About this property
CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE - HURRICANE HELENE
Welcome to C & G's Rocky Broad River Cabin - the longest 'family owned' rental property in Bat Cave. One step onto our back porch and you'll be "hooked"!!! Remodeled in 2010, the porch boasts over 300 sq. ft. of screened-in space which is a great extension of the living area of the cabin. Here, you can rest, relax, read, or even take a nap while listening to the river in complete "bug-free" comfort. Better yet, start your morning with breakfast on the porch; lunch and dinner work equally as well. There is seating for 6 at the table but with all this space, more can be included.
Originally purchased by my grandfather in 1947, we have owned the house since 1987 and now it will be passed down to our grandchildren, Carson and Gabby Kincaid. Since starting this ad, Carson is now 12 years old and Gabby is 7. Both enjoy playing in the river and exploring!!
We have completely remodeled the upstairs (downstairs not yet available) and have updated all utilities and living spaces. Practically everything is new - granite counter tops, cabinets, bathroom, wiring, and plumbing.
Come stay with us and experience a new level in Mountain Luxury!!

We really enjoy this place! It was super clean, had everything we needed and is located close to activities, shopping and restaurants.
The sound of the river in the back of the property was magical!
We will definitely be back,

This property was so peaceful and relaxing right on the river! Just minutes away from town and so cozy! The screened in back porch was our favorite! Thank you for sharing your place with us .
Wonderful stay! Homeowners really took extra care in providing everything needed for a family to enjoy a much needed vacation! We spent the majority of our time on the amazing porch...even during some great thunderstorms! Would definitely stay again!
This was the perfect, relaxing getaway that our family needed. Convenient location to Chimney Rock. We spent most of our time on the spacious screened in deck just listening to the river. It was wonderful!

Great place! Great homeowners! Very nice and helpful about the local area.
Loved that the property was on the river. It was super fun to go out back and try to fish. The cabin was very clean, well decorated and very comfortable. Good location to go see the surrounding sights.

Amazing stay, extraordinary owners!
My family stayed at Carson's Cabin over Labor Day weekend. The place was beautiful, and the view was spectacular. The owners were extremely proactive in their communication, and provided valuable information about local businesses and other attractions. Would love to come back again!!

Lovely Cabin
Just a lovely, well-appointed and remodeled cabin. It is centrally located to Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, Hendersonville and Asheville. Probably our favorite VRBO property so far! We will certainly visit again! Thank you for sharing Carson's Cabin!
The process was seamless, the cabin was lovingly restored and immaculate. The location was a great jumping-off point for trips to hiking trails, breweries, Asheville and Hendersonville trips. As others have said, the ample and well furnished back porch with the sound of the river was the highlight.
We've stayed all over the Bat Cave/Chimney Rock/Lake Lure area for years. This may have been the best place we've stayed (for a small group). Right on the river, beautiful trees, great location, and FANTASTIC back porch! House is 100% updated, comfy beds, great kitchen etc... Nothing to knock here! Great place!
This was my first time to Asheville and it was an amazing experience staying in this cute little mountain town Bat cave/chimney rock! The cabin was everything we expected from the pictures and the descriptions. It was so cute and the enclosed porch overlooking the river was just amazing! It is cozy and clean. The property managers were so friendly and answer questions quickly and in depth I would highly recommend this place!
It was a nice cabin. Looked just like the pictures! Someone put a lot of work and effort into the remodel especially the wood work! Just beautiful. Only drawback was the parking. Not much at all. But it was conveniently located to all the attractions and restaurants nearby.
Really nice, quaint house with a warm gas fireplace. Wonderful sound from river in the back with fire pit. Only complaint is too soft a mattress in bedroom next to kitchen and cable tv in living room a problem intermittently. Hosts were quite helpful though

Comfy Clean Cabin on the River
This cabin was our 2nd choice - the first being already booked for our weekend. Thank goodness for that because i can't imagine a better place for us. We are a family of 4 with two boys aged 4 & 6. And for us this cabin was perfect. First it was very clean - the pictures i don't think do it justice. The rooms are all very functional. The kitchen is roomy - very cute and very well functional. The two bedrooms were perfect for us - our boys shared one bed (easy at their age) and My wife and I found the other bed to very comfortable. The tv room is perfect for passing a little time at the end of the day....
But by far the star of this property is the screened in porch. Other than sleeping we spent the majority of our time out there..listening to the river..even on a warm day the fans keep the porch very comfortable.
Great location for us - we spent two days in Lake Lure / Chimney Rock area - could ask for a more convenient location.
My husband and I had a lovely time staying in this older cabin. This is a house on the banks of the Rocky Broad River; the upstairs of the house has been renovated for rental. The vibe here is "laid back nice" with a roomy kitchen that's well equipped. We spent most of our time in the recliners on the large porch at the back, reading and listening to the river. The cathedral ceiling on the porch and fans helped us be comfortable for all but the hottest parts of the days during this summer visit during a heat wave with high humidity (heat index 104 degrees). We appreciated the varnished wood floors and variety of lighting. The custom cabinetry which makes maximal use of space in the bathroom & closet added to its appeal. Everything was very clean. Parking space for 2 cars max is in front of the cabin, just off the road. The hosts are very helpful and responsive; they provided an accurate idea of what we we're going to find. The cabin is small but well laid-out; my 5-star rating is applicable to this size cabin, not on a scale with huge new elaborate rentals. We like to live simply, so it was perfect for us.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. My friend nick named it Cozy Toes Cabin. It was just the perfect place to stay and see the beauty of the fall leaves. The porch is fabulous with a lovely flowing river behind the house. It was wonderful to hear the river as we had our morning coffee. Woould definitely stay again!
Our stay was wonderful at Carson’s Cabin! The atmosphere was pleasant and relaxing. We all enjoyed our time here. Everything was as pictured and delightful. The river behind the cabin was nice to listen to!
This cabin was perfect for a getaway. It's a few minutes from hiking and food at Chimney Rock, and about 30 minutes from Asheville and Hendersonville. The back patio is wonderful with the Broad River running behind the property. Both bedrooms have glass doors looking out towards the river. And the remote-controlled fireplace was perfect at the end of the day. Thanks!!
