving. After all if you had to bring your own , you would remove them. Thank you in advance we appreciate your understanding.
A galley kitchen is well stocked with all the pots and pans, dishes, glasses and utensils you will need to prepare and enjoy your meals. you need to bring your spices, oil etc, as well as your paper products, including garbage bags,and dish soap. There is enough to get you started. The coffee pot is a combination pot/pod. Coffee filters are provided for the regular full size coffee pot.
The bathroom has a tub/shower combo.Towels are provided free of charge for you stay. One set per person. That consists of 1 bath towel, 1 hand towel, 1 washcloth. If you don't use a towel more than once, you need to bring your own. Thank you for understanding.
Kids love feeding the ducks & geese with food provided in the feed box on the covered deck. Fishing from the deck is an added bonus

You have access to the entire Cabin. It is located in the Bear Hunter Campground, although you're not really there for the campground, but it does have amenities now, since it under new ownership.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
*We are pet friendly (dogs only) with prior approval. A $50 non refundable fee per pet is due on arrival in cash. Pets must be crated when you are out.
The pet fee is for allowing pets to visit. It is to compensate for all the extra cleaning that is takes. It is not a damage fee. If your pet does damage because it has not been crated or watched, you will be requested to pay for the damage.
*Please be honest if you break something. If something is missing or damaged I will turn it in to AIRBNB/VRBO and request payment for it.
Please care for our place and things like you care for your own or better. We try hard to provide for our guests and appreciate your understanding.

We had a short but nice 2 night stay in the early fall. We slept comfortably and enjoyed waking up with the river right beside us. The cabin is nicely decorated and well stocked to cook if you prefer. You can fish right off the deck.
