This was our 2nd time staying at this house and we love it! Plenty of room and the river makes for a beautiful, peaceful setting!My only complaint this time is that we never had WiFi. I called and spoke to someone Sat morning. She was going to send someone out. They never came. I texted numerous times that evening and Saturday and they just kept saying they would update me, and no one ever came to look at it and nothing was done. Phone reception there is spotty so depending on hot spot was not great.

We had an absolutely wonderful time on our mountain vacation! The location of the house was convenient to several nearby towns but far enough out of the hustle and bustle. The sound of the river that could be heard out on the deck was amazing and we loved having the ability to tube right in our backyard. We fished, went rafting, played a lot of board games, and had a great getaway as a big family. This house provides plenty of space and as a bonus has a bathroom for nearly every bedroom. We can't wait to book again for next year!

Great spot for a family gathering. Loved the deck overlooking the river. Private space for each couple.

We loved everything about Tuckaway Retreat! There was plenty of room for our extended family to spend time together. We loved the huge deck overlooking the river and the three floors to spread out on. Our teens loved the first level with their own kitchen. The bedrooms don’t have TV’s so they set up their Xbox down there. The main floor is the 2nd floor and is spacious for everyone to play games or watch movies cook dinner etc. The third floor has the twins bedroom and a queen bedroom but also has a roomy loft space for reading or working. We loved fishing and tubing the Tuckaseegee right from the house - we would leave a car and take out at the Webster church river access. We loved being so close to Sylva, Dillsboro and Cullowhee. Such a beautiful area to explore! Easy access to GSMNP, Franklin, Cherokee, and all of the Ruby Mines in the area. We would absolutely rent this house again and look forward to coming back!
