Anniversary

We had a very relaxing stay at this property! The rocking chairs on the front porch were the place to be. Be advised there is no service out there, and if you want food you should stop on your way there. I wish we would have had more time there.

Great stay!

Exactly what I needed for my stay. Four day wedding at Sugar Hollow Retreat, which happened to be less than a mile from the location. East drive each day to and from. Loved the view of the river in the morning as well! Would highly recommend.

The Best!!

This was our second time to stay here. I’ve regretted not leaving a review the last time I was here. The owners saw we wouldn’t be there before dark and turned on the porch and house lights so we would be able to get in easier. The place is always spotless, the front porch views are fantastic, and Terry and Becky (the owners) are wonderful and care how about your stay. This place is a real gem!

Fantastic

Everything about our stay was wonderful!! Terry actually reached out to us to make sure we would be there before dark and if not he would turn in the lights for us, Becky’s cleaning is over the top and they provided everything imaginable in case you are forgetful like me =] we would absolutely come back again and again and definitely would recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area! The hosts were even so nice as to mail a toe ring to me that I had lost during our stay. Thank you so much for everything!! 💛😁

Terry is the man!!

The place is located in a perfect place to disconnect from life, but if you can't there is wifi that will keep you in touch sharing the amazing pictures of the beautiful landscape or the fireplace that the host have ready with masmelos to have a wonderful night. Everything you need to feel comfortable and homey. Close to the sky resorts making the winter getaway perfect. Thank you for sharing this place with us!!

River Retreat you just can't beat.

Took the family on a "winter" vacation, and was not disappointed one bit. The river was peaceful and the scenery was amazing. We stayed here and went to Appalachian Ski Mountain. We enjoyed a fire with wood supplied by host. Terry was very inviting and informative. Can't wait to book the new vrbo when its done!
