Had a wonderful time!! Convenient location to anything we wanted to do, and once we returned to the cottage it was peaceful and relaxing. Enjoyed it so much already planning on a return visit!!
Our trip to North Carolina was great. We planned our location because of the proximity to Asheville and Johnson City TN to visit with family in both locations. The VRBO was peaceful along the river and was a great location for us.
Rivers Edge home is a great place to stay ! Very comfortable, quiet, and well supplied kitchen. Easy access to great hiking, fishing . Highly recommend.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this location this past weekend and the host was very accommodating and kind! The view on the porch was amazing and so relaxing. The house felt cozy like home and had all the accommodations that I needed. I definitely look forward to staying here again and next time when it's warmed up so I can hop in the river.
we had a great time at River Edge the cottage is very nicely equipped the view from the deck is superb and so peaceful!!! the North Carolina Mountains are wonderful.
we cannot wait to go back!!
Thank you
The property was very clean and in a great location between Mount Mitchell & Celo/Burnsville & Spruce Pine. It had a fenced in yard & private access to the river which was AMAZING! The property management team was communicative during the entire stay as well. We will definitely be back soon!
The best thing about this house was the river! Loved sitting on the deck enjoying the river. House was very clean. Noise from the road was disconcerting— cars fly down that road. Regardless of the noise, still enjoyed the stay.
This property by the river was truly the perfect relaxing get away. The house was tidy and clean. The blankets smelled like they had just come out of the dryer! We loved this little house and loved that it was right by the river for easy swimming access and fishing. Communication with the owner was a 10.
This place was just what we were looking for. We especially appreciated the fenced property so our dog didn't have to be leashed!! We had the most relaxing time. The shade, river, privacy, peace was EXCEPTIONAL! We DEF plan on returning! THANK YOU!
Lovely property; close to waterfalls and the parkway
We enjoyed our stay tremendously. The River’s Edge Cabin had a lovely view on both sides of the property. It was in close proximity to the parkway, waterfalls, etc. Burnsville, Spruce Pines, and Micaville were all fun places to venture. The river in the backyard can’t be beat. The only downside is the road is super close and people go extremely fast on highway 80 on that particular stretch. I’d recommend this property for folks with older children only. The gates do lock well but it is still a bit nerve racking with young children. The home was well stocked and was great for a week away. The host was also very responsive.
The Ideal Writer's Retreat: Quiet, Comfortable, and Dog-Friendly
If you're looking for a spot that hits the sweet spot between seclusion and comfort, this riverfront cabin nails it. Perfect for those of us dragging along our laptops and our dogs, the place offers up high-speed Wi-Fi, warm, sunny days, cool nights, and a fully fenced-in yard—ideal for both productivity and relaxation.
The timing couldn't be better if you aim for a writer's retreat during the shoulder season; it's like you've got the whole area to yourself. The cabin's layout is practical and straightforward: an open floor plan, a mudroom for stashing dog bowls and muddy boots, plus a laundry area. The kitchen's equipped with what you need for a stay — just a heads-up, there's no traditional oven, but a convection microwave and a slow cooker fill in just fine.
Sleeping arrangements are cozy, with two bedrooms that share a bathroom. It might seem tight, but the shower's surprisingly roomy and well-stocked. The real standout, though, is the back deck. It overlooks the river, where the sound of running water from small "rapids" nearby is a constant backdrop. They've recently improved the path to the riverbank, making it easy to enjoy up close.
Honestly, it's a place I'd return to without a second thought. Great for getting away, getting work done, or just getting some peace with your pups by your side.
Property deck right over South Toe River and water was crystal clear. Crystal, do you hear me?
We went tubing in the water and went on local day trips to Mt Mitchell and hiking to see Roaring Fork Falls (not a bad hike, Grandma was able to do but bring a chair& a walking stick if traveling with grandparents!)) and of course went to Emerald Village Museum and did gem mining. Do not believe Google and try to see Roaring spout falls, that is on private property but at least homeowners were good sports! Weather cooperated most of the week so that was nice too!
80 is a busy road but the river drowned out traffic sounds. Really liked the deck & steps down to firepit & river(lots of railing, thanks! Mother nature visits with deer, chipmunks, hummingbirds & ducks. Lots of local artists to see wares and plenty of local antiquing/consignment places to chose from.
Mayland Earth to sky planetarium is a good visit, is one of the 3 'dark sky' locations in nc (didn't know that in the slightest)..look them up online and buy tickets in advance..is a really good program too, the peeps there truly love what they do and it shows!
Maples is an awesome place to get a coffee & sweet knosh and you mos def need to go to Pig & Grits in Burnsville (if there had been anything left on my plate, i would have licked it!).
Micaville Outpost is a lovely shop to see local art and any missing hiking supplies!
Management was very quick about answering any questions/very helpful.
Was a lovely stay!
Enjoyed our stay by the river. This is an older home with some modern updates. The fence in the front yard was much appreciated but the property is still rather close to a very busy highway. The backyard is very nice by the river with access.
