About this house rental
Summary:
Cottage on the Tuckasegee River with firepit, picnic area, hot tub, & AC
The Space:
Set on almost a half-acre, this stilted river cottage is the perfect getaway! Just a few feet from the Tuckasegee River but also close to town, this retreat is perfect for groups looking to get a real sense of the mountain atmosphere. Walk just a half-mile into Dillsboro to shop, dine, or canoe the river. Trails also fill the area for hiking and exploring the surrounding mountains.
The thoughtful orientation of this modest-sized cabin keeps the river-song in your ears and heart. Guests can use the hot tub on the front deck, the outdoor firepit (bring your own firewood), and the covered picnic shelter. Inside, you'll find a compact, but full kitchen as well as a main bedroom with a large TV with surround sound speakers.
This home also includes central heating and air-conditioning. Things to know Cell and GPS services are limited in this area. This property is managed by VueStay Vacations.

We found our stay to be prefect! Everything was better than expected! We came just wanting a quiet getaway in nature... and left with some of the best memories I've ever made.

We loved the location of the cabin. The covered porch on the back was great. The covered shelter by the river was also very nice. We also enjoyed a fire each night and the steps down to the river was wonderful.

Great trip for my husband, my son, and I. Cabin was perfect in both size and location for us to trout fish all day, every day from the yard. Truly enjoyed it. The best part was the location of the cabin and that it was right on the water.

This house is old, and it feels it: creaky, drafty, and tight fits throughout (bigger folks will NOT enjoy the toilet). Access to the river, the view from the upper deck, and the quiet area made the house issues more bearable, but we will not be back.
