RIVERFRONT Retreat with HOT TUB on Nantahala River

RIVERFRONT RETREAT WITH HOT TUB ON THE NANTAHALA RIVER.

This home away from home is one of the few privately owned properties in the Nantahala Gorge just outside the National Forest. Our mountain retreat sleeps six guests comfortably with two bedrooms with a primary bathroom attached to the main bedroom and a guest bathroom. Outside HOT TUB. The kitchen and living room areas are open and spacious. It is like living in a tree house with a view of the river. If you are looking for the most unique location in one of the most beautiful river settings you will ever
find, this place is for you.

Lots of things to do at our River House Retreat. Fish from the bank, watch the rafters and boaters float by. Enjoy the night sky and river at night by the fire pit and relax with a cool beverage by the river. If that is not enough excitement, how about a white water raft ride down the Nantahala River, and stop off at your own private retreat for a half way break or just relax on the covered porch and watch the river pass by. The property address is 14540 Highway 19 Bryson City NC.
During your stay at this cabin, you're just a quick walk from Nantahala National Forest. Enjoy features like laundry facilities. Free WiFi and a private pool are available in the cabin.

Fantastic place for the river enthusiast and lovers of the great outdoors. House caters to those who love to sit and watch the river go by rain or shine. We enjoyed the outdoor space for hanging hammocks and playing corn hole. The host communicated promptly and addressed any issues. This was our third visit to this property and will not be our last

Incredible views on the river

The views from the porch, hot tub, and fire pit were incredible.. just what we were looking for. The house was in a perfect location and close to the NOC. We would definitely love to come back. And the host was very responsive ion any questions.

Great setting.

House is dated but its clean, beds were great. The hot tub kept losing water so it didn't want to stay hot unless people got in to get the water level high enough, my guess is because some of the jets would sometimes start shooting water out of the tub. The river and views were great. would loved to have used the fire pit but it was raining.

Beautiful location, challenges for older adults

We absolutely loved our stay on the river in this cabin, with the hot tub 20 ft from the river and the fire pit right on the river's edge. It is rustic outside, but comfortable inside, especially the king-sized bed. The reason for our visit to Bryson City was to ride the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, and we had the added benefit of waving to the train as it passed by 4 times a day. We had a few challenges, in that there are no accommodations like grab bars in either bathroom. The stairs are sturdy to get up to the cabin, but there's a big step from the ground to the first platform, and nothing easy to grab onto. For many, it isn't a problem, I'm sure, but some consideration needs to be given with those who have a few limitations. We'd stay again, just for the location, but it's good to have the potential problems known when making a choice.

Family Fun Trip

The house was just as it is advertised. Everything we needed to have a wonderful stay. We enjoyed this covered porch, hot tub, and fire pit. My husband and son fished before the dam released each morning. We saw an otter early one morning on the opposite bank. We rafted with the NOC, hiked the Deep Creek Trail, and floated on the Fingerlake. So much fun! Too short of a trip! We also ate at 4Queens Mexican Grill in Bryson City. It was delicious!!

Cozy, comfortable, place on the river

My family & I visited in Mid October for the weekend. We had booked the Nantahala Gorge Excursion for my birthday. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and drinking coffee in the morning while listening to the river. In the evenings, on the river bank, we sat around a cozy little fire after relaxing in the hot tub. The owner was very responsive and friendly. We had a great stay and will book again.

Nice and cozy

The house was nice. The hot tub was awesome. Couldn’t use the fire pit because there was nothing there to light it with. There was no outside lights on the stair side to see how to get in. Checked every light switch I could find but they didn’t work the outside floodlights. The ice maker in the refrigerator never made any ice. We was suppose to wash up the dishes we used but there was no dish soap had to go get some. Loved the location on the river it was great and so was the view. Enjoyed our stay even with the minor problems.

Gorgeous Nantahala views

We had an awesome time exploring Bryson city and gazing at the beautiful Nantahala. The cabin is very clean and perfectly cozy. The views of the full moon over the river were breathtaking and the sun on the water in the morning was so peaceful. Would’ve liked having a dishwasher but we didn’t cook during our two night stay and used paper plates to keep the mess low. We also loved the really nice hot tub with views of the water. We will definitely be back.

Great Location, Needs Work

The location is right on the river and surrounded by beauty. It's a nice home with comfy beds. Some things I expect were not right. No Wi-Fi connection for our cell phones. Missing lights over the mirrors in both bathrooms, exterior lights not working, VERY limited kitchen/cooking items that are common in rentals. No dishsoap, no soap for showers, no light in fridge, no seasonings, no coffee fixings. Would only recommend if you plan to buy EVERYTHING at the grocery store yourself.

Nice location with amazing view, but very rustic

This house has an amazing porch view and great location. It has the essentials for a camp and the hot tub was great. It could use a little more attention to detail. There were spiderwebs throughout the house, multiple lights were out, both toilet paper dispensers were broken and linens were kind of limited. The location to NOC and BC we’re great and being right on the river was nice. It worked for our short stay.

Perfect location!

We enjoyed our stay in this cute home by the river! Location was perfect and just as described. Only downfall was having to take your trash with you when you leave, which is fine, but would have been nice to have a little more information on where we could take it vs driving home for 3 hours with smelly trash in the car.
